Place of birth
The place of birth( POB) or birthplace is the place where a person was born.
This place is often used in legal documents, together with name and date of birth, to uniquely identify a person.
As a general rule with respect to passports, the place of birth is determined to be the country that currently has" sovereignty" over the actual place of birth, regardless of when the birth actually occurred.
The place of birth is not necessarily the place where the parents of the new baby live.
If the baby is born in a hospital in another place, that place is the place of birth.
In many countries, this also means that the government requires that the birth of the new baby is registered in the place of birth.
Some countries place less or no importance on the place of birth, instead using alternative geographical characteristics for the purpose of identity documents.
For example, Sweden has used the concept of" födelsehemortdomicile of birth") since 1947.
This means that the domicile of the baby's mother is the registered place of birth.
The location of the maternity ward or other physical birthplace is considered unimportant.
Similarly, Switzerland uses the concept of" Heimatortlieu d'origineluogo d'origineplace of origin" in German, French and Italian respectively).
A child born to Swiss parents is automatically assigned the place of origin of the parent with the same last name, so the child either gets their mother's or father's place of origin.
A child born to one Swiss parent and one foreign parent acquires the place of origin of their Swiss parent.
In a Swiss passport and identity card, the holder's place of origin is stated, not their place of birth.
In some countries( primarily in the Americas), the place of birth automatically determines the nationality of the baby, a practice often referred to by the Latin phrase" jus soli".
Almost all countries outside the Americas instead attribute nationality based on the nationality( ies) of the baby's parents( referred to as" jus sanguinis").
There can be some confusion regarding the place of birth if the birth takes place in an unusual way: when babies are born on an airplane or at sea, difficulties can arise.
The place of birth of such a person depends on the law of the countries involved, which include the nationality of the plane or ship, the nationality( ies) of the parents and/ or the location of the plane or ship( if the birth occurs in the territorial waters or airspace of a country).
Some administrative forms may request the applicant's" country of birth".
It is important to determine from the requester whether the information requested refers to the applicant's" place of birth" or" nationality at birth".
For US citizens born abroad who under the US Constitution acquire US citizenship at the time of birth, the nationality at birth will be USA( American), while the place of birth would be the country in which the actual birth takes place.
Franciscus Carree
Franciscus Carree or Frans Carré (ca.
1630 - 1669) was a Dutch painter.
He was either born in Leeuwarden or Antwerp.
In 1649 he married Janneke Padtbrugge in The Hague where he became a member of the guild, and spent most of his career.
Between 1658 and 1661 he lived in Amsterdam.
It is not known who was his instructor, but he grew to be sufficiently esteemed to be appointed first painter to the Stadtholder William Frederick in Leeuwarden in 1664.
He excelled in painting landscapes and village festivals, but his works are little known outside his own country.
He left an etching of the funeral catafalque of the Stadtholder in November 1664.
He died at Amsterdam, The Hague, or Leeuwarden in 1669.
Michiel Carree
Michiel Carree or Carré (1657 – October 1727) was a Dutch Golden Age painter.
Carree was born in The Hague.
He received his first instructions from his elder brother Hendrik Carré, and afterwards became the scholar of Nicolaas Berchem, but unfortunately did not profit by the example and practice of so excellent a master, but preferred to follow the style of a much inferior artist named Gabriel van der Leeuw.
According to Houbraken he was in England and knew Pieter Gerritsz van Roestraten.
Houbraken also stated Carree was the teacher of the painter Jan de Visscher, and mentioned him again as his informant about a portrait by Katharina Rozee.
Houbraken also stated that Michiel Carré resided some time in England, and that his works were not popular here, but Horace Walpole makes no mention of him in his 'Anecdotes.'
He was a landscape painter of some celebrity, since at the death of Abraham Begeyn he was invited to Berlin by the King of Prussia, who appointed him one of his painters.
On the death of Frederick he returned to Holland, and resided chiefly at Alkmaar, where he died in 1728.
His greatest merit was the uncommon facility and baldness of his pencil, which was well suited to the works upon which he was principally engaged, the decoration of halls and large apartments.
One of his best productions is to be seen in a saloon at the Hague, where he has represented in a large landscape, the "History of Jacob and Esau".
Some of his easel paintings, landscapes with cattle, are very good.
Examples of these can be found in the Brunswick Gallery, and the Rotterdam Museum.
He died in Alkmaar.
Jacob Campo Weyerman mentioned his daughter Alida Carree, who was a good watercolor painter and ivory fan painter.
He also mentioned a son Hendrik Carré the Younger who died in the Hague in 1726.
According to the RKD he was the son of Franciscus Carré and he worked in Amsterdam 1686-1692, England 1692-1695, and Berlin 1697-1713.
He is known for Italianate landscapes and was court painter in Berlin to Frederick III of Brandenburg.

Sennedjem
The Ancient Egyptian artisan Sennedjem lived in Set Maat( translated as" The Place of Truth"), contemporary Deir el- Medina, on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Thebes, during the reigns of Seti I and Ramesses II.
Sennedjem had the title" Servant in the Place of Truth".
He was buried along with his wife, Iyneferti, and family in a tomb in the village necropolis.
His tomb was discovered January 31, 1886.
When Sennedjem's tomb was found, in it there was regular furniture from his home, including a stool and a bed, which he actually used when he was alive.
His titles included Servant in the Place of Truth, meaning that he worked on the excavation and decoration of the nearby royal tombs.
