I paid a visit to the Grand Tetons in Wyoming in September of 2025. The mountains were obscured by smoke from the many western wildfires happing at that time. Thankfully, when I returned in April of 2026, the skies were clear and the snow covered peaks were majestic.

Antonin Mercié’s masterful Gloria Victis (“Glory to the Vanquished”) stands as a powerful tribute to resilience in defeat. Created after the Franco-Prussian War, it subverts traditional heroic imagery by depicting a winged allegory of Fame lifting a dying soldier, who holds his broken sword high in defiance. The dynamic, upward-sweeping composition captures a brilliant interplay of vulnerability and strength, immortalizing the courage of the fallen and proving that true glory is never lost.
