Apsley House

Apsley House, também conhecida como Número Um, Londres, foi a residência londrina dos Duques de Wellington e está localizada sozinha em Hyde Park Corner, a sudeste de Hyde Park, próxima de um turbulento sistema de circulação de tráfego. A mansão é protegida pelo English Heritage e, como um museu e uma galeria de arte, é aberta ao público. Entretanto, o atual Duque de Wellington, Arthur Wellesley, 8.° Duque de Wellington, ainda usufrui parte de Apsley House como uma residência de meio tempo. Às vezes, o palacete é referido como Museu de Wellington. Talvez seja o único exemplo preservado de uma aristocrática casa de cidade inglesa de seu período. História Apsley House foi originalmente construída de tijolos vermelhos por Robert Adam entre 1771 e 1778, para Lord Apsley, o Lorde chanceler, que deu à casa seu nome. Alguns interiores de Adam sobreviveram: a escadaria semi-circular, o salão de recepções com uma abside em seu final, o quarto pórtico, atrás do gigante pórtico corintiano, adicionado por Wellington. Em 1807, a mansão foi adquirida por Richard Wellesley, 1° Marquês Wellesley, o irmão mais velho de Sir Arthur Wellesley. Entretanto, dez anos depois, dificuldades financeiras o forçaram a vender Apsley para seu irmão famoso, o então Duque de Wellington, que precisava de uma base em Londres para sua nova carreira na política. Wellington contratou o arquiteto Benjamin Dean Wyatt para executar renovações entre 1818 e 1819. Ele aumentou o palacete adicionando dois vãos a oeste dos cinco originais. Construiu a Galeria de Waterloo para alojar as obras de arte do Duque e revestiu, com pedra-sabão dourada, os tijolos vermelhos. Além disso, introduziu sua própria versão de estilo francês aos interiores. Apsley House recebeu o popular apelido de "Número Um, Londres" quando se tornou a primeira casa pela qual visitantes de outras regiões do país passavam. Foi originalmente parte de uma contígua linhagem de grandes casas em Piccadilly, demolidas para ampliar Park Lane. Seu endereço oficial permanece o mesmo: 149 Piccadilly, W1J 7NT. Durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, house rumores de que o rei Jorge VI e sua filha, a futura Rainha Elizabeth II, souberam que os tesouros da mansão não tinham sido evacuados. A história conta que ambos chegaram lá numa van e ajudaram no deslocamento rápido dos objetos para Frogmore. A prática tem sido manter tão distante como possível os quartos no estilo e na decoração originais. A mansão contém a coleção do primeiro Duque de Wellington de porcelanas, mobílias, esculturas e pinturas realizadas por Goya, Velasquez, Rubens e Brueghel. O heroico e nu Napoleão Bonaparte de Antonio Canova segurando uma Nice dourada no palmo de sua mão foi feita entre 1802 e 1810 e exposta no Louvre, até o governo trazê-la para Wellington em 1816. Atualmente, a estátua de Napoleão fica perto da escadaria de Robert Adam. Gerald Wellesley, 7.° Duque de Wellington, doou a mansão à nação em 1947, mas a família detém um apartamento no segundo andar até hoje.

Эпсли-хаус

Эпсли-хаус (англ. Apsley House) — лондонская резиденция герцогов Веллингтонов, расположенная в юго-восточном углу Гайд-парка, на площади Гайд-Парк-Корнер. С 1947 года большая часть помещений открыта для свободного посещения под именем Веллингтоновского музея (Wellington Museum); сам герцог во время приездов в Лондон останавливается в апартаментах с северной стороны здания. Эпсли-хаус представляет собой исключительный по степени сохранности пример городской резиденции высших слоёв британской аристократии. Он был построен в 1771—78 годах по проекту Роберта Адама для лорда Эпсли (впоследствии лорд-канцлер Генри Батерст, 1-й граф Батерст). В Адамовом стиле до сих пор выдержаны лестница, гостиная и ещё несколько помещений. У входа в здание возвышаются арка Веллингтона и конный памятник самому знаменитому владельцу дома — 1-му герцогу Веллингтону, при котором Эпсли-хаус приобрёл свой нынешний облик в регентском стиле. Герцог приобрёл особняк у своего старшего брата, графа Ричарда Уэлсли. Он пристроил к зданию ампирный фронтон, облицевал его батским известняком, расширил флигели и картинную галерею. Основу художественного собрания Эпсли-хауса, наречённого в честь победы Веллингтона при Ватерлоо, составляют полотна, захваченные герцогом в стане брата Наполеона после битвы при Витории. Здесь представлены такие имена, как Веласкес, Рубенс, Лоррен, Корреджо и Гойя, а также Канова (идеализированная статуя нагого Наполеона в виде бога войны Марса).

Apsley House

Apsley House är en historisk byggnad (townhouse) i Westminster i London. Den är belägen vid Hyde Park Corner och kallades förr Number One, London eftersom det var den första byggnaden resenärer från väster såg när de kom in i staden efter att ha passerat stadsportarna. Ett annat namn är Wellington Museum eftersom den idag nyttjas som konstmuseum och hyser de så kallade Wellington Collection. Apsley House uppfördes 1771–1778 av arkitekten Robert Adam för Henry Bathurst, 2:e earl Bathurst som vid tiden betitlades Lord Apsley. Stilen var nyklassicistisk och fasaden var ursprungligen utförd i rött tegel. År 1807 förvärvades huset av Richard Wellesley, 1:e markis Wellesley som 1817 överlät det till sin yngre bror Arthur Wellesley, hertig av Wellington, mest känd för segern över Napoleon i slaget vid Waterloo 1815. Denne uppdrog åt Benjamin Dean Wyatt(en) och hans bror Philip Wyatt(en) att renovera och utvidga huset 1828–1829. Vid ombyggnaden tillkom stenfasaden och portiken med de korintiska kolonnerna samt Waterloo Gallery där sedan 1828 en årlig bankett hålls till minne av slaget. Ytterligare ombyggnader utfördes av Philip Hardwick(en) 1853. Huset har tre våningar och sju fönster i bredd. Gerald Wellesley, 7:e hertig av Wellington överlät 1947 Apsley House till brittiska staten men familjen förfogar fortfarande över ungefär hälften av rummen. Apsley House öppnades 1952 för allmänheten som museum. Wellington Collection Samlingen består huvudsakligen av målningar, inklusive 83 verk som tidigare fanns i den spanska kungens samling i Palacio del Buen Retiro men stals under Napoleonkrigen av Joseph Bonaparte. Denne besegrades dock av Wellington som senare erbjöds målningarna av Ferdinand VII av Spanien. Konstsamlingen består också av möbler, skulpturer, porslin, silversmide samt militaria med anknytning till Wellington själv.

Епслі-хаус

Епслі-хаус (англ. Apsley House) — лондонська резиденція герцогів Веллінгтонів, розташована на південно-східному куті Гайд-парку, на площі Гайд-Парк-Корнер. З 1947 року більша частина приміщень відкрита для вільного відвідування під ім'ям Веллінгтонівського музею (англ. Wellington Museum); сам герцог під час приїздів до Лондона зупиняється в апартаментах з північного боку будівлі. Епслі-хаус є винятковим за ступенем збереження прикладом міської резиденції вищих шарів британської аристократії. Його було зведено у 1771-78 роках за проектом Роберта Адама для лорда Епслі (надалі — лорд-канцлер Генрі Бетхерст, 1-й граф Бетхерст). В Адамовому стилі донині витримані сходи, вітальня і ще декілька приміщень. Поблизу входу до будівлі височіє арка Веллінгтона та кінний пам'ятник найбільш відомому власнику будинку — 1-му герцогу Веллінгтону, за якого Епслі-хаус набув свого нинішнього вигляду у регентському стилі. Герцог придбав садибу у свого старшого брата, графа Річарда Веллслі. Він прибудував до будівлі ампірний фронтон, облицював його батським вапняком, розширив флігелі й картинну галерею. Основу художнього зібрання Епслі-хаусу, названого на честь перемоги Веллінгтона при Ватерлоо, складають полотна, захоплені герцогом у країні брата Наполеона після битви під Віторією. Тут представлені такі імена як Веласкес, Рубенс, Лоррен, Корреджо і Гойя, а також Канова (ідеалізована скульптура оголеного Наполеона у вигляді бога війни Марса).

Wanstead Park

Wanstead Park est un parc municipal couvrant une superficie d'environ 57 hectares, à Wanstead, dans le Borough londonien de Redbridge. C'est également un quartier du London Borough of Redbridge, qui était dans l'Essex jusqu'en 1965. Il est administré dans le cadre de la forêt Epping par la City of London Corporation, après avoir été acheté par la Société en 1880 à Henry Wellesley, 1er Earl Cowley. Histoire Le parc d'aujourd'hui faisait autrefois partie du parc aux cerfs de l'ancien manoir de Wanstead, qui comprenait une grande partie de la zone urbanisée maintenant connue sous le nom de Wanstead. Le parc actuel conserve une partie de la configuration de son ancienne existence en tant que terrain du manoir Wanstead, bien que la limite ouest du parc se trouve à environ 330 mètres à l'est du site de la maison. En 1992, un plan de gestion a été lancé pour tenter de rétablir quelque chose rapprochant du terrain d'une Grande Maison. Le parc est de grade II (inscrit au Registre des parcs et jardins historiques). Bibliographie Alan Cornish, M.Sc. Parc Wanstead : Une chronique. Wanstead Parklands Community Project, 2006, 2e éd.

John Cabot Academy

John Cabot Academy (formerly John Cabot CTC) is one of 15 City Technology Colleges that first opened for students in the 1993/1994 academic year. It has since converted to Academy status on 1 September 2007. It is located in east Greater Bristol, England in the Kingswood area of South Gloucestershire and is named after John Cabot, an explorer who set out from Bristol and reached the Americas in 1497. The academy has 1,078 students, about 220 of whom are in the sixth form. History The John Cabot City Technology College (CTC) became the John Cabot Academy in 2007. The present Academy is independent of local authority control, but enjoys a close relationship with both South Gloucestershire and Bristol Local Authorities. The school served as the filming location for the TV show Skins from 2007 to 2013, where it was depicted as the fictional Roundview College. Information The principal is Kate Willis. The academy is part of an Academy Federation led by Sir David Carter, a previous Principal, who was knighted in the 2013 Birthday Honours List. The federation runs lessons throughout the several schools, with sixth formers moving between schools for some of their lessons. The academy operates the PLTs Curriculum, which was developed at the academy. It focuses on inspiration and teaches students to empower over students to achieve greater feats together The academy is divided into 6 tutor groups throughout each year (3 in x and 3 in y). Term system and school day From the start of the academic year 2009/10 the term system has been changed to be the same as other schools in England to make the Diplomas easier to coordinate. This turned out to be unpopular due to demand for public places and therefore became over crowded. The typical school day begins at 8:40AM and ends at 3:00PM. The time is divided into 6 periods (not including tutor time and break times). Student Voice The academy has a student voice system which allows the students to give their opinions on issues related to the academy, such as sanctions and rewards, and the construction of new buildings. Two students from each tutor group are chosen each year. The chosen student becomes the representative of their tutor group, collecting opinions from their classmates to relay to the meeting.

John F Kennedy Catholic School

John F Kennedy Catholic School is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school located in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England. It opened in 1967 and has a current student population of approximately 1,100, aged 11 to 18. The school's motto is Pacem in terris (peace on Earth). The school is also part of a local partnership of secondary schools, offering a variety of subject choices for post-16 students, but as of 2020, this partnership is more limited. In September 2009, the school opened a major £8.4m ($16.2m) new building project which has expanded facilities for several of the school's subject departments. The building project includes: A new teaching block 4 new tennis courts on previously unused field area A new sports hall in the 'spinney' (a wooded area on the school site) A new playground in front of the school's largest teaching block, the 'B Block' A new car park to help deal with local parking issues, which will take up the remainder of the current tennis court area The school has minimised the impact on the local environment by avoiding significant loss of trees. The project also involved the planting of new trees, and using trees which are required to be cut down as wood-chip paths and for the construction of the gazebo-type structure in the so-called 'spinney'. Previously a voluntary aided school administered by Hertfordshire County Council, in June 2023 John F Kennedy Catholic School converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by the All Saints Catholic Academy Trust, but continues to be under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Westminster.

John Flamsteed Community School

John Flamsteed Community School is an 11–16 mixed secondary school with academy status in Denby, Derbyshire, England. It is named after Sir John Flamsteed, the first Astronomer Royal, who was a native of Denby and made early and accurate predictions of a solar eclipse in 1666. History There is evidence of a Free School association in Denby from 1854, although the first school in Denby dates from 1730 after Jane Massie left monies for a school in her 1728 will. In 1838 a school in the village had 25 children receiving a free education in reading and writing with a separate teacher for the girls who were taught to sew and knit. The school itself can trace its history in the village to a Smithy Houses School that was founded in 1894 with a staff of two. The school was at Smithy Houses which had previously been the offices of William Drury Holden who inherited Locko Park. The first school was designed for 150 students and was paid for by voluntary subscription. Within two weeks the school had attracted over 120 pupils and the new head asked the governors to employ two extra staff to teach the pupils efficiently. Smithy Houses School was used by the community – in 1919 when the Denby Pottery Welfare committee organised a concert here, four days after the end of World War I. In 1975 there was a plan to close the school but this was opposed by the local community. The school at that time was called Denby John Flamsteed School. After six years the school was relaunched as an eleven to sixteen community school under its present name. John Flamsteed now specializes in subjects Maths, Computing and Science. A new Drama and Music block was opened in September 2011. The Old School (Internally Known as the "Ryknield Rooms" by Staff but colloquially as Old School by the Student Body) area now only serves humanities and Languages. [1] Previously a community school administered by Derbyshire County Council, John Flamsteed Community School converted to academy status in April 2016. However the school continues to coordinate with Derbyshire County Council for admissions. References
Royal Pavilion

El Royal Pavilion (Pavelló Reial) o Brighton Pavilion és una antiga residència reial situada a Brighton, Anglaterra. Inicialment el Royal Pavillon era una granja, però el 1783 el llavors príncep de Gal·les, Jordi, futur rei Jordi IV, el va llogar per utilitzar en les seves primeres visites a Brighton. Més tard el 1787 va encarregar a Henry Holland la creació en el lloc d'una vila neo-clàssica, anomenada Marine Pavillon. El 1802 van decorar-se els interiors a l'estil xinés. El 1811, Jordi va ser nomenat príncep regent i va encarregar a l'arquitecte John Nash l'ampliació de l'edifici (1815-1822), concebut en un estil arquitectural exòtic, l'exterior és inspirat de l'arquitectura índia. A finals del segle xviii i principis del XIX, a Anglaterra va generalitzar-se l'ús del ferro fos en la construcció dels edificis, i John Nash el va utilitzar en el Royal Pavillon (columnes en forma de palmera, escales amb formes xinesques i cúpules amb armadures metàli·ques). Jordi IV va regnar entre 1820 i 1830. El seu germà Guillem IV també va utilitzar el Pavilion com a residència reial, però la seva neboda,la reina Victòria el va vendre a la ciutat de Brighton el 1850. Durant la Gran Guerra va ser habilitat com a hospital militar, especialment pels soldats hindús. De la decoració interior cal destacar diversos elements i curiositats: El gran piano de palissandre fabricat per Mott and Co. La Galeria llarga amb mobles de bambú, escales de ferro imitant el bambú i figures d'argila fabricades a la Xina, datades en el període Qing. La Sala de banquets, amb làmpades dissenyades per Robert Jones. La gran cuina amb una col·lecció de 550 estris de coure. Sala de música amb un disseny de Frederick Crace. Mobles dissenyats per Thomas Hope. Referències

Kraljevski paviljon u Brightonu

Kraljevski paviljon (engleski: Royal Pavilion) je egzotična neo-mogulska (indo-gotička) palača sa šarolikom poviješću u središtu Brightona. Isprva izgrađena kao kraljevski ljetnikovac, sadrži elemente indijske i kineske kulture. Još u 18. stoljeću na tom mjestu je stajala obična seoska kućica, no tadašnji regent, Đuro IV., je odlučio pretvoriti u nešto mnogo grandioznije. U regentsko doba (Regency, 1811. – 1820.) engleske umjetnosti i kulture jedan od vodećih londonskih arhitekata bio je John Nash kojem je 1815. godine kralj Đuro dao skoro nemoguć zadatak izgradnje Kraljevskog paviljona. Đuro je itekako volio pokazivati svoju pretjeranu ljubav prema raskošnoj i nakičenoj umjetnosti što se može vidjeti i na samom primjeru Kraljevskog paviljona. Teško da postoji neki orijentalni element koji Nash nije upotrijebio u izgradnji Kraljevskog paviljona od 1815. do 1822. god. Kompleks sastavljen od kupole, tornja i minareta pokazuje utjecaj romantizma u eksterijeru paviljona. Ali, pretežno indijski izgled paviljona “narušen“ je islamskim minaretima i kineskim pagodama, elementima iz bliskoistočnih i dalekoistočnih arhitektura. Palača je bila okružena poznatim regentskim vrtovima uz mješovito grmlje i cvijeće, te uredno uređenim travnjacima. Također, Đurina ljubav prema jahanju je dala povod za izgradnju obližnje štale u obliku kupole sa staklenim i olovnim svodom. Viktorija, kraljica Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva, nalazila je Brighton prenapučen u vrijeme odmora i odlučila je ljetovati na otoku Wight, a Kraljevski paviljon je prodan gradu Brightonu za 53.000 £ 1850. god. Grad je paviljon koristio za gradska vijeća, a kupolasta štala je pretvorena u koncertnu dvoranu. Tijekom Prvog svjetskog rata, od 1914. do 1920., Kraljevski paviljon je pretvoren u bolnicu za vojne ranjenike s preko 720 kreveta. Poslije Drugog svjetskog rata, grad Brighton je uložio mnogo vremena i novaca da obnovi Kraljevski paviljon u izgled iz vremena kralja Đure. Kraljica Elizabeta II. je podržala ovaj projekt trajno posudivši preko 100 komada namještaja iz kraljevske kolekcije. Danas je Kraljevski paviljon velika turistička atrakcija koju posjeti oko 400.000 posjetitelja svake godine. Izvori
