The Pioneer (1904) by Frederick McCubbin.
The three panels tell a story of a new pioneer and his family making a life in the Australian bush and the results of time passing after their initial settlement. It was later found that McCubbin painted over one of his most popular paintings - called 'Found' - to create The Pioneer.

The sculpture named "Laocoön Group", or sometimes "Laocoön and His Sons", is exhibited in the Vatican's Octagon Courtyard. The scene depicted in the monumental and astonishing in its realism of fright is brutal: the futile struggle of a terrified man and his two young sons with the deadly embrace of sea serpents. Leaning back in a futile attempt to free himself, Laocoon is depicted just as one of the snakes is about to bite him.
In Greek mythology, Laocoon "the one who understands the people", is one of the protagonists of the Trojan horse episode.

Having never seen or known of that statue it takes my breath away. The skill involved to create such an edifice in such a situation speaks of drive and determination. It speaks of power, not power used unnecessarily but just latent and there if needed.
I love it.!!!

Built by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh, in 1799, and located in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, the Hawa Mahal palace has a unique structure with honeycombed windows that allow cool air to go through which makes life comfortable during the hot summer months.

I absolutely love these old buildings. Thank you for posting. But I don’t buy the Wikipedia narratives on the history or timelines. 70 years before the alleged construction date, there was no Jaipur at all, according to their own narrative. (There was a city 11 Km away which was running out of water) The narrative states that the Jaipur street layout, city walls and administrative palaces were thrown up in 4 years. The narrative also states they were autonomous from the British Raj at the time (and so did not have access to any industrial revolution machinery to get the job done: my inference) Here is a pic from 1875 for contrast which was the year before they painted it pink for the Prince of Wales.
