Lesson 8, CAMIO
Parts 4
This would be a very useful resource for anyone interested in any type of the arts or doing a paper on the arts.It is amazing how you can pull up ancient to current sculpture, pottery, drawings, jewelry, costumes and architecture.
Part 5
I researched architecture and saved my four favorites. I saved a bedroom from 40-30 B.C. that had been buried in the eruption of Vesuvius in A.D. 79, a marble fountain from Southwestern France around 1150, the Grand Salon from the Chateau deDraveil 1740, and a Ceremonial Teahouse:Sun Karaku 1917 from Japan. The bedroom is beautifully reconstructed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the last three wonders are all at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Although these are all amazing architectural finds listed in CAMIO, they could be used by someone investigating ancient history as well as architecture. CAMIO is an amazing resource. I hope I can steer some patrons to use it.
Wow, gram, you made some great finds! I'm going to have to look these up myself now! :) Thanks for your comments!
