Wanda: I can't stand people. I hate them. Do you hate them?
Henry: No, but I seem to feel better when they're not around.

I believe it, can't say I've been that lucky but you can find some great stuff in thrift stores - found this old print in one, hard to photo bc of glare from glass on frame. "Daniel's Answer to the King" by Briton Rivière original work done in 1890 not sure of print date.
Briton Rivière (1840–1920) was a British artist who specialized in painting animals. Rivière meticulously studied wildlife to perfect his compositions. He attended dissections at the London Zoological Gardens and kept the “body of a fine lioness” in his studio. In this work, he paints a scene from the biblical story of Daniel, a Jewish official in the service of the Persian king Darius. Darius had issued an edict that no man should pray to any God or man other Darius himself. Daniel defied the ruling and continued to pray toward Jerusalem, so Darius convicted him and threw him to the lions. The next day Daniel was still alive and unharmed. Rivière shows Daniel with his back turned on the lions in relaxed contemplation, eyes raised in deference to God. Here Daniel prefers to face death rather than forsake God.

Got my The Last of Us set in after it was stuck in customs for about a week. No variant photos because I'm lazy. TLOU is one of my all time favorite games, so I'm really glad Krzysztof's work for this got printed. VG Kids did a great job with the printing.
