Thomas Duncan - The Waefu' Heart (1841)
Anne Page Inviting Slender to Dinner
Artist: Thomas Duncan (Scottish, 1807-1845)
Date: 1836
Medium: Oil on panel
Collection: National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh, Scotland
Description
This painting was Duncan’s first to be exhibited at the Royal Academy in London. He chose a scene from Shakespeare’s ‘Merry Wives of Windsor’ (1602), presumably to appeal to an English audience. Anne Page is an eligible bride whom Slender has been persuaded to court by his cousin Shallow, although Slender is not in fact particularly interested in marrying her. Here, Anne dutifully invites Slender to join their group and dine on venison pie, but the shy and uncouth Slender tries to evade the awkward invitation. Duncan has twisted Slender’s figure, capturing his awkwardness and lack of sophistication compared to the charming relaxed figure of Anne. Her loyal dog, ignoring the huge pie behind him, senses Slender’s indifference towards his mistress, and blocks his passage into the house.

Yesterday, Thomas Duncan, the Liberian man who was diagnosed with Ebola, passed away in a Dallas hospital. That news was followed by a chorus of people blaming racism for Duncan’s death.
Does Geraldo Rivera agree?

Yep. Obama’s lips were moving during his speech to Northwestern University today, so out came the absurd claims, lies and childish Fox News sneering. Predictable.
