More Jan 2011 stuff… Peabody Essex Museum in Salem!
Other stuff from January!
Went to the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem with Cooooookie and Juliette just before Cookie left – that was very neat. Unfortunately the museum was totally packed because it was a Sunday and one of the exhibits was closing that day. The sheer amount of people made the experience far less enjoyable, although I did really like it and would like to return sometime. 😀
Pics!
This is a real irrigation device. The picture kinda sucks but it looked really cool in person. It was also taller than me by like a foot.
………
And that is a really awesome chessboard from China. The horse pieces look especially fucking cool!!
And… here’s a painting from Calcutta, Krishna worshipping a girl’s feet.. from the 1800’s!! Even all the way back then they had things right ^.^ I much approve of this piece of art.
And… this was my favorite thing in the entire museum. I saw this from across the room and my jaw dropped. I mean. HOLY FUCK. Imagine getting hurt by one of these things?? Those are fucking shark teeth!! O.O
BRUTAL!!!!!!!!
