# Maksim Vorobyov (painter)

Maksim Nikiforovich Vorobyov (Russian: Максим Никифорович Воробьёв; 17 August 1787, in Pskov – 11 September 1855, in Saint Petersburg) was a Russian landscape painter.

## Biography

He was the son of a retired soldier who later served as a custodian at the Imperial Academy of Arts. At the age of ten, he was enrolled in the elementary classes and went on to study landscape painting with Fyodor Alekseyev and architecture with Jean-François Thomas de Thomon. In 1809, Alekseyev joined an expedition to explore the historic areas of Central Russia and Vorobyov went with him as an assistant.
In 1813-1814, he accompanied the Russian army on its campaigns in Germany and France. In 1815, he became a teacher at the Academy, a position he held until his death. Later, in 1820, he would make a trip to Palestine as part of a diplomatic mission, on behalf of then Grand Duke Nikolai Pavlovich, to draw and make architectural plans of the major Christian sites, for eventual use on projects near Moscow. Most of this work had to be done in secret to avoid interference by the local Ottoman authorities. Besides the ancient ruins, he also drew sketches of contemporary Jerusalem and the Dead Sea as well as scenes from Istanbul, Smyrna, Jaffa and other places he passed through. The final result was a collection of over 90 watercolor sheets that would serve as the basis for many paintings. He received a lifetime pension for his work there.
During the Russo-Turkish War he was attached to the retinue of Nicholas I (now the Tsar) to sketch and make paintings upon his direction, which included several scenes from the Siege of Varna. Following the sudden death of his beloved wife Cleo in 1840, he fell into a period of chronic depression and alcoholism which led to the illness that eventually took his life. His output decreased to a trickle, consisting largely of sketches made from 1844 to 1846 while travelling through Italy in an effort to assuage his grief. When he died, most of his paintings were still in his possession or being passed around by friends and associates. The majority are now in palaces or private collections. He was also a talented violinist. Some of his best known students were Lev Lagorio, Mikhail Clodt, Alexey Bogolyubov and Ivan Shishkin. His adopted son, Sokrat, also became a landscape painter and art teacher.

# Greenguard Environmental Institute

The Greenguard Environmental Institute (corporately styled "GREENGUARD") is an industry-independent organization that aims to protect human health and improve quality of life by enhancing indoor air quality and reducing people’s exposure to chemicals and other pollutants. As an ISO-IEC Guide 65:1996 accredited, third-party certifying body, the Greenguard Environmental Institute certifies products and materials for low chemical emissions and serves as a public resource for choosing healthier products and materials for indoor environments. In 2011, UL Environment, a business unit of UL (Underwriters Laboratories) acquired Greenguard Environmental Institute.
The UL GREENGUARD Certification Program requires that products undergo independent, scientific testing and ongoing monitoring of their chemical emissions. Only products that meet UL Environment’s stringent emissions standards qualify for certification. These standards are based on established criteria from key public health agencies.
More than 10,000 products on the market are UL GREENGUARD Certified, representing over 350 manufacturers and 19 industries. The UL Sustainable Products Database, the organization's online database of certified or validated products, helps people identify certified products and is searchable by product category, manufacturer, sustainable credits, product attributes, and certification type. GREENGUARD Certification is broadly recognized and accepted by sustainable building programs and building codes worldwide.

## History

The Greenguard Environmental Institute was founded in 2001 by indoor air quality scientist Dr. Marilyn Black. Her vision was to create a third-party product certifier that could educate consumers and industry professionals about the importance of good indoor air quality and low-emitting products.

### Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certification

The Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certification was Greenguard’s first certification offering. Products that are Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified meet strict chemical emissions limits and are designed for use in office environments and other indoor spaces. Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certification gives credence to manufacturers’ sustainability claims, backing them with empirical scientific data from an unbiased, third-party organization.

### Greenguard Children & Schools Certification (now GREENGUARD GOLD)

In 2005, the Greenguard Children & Schools Certification was launched to address the indoor air quality needs of schools, daycares, and other sensitive environments in which children spend a lot of time. As such, it enforces stricter chemical emissions limits than the original certification. The Greenguard Children & Schools standard is referenced by both the Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS) and the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Building Rating System. In 2013, Greenguard Children & Schools Certification was renamed GREENGUARD GOLD Certification.

The title reflects the artists fascination with the subconscious.

# Moseley, Virginia

Moseley is an unincorporated area in Powhatan and Chesterfield counties in the U.S. state of Virginia. It is located to the west of the metropolitan Richmond area.
The United States Post Office for the community is located at 21431 Hull Street Road, with a ZIP code of 23120.
The community still has farms, some of which have established tourist activities such as pick-your-own-fruits and -vegetables and seasonal events. The privately owned Metro Richmond Zoo is located here and has operated year round on its 70-acre facility since 1995. (It was closed for a period during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.)
Many upper-middle class communities have been built in this formerly rural area since the late 20th century, such as Magnolia Green, Summer Lake, Westerleigh and FoxFire. It is bordered to the east by the census-designated place of Woodlake.

## History

The community was named for William Moseley, a major landowner who donated property in the late 19th century for a railroad station. It developed as a stop on the Farmville and Powhatan Railroad from 1891 to 1905, and then on the Tidewater and Western Railroad from 1905 to 1917. It was also a stop on the Richmond and Danville Railroad, which was renamed as the Southern Railway (U.S.). It was absorbed by the Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982, which no longer stops in Moseley.
In the late 1800s some people would transfer between the two railroads here, although they had separate stations.
In 1891 the train did not always stop. Staff used a railroad car on the Farmville and Powhatan Railroad, to drop off and pick up mail using the Mail on-the-fly technique. (This car was not designated as a railway post office. This hook and pouch system allowed crew on the train to drop off and pick up mail without the train slowing.
The area was long devoted to agriculture. In the colonial period, tobacco was a commodity crop, a labor-intensive crop that planters cultivated and processed with the use of enslaved African-American workers. Soils became exhausted and mixed crops were introduced in the late 18th and 19th centuries.
In addition to large lot suburban development, it is the site of the privately owned Metro Richmond Zoo. This has national certification.
