medievalpoc: Unknown Japanese Artist Christian Martyrs of Nagasaki Japan (1622) unknown media, unknown dimensions Chiesa del Gesù (Rome, Italy) This incredible painting depicts the execution of Christian converts and missionaries after the Tokagawa shogunate banned Catholicism in Japan in the mid-1600s. Visible in the enormous crowd of spectators are of course many Japanese people, as well as Black and White Europeans. There are two main groups of Christians being executed; the largest of whom are being burned at the stake toward the center of the painting, and another group being beheaded “below” them.

"These woolen tapestries, the earliest evidence of a cycle woven on a model by an Italian painter, Nicolò di Pietro, are attributed to Arras, which was probably entrusted with their execution in a workshop set up in Venice."
"The account of the Passion of Jesus depicted in the ten panels follows the austere, dignified styles of German influence, intentionally synthetic and purified of the cruder aspects of Christ's suffering. It is also influenced by the centuries-old custom of sacred representations and by some mosaic scenes in the basilica."
Proclamation has, as its backdrop, the courthouse in which James Creed Meredith presided when he was a Circuit Court Judge. Fourteen figures stand in a megalithic circle, at the centre of which is a plaque containing a copy of the Proclamation of Independence, engraved in bronze. Each figure has at its base a small plaque, engraved with the name and the British military tribunal’s verdict and sentence of death. The figures are perforated with bullet holes. Since the original commission was for the seven signatories of the Proclamation, Gillespie has donated the other seven martyrs to the site himself.

UK’s Largest Onshore Turbine Blades, Delivered!
Location: South Lanarkshire, Scotland, UK
Year: 2016
Description:
Some would shy away from the challenge of transporting three 145m wind turbines featuring 58.7m blades, we say bring it on as we tackle the roads of South Lanarkshire! With approval granted for the phase three of Muirhall Wind Farm in South Lanarkshire Collett were called upon to facilitate the import and delivery of eighteen components from the Port of Grangemouth, components which when constructed would form three GE 2.75-120 145m wind turbines.
Having delivered two Senvion turbines for phase two of the Muirhall extension in February 2014, the previous holders of the largest onshore turbine blade record, we were well practiced at traversing the route from Port to pad side with the turbine component cargoes. However, due to the massive 58.7m length of the phase three blades, and the massive 63.35m overall loaded length, our teams had to undertake meticulous planning ahead of the project.
To ensure suitability of the route Collett consulting pored over data providing swept path analysis reports and route access surveys before undertaking a test drive of the route with a vehicle adapted to accurately reflect the loaded vehicle dimensions. The provision of all this data identified several requirements along the route to enable the convoy’s safe passage, this included street furniture removal, relocation of signage and lamp posts, pruning of foliage, third party land requirements and certain sections where the placing of track way would be necessary.
The tower sections would move freely along the route but these special measures were essential for safe delivery of the blades. After liaising with several authorities, highways departments and constabularies the route was agreed and adapted to accommodate the convoy, now all we needed were the turbines themselves.
Cue the arrival of the ships. Handled by Collett’s marine division, two vessels were expected at the Port of Grangemouth, the first arriving from Poland carrying the nine turbine blades, the second from Turkey carrying the nine tower sections. As the vessel’s arrived our teams were on hand Portside ready to begin the discharging of the ships.
One by one each of the components were safely lifted from the vessel to an agreed laydown plan portside at our Grangemouth heavy lift storage facility. Utilising our 110Te straddle carrier and various cranage equipment, each component was strategically positioned to allow for ease of loading in line with the delivery schedule.
Here the loads would remain until the stage of construction at Muirhall could facilitate delivery allowing Collett to provide a Just in Time service. The hubs and nacelles for each turbine were located in Germany. This provided yet another logistical challenge requiring expert co-ordination from our teams to ensure an orchestrated arrival of the components necessary for each complete turbine. Our teams once again rose to the challenge, with expert logistical planning and execution Collett ensured that deliveries of these integral components fell in line with the agreed schedule. As the end of November approached the first delivery to site set off. In order to minimise disruption, and due to the size of the cargoes and the route they would be travelling, each convoy consisted of one tower section and one turbine blade. Accompanied by Collett’s pilot vehicles and under police escort the convoy made its way along the route, manoeuvring the components through the villages of South Lanarkshire with our expert drivers effortlessly taking the challenging route in their stride.
After crossing splitter islands, employing contraflow manoeuvres and utilising manual steering at key points throughout the route all components arrived safely on site ready for construction.
Working on a 6 day a week delivery schedule, and adopting the blade and tower delivery combination, each component safely made the journey from Grangemouth to site, arriving in synchronisation with the construction schedule. Working closely with the experienced Muirhall Wind Energy team on both this and the previous phase two extension allowed our team to provide expert logistics throughout. From coordinating the arrival of components from three separate locations across Europe to the extensive planning and execution of manoeuvring a 63.35m loaded combination, our team rose to the challenge and we’re proud to say that we’ve delivered the largest onshore turbine blade in the UK. Muirhall Wind Farm phase 3 extension, also known as Muirhall South is expected to be operational in March 2016 and will offset circa 10,848 tonnes of CO2 per annum whilst supplying up to 5,773 homes with electricity over the 25 year lifetime."

Execution Rocks Light is a lighthouse in the middle of Long Island Sound on the border between New Rochelle and Sands Point, New York. It stands 55 feet tall, with a white light flashing every 10 seconds. The granite tower is painted white with a brown band around the middle. It has an attached stone keeper's house which has not been inhabited since the light was automated in 1979.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007 as Execution Rocks Light Station.

When I took this picture I was upset by the person who walked into view.
Later looking at it, it sent shivers down my spine as it looked to me like a soldier stading guard with a rifle slung over his shoulder.

Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II is a bridge in Rome constructed to designs of 1886 by the architect Ennio De Rossi. Construction was delayed, and it was not inaugurated until 1911. The bridge across the Tiber connects the historic centre of Rome (Corso Vittorio Emanuele, whose axis the bridge extends, and piazza Paoli at the bridgehead) with the rione Borgo and the Vatican City, close what is left of the ancient Pons Neronianus. The bridge commemorating Vittorio Emanuele II of Italy is carried in three arches spanning a distance of 108 metres. It is decorated at the ends with high socles carrying colossal bronze winged Victories and over each of the piers with massive allegorical travertine sculptural groups.

Architect Ennio De Rossi conceived and designed it in 1886. In 1889, the construction started but the works were soon interrupted. In 1908, they were taken up again by the Allegri firm, which built the bridge respecting the original project.
Ponte Vittorio is spread over three masonry arches, is 110 meters long, and 20 wide. It has a sumptuous sculptural decoration with four marble groups and four Victories on its pillars and headboards. The groups had to represent "The virtues of King Vittorio Emanuele II." In June 1909, a public contest was to decide on their execution.
The jury commissioned the following sculptors: Elmo Palazzi, Luigi Casadio, Amleto Cataldi, and Francesco Pifferetti for the bronze Victories; Giuseppe Romagnoli for The fidelity to the Statute (after Novara, 1849); Italo Griselli for The Military Value (the Battle of San Martino, 1859); Giovanni Nicolini for The Political Triumph (proclamation of the Reign of Italy, 1861); Cesare Reduzzi for The Father of the Nation (Vittorio Emanuele in Rome during the flooding of 1870).
The President of the Commission, Ettore Ferrari, chose the precise location of each sculptural group on the bridge. Due to some delays in transforming plaster models into travertine stone, the statues were positioned only in early 1912.
Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II was inaugurated for the first time on 5 June 1911 for the Universal Exposition and the 50th anniversary of the proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy. It is no coincidence that the bridge took the name of the first King of Italy. The second inauguration took place after the placement of the travertine groups on 28 April 1912.
The demand for robotic automation is high. And, industries are interested in adopting solutions such as autonomous mobile robots in a warehouse and warehouse execution software to drive high productivity, and efficiency across the fulfillment and distribution centers.
