Johann Bernhard Fischer Erlach, ‘Court Libary’, 1723-1726. (German)
Decorative with spacial awareness.
I had the brief, fleeting thought that maybe I post too many libraries… oops and now it’s gone. Onwards!!!

When Joseph-Nicephore Niepce took the first photograph in 1828, his photographic plate required an exposure of eight hours. That exposure time was drastically reduced across the course of the nineteenth century, so that by the 1890s the Collodion process had cut exposure times to two or three seconds.
Nevertheless, a three second exposure meant that subjects had to stand very still to avoid being blurred, and holding a smile for that period was tricky. As a result, we have a tendency to see our Victorian ancestors as even more formal and stern than they might have been.
These pictures are drawn from the Flickr group “The Smiling Victorian” and show a perhaps surprising side to the people who’s “now” was a hundred years before our own.

Remains Of WWII Plane Found In Sahara Desert
A World War II plane a British pilot crashed in the Saharan Desert has been found frozen in time 70 years later. The Kittyhawk P-40 is an aviation time capsule that has remained unseen and untouched since it crash-landed in June 1942. It is thought the pilot, believed to have been Flight Sergeant Dennis Copping (24), survived the crash and initially used his parachute for shelter. He may have then made a desperate and ultimately futile attempt to reach civilisation — some 200 miles away — by walking out into the desert. Now a search is to begin for the airman’s remains — as aviation experts and historians begin an operation to recover and display the P-40 aircraft in his memory. The chance find was made by an oil worker exploring a remote region of the Western Desert in Egypt. It is more than 200 miles from the nearest town in a vast expanse of largely featureless terrain.
