#17 The Wild Frontier
In the register of the courthouse of Dandridge, Tennessee, at the year 1805, one can read the marriage contract that was supposed to bind Davy Crockett to his beloved Margaret. Bad luck: at the last moment she changed her mind and went with someone else.
That would never have happened if Davy Crockett had proved a thoughtful trapper and offered her more snake leather pouches, animal totems, Minnetonka boots and squaw princess dresses.

The shaman cast her spells on the misty forest, and the animals heard her and each one hasted, trotting through the undergrowth along invisible tracks, or brushing their wings past the tops of Nootka cypresses, and they brought her dresses of peerless confection.

Dandy Lady New Look Christian Dior Fall 08
Make-up created by TyenAvailable August 11, 08
"Dandy Lady". The name of the new make-up collection by Dior brings to mind silhouettes such as Marlene Dietrich's. Women of the 30's, their dressing room overflowing with men's apparel, who did not care one whit for anybody's judgement and whose sense of elegance relied, as did that of dandy chiefs Brummell or Barbey d'Aurevilly, on a fiercely personal conception of beauty.
It's a collection for beautiful thugs, figures of the night, almost apaches. With its earthy tones and animal skin patterns, it could have adorned Doris Day's face in Calamity Jane (1953), the ambivalent portrait of an engaging, manly female adventurer, a proficient tracker and a peerless shot, a men's woman who hides a Colt beneath her wedding gown and sings Secret Love to her best friend Katie. A true "dandy lady" of her time.

Davy Crockett wanted to use these as game bags. "No way," Margaret interposed. "Tonight I'm going to that cocktail in Chattanooga."

From the Canadian moose or the giant stag with antlers 3.5m wide that disappeared during the Ice Age, down to Latin America's Pudu or the 6 hands (60 cm) high Muntiak from South-East Asia, all members of the cervidae family interest the Landesmuseum Joanneum. All of the human approaches to it, too. Hunting trophy, cave painting or advertising icon, the many faces of the animal in contemporary culture are represented. One can even smile back at a great taxidermized moose.
