An Artist's Almanac for October 28, 2025

These are some of the things humans have managed to do over the years.

Today's film came out in 1968. It was a documentary directed by William Greaves.


We mark the anniversaries of the births of Desiderius Erasmus, Ayad Akhtar, Ian Hamilton Finlay, and the unveiling of the Statue of Liberty.


Today's image comes courtesy of The Museum of the City of New York, and is a painting commemorating the unveiling the Statue of Liberty, by Edward Moran. It is titled, "Unveiling The Statue of Liberty Enlightening the World".


Today's poem is by Emma Lazarus.
