Apartment Building in Ostia, Rome - by Grundschul Material Online

Artistic Interpretation Of An
Apatment Building In Ostia...

The beautifully preserved ruins of Ostia lie twenty miles from Rome, in the meadows between the Tiber River and the Tyrrhenian Sea. It was founded, probably in the 4th century BC, as a military colony to guard the river mouth against seaborne invasions. Later, during the centuries when virtually all imports reached the Capital via the Tiber, Ostia gained prominence as the domestic landing for cargo boats. By the 2nd century AD, it had become a flourishing commercial center inhabited by upwards of 100,000 people, whose apartment buildings, taverns, and grocery shops are still intact. - initaly.com


This model represents a apartment building in Ostia. When excavated, the first floor still had running water.

...And How It Looks Like Today.

As magníficas ruínas de Óstia se encontram a 20 milhas de distância de Roma, entre o Rio Tibre e o Mar Mediterrâneo. Ela foi fundada provavelmente no quarto século antes de Cristo, como uma colônia militar para guardar a foz do rio de invasões pelo mar. Depois, durante os séculos, quando tudo chegava à Capital através do Rio Tibre, Óstia ganhou importância como atracadouro para navios de carga. Por volta do século II depois de Cristo, Óstia tornou-se um centro comercial florescente, habitada por mais de 100.000 pessoas, cujos edifícios de apartamentos , tabernas e mercearias ainda estão intactos. - initaly.com

Este modelo representa um edifício de apartamentos romano em Óstia. Ao ser escavado, o primeiro andar ainda tinha água corrente.

Hanami Cherry Blossom - by Yamaha - Bosque de Cerejeiras

The Japanese people have long thought of the sakura (cherry blossom) as the flower which symbolizes the nation. It is mentioned in ancient myths, and the way its petals fall while still at the height of their beauty was interpreted by the old warrior class as symbolic of resignation and grace in death, qualities which the warriors rated highly. There are numerous cherry blossom viewing spots throughout the country and one of the pleasures of life among the Japanese is the chance to hold a sake drinking party beneath a grove of cherry trees in full bloom. -  Yamaha Paper Models


Os japoneses há muito tempo consideram a  sakura (flor de cerejeira), como a flor que simboliza a nação.
A forma como suas pétalas caem enquanto ainda estão no auge de sua beleza era interpretado pelos antigos guerreiros samurais como símbolo de resignação e de graça na morte, qualidades que eram muito valorizadas por esses guerreiros. Há árvores de cerejeira em praticamente todo o Japão e um dos prazeres da vida entre os japoneses é a chance de realizar uma festa bebendo saquê debaixo de um bosque de cerejeiras em plena floração. - Yamaha Paper Models

Jeep Paper Model - by SH Ilustration Studio

The Old Real Thing

Jeep is an automobile marque of Chrysler. The first Willys Jeeps were produced in 1941 with the first civilian models in 1945, making it the oldest off-road vehicle and sport utility vehicle (SUV) brand. It inspired a number of other light utility vehicles, such as the Land Rover which is the second oldest 4-wheel-drive brand. The original Jeep vehicle that first appeared as the prototype Bantam BRC became the primary light 4-wheel-drive vehicle of the United States Army and Allies during World War II, as well as the postwar period. Many Jeep variants serving similar military and civilian roles have since been created in other nations. - Wikipedia

The New Real Thing

Jeep é uma marca registada atualmente em nome da Chrysler LLC Group. O termo jipe virou sinônimo de automóveis destinados ao uso fora de estrada, ou off road, normalmente com tração nas quatro rodas. A palavra jipe é um aportuguesamento do termo em inglês jeep, derivado da pronúncia em inglês da sigla GP, que significa general purpose ou "uso geral", embora essa não seja a origem da marca Jeep.
O veículo surgiu durante o esforço de guerra americano, no final dos anos 1930 e início dos 40, em que era necessário um veículo leve, com capacidade de superar terrenos difíceis e com obstáculos, e com capacidade para levar alguns homens e armamentos. Ao final da segunda guerra, a Willys requisitou o registro do nome Jeep.
O primeiro protótipo foi o Bantan BRC cuja traseira é semelhante às traseiras do Jeep Willys e do Jeep Ford, mas a frente é arredondada, bem de acordo com o design típico do final dos anos 1930. - Wikipedia

Former Niigata Custom House - by Uhu 02

Built in 1869, it is the only surviving Customs House of Niigata City, in the 5 ports opened at this time. Designated a National Important Cultural Property.

The Real Thing

Niigata City has a history of prosperity as the largest port on the Sea of Japan side of the country for shipping to and from the Pacific side. Later, under the Ansei Treaty of 1859 between Japan, the U.S., Russia, Holland, Britain, and France, Niigata became one of just five Japanese ports open to foreign trade (along with Yokohama, Hakodate, Kobe, and Nagasaki). Against the backdrop of this history, in the early years of the Meiji Era, Niigata's population was the largest of any prefecture in Japan. - www.mofa.go.jp
