Sethos I Before Horus, by Unknown Artist (c.1280 BCE)

Sethos I was the father of Ramesses II (also known as Ozymandias). In the wallpainting, Sethos is receiving pharaonic regalia to emphasise his power and military success.

Link: Ozymandias, by Percy Bysshe Shelley
Mona Lisa, by Leonardo da Vinci (1503)

The smile of Mona Lisa, also known as a Lisa Gherardini, is playful and ambiguous – almost like she is hiding a secret.

Link: My Last Duchess, by Robert Browning
Landscape with the Fall of Icarus, by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1558)

An illustration of the dangers of pride and ambition. From soaring so high, Icarus is barely noticeable after his fall and life simply carries on around him.

Link: Jekyll and Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson
Experiment with a Bird in an Air Pump, by Joseph Wright of Derby (1768)

A wild-eyed scientist, onlookers who seem both intrigued and horrified, and a strong contrast between darkness and light.

Link: Jekyll and Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson
Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog, by Caspar David Friedrich (1818)

A melancholy figure stands alone amidst a sweepingly dynamic, powerful landscape.

Link: The Prelude, by William Wordsworth
Anatomical Pieces, by Théodore Géricault (1818-20)

A brutal, unglamorous and disturbing picture of body parts that seem to have been carelessly discarded and thrown into a pile.

Link: Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley
Norwegian Mountain Landscape, by Johan Cristian Dahl (1819)

The rocks in Johan Dahl’s Norwegian Mountain Landscape first appear to be gentle and inviting, but on a second glance seem much more dramatic and threatening.

Link: The Prelude, by William Wordsworth
The City, by August Strindberg (1903)

The sea is darkly turbulent and the grey sky is full of menace. The city of the Stockholm, brightly lit in the distance, is made to seem very small by comparison.

Link: Storm on the Island, by Seamus Heaney
Metropolis, by George Grosz (1916-17)

A blood red, claustrophobic cityscape in which ghostly figures seem to climb, trample and scramble away from imminent danger.

Link: London, by William Blake
Invasion Pattern, Normandy, by Eric Aldwinckle (1945)

A strangely calm image that, at least initially, doesn’t seem to depict a battle scene. The distance of the viewer’s perspective evokes a fleeting sense of contemplation and control.

Link: Kamikaze, by Beatrice Garland
Izzy Orts, by Edward Burra (1955)

The vacant, troubled stare of the sailor in the foreground contrasts with the celebratory scene behind him. He seems completely out of place and isolated whilst life goes on around him.

Link: Remains, by Simon Armitage
Painting 150, by Manolo Millares (1961)

A dark, abstract image evocative of a primitive human body in the throes of both construction and deconstruction.

Links: Jekyll and Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson
War, by Marc Chagall (1964-66)

An overcrowded cart leaves a burning city as people twist in anguish and despair. A white lamb is clearly visible, placed next to a shadowy image of Jesus to represent the sacrifice of innocent people.

Link: War Photographer, by Carol Ann Duffy
View of Madrid from Torres Blancas, by Edward Burra (1976-82)

The soft morning light helps to transform what would ordinarily be a mundane, ugly cityscape into something altogether more beautiful and majestic.

Link: The Emigrée, by Carol Rumens

More from History

This is THEFT!

Indians had Algebra BEFORE Mμslim prophet & religion was even born.

Here is Bakhshali Manuscript dating back to 3rd century CE. It is an Algebraic treatise. Have you anything like this from the Arabian desert? No, you simply plagiarized Algebra from Indians! https://t.co/cWXRNYMgDt


The Bakhshali manuscript, which has been carbon dated to 3rd century CE, is an ancient Hindu treatise on Arithmetic and Algebra.

The Algebraic problems deal with simultaneous equations, quadratic equations, arithmetic
geometric progressions & quadratic indeterminate equations.


Bakhshali isn't earliest Indian Algebraic treatise. Early Algebra is found in Shulba Sutras dating back to at least 800 BC. Traditional Algebra reached its pinnacle in the works of Aryabhata & Bhaskara.

What makes Bakhshali special is it offers mathematical proof to its theories


It is surprising to see that even after the ancient Indian algebraic treatise has been carbon dated to 3rd century CE by Oxford, they persist with "oh we invented Algebra. It is Halal".

A brief examination of the origins of "Halal Algebra" follows

https://t.co/eFIZ98FDrI


The earliest work of "Arabic Algebra" is the "Al-Kitāb Al-Jabr wal-muqābala" by Al Khwarizmi. The term "Algebra" comes from this book ("Al Jabr").

Before writing his treatise, Al Khwarizmi visited India. His book is a plagiarism from Indian Mathematics and an obvious one at that

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”

Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?

A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:


2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to

- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal

3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:

Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.

Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.

4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?

To get clarity.

You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.

It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.

5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”

Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
Oh my Goodness!!!

I might have a panic attack due to excitement!!

Read this thread to the end...I just had an epiphany and my mind is blown. Actually, more than blown. More like OBLITERATED! This is the thing! This is the thing that will blow the entire thing out of the water!


Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?


Were "golden tickets" inside the envelopes??


Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Review crumbs on the board re: 'gold'.
