Toys Market Environment In China
New Post has been published on https://wr1tepress.com/toys-market-environment-in-china/
Toys Market Environment In China
The number of young kids under the age of 14 and infant, toddler and preschool in China is over 300,000,000, accounting for 25% of the whole population. Among them 80,000,000 live in the city, which form a large numbers of toy consumption.
The First Theft:
The first documented case of art theft was in 1473, when two panels of altarpiece of the Last Judgment by the Dutch painter Hans Memling were stolen. While the triptych was being transported by ship from the Netherlands to Florence, the ship was attacked by pirates who took it to the Gdansk cathedral in Poland. Nowadays, the piece is shown at the National Museum in Gdansk where it was recently moved from the Basilica of the Assumption. The Most Famous Theft: The most famous story of art theft involves one of the most famous paintings in the world and one of the most famous artists in history as a suspect. In the night of August 21, 1911, the Mona Lisa was stolen out of the Louver. Soon after, Pablo Picasso was arrested and questioned by the police, but was released quickly.
It took about two years until the mystery was solved by the Parisian police. It turned out that the 30×21 inch painting was taken by one of the museum employees by the name of Vincenzo Peruggia, who simply carried it hidden under his coat. Nevertheless, Peruggia did not work alone. The crime was carefully conducted by a notorious con man, Eduardo de Valfierno, who was sent by an art faker who intended to make copies and sell them as if they were the original painting.
While Yves Chaudron, the art faker, was busy creating copies for the famous masterpiece, Mona Lisa was still hidden at Peruggias apartment. After two years in which Peruggia did not hear from Chaudron, he tried to make the best out of his stolen good. Eventually, Peruggia was caught by the police while trying to sell the painting to an art dealer from Florence, Italy. The Mona Lisa was returned to the Louver in 1913.
The Biggest Theft in the USA:
The biggest art theft in United States took place at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. On the night of March 18, 1990, a group of thieves wearing police uniforms broke into the museum and took thirteen paintings whose collective value was estimated at around 300 million dollars. The thieves took two paintings and one print by Rembrandt, and works of Vermeer, Manet, Degas, Govaert Flinck, as well as a French and a Chinese artifact.
As of yet, none of the paintings have been found and the case is still unsolved. According to recent rumors, the FBI are investigating the possibility that the Boston Mob along with French art dealers are connected to the crime.
The Scream:
The painting by Edvard Munchs, The Scream, is probably the most sought after painting by art thieves in history. It has been stolen twice and was only recently recovered. In 1994, during the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, The Scream was stolen from an Oslo gallery by two thieves who broke through an open window, set off the alarm and left a note saying: thanks for the poor security.
Three months later, the holders of the painting approached the Norwegian Government with an offer: 1 million dollars ransom for Edvard Munchs The Scream. The Government turned down the offer, but the Norwegian police collaborated with the British Police and the Getty Museum to organize a sting operation that brought back the painting to where it belongs.
Ten years later, The Scream was stolen again from the Munch Museum. This time, the robbers used a gun and took another of Munchs painting with them. While Museum officials waiting for the thieves to request ransom money, rumors claimed that both paintings were burned to conceal evidence. Eventually, the Norwegian police discovered the two paintings on August 31, 2006 but the facts on how they were recovered are not known yet.

A couple of times it was our good friend Brit Seiersted in Norway who initiated the trips. She was actually a teacher of arts and crafts in Bergen, but also a theatre person, yes, an incredible person in general, she was everything. She appeared one day behind Tove's door in Helsinki, and she became our very good friend, big fun Brit. She decided that we should go on the Hurtigruten in Norway in 1984, and after that the three of us also went to the Faroe Islands.
It was also she who came up with the idea of a trip to London in 1988. She had contacts in the theatre and film world, and we saw lots of theatre and film, at least every other night some show. And we saw puppet theatre - that was our big idea, we were going to do puppet theatre together. Tove wrote the script, it was a story about Snufkin, I made the puppets and Brit sewed the clothes. We worked on this all summer in '87. Brit also came to Klovharun. But it was never performed. One of Brit's theatre friends, a young man, was going to take care of it all, and there were plans for it to be performed at the same time as the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer (1994). But he was offered a job at another theatre and had to leave the project - and then Brit fell ill and died, unexpectedly, and Tove fell ill too. It was a sad story. It's all still there. The figures, the puppet heads, were in Bergen until 1995, when they came here and were sent to the Tampere Art Museum.

Children do not write history, they make it.
                                                                   (Lillehammer, 2010, p.22)
Another group that has been overlooked in literature of Ancient Greece is children. Most of what we know from children are from inscriptions of Greek philosophers and their ideology of children and childhood. Plato, for instance, grouped children with women, salves, and animals (Golden, 2015, p.5). 
 Still, there are a number of objects such as toys and dolls that remain today that could tell us a little about children in the Ancient Greece. However, illustrations of children ,in the same way as Greek men and women, is rare, unless, they are depictions of gods and goddesses, that is. Even in those cases, children are often depicted looking like small adults and hence, they are hard to recognize and distinguish at times. There are several reasons for this. One explanations for example, is that the Ancient Greeks viewed children different from our modern perspective. To them, children were born with certain roles and were to continue their parents’ way of life. Of course, these roles would have differed for boys and girls but the emphasis on continuity of roles was the same. 
“In general, our sources stress continuity, describing children with reference to the same criteria they apply to adults--physical fitness, moral development, intelligent.”
                                                              (Golden, 2015, p.2)
Bellow are some of the few illustrations of children in Ancient Greece
Tumblr media
Name of object: boy playing with his yoyo Approximate date of object: 440 BCE - 420 BCE Type: Kylix Current Location: Altes Museum, Berlin
Tumblr media
Name of object: Boy drawing another in a cart Approximate date of object: 450 BCE - 430 BCE Type: Chous Current Location: Royal Museums of Art and History
Tumblr media
Name of object: Greek girl playing  Approximate date of object: 360-350 B.C. Material of object: Pottery Dimensions of object: 20.32 cm Type: Chous Current Location: The British Museum  Findspot: Puglia, Italy
Significance of the object: This chous (water jug) depicts a girl while she is playing with a dog. Her hair is long and tied up. In her right hand, she is holding a tortoise tied by a string and in the left hand she is holding a oinoche (a typeof jar). In front of her, the dog appears to be looking up at her and trying to catch the tortoise of her hand. 
These are some of the few objects that have depicted children alone and are on display in different museums. Not much attention has been given to these pieces and even the museum websites lack information on them. On the other hand, we have more remains depicting children alongside their parents.
Tumblr media
Name of object: Family Scene Approximate date of object: 440 BCE - 430 BCE Material of object: Terracotta Dimensions of object: w24.6 x h34.6 cm Type: Hydria Current Location: Harvard Art Museum Findspot: Ancient & Byzantine World, Europe, Vari (Attica)
Significance of object: This hydria (water jug) depicts a picture-perfect family in ancient Greece. There are four figures in this hydria: the mother, the father, the baby, and the nanny. On the right, we see a youthful man standing while looking down at the women. The women (the mother) is seating on a chair while holding her baby out to give him to the nanny who is shown on the left side.
Tumblr media
Name of object: Hector's last visit to his family before his duel with Achilles Approximate date of object: 370-360 BCE
Significance of the object: In this scene, Hector is depicted as he says his farewell to his wife Andromache and to their child Astyanax. 
What remains the most from Ancient Greek’s children are their toys that could tell us how they spent their days. Some of these toys included yo-yos, rattles, and dolls (some of which had moveable limbs!). Also, some of these toys and objects were meant to be used on children’s tombstone.

The crime scene after the robbery of "The Scream", Oslo, 1994
Edvard Munch's masterpiece was stolen during the opening ceremony of the Lillehammer Olympics when everyone, including the police, was focused on that.
It was all filmed by a surveillance camera. Two men set a 3.5 meter long ladder up against a window, smashed it and jumped in. 50 seconds later they came out and disappeared in a Mercedes with the painting. On the now empty wall the thieves left a postcard portraying some old men laughing their ass of. On the card it said: "Thanks for the poor security". 
Undercover agents from Scotland Yards art and antiques division assisted the investigation and ended up arresting the thieves after posing as buyers. In January 1996, four men were convicted in connection with the theft, including Pål Enger, who had stolen a Munch painting in 1988 by climbing in through a window at the Munch Museum.

Contemporary Mirrored Architecture 
When glass-sheathed corporate skyscrapers first started bouncing kaleidoscopic visions of architectural angles off their sleek façades in the 1960s, architects began to think about the possibilities of mirrored glass as a material. Half invisible, illuminated by light, a trick yet also a device, the mirror has alleviated architecture somewhat from its heaviness. It’s helped architects loosen up and have some fun too – expanding our relationships with urban and rural contexts, providing invisibility, camouflage and immersion.

Marketing Company - How can I find a local Marketing Company

Marketing Company - How can I find a local Marketing Company
Many businesses that are considering taking on a marketing agency, are then faced with the problem of which marketing company to use. Do you use someone local, someone cheap, someone that is recommended? By comparing quotes from marketing companies you can get a feel for what is on offer, how much you should be paying and an idea of how long results will take to show.
The First Theft:
The first documented case of art theft was in 1473, when two panels of altarpiece of the Last Judgment by the Dutch painter Hans Memling were stolen. While the triptych was being transported by ship from the Netherlands to Florence, the ship was attacked by pirates who took it to the Gdansk cathedral in Poland. Nowadays, the piece is shown at the National Museum in Gdansk where it was recently moved from the Basilica of the Assumption. The Most Famous Theft: The most famous story of art theft involves one of the most famous paintings in the world and one of the most famous artists in history as a suspect. In the night of August 21, 1911, the Mona Lisa was stolen out of the Louver. Soon after, Pablo Picasso was arrested and questioned by the police, but was released quickly.
It took about two years until the mystery was solved by the Parisian police. It turned out that the 30×21 inch painting was taken by one of the museum employees by the name of Vincenzo Peruggia, who simply carried it hidden under his coat. Nevertheless, Peruggia did not work alone. The crime was carefully conducted by a notorious con man, Eduardo de Valfierno, who was sent by an art faker who intended to make copies and sell them as if they were the original painting.
While Yves Chaudron, the art faker, was busy creating copies for the famous masterpiece, Mona Lisa was still hidden at Peruggias apartment. After two years in which Peruggia did not hear from Chaudron, he tried to make the best out of his stolen good. Eventually, Peruggia was caught by the police while trying to sell the painting to an art dealer from Florence, Italy. The Mona Lisa was returned to the Louver in 1913.
The Biggest Theft in the USA:
The biggest art theft in United States took place at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. On the night of March 18, 1990, a group of thieves wearing police uniforms broke into the museum and took thirteen paintings whose collective value was estimated at around 300 million dollars. The thieves took two paintings and one print by Rembrandt, and works of Vermeer, Manet, Degas, Govaert Flinck, as well as a French and a Chinese artifact.
As of yet, none of the paintings have been found and the case is still unsolved. According to recent rumors, the FBI are investigating the possibility that the Boston Mob along with French art dealers are connected to the crime.
The Scream:
The painting by Edvard Munchs, The Scream, is probably the most sought after painting by art thieves in history. It has been stolen twice and was only recently recovered. In 1994, during the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, The Scream was stolen from an Oslo gallery by two thieves who broke through an open window, set off the alarm and left a note saying: thanks for the poor security.
Three months later, the holders of the painting approached the Norwegian Government with an offer: 1 million dollars ransom for Edvard Munchs The Scream. The Government turned down the offer, but the Norwegian police collaborated with the British Police and the Getty Museum to organize a sting operation that brought back the painting to where it belongs.
Ten years later, The Scream was stolen again from the Munch Museum. This time, the robbers used a gun and took another of Munchs painting with them. While Museum officials waiting for the thieves to request ransom money, rumors claimed that both paintings were burned to conceal evidence. Eventually, the Norwegian police discovered the two paintings on August 31, 2006 but the facts on how they were recovered are not known yet.
