Located about 20 km west of Paris, France, the Palace of Versailles is world famous for its massive and splendid design. King Louis XIII chose architect Louis Le Vau, decorator Charles Lebrun and landscape designer André Le Nôtre to be in charge of building the palace. To complete the work, King Louis XIII mobilized 36,000 workers to work. 6,000 horses were used to transport construction materials from all over France to the construction site of the Palace of Versailles. The finest and most unique materials were used to construct the Palace of Versailles. In 1682, the lavish, splendid palace of Versailles was completed. Construction costs were at least 100,000,000 livre (the currency in circulation in France at that time). According to calculations by experts, this amount converted at the current exchange rate is about 200-300 billion USD. With such a large amount of money, the Palace of Versailles overwhelmed many people with 2,300 rooms, 2,513 windows, 67 stairs and 483 mirrors. In particular, the mirror hall (also known as the “Grand Gallery”) is one of the most famous rooms in the Palace of Versailles when there are 17 giant mirror arches. Each mirror arch is assembled from 21 mirrors. In the grounds of the Palace of Versailles, there are 55 lakes and 600 fountains. Inside the Palace of Versailles there are about 6,000 paintings placed in more than 2,000 rooms. In 1979, UNESCO recognized the Palace of Versailles – the largest royal palace in the world as a World Cultural Heritage.

Overwhelmed with new magnificent Paris when viewed from above The French capital Paris shows magnificent beauty with the ancient Notre-Dame Cathedral, the romantic Seine River and the tall skyscrapers in the photos taken from above. Jeffrey Milstein first took top-down photographs with his Cessna 150 in 1961 when he was only 17 years old. At that time, after he obtained his pilot’s license, in order to have a lot of time to fly, Jeffrey Milstein agreed to clean and sweep the hangars in Southern California, USA. But Jeffrey Milstein’s life has gone through many professions. He chose to become an architect, then started his own design company, before starting his career in photography today. The Louvre is like the pyramid in the heart of Paris The picture of Paris with the Arc de Triomphe as the center To get the pictures of Paris from above, Jeffrey Milstein is also quite laborious, using helicopters in the city is very limited and rarely granted. The helicopter company he flew in supported the three-month application process and art friends supported Jeffrey Milstein. The man living in Woodstock, New York, USA said: “Two flights of about 45 minutes around the city, I had to work very quickly, but because I was a good pilot, everything was done.” The end result is a book of 200 enchanting color photographs showcasing the ‘city of light’ in a very rare variety of angles. Jeffrey Milstein is best known for his top-down shots, saying: “I really like this formal, symmetrical look with its strong focus and careful cropping. art, like a drawing of the premises that an architect can see. ” Georges-Pompidou National Center of Arts and Culture The stately gardens of King Louis XIV and the elaborate palace in Versailles Luxembourg is an important garden of Paris, France Milstein has photographed other cities in a straight-down style. His book published in 2017 shows images of Los Angeles and New York, USA. In addition, the veteran photographer also takes photo frames in London, UK and Amsterdam, Netherlands. What particularly attracts Jeffrey Milstein above all are the buildings with a fairly uniform height and aesthetics. This is largely due to Georges-Eugène Haussmann’s 19th-century urban plan when he decided to level most of the city’s medieval structure, opening wide boulevards and a limestone building. “Paris has a wonderful identity, with beautiful boulevards and light everywhere, no tall buildings blocking the light,” said Jeffrey Milstein. This man captured most of the famous landmarks in central Paris with the exception of Notre Dame Cathedral, which is still covered after the terrible fire in 2019. To get a picture taken straight from above, helicopter pilot Félix Claro had to fly steep circles, while Jeffrey Milstein had to sit as lean as he could and was always ready to shoot. .

Russian Tsar is good at treating the country, but alcoholism is remembered by people as Peter the Great (1672 – 1725). He is the son of Tsar Aleksei I. This famous Russian czar is known to be an outstanding leader when he travels many places in Western Europe and learns new things and spreads back home. At the same time, Peter the Great conducted economic and political reforms, established the Navy to help Russia become a powerful world power. With a powerful military force, Peter the Great had wars with the Ottoman Empire, Sweden … to expand the territory. In 1725, Peter the Great built Peterhof Summer Palace. This extravagant and splendid building was dubbed “Russia’s Versailles”. In addition to his outstanding leadership and rule of the country, Peter the Great is also known to be the one who prepared for his death early. According to historical records, eight years before his death, the emperor of Russia suffered from kidney or urinary problems. This disease is attributed to Peter the Great’s drinking habit of alcohol. During meals, parties or celebrations, Peter the Great always drank a lot of wine and ate a lot. This habit made his health deteriorate. At the beginning of January 1725, Peter the Great became ill and had a severe fever. However, he was healed by doctors and quickly recovered from the disease. Immediately after his health recovered, he and his subjects continued to eat, drink and party. So, on January 16, Peter the Great’s illness worsened. He has a high fever and a urinary tract infection. A few days later, he had a stroke that resulted in partial paralysis and inability to speak. This is why he cannot choose who will inherit to his throne. On the morning of January 28, Peter the Great died at the Winter Palace in St Petersburg. At that time, he was 52 years old.

Using computational tools, researchers can virtually open a complicated folded letter from 1697. These are complex techniques to help recipients detect if a message has been tampered with. To date, scientists say letters over 300 years old can be read without opening. Read letters using algorithm During research at the Vatican Secret Archives, conservator Janaa Dambrogio at the MIT Library (Massachusetts Institute of Technology in America) unearthed Renaissance letters with strange cuts and angles. . She found these were signs that they were initially locked with a sliding paper slot and sealed with wax. Such letters cannot be opened without tearing the letter – which helps the recipient to see if the letter has been read or not. After studying 250,000 ancient letters, Dambrogio and her colleagues invented the first system for classifying key-lettering techniques. This is a type of periodic table based on how to crease pages. “Mail lock is 10 thousand years old technology and since people try to secure their mail, gradually they have come to know the key features of mail lock” – Ms. Dambrogio said. Until now, scientists have only read these letters by cutting them out and often corrupting the letters. Although such work naturally focuses on the content of the letter, it is also important to research the letter lock. Dambrogio and her colleagues have devised a way to both read the locked letter’s text without opening it, while at the same time reconstructing the intricate folds and gaps used to fix it. “This is an interesting and pretty big contribution over the decades to the search for artifacts that have barely been opened yet,” said computer scientist Brent Seales at the University of Kentucky. He is not involved in this study. The scientists investigated the Brienne Collection – a postmaster’s chest containing more than 3,000 unsent letters, of which 577 were never opened. Letters sent from all over Europe to the Dutch city of The Hague between 1680 and 1706, the era when Salem witch trials unfold, Newton revealed his law of motion and gravity. King Louis XIV moved the court to Versailles. First, the researchers analyzed four envelopes by scanning high-resolution X-rays to create 3D models of the letter. They then use a new algorithm to identify and separate different layers of folded letters and recognize the written text. In the end, the algorithm virtually unfolds the letters, not only making the handwriting visible, but also records the crease patterns so that the researchers can re-create the step-by-step letter locking process. Scientists use technology to read locked letters dating back centuries. Open up many research directions Scientists have found a way to read the letter without breaking its seal or opening it in any way. Using highly sensitive X-ray scanners and computer algorithms, researchers can read these sealed letters. The new strategy above helps scientists read the text in unopened messages for the first time. For example, an unopened letter is from a man named Jacques Sennacques, dated 31/7/1679 to his cousin Pierre Le Pers – a French businessman in The Hague. Perhaps this letter was intended to obtain a certified copy of the death certificate of a relative, Dainel Le Pers, regarding the inheritance issue. The scientists detailed their findings in the recent Nature Communications journal. This new technique will also work for other collections of unsent mail around the world. For example, “there are so many old origami art pieces that the way they were created has never been recorded,” said study co-author Erik Demaine, a computer scientist at MIT – “The idea of ​​scanning them so they can replicate the way they are folded is really interesting.” The historian Howard Hotson at the University of St Anne in Oxford, UK was not involved in the study, however he stressed that future research on locked letters could shed light on cultural patterns and patterns. global technology exchange “because sophisticated mail locking techniques have been transferred from one country, sector or continent to the respective places over the long period in which it is used”. Scientists are making their technology and open source available for others to use and possibly improve. “We see this as the starting point for many future research directions,” said co-author of the study, algorithm engineer Amanda Ghasaei at Adobe Research in San Francisco.
