The Utrecht Psalter is one of the finest manuscripts of this period and probably the most unusual Psalter of the Middle Ages. It was written out and painted between 820 and 840 in the Benedictine abbey of Hautvillers near Rheims, on the initiative of Ebbo, archbishop of Rheims and a foster brother of Emperor Louis the Pious. This sumptuous illuminated work of the Carolingian period is the earliest surviving example of an illustrated Psalter in Western book production. . .

Eclipse was bred in 1764 by the Duke of Cumberland. He was foaled at either Cranbourne or Cumberland Lodge, in Windsor Park, although local pride has given him as many other birthplaces as Homer. He was exceptionally big for his time - 15.2 or 15.3 - but his height is a matter of perennial debate. George Stubbs, (1724-1806) who painted him as a six-year-old, does not show the unusual conformation on which many contemporaries remarked: his quarters were perceptibly higher than his withers. Descended from the Darley Abrabian breed of horse, his lineage is with the modern Thoroughbred.

Plane with a glass nose for mapmakers. Designed for the use of aerial mappers, an unusual, glass nosed aeroplane has been undergoing tests at Marshall, Michigan.

Enough to give him the hump. This strange picture seems to indicate that the mythical sea serpent has at last been captured. But the 'monster' is merely a snarling camel which is objecting very strongly to taking a seasonal bath in the Suez Canal. An unsociable animal at the best of times the camels temper isn't improved by the sudden immersion and he shows it by hissing a snarling at his persecutors. Bath time for the camel is no ordinary job the animal and can be very dangerous. It is therefore fettered with strong ropes 14 April 1937 Stock Photohttps://www.alamy.com/licenses-and-pricing/?v=1https://www.alamy.com/enough-to-give-him-the-hump-this-strange-picture-seems-to-indicate-that-the-mythical-sea-serpent-has-at-last-been-captured-but-the-monster-is-merely-a-snarling-camel-which-is-objecting-very-strongly-to-taking-a-seasonal-bath-in-the-suez-canal-an-unsociable-animal-at-the-best-of-times-the-camels-temper-isnt-improved-by-the-sudden-immersion-and-he-shows-it-by-hissing-a-snarling-at-his-persecutors-bath-time-for-the-camel-is-no-ordinary-job-the-animal-and-can-be-very-dangerous-it-is-therefore-fettered-with-strong-ropes-14-april-1937-image359616035.html
