The Descent From The Cross, Peter Paul Rubens. Easter is tomorrow, and we don't need to mar the occasion like Captain Flemish Bringdown has done.  Let's take a look at what Easter really is all about here in the good ole U. S. of A. Silly bunnies.  Gnomes eat rabbits! Bunnies, flowers, chicks, a bluebird, lots of pink, lot of smiling.  This card has it all. Bonjour, Monsieur Jesus!  Comment ca va? This group of undead bunnies was painted by Robert Graef in 1922 for some woman's magazine cover.  Mr. Graef was a well known pulp illustrator that I have never heard of.   This artist probably did not like the work he was doing. This was on Pinterest in the Easter Vintage section.   Available for parties, weddings, bar mitzvahs. The artist who designed this bunny was really good.  Squeaks when pressed. Now here is a design artist of a more modest

This photo was taken at Clarens, Swizerland in 1925.  It is a picture of the family of Major Wilmot Allistone.  Notice the little boy's hands.  In his left he is holding a toy rabbit.  But what is up with his right hand? A few days before this photo was taken, the boy's kitten was mauled by a dog and died.  A translucent kitten can be seen just right of the toy rabbit.  For years I believed that this was proof of life beyond the grave. Major Allistone and his wife were Theosophists.  Theosophists were responsible for publicizing the ridiculous and very obvious fake photos of the Cottingley fairies, which would have been dismissed out of hand were it not for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle throwing his weight behind them.  These pictures brought in a fortune for the Theosophists, one of the girl's mothers belonged and she gave them to the society.  Just try reading Annie Besant Theosphostry books, this gibberish is still in print.
