Notice, #earlymodern #skystorians, the logo at the middle of the photo? The VOC (Dutch East India Company).

All the more reason to reckon with the legacies of these companies and how they integrate (or don't) with shifting ideas of globalisation, integration, capitalism, and national identity.

Le #Handala est encerclé par les drones israéliens.

Il pourrait être arrêté dans les prochaines heures.

La France devrait faire escorter la flottille par la marine et organiser un pont aérien pour l'aide alimentaire.

Pour l'heure, c'est à nous de les protéger : ne les quittons pas des yeux.

Excited to talk #animalhist with other art historians today at the “Interspecies Interactions in the Visual Arts”symposium, org by @claralanger.bsky.social and Oriane Poret. I’ll be speaking about seeking a “bird’s eye view” in avian photography, and finding (un)wanted encounters.

There is a false dichotomy drawn between "the ivory tower" and "the real world," and I'm here to report that in a post-industrial society, your real-world economy absolutely hinges on the university.

University towns are factory towns. Universities drive economic activity, not the other way around.

It’s the combination of the girl’s Sunday best attire and the soft shine of her pearls, each reflecting Verspronck’s meticulous technique. She’s portrayed as a small adult, though her subtle expression betrays the fact that she’s playing a role.
