Diogenes Surrounded by Dogs - by Jean Leon Gerome Postcard
This artwork by the French painter Jean-Léon Gérôme shows the famous Greek philosopher Diogenes of Sinope (404-323 BC) seated in his earthenware tub home in the public marketplace. He is surrounded by dogs. These are his companions and they symbolise his "Cynic" philosophy and austerity. Diogenes made a virtue of poverty. He was famous for his philosophical acts such as carrying a lighted lantern in order to search for an honest human being.
~ Jean-Léon Gérôme Gérôme painted Diogenes in 1860. It is an oil on canvas and is in the collection of the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, MD.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for.
I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording.
Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
