![What I'm Listening To: In Our Time: Albrecht Dürer [Podcast]](http://welchwrite.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/mza_16829848421184530687.png)
Albrecht Düre – BBC In Our Time
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the great German artist Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) who achieved fame throughout Europe for the power of his images. These range from his woodcut of a rhinoceros, to his watercolour of a young hare, to his drawing of praying hands and his stunning self-portraits such as that above (albeit here in a later monochrome reproduction) with his distinctive A D monogram. He was expected to follow his father and become a goldsmith, but found his own way to be a great artist, taking public commissions that built his reputation but did not pay, while creating a market for his prints, and he captured the timeless and the new in a world of great change.

I came across the chinchilla artwork on Redbubble and found a large collection of equally adorable animal creations by Pameloo.
The “Squee” level of this art is off the charts.

Famous Cat Merlin with Witch
”New York is a magic city where almost anything can happen – especially if you live on the 13th floor of an apartment house on Central Park West. Now of course, since most people are superstitious there is no real 13th floor in hotels or apartment houses, and the one where Ronnie and Gillian live, although it is right above the 12th, is called the 14th. It is not until the day they find the black cat Merlin that they discover the magical 13th floor where the hall paper is a pattern of bats, owls and broomsticks, with borders made of old charms and incantations. “
The Thirteenth Is Magic, Joan Howard, illustrations by Adrienne Adams, 1950
