Oh, a colleague of mine just wrote her PhD dissertation on this!

This is the Grave of Maria Magdalena Langhans by Johann August Nahl. Nahl was hosted by the pastor and his pregnant 28yo wife Maria Magdalena when she died during childbirth. Moved by this, he decided, by himself and without being commissioned to do so by anyone to make this grave for her. It became a huge place of pilgrimage for the next 150 years.

The elegant silks wrapped around her [...] had its dye freshly intact; brilliant blues that faded into soft shades of orange and peach with a matching obi, the long swinging sleeves embroidered and painted with intricate patterns of wisterias dangling over pairs of mandarin ducks swimming on a stream.

I was about 22-3 when I fell for the Avengers in 1990 when A&E started showing the series. I'm currently 56. But you are 100% correct and Chris Carter is on record saying he modeled Mulder and Scully's relationship after Steed and Emma. IMO though Duchovny and Anderson'a chemistry does not compare to Patrick and Diana's because there are no two other people who's chemistry can match theirs. Your mileage may vary.

Had other plans for art and then I see this on Pinterest... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

my favorite thing about Mizu is that she's playful at heart and is unintentionally goofy

[historynerd1945]

She's trying to be stoic but she's actually a big goofball and if that isn't me idk who is lol
