Today and tomorrow I am going down memory
lane and show you two caricatures that were made of me. I treasure the originals
which were done by two clever and observant artists. You will find such artists in fairs, bazaars, along a
main street, sitting there waiting for someone to volunteer his or her face. This
first one was done in Montauk Point during one of my long bike rides with some
altar boys in the summer of 1984, precisely 37 years ago! This was a quite, scenic yet busy fishing harbor
at the end of Long Island in New York. Of course the artist asked me what are
my hobbies and back then I was playing the flute on my own. I was also fond of
biking, even though I had just got my drivers license. I was also in love with
baseball, in particular the New York Mets, who would win the World Championship
in 1986. Tomorrow you’ll see a recent caricature from 2009.
