  • Discover the Styles and Techniques of French Master Carvers and Gilders
    LOUIS STYLE rench rames F 1610–1792F SEPTEMBER 15, 2015–JANUARY 3, 2016 What makes a frame French? Discover the styles and techniques of French master carvers and gilders. This magnificent frame, a work of art in its own right, weighing 297 pounds, exemplifies French style under Louis XV (reigned 1723–1774). Fashioned by an unknown designer, perhaps after designs by Juste-Aurèle Meissonnier (French, 1695–1750), and several specialist craftsmen in Paris about 1740, it was commissioned by Gabriel Bernard de Rieux, a powerful French legal official, to accentuate his exceptionally large pastel portrait and its heavy sheet of protective glass. On this grand scale, the sweeping contours and luxuriously carved ornaments in the corners and at the center of each side achieve the thrilling effect of sculpture. At the top, a spectacular cartouche between festoons of flowers surmounted by a plume of foliage contains attributes symbolizing the fair judgment of the sitter: justice (represented by a scale and a book of laws) and prudence (a snake and a mirror). PA.205 The J. Paul Getty Museum © 2015 J. Paul Getty Trust LOUIS STYLE rench rames F 1610–1792F Frames are essential to the presentation of paintings. They protect the image and permit its attachment to the wall. Through the powerful combination of form and finish, frames profoundly enhance (or detract) from a painting’s visual impact. The early 1600s through the 1700s was a golden age for frame making in Paris during which functional surrounds for paintings became expressions of artistry, innovation, taste, and wealth. The primary stylistic trendsetter was the sovereign, whose desire for increas- ingly opulent forms of display spurred the creative Fig.

  • Ch. 3 Section 4: Life in the English Colonies Colonial Governments the English Colonies in North America All Had Their Own Governments
    Ch. 3 Section 4: Life in the English Colonies Colonial Governments The English colonies in North America all had their own governments. Each government was given power by a charter. The English monarch had ultimate authority over all of the colonies. A group of royal advisers called the Privy Council set English ​ ​ colonial policies. Colonial Governors and Legislatures Each colony had a governor who served as head of the government. Most governors were assisted by an advisory council. In royal colonies the English king or queen selected the governor and the council members. In proprietary colonies, the ​ ​ proprietors chose all of these officials. In a few colonies, such as Connecticut, the ​ ​ people elected the governor. In some colonies the people also elected representatives to help make laws and ​ ​ set policy. These officials served on assemblies. Each colonial assembly passed laws ​ ​ that had to be approved first by the advisory council and then by the governor. Established in 1619, Virginia's assembly was the first colonial legislature in ​ ​ ​ ​ North America. At first it met as a single body, but was later split into two houses. The first house was known as the Council of State. The governor's advisory council and the ​ ​ London Company selected its members. The House of Burgesses was the assembly's ​ ​ second house. The members were elected by colonists. It was the first democratically elected body in the English colonies. In New England the center of politics was the town meeting. In town meetings ​ ​ people talked about and decided on issues of local interest, such as paying for schools.

    FRANCIS PARKMAN COUNT FRONTENAC AND NEW FRANCE UNDER LOUIS XIV 2008 – All rights reserved Non commercial use permitted COUNT FRONTENAC AND NEW FRANCE UNDER LOUIS XIV. BY FRANCIS PARKMAN, AUTHOR OF "PIONEERS OF FRANCE IN THE NEW WORLD," "THE JESUITS IN NORTH AMERICA," "THE DISCOVERY OF THE GREAT WEST," AND "THE OLD REGIME IN CANADA." PREFACE. The events recounted in this book group themselves in the main about a single figure, that of Count Frontenac, the most remarkable man who ever represented the crown of France in the New World. From strangely unpromising beginnings, he grew with every emergency, and rose equal to every crisis. His whole career was one of conflict, sometimes petty and personal, sometimes of momentous consequence, involving the question of national ascendancy on this continent. Now that this question is put at rest for ever, it is hard to conceive, the anxiety which it wakened in our forefathers. But for one rooted error of French policy, the future of the English-speaking races in America would have been more than endangered. Under the rule of Frontenac occurred the first serious collision of the rival powers, and the opening of the grand scheme of military occupation by which France strove to envelop and hold in check the industrial populations of the English colonies. It was he who made that scheme possible. In "The Old Regime in Canada," I tried to show from what inherent causes this wilderness empire of the Great Monarch fell at last before a foe, superior indeed in numbers, but lacking all the forces that belong to a system of civil and military centralization.

In fact, Louis-Philippe Turcotte tells us that there were fewer than 5,000 inhabitants in all of New France in 1667, but that number increased exponentially with new arrivals and with each new generation of French Canadiens. By the mid-19th century, the land could no longer support the population, and the push and pull of political and economic forces led to a massive emigration of French-Canadians into the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

  • A 42-Year-Old King with a Cavitary Pulmonary Lesion and Intestinal Perforation Sidney Goldfischer, M.D., and Michel Janis, M.D
    139 A 42-YEAR-OLD KING WITH A CAVITARY PULMONARY LESION AND INTESTINAL PERFORATION SIDNEY GOLDFISCHER, M.D., AND MICHEL JANIS, M.D. Department of Pathology Albert Einstein College of Medicine Bronx, New York INTESTINAL tuberculosis, usually involving the terminal ileum and ce- cum, may occur as a primary manifestation or as a complication of primary pulmonary tuberculosis. One of the aphorisms of Hippocrates warned that "phthisical persons die if diarrhea sets in." Prior to the introduction of chemotherapy, intestinal ulceration with fistula formation was a common finding at autopsy in patients with active cavitary lesions;' tuberculous peritonitis was a rare complication.2 The association of intes- tinal ulceration, free perforation, and peritonitis with a cavitary pulmonary lesion was vividly described in 1643 in the autopsy report of Louis XIII.3 We have found the omentum eroded, the small intestines enormously swollen, diminished in color and bathed in a quantity of muddy, purulent, serous fluid, the external surface of the liver pale, as if it had been boiled, the stomach filled with a blackish fluid that stained its lining and containing one worm approxi- mately 15 cm. in length and several other small worms, the duodenum huge and filled with bilious material, the jejunum is filled with the same material and entirely yellow inside, the ileum less tinted and less filled with a thicker material, the cecum from its origin is red and devoid of its meaty membrane, the process continuing with increasing severity until the end of the colon where an ulcer that pierced the intestine is caused by the descent of the mud exuding from the inferior mesentery that is ulcerated in several places from which more than a jug-full of spilled, purulent material accumulates throughout the abdomen, bath- ing the intestines.
