The Bridge of the Archbishop and the Apse of Notre-Dame

Artist: Armand Guillaumin (French, 1841-1927)

Date: ca. 1880

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid, Spain

Description

The Archbishop's palace, which rose on the river bank near the cathedral, was destroyed in 1831. Only the bridge kept its name. Formed by three stone arches, it was opened in 1828, the day of the feast of Charles X. This bridge had the characteristic of opening onto the entrance to the Morgue, transferred in 1864 to its north end, where it remained until 1923. The bodies of those who had died in prison, in the street, or had drowned, were taken there.

Happy Halloween and last day of Filipino American History Month! I made a romance-style cover with a Fil-Am vampire. He loves garlic, holy crosses don't faze him, and he's ready for any kind of thirst. 🧛 👅 In my previous comic and thread, I analyzed the history of vampire lore and depictions, and how the vampire transformed from villain to hero over time. It should come as no surprise that what began as an Orientalist concept has never benefited Asian men. The similarities between Fu Manchu and Dracula reveal how monoracial Asian men are Orientalized as monstrous, repulsive, and a sexual threat to white women. That's why I wanted to take power back and directly subvert such racist imagery with this cover. Bigots who hate Asian men will argue desirability in media is toxic or frivolous. It's not. Media affects real life. Asian men are so dehumanized and vilified that hate crimes against us have been institutionally hidden—with no outcry or correction. On an artistic note, this was one of the most fun pieces I've worked on. Romance novels get a lot of undeserved hate (because women read and write them), but I enjoyed  throwing myself into this world. And the art on old-school covers is amazing, which definitely inspired me. (Please don’t repost or edit my art. Reblogs are always appreciated.)

Adventures in Childhood Mischief

(6th of a Series) I was mischievous as a young kid. Did lots of crazy stunts then. Nothing destructive really, but mostly self-inflicted ‘atrocities’, I’d call it. At five years old, I decided I was going to be a culinary genius. I’d watched my Mama add patis – that’s salty fish paste – to almost everything, and was convinced it had to be the secret nectar of the gods. So, one afternoon after…

At last: Sisters At War pubs Monday Sept 25th

Out on Monday! Waiting in the wings for pub day… Butterflies dancing in my stomach… nerves Because the subject matter in my story comes from a real place in my life. Sexual assault. What will readers say? Will they come along on the journey? Should I have kept my secret like I have for such a long time? I don’t know… Hence the butterflies. Come back with me to Paris WW2. Sisters At War is…
