Lazio Roma Albano Laziale Museo Civico Archeologico81. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Post-medieval: Architecture, exterior (neoclassical); wall panels and painted ceiling Antiquities: Roman inscriptions, relief, sculpture, sarcophagi, brickstamps on bi-pedale fragments, cippi Object Notes: Bibliographic material housed in Center Library German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death. The result of this project, referred to by Hutzel as Foto Arte Minore, is thorough documentation of art historical development in Italy up to the 18th century, including objects of the Etruscans and the Romans, as well as early Medieval, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque monuments. Images are organized by geographic region in Italy, then by province, city, site complex and monument.

Orbicular rock Alderney, Channel Islands. Orbicular granite (orbicular rock or orbiculite) is an uncommon plutonic rock type which is usually granitic in composition. These rocks have a unique appearance due to orbicules - concentrically layered, spheroidal structures, probably formed through nucleation around a grain in a cooling magma chamber.
