The lighting on the painting emphasizes the antique glow the painting has. The natural colors and dull texture further elicit the antique feel of the wooden cabinet and drapery.
This mirror reflects the whole scene and is curved so it doesn't show just one part, but it shows the whole image from the floor to the ceiling. It shows not only the reflection of the bride and groom, but also the reflection of two other figures thought to be Jan van Eyck himself and another witness to the ceremony. As I looked closer at the mirror I saw small circular images that bordered it. At first I thought they were battle scenes but when I was able to see it clearer I saw they were bible scenes. More specifically, different scenes from the life of Jesus.
Where do you go to the bathroom when you are in North Carolina? Public restrooms should be available to all people in the public. North Carolina passed House Bill 2, people are now required by law to use the bathroom that corresponds with the sex on their birth certificate. This was a target for transgender people using public bathrooms. The few exceptions are for custodial purposes, a person needing medical assistance, a minor under the age of seven, and a person that has been temporarily designated for use by that person’s biological sex. This bill also takes away your right to sue the state for discrimination. The problem with this law is that it discriminates against transgender people. The fear is that cisgender males will dress

When examining the most significant structures of ancient Rome, it might be surprising to discover that the bath complex served as one of the more important establishments in Roman society. Bath complexes functioned as “vast recreation, community and social centres” by providing citizens with a place to exercise, fraternize and bathe themselves each day. In terms of leisure, Roman bath complexes contained nearly everything that a person could want or need in one convenient location. To Romans, “bathing was both a luxury and necessity,” and the bath complex was “an ideal place to meet one’s friends and acquaintances, conduct business meetings, meet one’s host before dinner, or indeed acquire a dinner invitation.” Through the development of ingenious engineering that astounds even modern scientists, bath complexes were able to become a staple of society and one of the most influential structures in ancient Rome.
One of the oldest forms of woodworking is called veneering. Veneer is a thin surface layer of fine wood, glued to a base of less attractive or inexpensive material. Veneer is used when decorating furniture, floors, walls and even paintings or pictures. This can be broken down into two different categories; these are parquetry and marquetry.
The Interaction Order of Public Bathrooms, written by Spencer E. Cahill, is an article that does a fairly well job at analyzing interpersonal relationships and individual practices in restrooms. Cahill used ideologies of Emile Durkheim, Erving Goffman, Margaret Atwood, Horace Miner, and Lyn Lofland to help construct his perspective on the individual’s expectations of bathroom etiquette through our experiences with others and how we internalize these behaviors.
They came in an arrangement of different sizes and shapes that distinguished it purpose and use. Smaller vessels, referred to as toilet vessels, were the most prevalent among sizes. They functioned to house a variety of different high value cosmetic products such as kohl, and range of different oils and ointments. These cosmetic and toilet vessels were fabricated with thick stone walls to aid in preservation by keeping the product inside cool. They were used daily as these products were religiously used among the upper classes as the idea of revivification and to preserve jejunity through their present and for the afterlife became an important objective. The second most commonly used type of stone vessels played an important role in the burial and funerary rituals of the ancient Egyptians. These vessel were inscribed with hieroglyphics to indicate the member of the royal family or pharaoh it was created for. Primarily, these types of vessels functioned to keep and preserve the organs of the mummies or as gifts to be carried on into the afterlife. Inscribed vessels were also found in areas outside of Egypt in the possession of neighbouring royals. This suggests that they were additionally used as a form of commerce and exchange, signifying its value among people outside of the ancient Egyptians
Ernest Hemingway captures the essence and origins of nihilistic thought in “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place”, written in a time of religious and moral confusion shortly after The Great War. The ideas expressed in this short story represent the post World War 1 thinking of Hemingway, and the notoriously nihilistic Lost Generation in Paris, which was greatly influenced by the many traumas of war. Learning from his unnerving experiences in battle, Hemingway enforces the idea that all humans will inevitably fade into eternal nothingness and everything valued by humans is worthless. He develops this idea by creating a brilliant mockery of two coveted religious documents, revealing authority figures as typical, despicable, human beings, and reducing life into the most raw, simplistic, and frightening reality imaginable. He states that all humans will naturally die alone and literally be “in despair” about “nothing” (494), and that people will either seek a “calm and pleasant cafe” (496), or a self-inflicted death simply to escape despair. Undoubtedly, Hemingway destroys any existence of a higher meaning because, in reality “[life is] all a nothing, and a man [is] nothing too” (496). By viewing the actions of three different generations, Hemingway’s “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” elaborates on the idea that life is not continual enlightenment and growth, but gradual despair, and an inevitable death into “nada” (497).
...he toilet and the shower had a seat that could easily be folded down. Every bathroom in Scott Hall has a lever handle, metal bars, the door swings in and a seat that can fold out, but the doorways weren’t as wide as the one I used. At first I thought it was a handicap bathroom, however when looking for the logo I could not see one. Whether it was supposed to have the handicap logo or not this bathroom was one of the few things I found to be greatly accessible.
