Greek Ornament in The Coloured Ornament of All Historical Styles 

Today we are featuring Greek decorative plates from The Coloured Ornament of All Historical Styles, Part I: Antiquity by Alexander Speltz, published in Leipzig, Germany in 1915 by Baumgärtner. The multi volume portfolio was produced with three color and four color printing based on Speltz’s original watercolor paintings.

In a preface to the Part I, Spetz wrote:

“In accomplishing this work special attention has been paid to the possibility of easily finding the text belonging to each figure, and to a classification according to the chronology of art history and archeology, for this work is not merely intended to be a standard for the polychromatic ornament, but also a resource for the study of history of art and archaeology.

If this work, whose first part herewith published and whose further parts Medieval Period, Renaissance, and Rococo Style, Classicism will follow as soon as possible, contributes to revive that sense of colours lost in this our prosaic time and helps to restore to our generation that delightful rejoicing in beautiful forms and colours, the writer’s end has been achieved.”

They won't let her back in until she pays off at least half of the room debt. By my rough calculations that's at least 300.

Lolas entire life is inside that room right now, and it's being held hostage. She needs 300 as QUICKLY as possible so that she's not separated from everything she needs to survive in Nigeria.

To avoid this, Lola has found an apartment nearby for 350 dollars. It's doable. I know we can raise this amount. We'd also need about three days worth of hotel payments so that we can be sure she has somewhere to be while she raises money for the apartment. She's tired of being homeless.

Allies please share, repost, reblog, DONATE, whatever. All the donation spots are the same as above but I'll rewrite it here.

My name is Suhaila, a mother of four children.

I am writing these words from inside the hospital, with a heart full of fear and pain.

My health is very critical. My iron level is 6,

and my little daughter Miral’s iron level is 5.

I urgently need donations to buy the medicine and save our lives

My husband is injured and unable to work. We have no income and no protection.

Our family lives in a torn tent, exposed to cold, hunger, and fear every day.

My health is very critical. My iron level is 6,

and my little daughter Miral’s iron level is 5.

She is so weak… her small body is fading, and I cannot afford the medicine or the food she needs to survive.

Right now, my daughter and I are in the hospital, waiting helplessly.

My other children are alone in the tent, hungry and scared.

We are not asking for luxury.

We are asking for treatment to stay alive

and food so my children do not die.

Please, do not let my children lose their mother,

and do not let me lose my daughter in front of my eyes.

Help us. Save us. We are slowly dying. 😭💔🙏

I’m a 38-year-old mother living in northern Gaza with my husband and our 8 children 👩‍👧‍👦. Before the war, we had a peaceful life — full of love, family, and hope 🌸. But everything was taken from us in an instant 💣. Our home was destroyed, and now we are displaced, living in the open without food, shelter, or medicine ❄️🍞💊.

I had a fundraiser to help us survive, but sadly, it stopped working and I can no longer access it 😞. I’ve now launched a *new campaign* in hopes of finding kind people who can support us 🙏. Even though a ceasefire has begun, *nothing has changed* for families like mine — we are still struggling every day just to stay alive 💔.

*Please, if you can donate or share*, it would mean the world to us. Your support could help us find shelter and keep my children safe and warm tonight 🛌💖.

I am 19 years old, and I’m writing these words while trying to hold on to hope despite everything we are going through.

I had previously shared a donation link on Chuffed, but it stopped due to reasons beyond my control.

Recently, a dear friend created a new donation link to help us, and that’s why I’m reaching out again today to ask for your support and kindness 🙏

The home that once brought us together and gave us a sense of safety was destroyed by the occupation 🏚️

My father was injured in an airstrike, which caused him to lose his left eye, and he also suffered injuries to his legs that left him unable to move.

Since that day, our lives have completely changed, and the responsibilities have become heavier than I can carry at my age 💔

We are living through extremely difficult humanitarian conditions.

Every donation — even a small one — helps us meet basic needs and continue living with dignity 🤲

And if you’re unable to donate, sharing the link or keeping us in your prayers means just as much 🕊️

Thank you to everyone who reads this, everyone who stands with us, and every heart that hasn’t forgotten our humanity 🤍

Your support is our hope to keep going.

PLEASE HELP ME TO REBUILD MY LIFE AND DREAM

Hello my friends,I am Ayoush from Gaza. You have supported me in the past to help my family, and support for my family is still available and ongoing, as they are in urgent need of your help and assistance.

But I also need your support to build a brighter future for myself.

During the war, I lost my job and my home. I lost my work as a crochet artist and my job as a teacher, so I am now in need of your help. Donations have become extremely limited, and I need to rely on myself and open a small, simple project that reflects who I am and my identity—

which is the art of crochet.I now need your support, and as an initial step, we need around $3,000 to $4,000 to start this project.

We need to build my dream together, hand in hand.You are the helping hand for me and for building my dream.

Hello, my name sooad Muhammad, I am a 61-year-old mother and former school teacher from Gaza💔

After the army entered the city, we went out to Rafah under the attack of planes and missiles.And the bullets that spare no one, we lived in torn tents that did not protect from the heat, the cold, or the rain. All the words in the world cannot describe what we have lived through. All I want is for you to look at me and my family with a merciful heart and help me.

Before October 7th, I lived a humble life, dedicated to teaching and raising my children. But everything changed. Since that day, my family and I have been living in unimaginable conditions—without electricity, without clean water, without safety.

Our home was destroyed, and we now sleep in a torn tent, exposed to the freezing cold. My children cry from hunger and fear. The markets are empty or unaffordable. Bread is now a luxury—I knead pasta just to make something to fill their stomachs

Please open your heart and stand with us in this time of despair.

We are not asking for much—just a chance to survive. A blanket for the cold. A piece of bread. A roof that does not leak. A moment of peace for my children

I am humbly asking for your help. Your donation, no matter how small, can give us warmth, food, and hope. It can help us survive these dark days and rebuild a life with dignity.

Your support means the world to me and my family.

Please donate 🙏

All the destruction that you see, we live every day a hundred times, and we live hunger, death, and a life that has no taste of life

Idea for 1879 Katya/Ivan that I had (from my AU)

at the end i had quotes from the book for each scene but those are also in czech so

1st Raskolnikov watching the woman jumping off the bridge and failing to drown

2nd Raskolnikov seeing marmeladov get mauled by horses

3rd Katerina Ivanovna going crazy

4th Dunya noticing Raskolnikov deep in thought as she's on the way to meet Lebeziatnikov

5th Raskolnikov kissing the ground on the square

6th Raskolnikov being taken away to Siberia

As some of you know, I live in Venezuela. For the last hour or so bombs have been falling over my city, Caracas. Some people say it's a coup d'etat, others that it's the US military. We are not yet sure what is happening.

A bomb fell over La Carlota, a military air base a few blocks away from my apartment. We can still see the smoke through the window. As I understand, bombs have also fallen on "strategic places" like Fuerte Tiuna and Miraflores.

The neighbors are speaking about leaving but me and my parents haven't decided what we are going to do. We don't really have a place to go. I'll keep you updated if I can. Thank you for taking the time to read.
