Nobel & Lessner
The Nobel & Lessner Company was formed in 1912 by the merger of Ludwig Nobel Works and G. A. Lessner Works to build submarines for the Imperial Russian Navy. Ludwig Nobel specialized in diesel engines and Lessner had built a very small experimental submarine (''Keta'') in 1905. The engine plant remained in Saint Petersburg, but a new shipyard was built in Reval, Estonia in 1913–1914. The hulls of first three submarines contracted for were built by the Admiralty Works and moved to Reval while the new shipyard was under construction. Five submarines were built in 1915–1916 before construction was disrupted by the February Revolution of 1917. The company was renamed as Petrograd Shipyard (''Petrovskaya Verf'') in 1916.de Saint Hubert and Drashpil, pp. 355–56 References Bibliography * See also *Noblessner Noblessner (also known as Peetri sadam) is a harbour and former industrial area in the northern district of Tallinn, Estonia.

Historicism (art)
Historicism or historism (german: Historismus) comprises artistic styles that draw their inspiration from recreating historic styles or imitating the work of historic artisans. Lucie-Smith, Edward. ''The Thames and Hudson Dictionary of Art Terms''. London: Thames & Hudson, 1988, p. 100. This is especially prevalent in architecture, such as Revival architecture. Through a combination of different styles or implementation of new elements, historicism can create completely different aesthetics than former styles. Thus, it offers a great variety of possible designs. Overview In the history of art, after Neoclassicism which in the Romantic era could itself be considered a historicist movement, the 19th century included a new historicist phase characterized by an interpretation not only of Greek and Roman classicism, but also of succeeding stylistic eras, which were increasingly respected. In particular in architecture and in the genre of history painting, in which historical subj ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Viaduct
A viaduct is a specific type of bridge that consists of a series of arches, piers or columns supporting a long elevated railway or road. Typically a viaduct connects two points of roughly equal elevation, allowing direct overpass across a wide valley, road, river, or other low-lying terrain features and obstacles. The term ''viaduct'' is derived from the Latin ''via'' meaning "road", and ''ducere'' meaning "to lead". It is a 19th-century derivation from an analogy with ancient Roman aqueducts. Like the Roman aqueducts, many early viaducts comprised a series of arches of roughly equal length. Over land The longest in antiquity may have been the Pont Serme which crossed wide marshes in southern France. At its longest point, it measured 2,679 meters with a width of 22 meters. Viaducts are commonly used in many cities that are railroad hubs, such as Chicago, Birmingham, London and Manchester. These viaducts cross the large railroad yards that are needed for freight trains there, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
