This great-looking Etruscan guy and the ravishingly lovely Etruscan maiden lived in a very advanced society hundreds of years before Christ...and do you notice that they seem to have no race issues at all? Nada, none, zippo. And that they look really happy? There are many people alive in 2013 who would benefit if they spent more time studying ancient murals.
Good idea!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a fantastic Easter.
Ms. A--It was a very happy Easter! And I hope yours was too! :^)
ReplyDeleteAmen to that! Thanks for pointing this out, Margaret. It's an uplifting piece of art complimented by your uplifting words.
ReplyDeleteBe well, and thanks for stopping by.
Happy Friday and weekend.

Robyn--The Etruscans seemed to have better ideas about how to live, and how to have more fun, than many modern folks--and this included some very cool treasures in their tombs, which I saw in Cortona! :^)
ReplyDeleteAny society that promoted inter-racial naked dancing is okay by me!
ReplyDeleteProfessor Chaos--I think the maiden may be wearing a frill or two and the warrior has an arm ruffle, but yes, their wardrobe is airy!
ReplyDeleteI second that! I saw a TV commercial the other day. It had an Asian husband, a black wife and mixed kid. All actors to be sure, it is awesome that things have changed as much as they have. Much work left to do though...
ReplyDeletePat Tillett--Yes, there have been some encouraging changes. I've even been told that a genetics scientist would think he was in heaven if there was more intermarriage, because that phrase "hybrid vigor" has a lot of truth behind it. Interesting!
