Reposted to add this image (cropped for emphasis) from “The Expected One,” an 1860 work by Austrian painter Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller:
Discussed (and explained) at Vice's Motherboard.
Source image for the 1860 painting.
Addendum:
I found this man, texting his friends -
Ivan Vladimirov: On the streets of Petrograd, 1918
- in a post about the October Revolution in Poemas del Rio Wang.
That is why the Europeans came to North America - for the technology. That was the origin of the term "hostile take over".
