From the Designer:
This design was inspired by a quote from the 19th-century artist, philosopher, critic and writer John Ruskin (1819 – 1900). In a letter dated 4th of November 1860 to his friend Charles Eliot Norton he wrote the following:
“When I begin to think at all I get into states of disgust and fury at the way the mob is going on (meaning by mob, chiefly Dukes, crown princes, and such persons) that I choke; and have to go to the British Museum and look at Penguins till I get cool. I find Penguins at present the only comfort in life. One feels everything in the world so sympathetically ridiculous; one can’t be angry when one looks at a Penguin.”
In a time when we receive more news than many of us can bear, we all can use some penguins in our life!
