We just have to wait until Thursday. That’s when all these unfortunate events will be over and I go back to the real love of my life.

Swans are removed from a stretch of the River Thames near Henley to make way for the annual regatta, June 1900. (from Getty Images’ book “Decades of the 20th Century—1900s” by Nick Yapp, scanned by WeirdVintage)
Surrealist painter Maruja Mallo was born in 1902 in Viveiro, Spain. Mallo was an important, yet relatively overlooked figure in the Spanish Surrealist movement. She was an illustrator for “Revista de Occidente”, and José Ortega y Gasset organized her first solo exhibition. In 1982, Mallo won the Gold Medal for Merit in Fine Arts. Her artwork can be found in the collection of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid.
Maruja Mallo died in 1995.
