  • Showcase LION’S LAST STAND Leonidas, Which Is Greek for “Lion’S Son” Or “Lion-Like,” Was Born Around 540 B.C., the Son of T Y King Anaxandrides II
    could be of a delicate nature, the Persian threat to their freedom led many Greeks to unite SC together in an alliance. TH AL While the Persians’ superior numbers /6 E eventually overran the Greeks, the defenders’ 1 sacrifice has never been forgotten. Monuments to both the Spartans and the Thespians can be found at Thermopylae today. The last stand at Thermopylae has also captured the popular imagination thanks to books like Steven Pressfield’s fictional “Gates of Fire.” Movies include 1962’s “The 300 Spartans,” starring Richard Egan as Leonidas; and 2006’s “300,” with Gerard Butler portraying the Greek commander. SHOWCASE LION’S LAST STAND Leonidas, which is Greek for “Lion’s son” or “Lion-like,” was born around 540 B.C., the son of T Y King Anaxandrides II. At this time Sparta had two H kings who shared in ruling the state. One leader would be a descendant of the Agiad dynasty, as E M was Leonidas, while the other would be a S R descendant of Eurypon in this twin monarchy. IXTH A Leonidas was married to Gorgo, the daughter of his half-brother King Cleomenes I. At some point between 490 and 488 B.C., Leonidas became King after his half-brother went mad and committed suicide. Scott J. Dummitt and Bill Thomas Leonidas faced a difficult decision as the Persian invasion of Greece developed. Spartan cover the latest action figure- law forbade him from leading the army out of the kingdom during a religious festival being held at the time. However, it would be unthinkable to not related items.

As such they present an 12 excellent case study for an analysis of war through non-military 13 narratives. This article examines a sample of sets and figures produced 14 during the ‘golden age’ of toy soldiers, so as to ascertain how these 15 16 artefacts related to military developments and what light they can shed 17 on societal responses to conflict in this period. The figures and sets under 18 discussion are drawn from the catalogues of the major British and 19 German manufacturers of the period and are contextualised by the 20 21 activities of the companies that produced them. This focus enables the 22 article to compare and contrast various approaches to these artefacts 23 and to conclude on how toy soldier production in this period became 24 embroiled in the wider political and military conflict between the British 25 and German empires.

  • Restitution Report 2003/2004
    Translation from German RESTITUTION REPORT 2003/2004 SIXTH REPORT OF THE FEDERAL MINISTER FOR EDUCATION, SCIENCE AND CULTURE TO THE NATIONALRAT [LOWER CHAMBER OF THE AUSTRIAN PARLIAMENT] ON THE RESTITUTION OF ART OBJECTS FROM AUSTRIAN FEDERAL MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS Section 2 (3) of the Federal Statute of 4 December 1998 on the Restitution of Art Objects from the Austrian Federal Museums and Collections provides for an annual obligation to inform the Nationalrat of restitutions of art objects effected during the reporting period. The first report covered restitutions effected during the period from 19 December 1998 to 18 August 1999, the second report covered restitutions effected during the period from 27 October 1999 to 28 November 2000, the third one covered the period from 23 January 2001 to 1 October 2001, the fourth report covered the period from 10 April 2002 to 3 December 2002 and the fifth one covered the period from 11 March 2003 to 27 January 2004. All five reports were acknowledged by the Nationalrat. The purpose of the Restitution Act is to restitute art objects from the Austrian federal museums and collections which passed into the ownership of the Republic of Austria in the course or as a consequence of Nazi tyranny to the original owners or their legal successors. In order to fulfil this mission of the Act a systematic and complete review of the entire inventory of the Austrian federal museums and collections as to their provenance is necessary. The Commission for Provenance Research established in 1998 is fulfilling this task. The staff of the Commission is working in the individual federal museums and collections, where they inspect the inventories, archives and objects themselves as to indications of provenance, which they follow using relevant databases, card files and files from public archives.

MODERNISM PRESS RELEASE VIENNA 1900 BIRTH OF MODERNISM FROM 16TH MARCH 2019 The exhibition Vienna 1900. Birth of Modernism has been conceived as the Leopold Muse- um’s new permanent presentation. It affords insights into the enormous wealth and diver- sity of this era’s artistic and intellectual achievements with all their cultural, social, political and scientific implications. Based on the collection of the Leopold Museum compiled by Ru- dolf Leopold and complemented by select loans from more than 50 private and institutional collections, the exhibition conveys the atmosphere of the former metropolis Vienna in a unique manner and highlights the sense of departure characterized by contrasts prevalent at the turn of the century. The presentation spans three floors and features some 1,300 exhibits over more than 3,000 m2 of exhibition space, presenting a singular variety of media ranging from painting, graphic art, sculpture and photography, via glass, ceramics, metals, GUSTAV KLIMT textiles, leather and jewelry, all the way to items of furniture and entire furnishings of apart- Death and Life, 1910/11, reworked in 1915/16 ments. The exhibition, whose thematic emphases are complemented by a great number of Leopold Museum, Vienna archival materials, spans the period of around 1870 to 1930.

  • Rollouts of Fine Ware Pottery Using High Resolution 3D Meshes
    The 11th International Symposium on Virtual Reality, Archaeology and Cultural Heritage VAST (2010) A. Artusi, M. Joly-Parvex, G. Lucet, A. Ribes, and D. Pitzalis (Editors) Rollouts of Fine Ware Pottery using High Resolution 3D Meshes S. Bechtold1 and S. Krömker1 and H. Mara1 and B. Kratzmüller2 1Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing, Heidelberg University - Im Neuenheimer Feld 368, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany 2Collection of Antiquities, Vienna Museum of Art History - Burgring 10, 1010 Vienna, Austria Abstract A common part of the documentation of archaeological finds is the drawing of so-called rollouts. Rollouts provide a complete and continuous depiction of graphical elements on the surface of rotation-symmetric objects and are especially useful for the iconographic interpretation of figurative vase painting. In the past, rollouts were created either by manual drawing or photographically. We propose a new method to generate rollouts in which the tedious process of manual drawing or the disadvantage of having to decide on a specific projection in advance of any photographical process is replaced by the acquisition of a digital coloured surface model using a structured-light 3D scanner. This model is then used to generate high-quality rollouts with arbitrary projection parameters. To handle curved vessel profiles, we divide the vessel’s surface into multiple segments. Each segment is then approximated with a frustum which serves as a developable auxiliary surface. In the rollout generation process, the vessel’s surface is projected onto a frustum’s mantle, which is then developed into the image plane. The shape of each frustum is selected in such a way that projection distortions are minimized, but interrelated graphical features like figural friezes are still unrolled in one piece.
