Giuseppe Maria Longhi (13 October 1766, Monza - 2 January 1831, Milan) was an Italian painter and engraver, in the Neo-Classical style.

Biography 

He was born to Carlo Francesco Longhi, a silk merchant and antiques dealer, and his wife Cecilia née Caronni. His initial studies took place in the seminaries of Celana, Monza and Milan. His teachers included Antonio Mussi (1751-1810), the future Rector of the Biblioteca Ambrosiana, who noticed and encouraged his drawing skills. When he completed his studies in 1786, he went to work for his father, but continued to pursue his interests in art through self-study.

In 1790, the Accademia di Brera established an engraving school and offered scholarships. He was able to obtain one and settled in Milan. There, he studied with Giulio Traballesi. In 1792 Giocondo Albertolli, a professor at the Accademia, commissioned him to produce his first solo work; a burin engraving. That same year, he took a trip to Rome, where he studied anatomy. 
 
After achieving technical mastery and making his reputation as a portraitist, he was appointed a professor of engraving at the Accademia in 1798. Three years later, he was called on to participate in the Consulte de Lyon; in return for an engraving of Napoleon he had made in 1797, from a painting by Antoine-Jean Gros, done at the artist's request. This was followed by a trip to Paris, in the company of Giuseppe Bossi and Francesco Rosaspina. There, he made lasting contacts with several famous French artists. When Napoleon arrived in Milan to be crowned King of Italy, Longhi was a guest at the ceremony. In 1810, he was named a Knight in the Order of the Iron Crown.
 
His successes enabled him to spend more time on projects of personal interest. The years 1818 to 1819 were devoted to a large copper plate depicting the Marriage of the Virgin. It was published in 1820. He also created copies of works by Raphael and Leonardo. Many of his final years were spent working on two plates of The Last Judgment by Michelangelo. Only a few print proofs survive. The year before his death he published La Calcografia, a book on copper engraving.

He died in 1831, at the age of sixty-four, from an apoplectic fit.

His numerous students included Pietro Anderloni, , Michele Bisi, Paolo Caronni, Giovita Garavaglia, Samuele Jesi, Ernesta Legnani Bisi and Giuseppe Marri. The largest collections of his prints are held by the  and the . A street in Milan has been named after him.

The Treaty of Namslau or Namysłów, also known as the Peace of Namslau/Namysłów, was a peace treaty between King Charles IV of Bohemia and King Casimir III of Poland. It was signed at Namysłów () in Silesia, on 22 November 1348 after the Polish-Bohemian War of 1345–1348.

Since the restoration of a Polish kingdom under Przemysł II in 1295, the Crown had again disputed sovereignty over the many Duchies of Silesia with the neighbouring Kingdom of Bohemia. As King Wenceslaus II of Bohemia had been crowned Polish king in 1300, his successors from the House of Luxembourg, Bohemian rulers since 1310, also claimed the Polish Crown as their heritage. They took advantage of the tensions within the Piast dynasty and the fragmentation of the former Duchy of Silesia north of the Bohemian borders. By promises as well as by pressure, with the exception of Duke Bolko II the Small, an increasing number of the Silesian Piasts had recognized the sovereignty of Charles' father and predecessor, King John the Blind, from 1327–35.

When King Casimir III succeeded his father Władysław I the Elbow-high in 1333, he found the Polish borders threatened not only by the Bohemian kingdom, but also by the Margraves of Brandenburg, who had extended their territory further eastwards into the Neumark region, and foremost by the State of the Teutonic Order, whose plans for expansion had sparked the Polish–Teutonic War (1326–1332) over Pomerelia, Kuyavia and the Dobrzyń Land. In view of the hostile superiority, the Polish king sought for peaceful conflict resolutions: he concluded the Treaty of Trentschin in 1335, renouncing the suzerainty over Silesia, and in 1343 signed the Treaty of Kalisz with the Teutonic Order, which sealed the loss of Pomerelia.
 
After tensions had settled, Casimir acted cleverly in the rising conflict between the Luxembourgs and the Imperial House of Wittelsbach around the heritage of Countess Margaret of Tyrol. He was able to convert Emperor Louis IV to his column and occupied several Silesian territories south of the Polish border, including the castle of Namysłów. However, the Luxembourgs gained the upper hand, when King John's son Charles IV was elected King of the Romans in 1346. Casimir III had to sign the peace treaty at Namysłów, which affirmed the previous Treaty of Trentschin ratified at Cracow (1339) and Prague (1341). In the Namslau treaty, Casimir again renounced all Polish claims on Silesia, in return for Charles waiving all Bohemian claims on the Polish throne. After the 1368 death of Duke Bolko II, all of Silesia passed to the Lands of the Bohemian Crown.

The Kebar Dam is a masonry arch dam on the Kebar River, Iran, located near a town of the same name,
23 km southeast of Qom, near the village of Zanburak in Jannatabad, Qom. The dam is an early arch dam and was the first arch dam constructed by the Mongolians, around 1300 AD.
It is the oldest surviving arch dam.
The dam is 26m tall and 55m wide and was constructed for irrigation water supply. It was originally 24m tall but 2m of height was added in either the beginning or middle of the 17th century. The arch of the dam was of normal curvature with a radius of 35m and angle of 45-degrees. While the dam sat on limestone, its curve rested on two winged walls that served as abutments. The downstream face of the dam was vertical until near its abutment where it slightly curves out. Near the dam's right, or western, abutment there is a 10m deep cylindrical hole which served as an intake and outlet works for the dam. The outlet works is located at the bottom and is a larger opening but there are various smaller openings throughout the shaft to release water. The dam impounded a small reservoir that is no longer used and is mostly filled with silt.

Chandler (or Chandler Siding), in the far north-west corner of the state of South Australia, is a rail siding on the Adelaide-Darwin rail corridor. It is about  north of the town of Marla near the junction of the Stuart Highway and the entry to the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Aboriginal lands (APY Lands).

It was named in 1872 by the state government after an operator on the Overland Telegraph Line who lived nearby.

It was one of nine sidings to which names were assigned in 1978 in connection with the Tarcoola to Alice Springs railway, which was completed in 1980. Although the experiential tourism train, The Ghan, passes once a week on its journey between Adelaide and Darwin, the train is not accessible at Chandler.
