Gay Comix
Gay Comix (later Gay Comics) is an underground comics series published from 1980–1998 featuring cartoons by and for gay and lesbian men and women. The comic books had the tagline “Lesbians and Gay Men Put It On Paper!”  Much of the early content was autobiographical, but more diverse themes were explored in later editions. The contents of "Gay Comix" were generally about relationships, personal experiences, and humor, rather than sex.

The Life of Nancy
The Life of Nancy (1895) is a collection of eleven short stories by Sarah Orne Jewett. Following in the tradition of "local color" fiction, Jewett's stories are defined by their detailed descriptions of all aspects of everyday life in the country locales and fishing-towns in which the stories are set. Despite the lack of relation between the characters in each story, a common theme runs through the collection: nostalgia for the past and/or a need for revival of tradition. On its release, "The Life of Nancy" was extremely well received. It drew positive reviews in numerous journals, papers and magazines including "The Nation", "The Atlantic", "The Atlantic Monthly", "The Daily Picayune", and "The Chautauquan".

Black-figure pottery
Black-figure pottery painting, also known as the black-figure style or black-figure ceramic (Greek, "μελανόμορφα", "melanomorpha") is one of the styles of painting on antique Greek vases. It was especially common between the 7th and 5th centuries BC, although there are specimens dating as late as the 2nd century BC. Stylistically it can be distinguished from the preceding orientalizing period and the subsequent red-figure pottery style. Figures and ornaments were painted on the body of the vessel using shapes and colors reminiscent of silhouettes. Delicate contours were incised into the paint before firing, and details could be reinforced and highlighted with opaque colors, usually white and red.
