Grand Hairy One

Meet The Titanosaur!  🦕 At 122 ft (37.2 m) long, Patagotitan mayorum is the Museum’s largest dinosaur on display and one of the largest animals to have ever walked the Earth! This gigantic herbivore, which lived some 95 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous, was heavier than 10 African elephants—tipping the scales at roughly 70 tons. In fact, The Titanosaur is so big that it barely fits in the Museum’s halls: It’s longer than the gallery it sits in—and its head, which would graze the ceiling, extends outwards toward the elevator banks! Spot this sauropod, and so much more, at the Museum. Plan your visit.

19th Century Portraits Of “Russian Types” - St. Petersburg

Scottish photographer William Carrick documented the different professions and nationalities that lived in Russia in the mid-19th century.

Both William Carrick’s father and grandfather were closely connected to Russia, having traded timber with Russians and spending lots of time in St. Petersburg. William himself was born in Edinburgh, but the family almost immediately moved to Russia, where he lived for the rest of his days, with rare trips to Rome and back to his native Edinburgh to study.

Carrick graduated from the Petersburg’s Academy of Arts, where he studied architecture and painting. Later, he met a photographic technician in Scotland and the idea of photography ignited him. In 1859, Carrick opened one of the first photo studios ever in St. Petersburg. He took pictures of St. Petersburg street life, but, most of all, he became famous for his ethnographic expeditions, during which he collected portraits of different jobs and nationalities living in the Russian Empire.

Weeks into the show they had to like, reintroduce him in the editing because he had just been absent from the show till then; "remember this guy? he's also still here". They started with 60 people or something, and he made it to the final 6, where he lost a balancing game.

Every Blood Hunter who has been in the Order for any length of time knows that the day will come when they become part of the First Hunter’s Personal Guard. Yet, everyone hopes that day comes as late as possible.
