Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

Well, at least the legend is not about a strange woman holding a world leader's cigars for him.

Howard Pyle, who is often called "the Father of American Illustration," also began to work in the Brandywine Valley. Pyle established an extraordinarily influential art school in Wilmington and Chadds Ford, where he trained dozens of artists, including major illustrators such as N.C. Wyeth, Harvey Dunn, Jessie Willcox Smith and Frank Schoonover. Pyle and many of his students are represented in the Brandywine River Museum. If you are ever in the Brandywine area, a stop at the charming Brandywine Museum is worth a look; several of Pyle's works are featured. His influence on NC Wyeth is apparent.

Wonderful! Maybe we should make that the Oath of Free Republic - especially the ‘terrible unto the wicked’ part. :-)
