 The plunder of the so-called New World—gold, weapons, pelts, small statues, and even captive Indigenous people—are presented to the court of Spain in this scene of Christopher Columbus’s return to Castile in 1493 after his first voyage to the Caribbean. The painting represents a celebratory view of Columbus as triumphant explorer, his patrons, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, rising to receive him and his crew. In reality, during his four sojourns in the Americas, Columbus and his men committed atrocities on the Taíno, Arawak, and other Indigenous peoples, enslaving them, torturing them, and massacring them.

	c. ~~19th or 20th century~~<br>		ca. 1907 - 1910<br>
			The point of view of this image captures the almost inconceivable scale of the blast furnaces, smokestacks and conveyor belts of a steel mill. The foreground railway lends perspective and distance. These mills were extraordinary feats of construction in aggressive pursuit of an industrial dream. The size of the buildings represents the unshakable confidence the American steel industry had in its own future, a future which is now associated with dying mill cities and rusted, abandoned, yet compelling sites.

			one of his "work portraits", shows a working class American in an industrial setting. The carefully posed subject, a young man with wrench in hand, is hunched over, surrounded by the machinery that defines his job. But while constrained by the machinery (almost a metal womb), the man is straining against it—muscles taut, with a determined look—in an iconic representation of masculinity.

	When oil slicks are visible in satellite images, it is because they have changed how the water reflects light, either by making the Sun’s reflection brighter or by dampening the scattering of sunlight, which makes the oily area darker. In coastal areas, however, similar changes in reflectivity can occur from differences in salinity (fresh versus salt water) and from naturally produced oils from plants.

			Alexander's entry into Babylon took place in 331 BCE after his decisive victory over the Persian king Darius III at the Battle of Gaugamela. This battle was a turning point in his campaign, and it allowed him to capture the Persian capital of Babylon and other major cities. The entry into Babylon was seen as a symbol of his triumph over the Persian Empire.

			The "Rage of Achilles" is a dramatic and powerful scene that depicts a moment from Homer's epic poem, the Iliad, where Achilles, the Greek hero, is consumed by anger and grief over the death of his close friend Patroclus. In this fresco, Tiepolo captures the intense emotions and turmoil of the scene, with Achilles in the foreground, wielding a sword, and a group of characters surrounding him, conveying the tumultuous nature of the story.

Never before had flames been painted so close to, with an energy suggesting even the crackle of the fire, from which Ascanius seems to be protecting himself by covering his ears. But the human delicacy of Barrocci's anti-heroic and anti-rhetorical figures was not to be really appreciated in Rome, because it could not compete with the classical antique statuary.
