Thanks for that Kimberly, too bad the web site doesn't offer much regarding the viewing of these paintings. When I return to San Antonio, my hometown, I am usually caught up in family matters and manage to overlook the treasures the city has to offer. When I do get out into the city it's usually in search of enchiladas, tamales, tacos, guacamole. I was thirty years old when I first stepped foot inside the Alamo. On my next visit I will make a special effort to see these great paintings. Thanks for reminding me.

They did however, offer something that I thought Sergio Ostroverhy (our Parisian firefighter) might find of particular interest. "Firefighter jackets of Japan", here is a link to the San Antonio Museum of Art, from this home page you can link to the firefighters jackets information.
