I had hoped for that true american early 1800s painting, the one with a great white horse, a splendid shining (white and gold, plumes,etc) uniform, and a hole to stick a head into. I heard that many US generals used it for the media, despite the success of the US militia snipers, 80% of the splendid british officers, in that revolution. Btw, did Washington really ride a white horse too, did that make a great secondary inprint on Ayn?? (she seems to have had somethin about that too??) I have heard Washington always did, white horse and shining uniform, those stupid furriners never learned to target him?? PS I had that jpg, but then windows 3.11 crashed, it was all gone. PPS Maybe Ayn was more inspired by the way Napoleon used to scratch his belly?? (did Washington too scratch his belly, did he also wear his cap exactly 90 degrees wrong) PPPS However, the swedes, or at least one swede, have this theory that they remade their shining fallen hero using just some brazilian rubber, patched him, dressed and re-painted him for at least 200 years as well as imported new horses from Poland. (not the rubber-maid, but the rubber-hero) Btw, his white (non-castrated) horse, who suddenly took him too far into the wrong side of the front, is still in some polish museum, stuffed. Btw, btw, fat as he was (the hero), not very good with white un-castrated horses, he was still brought back to Sweden, in appr 6 months, his widow kissed him farewell (despite the smell, as the poets say), and since then Sweden has not done any major wars. No wonder Ayn Rand got so objectivly frustrated and hrny..
