Holstein, the Younger

 

Have you ever confused Holstein, a breed of cow, with Holbein, the Younger (1497-1543), the Northern German painter?

Saturday Afternoon say like Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1960), the Karel Reisz film from the Alan Sillitoe novel starring Albert Finney, as the factory worker, Arthur Seaton.
