# Vladimir Ljotić

**Vladimir Ljotić** (Serbian Cyrillic: Владимир Љотић; 1846 – 27 July 1912) was a Serbian politician and diplomat who served as the Serbian government consul to Greece.

## Biography

He was born into the well-known Ljotić family in Smederevo. The family was loyal to the Karađorđević dynasty which is why Vladimir's father Dimitrije "Mita" had to emigrate from Serbia following the return to the throne of the Obrenović dynasty in 1858. While abroad, Dimitirje's father was the secretary of Prince Alexander Karađorđević. During this time, young Vladimir remained in Serbia and began studying law but after the assassination of Prince Mihailo Obrenović in 1868, he had to leave the country because of the unfavourable situation for the families loyal to the Karađorđević dynasty.

He continued studying law in Vienna. He took part in the founding of the United Serbian Youth in 1870. While abroad, he was in the socialist circles around Svetozar Marković. His socialist feelings in his youth are evident as he was the first to translate *The Communist Manifesto* into Serbian, published in 1871 in the newspaper *Pančevac*. He returned to Serbia after the abdication of King Milan I on 22 February 1889. When Sava Grujić formed a government led by the People's Radical Party in 1890, Ljotić became the Serbian consul in Thessaloniki. After his diplomatic service, he continued working in politics as the president of the Municipality of Smederevo and as a member of parliament. He was one of the deputies who in Geneva in 1903 publicly called on King Peter I to inherit the Serbian throne. From 1904 to 1909, he was again the consul in Thessaloniki.

He died on 27 July 1912 and is interred near the Serbian Orthodox church at the Smederevo Old Cemetery.

## Personal life

His eldest son Dimitrije Ljotić was a politician and ideologue who established the Yugoslav National Movement (Zbor) in 1935 and collaborated with German occupational authorities in the Territory of the Military Commander in Serbia during World War II. Dimitrije's son was named Vladimir after Vladimir Ljotić.

His younger son Jakov was assassinated in his apartment in Munich on 8 July 1974 by agents of the Yugoslav State Security Administration.

## Removal from office

On 2 November 2022, the interim Mangaung ANC Regional Executive Committee "recalled" Siyonzana over serious allegations of financial mismanagement, poor governance and lack of service delivery. The interim ANC Provincial Executive Committee soon followed suit with wanting Siyonzana to be removed as mayor. While speaking at the ANC Youth League Peter Mokaba Memorial Lecture in January 2023, newly elected ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula criticised Siyonzana, accusing him of "sleeping on the job". Siyonzana resigned from office on 6 March 2023 after the National Executive Committee of the African National Congress selected Gregory Nthatisi to replace him.

title: Iceland, California

abstract: Iceland, once known as Cuba, was an ice farming and lumbering community in eastern Nevada County, California. It was located between Boca, California and the Nevada state line, about 1 1/2 miles south of Floriston, California and 9 miles east of Truckee, California. It lay near where Gray Creek flows into the Truckee River. Iceland originated in 1867 as the Central Pacific Railroad's construction Camp 20. It was soon called Cuba, the name which persisted until 1897 when the new post office was named Iceland. After the Transcontinental Railroad came through eastern Nevada County, entrepreneurs built a number of ice ponds, usually by damming or diverting the Truckee River or one of its tributaries, around railroad stops such as Camp 20 and Boca. Ice harvesting began at Boca in 1868. A little later, Joseph Gray, one of Truckee's founders, built a lumber mill in Cuba. The creek is named after him. Gray dammed the creek and created an ice pond. In 1876, he leased his property to the People’s Ice Company. The Mountain Ice Company was also operating in Cuba. It encountered financial problems and was sold in 1882 at a constable's sale to satisfy a judgment against it. It reemerged under the leadership of Rod McLellan, who in 1885 built a new icehouse 18' high and 50' by 200'. Other ice harvesters in the area were the Union Ice Company, the National Ice Company, and the Floriston Ice Company. Winter ice at Iceland regularly exceeded 12 inches of thickness and the harvest often produced 15-25,000 tons of ice. The ice, insulated with sawdust, was shipped by rail around the country for use in iceboxes and was packed around fruit being shipped to eastern markets. The 1880 census listed 25 residents. During the winter ice harvesting season, the population would have swelled to well over 100. The town does not appear to have had a school, store or saloon. There were a number of ice warehouses and related structures. In addition to the rail connection, it was connected by road to Truckee, Boca and Floriston. The Sunset Telephone And Telegraph Company connected Iceland with Truckee. In 1897, Mary Dysart applied to open a post office to be called Iceland. Mary was the wife of David M. Dysart, Superintendent of the National Ice Company's Iceland facility. She mapped Iceland as just southeast of where Gray Creek enters the Truckee River. The post office was to be located about 150 feet from the Cuba railroad station, on the south side of the track. She reported the town's population as 75. In Beginning with Gray's mill, lumbering was the other major industry around Iceland. The Sierra Nevada Wood & Lumber Co. and the Iceland Wood and Lumber company were active in the area. By 1923, with the advent of ice-making machines and refrigerated rail cars, the ice industry came to a sudden end. The post office closed that year. Little of the ice harvesting industry remains visible, except for the remains of the dam across Gray Creek and some remains of ice pond walls.

# Thomas Gould (violinist)

**Thomas Gould** (born 1983) is a British violinist and the leader of Britten Sinfonia, as well as former leader of Aurora Orchestra. Gould is best known for his playing of the classical music repertoire although he also plays a six-string electric violin and has performed jazz at Ronnie Scott's. He has performed at the Royal Albert Hall, Barbican Centre and Royal Festival Hall in London, as well as Bridgewater Hall, Manchester Arena, Symphony Hall, Birmingham and National Indoor Arena.

## Early life and education

Gould was born in London in 1983. He lives in Camden, London and is the younger brother, by fifteen years, of Clio Gould, lead violinist with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. He studied with György Pauk at the Royal Academy of Music from the age of 16. He credits his sister with his choice of career, telling *The Daily Telegraph* in April 2011 "\[…\] it was inspirational, but more in a social than a musical way. Clio was always bringing these really lively, interesting people home to rehearse. It seemed an exciting life she was leading, and I wanted to do something similar."

## Career

Gould takes an eclectic approach to music, with Fiona Maddocks describing him in UK Sunday newspaper *The Observer* as, "\[…\] a top soloist, happy to tackle old or new in concert hall or tramshed with symphony orchestra or accordion".

In 2009, aged 25, he was elected Associate of the Royal Academy of Music.

In 2011, Gould toured with the Australian Chamber Orchestra as both soloist and guest director. In June of the same year, Decca Classics released the Aurora Orchestra's recording of Nico Muhly's *Seeing is Believing* on which Gould played a six-string electric violin made by John Jordan; the recording was voted the iTunes Contemporary Classical Album of the Year. He premiered Harrison Birtwistle's Oboe Quartet the same month.

His début with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, in 2012, was conducted by John Adams.

In February 2013, Gould busked at Westminster Underground Station in an attempt by the London *Evening Standard* to recreate *The Washington Post*'s Joshua Bell experiment of 2007.

In May 2013, Gould discussed his musical approach with Christopher Morely of the *Birmingham Post*, saying, "It was much later that I began to apply this knowledge to the violin, having always – wrongly – thought that the violin wasn’t a jazz instrument. Now I'm in the luxurious position of being able to get up and jam at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club having just played a recital at Wigmore Hall. But I'm definitely a classical violinist first and foremost. I think my classical playing has benefited massively from working with musicians outside classical music. If I wrote a list of great musicians I've been lucky enough to work with the list would include Brad Mehldau and Radiohead as well as more expected names like Sir Mark Elder and Sir Colin Davis. I think as long as I continue to be inspired by other genres then I will continue to be a genre-crossing violinist."

Writing in UK daily newspaper *The Guardian* in November 2014, Gould said,

> My own career is a fairly equal division between solo work and orchestral leading (with Aurora and Britten Sinfonia), with as much jazz and chamber music as time allows. I love the balance. I get to play pretty much the entire repertoire for the instrument, from Beethoven trios to Mahler symphonies to recording with Radiohead. I’m constantly playing new repertoire and working with new colleagues. That's an enormous privilege. It might mean feeling stressed at times for having multiple projects on the go simultaneously, but it means you never get that stagnant feeling of giving the umpteenth performance of the same concerto in a season. It makes it much easier to play in a way that's fresh, spontaneous and alive. If, as a performer, you enjoy what you are doing, then your audience will too.

Gould has performed as soloist and director with Sinfonietta Riga, with whom he recorded Beethoven's *Violin Concerto* and Ralph Vaughan Williams' *The Lark Ascending*. In addition to his classical performances, he was a member of the Man Overboard swing quintet until February 2016 (he retired saying that he is too busy with classical music, and was replaced by Fiona Monbet) and has worked with Radiohead, Rufus Wainwright and Sigur Rós.

## Characters

## Plot

12 May 1796, an inn at Tavazzano. After his victory at the Battle of Lodi, Napoleon eats his meal, works on his plans and talks with the innkeeper Giuseppe Grandi. A lieutenant arrives with bad news. The dispatches he was carrying have been stolen by a youth who tricked him out of them. Napoleon says he will be arrested for dereliction of duty. The lieutenant says he can hear the voice of the youth who tricked him. A woman appears. She says that the dispatches were stolen by her brother. Napoleon is unconvinced. He orders the lieutenant out, and tells the woman to hand over the dispatches. A battle of wits ensues between Napoleon and the woman, but she eventually concedes and hands over the documents. However, she says he should not read one of the documents. It is a letter claiming that Napoleon's wife Josephine has been having an affair with Paul Barras. If he is known to have read the letter, it will cause a duel. Napoleon, concerned about a public scandal, decides to pretend that the dispatches are still missing. He calls the lieutenant back, and tells him to go and find the missing documents or be court-martialled. To save the lieutenant from disgrace, the lady leaves and switches to her male disguise. As soon as she reappears, the lieutenant recognises the "brother" who robbed him. Pretending to have magical powers, she finds the dispatches in Napoleon's coat. Napoleon says he has been outwitted by an Englishwoman, and makes a series of comments about the English ability to constantly have things both ways ("As the great champion of freedom and national independence, he conquers and annexes half the world, and calls it Colonization"). He gives the woman the letter unopened; she burns it.

## Productions

The play was written for Ellen Terry and Richard Mansfield, but was first performed, on 1 July 1897, at the Grand Theatre, Croydon, with Murray Carson and Florence West in the principal roles. The play was the first Shaw work performed in the German language when it was given in a translation by Siegfried Trebitsch at the Schauspielhaus in Frankfurt on 20 April 1903. The play had its first radio broadcast on 20 April 1928, with Esme Percy as Napoleon.

A version aired on BBC television in 1939, and is believed to be lost.

A version of it aired on Australian television in 1963 and 1967.

An American television version was broadcast on 21 November 1973, with Stacy Keach as Bonaparte and Samantha Eggar as The Lady.

A radio production directed by Pat Trueman was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on 8 May 1980, with David Suchet as Napoleon and Paola Dionisotti as The Lady.

A BBC TV version was broadcast on 5 May 1981, with Simon Callow as Napoleon, Delphine Seyrig as The Lady and David Troughton as The Lieutenant.

title: Fifth Third Bancorp v. Dudenhoeffer

# Fifth Third Bancorp v. Dudenhoeffer

***Fifth Third Bancorp v. Dudenhoeffer***, 573 U.S. 409 (2014), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court found Employee stockownership (ESOP) fiduciaries have the same prudential duties as non-ESOP fiduciaries, as set by ERISA, except that they are not required to diversify their investments beyond shares of the employer's stock.

## Background

Fifth Third Bancorp, a large financial services company, maintained a defined contribution retirement plan / 401(k) (specifically an Employee stock ownership (ESOP)) for its employees. In September 2009, a group of its former employees and current 401(k) participants file a class action lawsuit against Fifth Third and its corporate officers (in their capacity as administrators of the 401(k)), alleging that they violated their ERISA-mandated fiduciary duty under ERISA. Specifically, the employees alleged that Fifth Third and its officers should have known that Fifth Third's stock was overvalued.

Per the complaint, the stock was overvalued due to the firm's involvement in risky subprime lending and that officers had made material misstatements about the company's financial prospects to inflate the value of the company's stock. The employees alleged that a prudent fiduciary acting in good faith stewards of the ESOP's assets should have taken steps to address this overvaluation or protect the plan participants from the risks. Instead, they continued to buy and hold Fifth Third stock until the market crashed in July 2007, wiping out over 3/4ths of the company's stock value and leaving the plaintiffs destitute.

## In lower courts

The lawsuit, which was filed in the Southern District Court of Ohio, was originally dismissed by that court. The District Court ruled that the 401(k) plan administrators were entitled to a 'presumption of prudence' with respect to their decision to continue buying and holding their own company's stock. The Sixth Circuit reversed the District Court, ruling that additional evidence would be needed before a court could rule on whether the 'presumption of prudence' should apply. Fifth Third appealed the Sixth Circuit's decision to the Supreme Court of the United States in December 2012.

## Supreme Court opinion

The Supreme Court vacated the Sixth Circuit's ruling and remanded the case back to the lower courts for further reconsideration. Writing for a unanimous court, Justice Stephen Breyer determined that administrators of ESOPs are not entitled to a special 'presumption of prudence' with respect to their decision-making. Rather, they are held to the same legal standard of care as any other fiduciary under ERISA. The Supreme Court accepted the petitioners' argument that allowing lawsuits against ESOP fiduciaries may discourage employers from offering ESOP plans in the first place (thus contravening Congress's intent), but resolved the dilemma by creating guidelines for lower courts to apply in future cases at the motion to dismiss stage.

# Filming Othello

***Filming Othello*** is a 1978 English-language West German documentary film directed by and starring Orson Welles about the making of his award-winning 1951 production *Othello*. The film, which was produced for West German television, was the last completed feature film directed by Welles, as well as the last one to be made during his lifetime.

## Synopsis

*Filming Othello* begins with Welles standing behind a moviola. He directly addresses the camera and announces: "This is to be a conversation, certainly not anything so formal as a lecture, and what we're going to talk about is *Othello*, Shakespeare's play and the film I made of it." Welles initially conducts a monologue where he recalls the events that lead up to the creation of *Othello* and some of the problems that plagued the production. As the film progresses, he switches to a conversation in a restaurant between himself and two of the film's co-stars, Micheal MacLiammoir (who played Iago) and Hilton Edwards (who played Brabantio). The three men talk at length about the making of *Othello*. Welles then resumes his monologue from his position behind the moviola. He then runs footage on the moviola of a question and answer session he conducted during a 1977 screening of *Othello* in Boston. Welles concludes the film in his position as a monologuist, proclaiming: "There are too many regrets, there are too many things I wish I could have done over again. If it wasn't a memory, if it was a project for the future, talking about *Othello* would have been nothing but delight. After all, promises are more fun than explanations. In all my heart, I wish that I wasn't looking back on *Othello*, but looking forward to it. That *Othello* would be one hell of a picture. Goodnight."

## Production

*Filming Othello* was made between 1974 and 1978. It was intended to be the first in a series of documentaries directed by Welles on the creation of his classic films. However, the second film in the proposed series, on the making of *The Trial*, was never completed.

*Filming Othello* was shot in 16mm, with Gary Graver as the cinematographer. Welles shot the footage of his conversation with MacLiammoir and Edwards in Paris, France, in 1974, and shot the footage of his part of their conversation two years later in Beverly Hills, California. Footage was also shot of Welles visiting Venice, Italy, but it was not included in the final print because it had been believed lost when Welles was moving around Europe. However, many years later, cinematographer Gary Graver located at least some of the footage, and short excerpts can be seen in his 1993 documentary *Working With Orson Welles*, in which Welles (theatrically clad in black cape and black hat) rides around Venice in a gondola pointing out old filming locations, while crowds wave at him.

The film includes a conversation with a Cambridge, Massachusetts audience after a screening of the film on 8 January 1977 at the 400-seat Cinema 1 inside the Orson Welles Cinema Complex. (Welles had starred in *An Evening With Orson Welles* the night before at Boston Symphony Hall.)

Some of Welles' *The Other Side of the Wind* crew—Gary Graver, Michael Stringer and Larry Jackson—worked on *Filming Othello*.

*Filming Othello* uses clips from *Othello*, but the footage is not accompanied by the film's dialogue track.

## Distribution

*Filming Othello* was first shown at the 1978 Berlin Film Festival. It was first screened in the U.S. in 1979 at the Public Theater in New York, where it played on a double bill with *Othello*. However, the film's presentation did not receive newspaper reviews. *Filming Othello* had no further U.S. screenings until it returned to New York in 1987 for an engagement at the Film Forum, a nonprofit cinema, and that presentation was acknowledged by Vincent Canby of *The New York Times* as "entertaining and revealing" and "full of priceless anecdotes."

*Filming Othello* was released on home video for the first time on 10 October 2017 by The Criterion Collection. It was included in DVD and Blu-ray sets featuring newly restored 4K digital transfers of both the 1952 European and 1955 U.S. versions of *Othello*.

* *Your Name Here* – a 2015 Canadian docufiction film directed by B. P. Paquette featuring dozens of amateur actors and that examines the art and craft of movie acting, and the desire for movie stardom.
* *Hello Cinema* – a 1995 Iranian docufiction film directed by Mohsen Makhmalbaf that shows various everyday people being auditioned and explaining their reason for wanting to act in a film.
* *Someone to Love* \- a 1987 pseudo-documentary directed by Henry Jaglom about a filmmaker who throws a Valentine's Day party at an old movie theater that is about to be demolished and then quizzes his guests on camera about their lives.
* *F for Fake* – the last major film completed by Orson Welles, who directed, co-wrote, and starred in the film, which is loosely a documentary that operates in several different genres and has been described as a kind of film essay.

title: Ferris-Hermsmeyer-Fenton Ranch

abstract: The Ferris-Hermsmeyer-Fenton Ranch, at 144 Duncan District Rd. in Sheridan, Montana, in Madison County, Montana, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008. The listing included a 160 acres (0.65 km⁲) area with nine contributing buildings, a contributing structure and two contributing sites. The ranch was established in 1872 by Jane Ferris. It is located in the heart of the Ruby River valley. Ferris' application described an original c.1866 barn which still exists. Jane Ferris was a widow with two small children. She seems to have been the only woman in the Sheridan area who was successful in using preemption to secure land and a home, for herself and her heirs. The lower Ruby Valley was opened for settlement in 1863, soon after gold discoveries in Bannack and in Alder Gulch nearby, and before there was any government survey of the land which could have led to sale of the land to the public. By the 1841 Preemption Act, any 160-acre area of unsurveyed land was open for settlement, essentially by squatters who lived on the land for 14 months, by heads of households being either a man over age 21 or a widow. The property that she claimed included an 1866 cabin, which became a portion of the main residence, and an 1866 barn, and these were described by Ferris in her 1872 application for preemption. The property was farmed by her daughter and her family in the late 1870s and early 1880s. Later, the Frederick and George Hermsmeyer families further improved the property with additional buildings related to farming. Various owners held the property after World War I, then in 1937 the Fendon family took ownership. The Fentons brought the ranch back into prosperity and improved it, especially during and after World War II when agricultural prices were better. The ranch had stayed among Fenton descendants for 70 years when it was nominated for listing on the National Register in 2007, at which time it was owned in the Wuelfing last name. The ranch was deemed significant for its "association with women's history and the use of federal public land law for settlement in southwest Montana during the formation of Montana territory."

***The Necro Files*** is a 1997 horror comedy zombie film by director Matt Jaissle. The film depicts zombies as sexual creatures whose desires for human flesh are not limited to anthropophagy.

## Plot

The film follows a zombie rapist as he returns from the dead to cannibalize and assault the living.

## Reception

Erik Piepenburg of *The New York Times* called the film a "jaw-droppingly gory trash fest" which should be seen by "video disciples with steel caldrons for stomachs". Noreen Giffney expresses in her book *Queering the Non/human* that the film "offers cinematic representations of clinical associations between criminality, murder and necrophilia" but that the film is infantile.

***The Mysterious Doctor*** is a 1943 American horror film directed by Benjamin Stoloff and written by Richard Weil. The film stars John Loder, Eleanor Parker, Bruce Lester, Lester Matthews and Forrester Harvey. The film was released by Warner Bros. on March 3, 1943.

## Plot

In a Cornish village during World War II, a German Nazi uses the disguise of a headless ghost to strike fear into the local tin mine workers.

Posing as a man the British Army has rejected for active duty, a mining engineer, Dr. Frederick Holmes, takes a week-long walking trip through Cornwall. The first time that we see Dr. Holmes, he is tramping about the foggy moors after dark and catches a ride with a peddler to Morgan's Head. He wants to know why local miners refuse to work a tin mine that could yield a valuable asset to the English war effort. Holmes learns that the villagers are not working the mine because they fear the ghost of a headless man who haunts the moors and the mine.

Eventually, the engineer exposes the ghost as a hoax. As it turns out, the village benefactor, Sir Harry Leland, has been masquerading as the headless ghost. Sir Harry explains that he is the offspring of German nobility who settled in England in the days of King George to supervise other Germans in the tin mines of Cornwall. He has turned the superstitious fears of the villagers against them to keep the mine out of operation. Sir Harry shoots a simple-minded villager who rushes him. He attacks Holmes, they struggle, and Sir Harry falls onto his knife and dies.

## Cast

## Production and release

The film working title was ***The Mystery Doctor*** *The Mysterious Doctor* was released on 6 March 1943.

## Reception

The film critic Leonard Maltin awarded *The Mystery Doctor* two and a half out of four stars, commending the film's location shooting, but called the film's cast "adequate". On his website *Fantastic Movie Musings and Ramblings*, Dave Sindelar criticized the film's unconvincing special effects, obvious story twists, and the fact that the title character vanishes from the film after the first 20 minutes. Dennis Schwartz of *Ozus' World Movie Reviews* awarded the film a grade B−, commending the film's acting, and atmosphere, writing, "It's capably executed and gets off to a chilling beginning, but the tale is too far-fetched to be totally believed and soon falls back into being a routine small town crime drama." Richard Gilliam from Allmovie gave the film a negative review, writing, "Neither as atmospheric as the latter nor as clever as the former, the story marches through its 57 minutes with little deviation from formula." *The Terror Trap* awarded it 2.5 out of 4 stars, calling it "a sleepy, unpretentious 1940s ghost horror"

title: The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu

abstract: The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu is a 1929 American pre-Code drama film directed by Rowland V. Lee and starring Warner Oland as Dr. Fu Manchu. It was the first Fu Manchu film of the talkie era. Since this was during the transition period to sound, a silent version was also released in the United States, although only the sound version exists today. The film's copyright was renewed.

# The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu

***The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu*** is a 1929 American pre-Code drama film directed by Rowland V. Lee and starring Warner Oland as Dr. Fu Manchu. It was the first Fu Manchu film of the talkie era. Since this was during the transition period to sound, a silent version was also released in the United States, although only the sound version exists today. The film's copyright was renewed.

## Plot

A young white girl, Lia Eltham, is left in Fu Manchu's care. A British regiment, chasing Boxer rebels, fires on Fu Manchu's home, killing his wife and child. When Lia Eltham grows up, he uses her as an instrument for revenge, killing all descendants of those who killed his family. Opposing Fu Manchu are Police Inspector Nayland Smith and Dr. Jack Petrie.

## Cast

## Production

The film was very loosely based on the 1913 novel *The Mystery of Dr. Fu-Manchu* by Sax Rohmer. The lead character of the novel, Sir Nayland Smith, is played down in this film, and the secondary hero, Dr. Petrie, becomes the main character. Warner Oland, an actor of Swedish descent, was so believable in the role of Fu Manchu that he embarked on a career of playing Asian types throughout the 1930s, portraying the famous Asian detective Charlie Chan, until his death in 1938.

## Characterization

*The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu* incorporates several Yellow Peril stereotypes typical of that era in its portrayal of Fu Manchu, including his skillful use of poison, blow darts, and use of hypnosis to control a white woman throughout the film.

## Sequels

Several of the actors portray the same roles in the 1930 sequel *The Return of Dr. Fu Manchu*, which was followed by the conclusion of the trilogy, the 1931 *Daughter of the Dragon*. Immediately after, MGM picked up the rights for the Fu Manchu character to produce their 1932 *The Mask of Fu Manchu*, a one-shot production which featured Boris Karloff in the title role.

# The Painter Brown and His Family

***The Painter Brown and His Family***, also known as *The Painter John Lewis Brown with His Wife and Daughter*, is an oil on canvas painting by the Italian painter Giovanni Boldini, from 1890. It is held at the Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, in Lisbon.

## History

This triple portrait depicts the French painter and engraver John Lewis Brown, from Bordeaux, of Scottish origin, in the center, surrounded by his wife and daughter. Brown was known for his battle scenes and his animal paintings of dogs and horses. This painting was exhibited at the Salon of French Artists of 1890, where it was noticed by the public and critics, few months before the death of Brown.

## Description and analysis

At first glance, everything suggests that this is an exterior scene. The happy faces, the coats and the hats are captured in movement and offset from each other. The painting seems to give the impression that it shows the sitters during a walk. The central character, bantering, seems to be looking to the painter, as if he was passing by him in the middle of the street. However, the molding on the left indicates that the scene actually takes place indoors, probably in Boldini's workshop. Brown is smiling, and his wife is at his right side, also smiling to the viewer, while is daughter is depicted, at his left. She smiles too but doesn't look directly to the viewer, unlike her parents.

The painting surprises with its chromatic sobriety, in brown and black tones, where some luminous points stand out, from the looks, the Legion of Honor ribbon that is on the lapel of Brown's jacket and the white spot under his arm, probably a crumpled newspaper. Brushed in a few zigzag brushstrokes, this painting is striking for its joyful main character outlined in the middle of the canvas.
