Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1676 (March 31, 2017) entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box below the last comment; so, I won’t point to it here.
Aw, man, tell the boss we need to telecommute tomorrow, there’s no way we’re getting inside the perimeter! (How far ahead of time does Mr. Melcher pick his paintings? As a Georgian, this one seems eerily well-chosen given last night’s bridge fire in Atlanta.)
That is actually not funny. The Picture shows the bombardment off Copenhagen in 1807, by the English admiral Nelson. A terrorbombardment of civilians – because Denmark wanted to remain neutral in the Napoleonic wars, and wouldnt freely surrender their navy to Nelson.And still the British consider Nelson a great hero..
