Faites défiler vers le bas pour ma collection d'illustrations politiques portant sur la Guerre Franco-Prussienne de 1870. Traduction: Saad El Manar.
November 12, 2018: My collection of Japanese representations of the Madonna and Child (see the banner below) is from a series of Christmas cards sent to me by Father Peter Milward, SJ, during the late 1970s. I had known him in Tokyo during the 1960s-1970s, at a time I was flirting with Catholicism. Previous blog posts are here. – Alan Ireland, adilbookz (at) yahoo.com
