Khmer classical dance is a traditional form of dance in Cambodia which shares many similarities with classical dances of Thailand and Laos. The Cambodian form is known by various names in English, such as Khmer Royal Ballet and Cambodian Court Dance. Being a highly stylized art form performed primarily by females, Khmer classical dance, during the French protectorate era, was largely confined to the courts of royal palaces, performed by the consorts, concubines, relatives, and attendants of the palace.

A Study 1865-66 Julia Margaret Cameron British, born India This image, also titled After Perugino / The Annunciation, is one of more than 130 religiously themed images inspired by Camerons deep Christian devotion and her artistic admiration of Italian painting of the early Renaissance. Such photographs adhere to traditional iconography only in the broadest sense. Here, for example, Cameron follows the precedent of paintings of the Annunciation in which the angel Gabriel presents a lily—symbol of purity—to the Virgin Mary. More important, however, Camerons sincerity of sentiment imbues her work with an aura of devotion and claims for it a place equal to sacred art of the past. This print is inscribed For the Signor, indicating that it was a gift from Cameron to the painter G. F. Watts.. A Study 266256

Ravished Armenia, full title Ravished Armenia; the Story of Aurora Mardiganian, the Christian Girl, Who Survived the Great Massacres is a book written in 1918 by Arshaluys (Aurora) Mardiganian about her experiences in the Armenian Genocide. A Hollywood film based on it was filmed in 1919 under the title Auction of Souls (which also became to be known as Ravished Armenia, based on the book it was adapted from). All known complete copies of the film have since been lost, but Mardiganian's account is still in print.
