<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 4446763, member: 84&quot;]At the thrift store today I knew it was going to be a good day when a clothing cart came out &amp; right in front was a Led Zepplin embroidered tour jacket right in front ($7.99 - I grabbed it before the cart stopped rolling!)</p><p><br /></p><p>But when I saw this painting it stopped me in my tracks - I first thought it was a mardi gras scene, but then I saw the people following the first row of people (the man breaking free of his chains while looking at the dandy or plantation owner is cool) are not in costume?</p><p><br /></p><p>And now I&#039;m wondering if it&#039;s a political statement? Especially because of the military/government guy - he has a 2 colored face; maybe the leader at the time was considered two faced or lied about something?</p><p><br /></p><p>Or maybe I&#039;m reading too much into it!</p><p><br /></p><p>Any thoughts would be appreciated - I respect (am usually in awe of) the opinions that come from this forum &amp; am hoping someone can tell me if it&#039;s just a nice folk art painting or something else.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]382145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382146[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382148[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382149[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382150[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382151[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382152[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382153[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382154[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
