Friends Forever Picnik Quotes

exposure model


few posts at this time, lack of inspiration and material, it's more that I feel far from the archives. But do not worry, I'm going on stage in a big month and I intend to catch me!

This quick post to tell you a pretty good exposure, away from blockbusters Warholian, calderiens and others: The first altarpieces (twelfth - early XVth) the Louvre. Exposure model to return to the fundamentals of exposure, which I feel they are more often overlooked in favor of grandiose and Performing:
  • pedagogy: it really stands out having learned something and understood. The texts are in my opinion a true success, as cartels - developed just right;
  • scientific interest and the rigor of the fit;
  • observation: the balance between text and works to sharpen the observational skills of visitors without discouraging;
  • the number of works: this is a show case so voluntarily restricted. However, the number of works is sufficient to illustrate this and that we can appreciate each;
  • scenography discreet and sober, it never forgets it is there primarily to serve the works and is therefore perfectly in value. Ditto for lighting.
Only criticism: the geographic location of the exhibition in the museum - on the mezzanine floor of the Richelieu wing - in a sort of corridor where the passage is important. But even this drawback, the commissioners were able to play because the course of the exhibition is very clear.

You'll understand that I am conquered. If you like a bit of the Middle Ages and carved figures, please! Visit gives a breath of fresh air after the bling-bling and the Warhol crowd of An image can hide another .

Dell Inspiron Says No Supported Webcam

Notebooks Malins, No. 8 - in maps

A Book of Evil lazy this week but seems nevertheless useful: mapping archive. Everywhere on the net put in the archives card flourish: Map of civil status online map websites of archives, etc.. Valuable research assistance (especially for genealogists) some have already begun to identify and I refer you to this post blog Roots and beings, who commented on some number of initiatives. You'll find reviews and links:
- the card GeneaWiki
- the Généafrance
card - the card ArchivesGenWeb (clickable)
- the card Geneannuaire (clickable)
- the card GeneaDeb (clickable)


for my part I would add these links:

- On the website of the Archives of France, card update on 01/01/2009 of the statement of operations scan and put online parish registers and civil status in the public archives.
- Same site reported here the existence of a map of public archives that have online inventories and / or research tools, but the link is not working.
- The forum archives also presents a map of the exhibitions of archives.
