[meteorite-list] T-shirt (and French Fall)

[Bernd V. Pauli]

Hello List,

I wrote:

"St. Caprais-de-Quinsac...Gironde (France) Fell 1883, Jan 28, 14:45 hrs"

Sounds good, looks good, ... but:

Have a close look at the date of the fall: Jan 28 !!!

Now, when you compare this with Mike B.'s remarks:

"One will note that there are many farmers about
 and the horse is saddled with the hay carriage."

The only conclusion we can thus draw is that the scene depicts
an (imaginary?) event in late summer during the harvest season,
probably August.

Another possibility might be that Poyet so-to-speak "merged"
two incidents: the fall of the St. Caprais-de-Quinsac meteorite
and the harvest scene.

A case of ... artistic license?
