The National Monument to the Women of World War II is a British war memorial sculpture situated in Whitehall, London to the north of the Cenotaph. It was sculpted by John W. Mills and dedicated by Queen Elizabeth II on July 9, 2005.
The Monument stands 22 feet (6.7 m) high, 16 feet (4.9 m) long and 6 feet (1.8 m) wide. The lettering on the sides replicates the typeface used on war time ration books. There are 17 individual sets of clothing and uniforms around the sides, symbolising the hundreds of different jobs women undertook in World War II and then gave back for the homecoming men at the end of the war.

The General William Tecumseh Sherman Monument was dedicated on October 15, 1903 at the intersection of 15th Street, Pennsylvania Avenue & Treasury Place, a site Sherman is reported to have stood while reviewing returning Civil War Troops in 1865. Originally commissioned in 1896 by the United States Department of War and the Society of the Army of the Tennessee, General Sherman Statue Committee at a cost of approximately $90,000, plans for the monument were submitted by Carl Rohl-Smith. Rohl-Smith died in 1900, and supervision of the work was continued by Lauritz Jensen, under the direction of Smith's widow, Sara.
The monument features a 14-foot bronze equestrian figure of General Sherman, which was completed by Jensen, mounted atop a 42-foot high pedestal built by the Harrison Granite Company with granite furnished by the Fletcher Granite Company. The four sides of the pedestal are each adorned with a relief of a battle scene, finished up by Jensen. The reliefs on the east and west side are surmounted, respectively, by the bronze figure groups representing War and Peace, and flanked by two portrait medallions on each side, depicting generals who served under Sherman. The medallions were created by Theo Kitson. Both War and Peace were originally modeled by Stephen Sinding, but the figure of War, which was modeled after drawings by Rohl-Smith, was found not to harmonize with the rest of the monument and was remodeled by Sigvald Asbjornsen. At each corner of the base stands a life-size soldier represening each branch of the army--Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry, and Engineers. Rohl-Smith completed three of the four soldier figures on the corners of the monument and Asbjornsen completed the fourth figure, but sources differ as to whether it was the artilleryman or the cavalryman. All of the sculptures were cast by Gorham Manufacturing Company. A six-foot-wide mosaic encircling the base, listing the names of all Sherman's battles, was done according to Rohl-Smith designs and laid by the National Mosaic Company.

Longfellow Bridge is a steel rib arch bridge spanning the Charles River to connect Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood with the Kendall Square area of Cambridge, Massachusetts. The bridge carries Massachusetts Route 3, the MBTA Red Line, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic. The structure was originally known as the Cambridge Bridge, and a predecessor structure was known as the West Boston Bridge; Boston also continued to use "West Boston Bridge" officially for the new bridge. The bridge is also known to locals as the "Salt-and-Pepper Bridge" due to the shape of its central towers. The Cambridge Bridge was renamed Longfellow Bridge in 1927, by the Massachusetts General Court to honor Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who had written about the predecessor West Boston Bridge in his 1845 poem "The Bridge" / Boston’s Charles River Esplanade is a state-owned park situated in the Back Bay area of the city, on the south bank of the Charles River Basin. The limited-access parkway Storrow Drive forms the southern boundary of the park, with the Charles River marking the northern edge. In the park are walkways, statuary, the Hatch Memorial Shell performance stage, playgrounds, ballfields, and Community Boating. The Esplanade comprises part of the Charles River Reservation state park. The Esplanade was designated as a Boston Landmark by the Boston Landmarks Commission in 2009. The Esplanade was originally dedicated as the Boston Embankment in 1910. The Embankment was created as part of the construction of the 1910 Charles River Dam Bridge (today the site of the Museum of Science). It extended to Charlesgate (upstream of the Harvard Bridge) and connected with Frederick Law Olmsted's Emerald Necklace system of parks and open spaces. The Esplanade went through several major expansions between 1928-1960.

KC Scout
Dedicated in 1922 as a memorial to local Indian tribes, The Scout depicts a Sioux scout on horseback. Originally cast for the Panama Pacific Exposition in San Francisco in 1915, it arrived in Kansas City for a temporary exhibit on the way back to the sculptor on the east coast. Cyrus E. Dallin, of Boston and Paris, sculpted The Scout for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in San Francisco where it won a Gold Medal. Citizens were so delighted with the statue that they raised $15,000 to purchase it. Its prominent position on a hill in Penn Valley Park overlooks the city. This larger than life-size equestrian statue has become a symbol and a mascot of the city.

This is dedicated to a boy with whom i went out, on and off, for five years when I was 20 to 25 and he 21 and 26. Later on, he become my husband and the father of my children.
In that five years of our youth, he was drafted for two years in the army, when he came back, he begun to court me "seriously", towards the end even asked me to marry him. I could not then, but Eastern Sunday, and that is a story I wrote down yesterday again, with all the dark things that happened to me just before, we went to the market, then picnicked in the forest and then to "rest" to his best friends place.
I came home, looked at the mirror stunned: I did not look different! One could not see that i become woman. Instead of 25 year "old girl" I become a "young woman" - and life begun to smile to me again. Outside circumstances did not change but in me life was totally different.
I was so much in love and also begun to learn languages.
He gave me later two wonderful kids, and we were married for 15 years. Some later problems did make me forget, how happy he made me when I needed it so much.
Tintagel Church is dedicated to St Merteriane (or Materianas). St Materianas may have been St Madryn, a princess of Gwent, who is believed to have preached here. The present church may have been built on the site of a Celtic oratory run by the monks of Minster. It is outside Tintagel village on a uncluttered site, off the coast path.
Tintagel Church today has a cruciform shape of nave chancel and transepts, and was built between 1080 and 1150. The Norman Earls of Cornwall held Tintagel and built first Bossiney Castle. Then Earl Reginald, a son of Henry I, built the first Tintagel castle on the island around 1141 and probably finished building the church. Much of the existing stonework of the north wall may part of an earlier church incorporated in the Norman building .
Dedicated in April 2007, the names of 684 known alumni who perished are listed in the memorial’s bronze Book of Names with pull-out panels

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.
The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.
The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life.

Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.
