I’ve never really appreciated Chinese or Peranakan (straits chinese) craft and art. Today, however, I was blown away by the beautifully preserved stone carvings and intricate tiles that adorn some of the graves at Bukit Brown. I especially love the random and indiscriminate growth of small little plants - especially vines - over some of the graves.  </p> <p><a href="http://bukitbrown.org">more info on bukit brown</a></p>http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50976100287http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50976100287Tue, 21 May 2013 15:31:00 +0800singaporeCemeterybukit brownbeautydeathphotography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/f9b4070eeca4054c5a6845d9f8dc0a01/tumblr_mn3oczHFen1qa6vh2o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/70fb446b97fc15a61fb4ace16cdfceb7/tumblr_mn3oczHFen1qa6vh2o2_r1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Carmichael">Oh Franklin</a></p>http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50906918651http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50906918651Mon, 20 May 2013 22:02:00 +0800landscapegroup of sevenfranklin carmichaelbeautyart<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1430d809d07d05a38b1f6f2eb2110a91/tumblr_mn2fjmz5Ki1riatdoo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><div><small>Théodore Rousseau, <em>Sunset in the Auvergne</em> (detail), 1844 (<a href="http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/theodore-rousseau-sunset-in-the-auvergne">x</a>)</small></div> <p></p>http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50906291261http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50906291261Mon, 20 May 2013 21:49:20 +0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/672d28447ece960ee5458729b19e7d2b/tumblr_mmr6uz4nCo1qe0lqqo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://mpdrolet.tumblr.com/post/50448544780/tuscany-1965-gianni-berengo-gardin">mpdrolet</a></p> <p><strong>Tuscany, 1965<br/></strong><a href="http://www.designboom.com/design/gianni-berengo-gardin-photography/">Gianni Berengo Gardin</a></p>http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50905231219http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50905231219Mon, 20 May 2013 21:25:21 +0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9y7hcwHnM1r7m9kyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://exites.tumblr.com/post/50372651209">exites</a></p> <p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://lovelyandabsurd.tumblr.com/post/31026241242/love-this"> </a></p>http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50897771251http://thegullible.tumblr.com/post/50897771251Mon, 20 May 2013 18:05:06 +0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/eb716fac15923769c89e12cf083892cf/tumblr_mms58jt7uz1s2sr1oo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/fe2f24e4caf1e91b36434e8c5ea054a2/tumblr_mms58jt7uz1s2sr1oo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://pirasmous.tumblr.com/post/50409309666/la-muerte-de-sardanapalo-delacroix">pirasmous</a></p> <blockquote> <p>La Muerte de Sardanápalo (Delacroix)</p> </blockquote> <p>One year ago we wandered around the Louvre and stumbled upon this painting in the Romantic gallery.
