  • Impressionism in London 1
    ART HISTORY REVEALED Dr. Laurence Shafe This course is an eclectic wander through art history. It consists of twenty two-hour talks starting in September 2018 and the topics are largely taken from exhibitions held in London during 2018. The aim is not to provide a guide to the exhibition but to use it as a starting point to discuss the topics raised and to show the major art works. An exhibition often contains 100 to 200 art works but in each two-hour talk I will focus on the 20 to 30 major works and I will often add works not shown in the exhibition to illustrate a point. References and Copyright • The talks are given to a small group of people and all the proceeds, after the cost of the hall is deducted, are given to charity. • The notes are based on information found on the public websites of Wikipedia, Tate, National Gallery, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Khan Academy and the Art Story. • If a talk uses information from specific books, websites or articles these are referenced at the beginning of each talk and in the ‘References’ section of the relevant page. The talks that are based on an exhibition use the booklets and book associated with the exhibition. • Where possible images and information are taken from Wikipedia under 1 an Attribution-Share Alike Creative Commons License. • If I have forgotten to reference your work then please let me know and I will add a reference or delete the information. 1 ART HISTORY REVEALED 1.

  • Chertsey Division
    County of Surrey CHERTSEY DIVISION Register of Electors, 1918 An Alphabetical Index of Naval/Military and/or Absent Voters Surrey History Centre Reference: CC802/27/1 This document contains the names of individuals who were included in the 1918 Electoral Register for the Chertsey Parliamentary Division of Surrey, and who were recorded as being either Naval, Military and/or absent voters. Notes: Not all Naval/Military voters may have been correctly designated “NM” and not all absent voters may have been Naval/Military personnel, in which case their entries are highlighted in orange text. Red text denotes a possible error, or information derived from a different source, such as the 1919 Chertsey Electoral Register. This is particularly the case for the Parish of Bisley (Dii), because parts of the pages for this Parish are missing in the Electoral Register held at the Surrey History Centre. Entry Nos. 547-573, 578-628, 634-660, 794-812 & 825 are affected. Some individuals were killed in action, or otherwise died, in the period between when the Register was compiled and the cessation of hostilities in November 1918. Some voters may appear more than once. This Index is therefore intended only as a guide to further research and no guarantee of accuracy is given.
