Grup escultòric La cançó popular (1909) de Miquel Blay, bastit a la façana original del Palau de la Música Catalana. El Palau fou edificat per Domènech i Montaner, home clau en la presa de consciència política del catalanisme a final del segle XIX col·laborant en la fundació de la Lliga de Catalunya així com presidint la primera assemblea de la Unió Catalanista, signant les Bases de Manresa i presidint els Jocs Florals. El Palau de la Música Catalana recull totes les manifestació simbòliques dels ideals catalanistes i acollí actes polítics com les assemblees de Solidaritat Catalana. La dictadura de Primo de Rivera ordenà la clausura del Palau durant quatre mesos entre el 24 de juny i el 13 d'octubre de 1925.

El cardenal Richelieu ocupà el poder polític a França entre 1624 i 1642. En la imatge, obra de Henri Motte, se'l veu en el setge de La Rochelle (1627-1628), en un episodi de l'enfrontament del regne de França contra els hugonots, que tenien el control de la ciutat. Richelieu fou un dels artífexs de la revocació de l'edicte de Nantes i la persecució dels hugonots a França. Malgrat la seva posició com a cardenal catòlic, Richelieu decidí en un cert moment fer prevaldre els motius polítics per sobre dels religiosos en les seves aliances militars, finalitzant el que fins aleshores havien estat una sèrie de guerres purament religioses. Aquest fet significarà per a molts historiadors la fi de la Reforma protestant

Una imagen de satélite de la NASA de la desembocadura del Amazonas nos muestra algunos de los flujos de energía en la atmósfera: los rayos solares calientan la superficie terrestre, las tierras en primer lugar (con mayor rapidez) y las aguas después (más lentamente). El calentamiento de las tierras calienta a su vez el aire superficial, que se eleva, enfriándose y condensándose la humedad atmosférica que se convierte en agua líquida que forma las nubes. Mientras tanto, el agua de los grandes ríos amazónicos está absorbiendo la radiación solar más lentamente por lo que no hay evaporación de sus aguas y, por lo tanto, tampoco hay calentamiento del aire en esas áreas, no hay convección ni condensación en ellas.

Qualitative depiction of the electric-field lines between the fingers of a comb-drive actuator. There are four different types of fields that have a distinct impact on the actuation in the work-energy picture of actuation. The field lines that connect the vertical sides of the fingers (blue) and those that connect the top sides of the fingers (red) are associated with the component of the force that tends to align the fingers. Those that connect the top sides of one finger with the vertical sides or the distant top sides of the other (green), tend to disengage the fingers. The field lines that connect the tips of the finger with the sides of its neighbors (brown) do not contribute to the actuation force.[1]

Ein Körper (präziser ein Polyeder), links mit Flat Shading, rechts mit Gouraud Shading gerendert, damit er wie eine Kugel (oder ein Rotationsellipsoid) aussieht. Die Beschreibung des Körpers liegt als Drahtgittermodell vor, denn relevant ist ausschließlich Fläche, nicht das Volumen! Eine echte Kugel ließe sich mit sehr viel weniger Parametern beschreiben: Mittelpunkt + Radius. Stattdessen beschreibt man Oberflächen durch viele Vertices und verbindet diese jeweils mit Geraden untereinander. Manche Modelle schreiben Dreiecke vor, andere Vierecke. Berechnungen werden auf diese Vertices angewandt. Dieses Methode wird nicht nur in der Bildsynthese angewandt, sondern z. B. auch bei Numerischen Simulationen (FEM).

Eine perfekte rumdum runde Kugel ließe sich mit sehr viel weniger Parametern beschreiben: Mittelpunkt + Radius. Stattdessen benutzt man aber einen Polyeder und lässt diesen mit Hilfe von Gouraud Shading wie eine Kugel aussehen. Siehe dazu insbesondere Interpolative Shading-Techniken.

Berechnungen werden entweder auf Vertices angewandt, oder aber auf die einzelnen Flächen, die diese jeweils aufspannen. Dieses Methode wird nicht nur in der Bildsynthese angewandt, sondern z.B. auch bei Numerischen Simulationen (FEM).
As in the main period of Roman occupation of Britain, Staines Bridge was the main crossing on the road from London to much of Hampshire and to the south-western counties (excluding their northern parts such as Gloucestershire, north Somerset and north Wiltshire which could be accessed via the Bath Road).
 It returned to use for transport to Salisbury, Winchester, north Hampshire, Southampton, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall from at least 1222 until the late 1940s. The town then became bypassed by long-distance road traffic using the Runnymede Bridge (1961) designed by Edwin Lutyens. It further became bypassed by long-distance traffic after the construction of the M4 in England in 1971 and most of the M3 by 1974.

This Casaquin (1725 – 40, Italian) jacket from the MET Museum features woollen embroidery of birds, pagodas, and exotic flowers. The flowers reflect on the chinoiseries style commonly used by designers throughout the 18th century.[5] The figures stitched which appear as Jesters can be described as Grotesque.[9] This is another style also used commonly throughout the 18th century in which figures were represented through distorted shapes creating a mysterious or even unpleasant image. This design represents the influence of the 17th century designer Jean Berain.[5] The postures of the figures depicted are also identified as a symbol commonly used throughout the 18th century to represent the 4 Continents.[10]

Representation of the Santisima Trinidad, the largest ship in the combined fleet, with 4 decks and 136 guns, under full sail. The wind is to be supposed blowing into the plane of the picture. The position of the flag and the curvature of the sails reveal the direction of the wind. The helmsman usually had a pennant flying that would tell him wind direction. In the picture, the wind is from the port quarter. The ship is depicted at maximum headway. If the ship were to wear, it would rotate clockwise. With the wind directly astern, the pressure differential between the inside and outside of the sails would drop and they would lose curvature. The observer is looking at the weather side. The lee side is hidden.
The Spanish warship Holy Trinity (Santísima Trinidad). Known as "El Escorial of the seas", it was the only ship in the Battle of Trafalgar that had four decks and 136 cannons.

English: This is a star map for the celestial globe of Su Song (1020-1101), a Chinese scientist and mechanical engineer of the Song Dynasty (960-1279). It was first published in the year 1092, in Su's book known as the Xin Yi Xiang Fa Yao (Wade-Giles: Hsin Yi Hsiang Fa Yao). On this star map there are 14 xiu (lunar mansions) on Mercator's projection. The equator is represented by the horizontal straight line running through the star chart, while the ecliptic curves above it. Note the unequal breadth of the lunar mansions on the map. Su Song's star maps had the hour circles between the xiu (lunar mansions) forming the astronomical meridians, with stars marked in quasi-orthomorphic cylindrical projection on each side of the equator, and thus was in accordance to their north polar distances. Not until the work of Gerard Mercator in 1569 was a celestial map of this projection created in the Western world (Needham, Volume 4, Part 3, 569). This picture appears on page 277 of Joseph Needham's book Science and Civilization in China: Volume 3, Mathematics and the Sciences of the Heavens and the Earth.
Die verkenning van Noord-Carolina se Atlantiese eilande deur Engeland het so vroeg soos 1584 onder die bevel van Sir Walter Raleigh begin. Die eerste kolonie is weens spanninge met plaaslike Indiane in 1586 ontruim. In 1587 het 117 setlaars uit Plymouth in Suidwes-England 'n tweede poging onderneem om 'n permanente nedersetting op Roanoke Island onder leiding van goewerneur John White te vestig. White het na Engeland teruggeseil om voorrade aan te vul. Die Spaanse Armada het sy terugkeer vertraag. Toe hy in Augustus 1590 weer op Roanoke Island voet aan wal gesit het, het hy nie 'n enkele siel meer aangetref nie. Die setlaars se lot is onbekend; sedertdien word die Engelse nedersetting The Lost Colony genoem

Text Appearing Before Image: PEOPLE & PLACES Text Appearing After Image: America's First Mystery: The Lost Colony By P a m Smith M -ore than 400 years ago, the real-life drama of Tlie Lost Colony played out on North Carolina's Roanoke Island. A brave band of English settlers — determined to establish the first permanent English settlement in the New World — embarked on an uncertain venture in 1587. Then they vanished without a trace. The play by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paul Green dramatizes the historic record of the exploratory voyages commissioned by Sir Walter Raleigh between 1584 and 1587. "It's America's first great mystery," says Rhett B. White, executive manager of Tlie Lost Colony, the first and longest-running outdoor symphonic drama in the country. The play, produced by the Roanoke Island Historical Association (RIHA), debuted on July 4, 1937. In its 66 seasons, more than three million people have watched the story unfold under the stars at Waterside Theatre on the historic site where the settlers were seen last. The 2003 season runs through Aug. 22 and is under the artistic direction of Terrence Mann for the third consecutive year. Mann — an award- winning Broadway actor/director and film star — cut his acting teeth as a member of Tlie Lost Colony cast in the 1970s. Continued LEFT: The Lost Colony settlers seek the protection of Manteo. The cast traditionally includes local and professional actors. Even Andy Griffith launched his career in the 1952 production.
