This is Ariston. Before the war my husband’s great grandparents raised livestock in Normandy. One year their bull Ariston won ‘best bull in France’ at Paris’ Salon de Agriculture, which still takes place every year. Thus, Ariston received the great honor of having his likeness drawn in charcoal by a local artist. He used to sit above the fireplace at Alex’s dear grandmother’s home. When she passed his parents asked if there was anything he wanted and he said ‘Ariston’ ...who now has a permanent place in our home.
