Flood Pillows
Description: The Zanesville "Flood Sufferers" became members of the Class B level Interstate League and played a partial season under returning manager Marty Hogan. The team disbanded on July 13, 1913, with a 27–46 record. The team nickname referred to a flood of the Muskingum River in March 1913, part of the Great Flood of 1913.
Description: A stern, haloed Jesus figure stares forward with a smoking cigar beneath the phrase “Flood It Again.” Dramatic golden lighting, classical robes, and ornate lettering give the artwork a grand religious-icon style while the message delivers sharp biblical satire. The design blends dark Christianity humor, flood imagery, irreverent faith, divine judgment, apocalypse comedy, and sacred visual symbolism into a bold piece of religious parody with a severe, confrontational mood.
Description: In addition to her work on the Moomin series, Jansson continued to create paintings, drawings, and other artworks throughout her career. Her style varied widely, from abstract landscapes to intricate pen-and-ink drawings, but all of her work displayed a unique and playful sensibility. She also wrote several novels and short stories for adults, many of which dealt with themes of identity, freedom, and artistic expression.
Description: The Flood Memorial Monument (also known as the Flood Memorial Obelisk) is a prominent historical landmark on the banks of the Red River in Grand Forks, North Dakota. It serves as a literal, physical yardstick mapping out the region's long struggle with the Red River of the North. 1997: The highest band at the top represents the devastating "500-year flood". The river crested at an unprecedented 54.35 feet, forcing the total evacuation of over 50,000 residents across Grand Forks, ND, and East Grand Forks, MN. The bridge in the background that crosses from North Dakota to Minnesota is the Sorlie Memorial Bridge, A.D. 1929. Copyright Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved 20250807-DSC_3036
