Last summer Dan and I spent 3 weeks in South Korea. During that time we visited the DMZ between N and S Korea. I took a photo of Dan at the Uniting Painting by Raran Lurie and just today learned more about the man and the painting. Here are photos of Dan, what the painting looks like in S. Korea, then one of the United Nations version, Greek, and Jerusalem. Ranan Lurie appears twice in the same 1999 Guinness Book of World Records, representing two very different categories. He holds for 20 consecutive years the title of “The most widely syndicated political cartoonist in the world,” as well as being a scion to the oldest recorded living family today: "His family is directly descended from the royal house of the biblical King David and can trace its genealogy back to the 10th century BC."

And now the rest of the story!
