Price: Contact Don Year: 2003 Media: (Original) Casein paints on Fabriano Ingres paper Dimensions: 11" x 14" Text: "Patriotism is not a song in the street, nor a wreath on a column, nor a flag flying from a window. It is a thing very holy and very terrible, like life itself. It is a burden to be borne, a thing to labor for and to suffer for and to die for; a thing which gives no happiness and no pleasantness, but a hard life and an unknown grave, and the respect and bowed heads of those that follow." - John Mansfield (1878-1967)
