"Bayard Station was once the headquarters for the Chesapeake Gas Company of Baltimore City, which merged with several other companies eventually becoming BGE. During the station’s heyday, the gas works spread over 14 acres. The complex included the Valve House; four large telescoping holding tanks, called “gasometers;” and a series of processing buildings, of which one remains today across Hamburg Street. The gas was manufactured, stored in the gasometers, and then piped into the valve house where it was compressed before being directed into the main lines of the city."

Today, this building is home to an architectural salvage company called [Housewerks](https://housewerkssalvage.com/pages/about-us). Since they purchased the building in 2005, they have worked to preserve the structure and have placed it on the National Register of Historic Places.

This large eagle once stood atop the old First National Bank in downtown Sioux Falls. When the building was demolished during urban renewal, this eagle and a pair of bas-relief panels of Native Americans were salvaged. They are all at street level at the west entrance to the current bank.

The eagle is carved from Indiana limestone, in the Art Deco style, and dates from about 1929. It has stylistic simularities to other eagles carved from the same limestone. Possibly it was based on a modified generic pattern used repeatedly for various architectural sculptures.

This eagle is a beloved local landmark on Phillips Avenue, in downtown Sioux Falls, SD.

This wreck was found in 1994 during construction work in the Uelvesbüller Koog, Nordfriesland, Schleswig Holstein, North Germany. It is a flat-bottomed Dutch cargo vessel, which could also sail in shallow waters. The dendrochronological examination of the oak wood used in the construction revealed that the keel was laid around 1600. About twenty years later there was an accident off the Adolfskoog: The vessel sank in a tidal channel. After salvage and a two-year stabilisation phase in a sugar solution, the wreck has been on display in the Nordfriesland Maritime Museum since April 1998.

The Sierra Leone-flagged EDRO III ran aground off Pegeia on 8 December 2011 in heavy seas, during a voyage to Rhodes, from Limassol, Cyprus with a cargo of plasterboard. At the time of the accident, the ship had nine crew members - seven Albanians and two Egyptians. The crew were rescued and airlifted to the safety of Paphos by a local British Military helicopter.

The EDRO III weighs about 2,345 tons and is over 80 meters in length. According to Cyprus Marine Environment Protection Association CMEPA, the ship is empty of all cargo and fuel oil and rests on the sea rocks at an 11-12 degree angle. Embarking on the ship is no longer permitted as it is dangerous. Together with Germany's CIMEXTA Vessel Salvage Company, the task of safe removal of all diesel, hydrocarbons and marine pollutants onboard the vessel, and watertighting the hull was awarded to a Cypriot marine salvage company. This was completed in October 2013.

Bronze Shiva Nataraja (Lord of the Dance), circa 1100 CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

This is the before-conservation version of the 3D model - the after-conservation version is here:

https://skfb.ly/6VIpT


From [artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org):

*'The Hindu god Shiva appears in several incarnations. Here, Shiva appears as Nataraja, or Lord of the Dance. He raises his left foot in a graceful dance pose. In his upper right hand, Nataraja holds a drum, the sound of which manifests creation. The flame that he holds in his upper left hand symbolizes destruction. Together, they symbolize the creation and destruction of the cosmic universe. The posture of the icon’s lower left and right palms signifies protection. The foot that rests on the demon’s back symbolizes the 
elimination of ignorance, while the raised left foot signifies salvation...'*

Shiva Nataraja, Lord of the Dance

**Birmingham Museum of Art**

Shiva Nataraja (Lord of Dance)
2013

Artist: Sri Pradakaran, Sri Govindan and Sri Pratiban
Sri Rajan Industries, Tamilnadu, India

This is a bronze sculpture of the Hindu god Shiva in his dancing form of Nataraja (Lord of Dance).  As Nataraja, Shiva performs the Ananda Tandava (dance of bliss), the dance in which the universe is created, maintained, and dissolved.  This sculpture depicts all three of those aspects at once.  Shiva in his role as Nataraja represents the Indian conception of the never-ending cycle of time.  The purpose of this sculpture is to alert the viewer that through belief and devotion to Shiva, one can achieve salvation (or moksha).  Cast in 2013, this sculpture is an example of the centuries-old tradition of the lost-wax casting method perfected during India’s Chola dynasty (c. 850 CE – 1250 CE).

This scene is my tribute to **R.A.Salvatore's** fantasy book series about legendary **Drizzt Do'Urden** - the dark elf who rejected life of lies and evil ways of his family and was exiled by his kin. First three books of the series tell the story of how he managed to escape the depths of the Underdark and begin a new life on **the Surface**. Among his new friends there is a step-daughter of the dvarven king (Battlehammer) - **Cattie-brie**. Young  woman sees the dark elf for who he truly is. Quotations are taken from books 1,2 and 4.<br>

I made this scene for Hand-painted **[Storybook Scene Challenge](https://sketchfab.com/blogs/storybook-challenge/)**. Everything is done in Blender 3.0. All the concept art is done by myself based on my imagination, books, existing illustrations of Drizzt and Cattie and my life experiences.

You are Not Alone

Salvatierra Castle is located in the municipality of Calzada de Calatrava (Ciudad Real, Spain). Its period of greatest historical prominence focuses between the battles of Alarcos (1195) and Las Navas de Tolosa (1212), playing a decisive role as a preamble of the latter. Between 1198 and 1211 the Order of Calatrava installed its convent headquarters in this fortress and was consolidated as the Order of Salvatierra. In 1226 it was definitely abandoned when its last Muslim defenders handed it over to Christians in the context of Las Navas pacts. Since 1992, it has been part of the Cultural Interest Assets (BIC) catalog of the Regional Government of Castilla-La Mancha. Despite its advanced state of ruin, it still retains part of the donjon, numerous barrel vaults and large walled spaces that acted as albacar and barbican.

The foot that rests on the demon’s back symbolizes the elimination of ignorance, while the raised left foot signifies salvation. A now missing ring of fire, symbolic of the simultaneous and continuous creation and destruction of the universe, would have encircled the bronze icon.’*

Sandalwood, lacquer, and gold Chinese Amoghasiddhi Buddha, 1403 - 1424 CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

From the sculpture's description on artsmia.org:

*'Amoghasiddhi is one of a group of five buddhas that embody five distinct types of wisdom and are thus sometimes called the “Five Wisdom Buddhas.” Of the five, who are believed to occupy the four cardinal directions and an immovable central direction, Amoghasiddhi occupies the northern position. He is an embodiment of the “Wisdom of Unrestricted Activity,” which enables one to save living beings on the path toward salvation using individualized means. Amoghasiddhi’s emblem, the double thunderbolt (vishvavajra), decorates the bottom of this sculpture... X-ray analysis has revealed what appear to be a roll of paper, a small bead or pearl, and a glass vial within a compartment inside this small statue.'*

Terrain - (Wreckages) Crashed Light Assault Craft.

It looks as if the vessel belongs to a faction from long-ago, before the evernight. Before the resurgence of the Plague.
This particular unit is so old that it is difficult to determine the origins of these people. With no organic matter left of the original occupants of this craft, and no visible emblems, crests or other tell-tale markings to guide us; we no not whether these good folk had the intentions that benefit the Cure, or if they had inherent seed of rebellion, so commonly found within members of the Cause factions. Common sense and the little intelligence we have on this particular wreckage point us down the path of espionage and sabotage.The technology, while considered somewhat  primitive by our standards, arguably is still better suited for their purpose on the battlefield.
