It's really interesting that you picked the seal. I love to watch how people walk around it to avoid stepping on it. I think it was a good choice for the blog assignment, but I'm not sure if an analysis of it would yield 750 words. It would be really interesting to maybe dig deeper into the tradition and think about the original scene and purpose of it compared to how things are now.
ReplyDeleteI was afraid that I wouldn't have enough to write about it. That sounds like a good idea though to dig deeper into the tradition. Thanks!
