About Me

My photo
Adalbert is a forum for me, to post ephemera, photography, poetry, occasional travel notes, and various spontaneous motions. Cover photo: Parsonage where my great-grandfather spent his early years. Taken near Liegnitz, Silesia, ca. 1870. The "xothique" portion of the web address is a nod to Clark Ashton Smith's fictional continent of Zothique.

 "(De Chirico's) father, a Sicilian engineer who lived in Greece, had an aristocratic temperament and had fought several pistol duels.  His mother was romantically enough inclined to have had one of the bullets which had wounded her husband mounted in gold."
