While I was digging through Jstor, C was figuring stuff out on ARTstor, and she sent me this image, a fresco titled "Augustine Teaching Rhetoric in Rome":
look at the little pooch! He is paying just as much attention to Augustine as everyone else.
Thanks, C!

I know, I love how they're all looking bored and like, "Um, yeah, is it lunchtime yet?"

I love how the pooch is in the center of the floor, doing a happy-sit dance. Oh, and the people on the right look exactly like the bad catholics in on the title-page of Fox's Book of Martyrs.
