Three-Way Pocky A-Way Big Chief Monk Boudreaux 
by Richard Thomas 

How does one capture - in mere ink and paper - a regal Mardi Gras Indian chief, resplendent in a suit of fine plumage, prismatic beads and exquisite handiwork that turns culture into couture? How does one freeze the driving rhythms that animate Mardi Gras Indians, the font of back-beat, second line New Orleans? Start with an icon; in this case Chief Joseph Pierre "Monk" Boudreaux of the Golden Eagles Tribe. Boudreaux, 64 when this poster was released, occupies the big chief's position of stature and cultural responsibility and has woven his chants into music performed around the world.

To create a visual icon representing a culture so unique we called upon Richard Thomas whose energetic fusion, based upon on a photo by Michael P. Smith, New Orleans' premier documentary photographer, succeeds wildly in conveying the dignity, stature and intensity of a Big Chief at the peak of his powers. Thomas manages to both show the man and his art; the all-encompassing costume that sometimes obscures the Indian wearing it. This triptych (three-panel piece) is timeless. Collaborating with Smith, Thomas has birthed a vision that rocks like the Indians on Mardi Gras day. In addition to the numbered and the artist-signed editions, a special edition triple signed by Thomas, Smith & Boudreaux was published. A piece of art that's a piece of history. Three-way Pocky A-Way!

Sturdy and great looking.
The Burberry glasses are really nice looking. The frame is nice and sturdy. I am very pleased with them. They are a little pricey. Nonetheless the glasses have a great look, design, and are well made.

Terrible quality for Burberry
I am really careful with my glasses, I have some Gucci frames for 20 years now. These did not even last me 6 months. The Burberry color turned out to be a sticker which came off in a couple of months. The hinges don't work well and they keep slipping off my nose every few minutes. I had very expensive lenses fitted in to these frames and they should have lasted at least 2 years. Now I am stuck with uncomfortable frames that just drive me crazy.
