Pennsylvania (United States), July 1863.
Two years have elapsed since the inauguration of Lincoln as President of the United States and since the beginning of the war of secession between the army of the Union and the Confederate army, between the industrial and abolitionist states of the north and the agrarian states and southern slavers.
At the command of the "blue" troops, General Meade and the command of the "gray" troops, General Lee.
From the first moment both armies reinforced the area, mobilizing many columns of infantry, artillery and cavalry. All the military strategies known to date were put into practice (cavalry saber charges, ambushes, attacks on trenches with fixed bayonets, incursions of small groups behind the enemy lines, etc.)

Batalla de Getysburg (Colección privada Playmobil)
Pensilvania (Estados Unidos), julio de 1863.
Dos años han transcurrido desde la posesión de Lincoln como Presidente de los Estados Unidos y desde el comienzo de la guerra de secesión entre el ejército de la Unión y el ejército confederado, entre los estados industriales y abolicionistas del norte y los estados agrarios y esclavistas del sur.
Al mando de las tropas "azules", el general Meade y al mando de las tropas "grises", el general Lee.
Desde el primer momento ambos ejércitos reforzaron el área, movilizando muchas columnas de infantería, artillería y caballería. Todas las estrategias militares conocidas hasta la fecha se pusieron en práctica (cargas de sable de caballería, emboscadas, ataques a trincheras con bayonetas fijas, incursiones de pequeños grupos detrás de las líneas enemigas, etc.)

Gazbia Sirry (1925 Cairo - 2021 Cairo)
Oil on canvas
Private Collection, Bahrain
Currently at the exhibition "Radical! Women*Artists and Modernism 1910-1950 | Radikal! Künstlerinnen* und Moderne 1910–1950" in the Lower Belvedere in Vienna
Gazbia Sirry's 'Song of the Revolution' is an homage to the Egyptian Revolution and the toppling of the Egyptian monarchy in 1952. Nasser's subsequent presidency was certainly a great disappointment for her. In 1959 she and her husband were even imprisoned on allegations of Communist activity.

Kaiser Wilhelm II had often been on vacation to Sunnmøre. After the fire, he sent four warships with materials to build temporary shelters and barracks. After a period of planning, the town was rebuilt in stone, brick, and mortar in Jugendstil (Art Nouveau), the architectural style of the time. The structures were designed by approximately 20 master builders and 30 Norwegian architects, most of them educated in Trondheim and Charlottenburg, Berlin, drawing inspiration from all over Europe. To honor Wilhelm, one of the most frequented streets of the town is named after him

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The Pilgrim's Church is the Protestant church of Vrouwenpolder in the Dutch province of Zeeland , located at Fort den Haakweg 2.
In 1314 a chapel was built in Vrouwenpolder (then: Polrekerc ), which was elevated in 1324 to a parish church, dedicated to Our Lady. The church was enlarged around 1340. This church came into possession of a painting by Our Lady of the Polder , to which miraculous properties were attributed. This painting is said to have been made around 1500 and is probably a copy of an older painting, which would then be the real miraculous painting, but which has been lost.
The legend dates from the beginning of the Vrouwenpolderse parish church, so early 14th century. A pious resident wanted to give the new parish church a bit more luster. He went to Middelburg with a blank panel to ask a painter, one master Willem, to paint an image of Our Lady on it. A little later the painter was visited by a young man who wanted to carry out an assignment, and was given the assignment to perform. The painting was completed a few hours later, and the young man disappeared. This was generally considered a miracle.
In 1572, during the Siege of Middelburg (1572-1574) , the church was almost completely destroyed, and devotion ended as a result of the Reformation. The painting seemed lost, but was found again in a private collection in the 20th century and has been in the Catholic Church of Middelburg since 1926, where the devotion regarding the painting revived from 1931 onwards.
The church, largely destroyed in 1572, was rebuilt in 1623, using parts of the wallwork of the older church. Now, however, a, smaller and lower, Reformed hall church was created, the same that is still present today. This church was restored in 1955.
It concerns a brick hall church on a rectangular floor plan under a gable roof. There is a square open roof rider on the roof. The entrance has a basket arch and a pointed arch window above. The walls have buttresses. The church is enclosed by a wall. The interior is covered by a flat ceiling, supported by beams.
The pulpit is from 1624 and the baptismal gate, the chandelier and the reading bench are from the same time. The baptismal basin is from 1718 and shows the inscription: O youthful flesh and blood, think you must die .
The neo-gothic organ dates from around 1910, but was placed in this church in 1938.
The Model 770 Amphicar (seen on the left side of the photograph above) was named after its ability to achieve speeds of seven knots in the water and 70 mph on land. 3,878 Amphicars were manufactured in Germany from 1961 to 1968. During that time 3,046 were imported into the United States. The Amphicar is rear-engined and uses a 4-cylinder British-built Triumph Herald motor producing 43 hp. All Amphicars are convertibles, offered to civillians in four colors; Beach White, Regatta Red, Lagoon Blue, and Fjord Green (Aqua). Two American Presidents owned Amphicars; Jimmy Carter and Lyndon B. Johnson. President Johnson would invite friends and even foreign dignitaries to his Texas ranch for a joyride in his car.
Today, the Boathouse Orlando at Disney Springs is the only place in the world that offers the unforgettable & thrilling experience of a Captain’s Guided Tour in a vintage Amphicar. These rare cars drive on land and enter the water with a splash, taking you on a Captain Guided, 25-minute tour of the landmarks of Disney Springs. Their fleet of Amphicars were purchased from private collections worldwide – and less than 400 exist worldwide today.
