Yes, that's kind of lovely.  :)  (.. and the crossings-out could almost be fancifully imagined as the now-never-to-be-heard soundwaves of the music being despatched.)

Of course, the Russians buy parts for their Volkswagens through third countries with a markup. Your picture is good to compare with this one showing the volume of direct exports from Germany to Russia.

Max Liebermann - Street in Zandvoort

Been a little disappointed by the page-a-day art calendar this year.

This is the first time this whole year I've felt the desire to check out the artist and look at more of their work.

Thank you, PD! Yes, it is, and acoustically, it's pretty good, too. The interior was intended to mimic the shape of a cello — not that being inside of a cello would be the best listening spot ;D.
