Dear Max, I went to an art exhibition in the Netherlands , showing how the various artists interpreted this momentous event. My friends bought me a shopping bag, not a symbol of the revolution…., with one of the paintings on it. I am trying to get you the book that was on sale there…..think of a late St. Nicholas present and I ll make some speculas to go with it. Nana
