Great American Sidewalks—Cleveland Museum of Art

I like seeing this every year. This year, it is a week or two earlier in September. Look at my past September posts, and you can see. Last year, it was not done because of the virus. Usually it is Saturday, and Sunday. This year, just Sunday. Some people can really draw well, and have a sense of humour.

The text is an abbreviation of the first part of Exodus, chapter 8. 

And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me. But if thou wilt not let them go behold I will strike all thy coasts with frogs. And the river shall bring forth an abundance of frogs: which shall come up, and enter into thy house, and thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and in the houses of thy servants, and to thy people, and into thy ovens, and into the remains of thy meats; And the frogs shall come in to thee and to thy people, and to all thy servants. And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand upon the streams and upon the rivers and the pools, and bring forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.

Squirrel with a Pearl Earring

Sometimes, people have chalked works that are inside the museum. This scene, from where the chalking can be done, is worth copying.

Pépé le Moko, 1937, was a great film. Jean Gabin played the title rôle wonderfully. An American copy was made with Charles Boyer. Warner Brothers had inspiration for their character, Pépé le Pew. Cartoon characters are abundant in the chalkings.
