Father
A series of posters exploring the origin of parenthood.
Vater! wo bist du?
Father! where are you?
When Friedrich Nietzsche was not quite five years old, his father died from a brain ailment. Both Richard Wagner (right) and Arthur Schopenhauer (left) became a father figure. The image is framed with images from sculptures of the earliest representations of men.
Wow this is great

How to wash chiffon
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need
- Sink or plastic washtub
- Water
- Mild hand-washing detergent
Fill the sink or bucket with cool or lukewarm water. Do not use hot water or the chiffon may shrink.
Add a capful of mild hand-washing detergent to the water and use your hand to mix the detergent well.
Place the fabric into the water and allow it to soak for a few minutes.
Stir the fabric in the soapy water to clean it thoroughly. You may also scrub the garment against a washboard.
Empty the sink or bucket and refill with it with cold water.
Swirl the garment around in the water to remove the detergent. You may have to do this a few times to thoroughly remove all traces of the detergent.
Squeeze as much water from the garment as possible and arrange it on a flat dry surface. Allow the fabric to air dry.
