  • The Glorifying History of Golconda Fort
    High Technology Letters ISSN NO : 1006-6748 The Glorifying History of Golconda Fort Dr.K.Karpagam, Assistant Professor, Department of History, D.G.Government Arts College for Women, Mayiladuthurai, Nagapattinam District – 609001 Abstract India is a vast country with a lot of diversity in her physical and social environment. We see people around us speaking different languages, having different religions and practising different rituals. We can also see these diversities in their food habits and dress patterns. Besides, look at the myriad forms of dance and music in our country. But within all these diversities there is an underlying unity which acts as a cementing force. The intermingling of people has been steadily taking place in India over centuries. A number of people of different racial stock, ethnic backgrounds and religious beliefs have settled down here. Let us not forget that the composite and dynamic character of Indian culture is a result of the rich contributions of all these diverse cultural groups over a long period of time. The distinctive features of Indian culture and its uniqueness are the precious possession of all Indians. Significance : The art and architecture of a nation is the cultural identity of the country towards the other countries and that's why the country which has a beach art and architecture is always prestigious to the other countries. The architecture of India is rooted in its history, culture and religion. Among a number of architectural styles and traditions, the contrasting Hindu temple architecture and Indo- Islamic architecture are the best known historical styles. Both of these, but especially the former, have a number of regional styles within them.

  • The Wittelsbach-Graff Owned by the Legendary Diamond House – Graff
    Historical diamond: The Wittelsbach-Graff owned by the legendary diamond house – Graff An introduction to the company Graff diamonds is owned by the billionaire English jeweller, Laurence Graff. Born in 1938 to a Jewish family in the East End of London, his Russian father, Harry Graff, and Romanian mother, Rebecca Segal, lived a modest but hard-working life bringing up their son in the 1940s. His grandmother, too, was a hugely influential character in Graff’s life. She would administer advice to all the family and, despite being deeply religious, she was a shrewd businesswoman in a time when women were only just beginning to feel emancipation with the onset of World War Two. Growing up amongst the falling bombs of the war, Graff went to school at St George’s School in Shadwell and helped his mother in her sweet shop when he wasn’t at school. It was through this experience of being immersed in a busy Jewish community, living near the famous Hessel Street market, that Graff learnt about the ways of day-to-day trading and he developed a keen appetite for business. Aged only 15 years, he began his first job, employed as a jeweller’s apprentice in the famed streets of Hatton Garden in London. Employed for only three months, Graff was told by his employer that ’he would never make the grade’ 1 Undeterred, Graff attended Central St Martins College, then known as Sir John Cass Art College, whilst working for a different jeweller, but again, was made redundant when the company became bankrupt.
