Wander Above the Sea Fog

This is definitely a Romantic painting, because Romantic art focuses on emotions,

feelings, and moods. The artist of this painting summed up Romanticism saying ?the artist?s feeling is his law?. The painting amazes the viewer with the beauty of nature at first but upon further review you see, this painting is meant to show how small man is compared to the rest of the world. The colors of the painting suggest that it is a meant to be happy because the theme is lighter colors. The man pictured looking away from the viewers is

looking out at a sunrise. Sunrises can be symbolized as new beginnings. The man is on a peak looking over the world through the clouds from the top of a mountain. This painting shows how in the time period people we were discovering how small we are compared to the rest of the world. We were discovering all new places, like the Americas. In the end this painting is very effective getting its message across the viewer.


VLADIMIRLENIN DIESATAGE53 January 21, 1924 - Vladimir Lenin, leader of the Russian Bolshevik Party dies at the age of 53. An assassination attempt by a gunman in 1918, left Lenin injured and weakened, which ultimately contributed to his untimely death. A succession of three severe strokes took his life. Due to all the stress and pressures from the revolution, Lenin was weary and exhausted and suffered his first stroke in May of 1922. Lenin?s first stroke left him unable to speak and hindered his physical movement. In December of 1922 Lenin suffered another stroke and had to relinquish his role as leader of the Russian Bolshevik Party. His last stroke in March 1923, left him disabled and incapacitated in his home in Gorki, near Moscow. Vladimir Lenin was in so

TOPTENPEOPLE,PLACESANDINVENTIONS OFTHEINDUSTRIALREVOLUTION #10 - Seed Dr ill The seed drill replaced farmers randomly throwing seeds on the fields with a quick and efficient way to plant seeds. It was pulled by a horse and had a plow that dug holes for the seeds to fall into. It planted seeds at a constant interval that allowed for more crops to grow in a smaller space and less seeds to be wasted. #9 - Teleph on e The telephone uses a transmitter, or microphone, and receiver to allow people to communicate across long distances in real time. The microphone converts the vibrations of the person talking into waves in an electric field. The receiver uses an electromagnet that turns electric current into sound waves. The telephone improved communication greatly because people #8 - St eam Locom ot ive The steam locomotive used James Watt?s steam engine, powered by coal to turn several sets of wheels. The steam locomotive made transporting large quantities of goods and materials quick and easy. Never before has mankind been able to transport such a large quantity of goods so quickly and reliably.

no longer had to wait for a letter to send through the mail or rely on the telegraph.


#7 - Pow er Loom The power loom sped up the procedure of weaving cloth into fabric. There was no need for humans to do any work with the power loom except for replacing broken threads. The power loom used James Watt?s steam engine to power it. The power loom allowed clothes and other goods to be made quickly and nicely.

#6 - Cot t on Gin The cotton gin separated seeds from cotton by turning a crank. It could produce as much cotton in one hour, as 100 people could in a full day. Because of the cotton gin, cotton prices decrease vastly.

#5 - Au t om obile The automobile used an internal combustion engine to turn a set of wheels and propel the vehicle forward. The automobile created a reliable and quick source of personal transportation. People could travel long distances quickly and comfortably. The automobile was more reliable than the horse and could move


#4 - Hen r y For d Henry Ford created the world?s first affordable automobile. In 1908, he created the Model T which only cost $800. The cheap price of the Model T allowed many people to buy it. Henry Ford sold over 15 million Model T?s.

#3 - Th om as Edison Thomas Edison was responsible for many inventions during the Industrial Revolution, the most important being the incandescent light bulb. The light bulb lit up the world after the sun went down. People could work into the night, and it lit up homes and streets.

#2 - St eam En gin e The steam engine uses steam that builds pressure in a tank to move a large piston. Steam engines were used in factories, coal mines, steam locomotives and boats. They were used to perform mechanical work that was usually done by animals or people.


#1 - Br it ain The Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the 18th century. Britain had large iron and coal deposits which helped start the Industrial Revolution. Britain also had a strong society and many colonies which could provide raw materials and a place to sell goods produced in factories.

JAMESWATT James Watt, 83, of Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland, died on the 25th of August, 1819. He is preceded in death by his mother, Agnes Muirhead, his father, James Watt, his first wife, Margaret Miller, and five of his six children, John, Margaret, Agnes, Gregory, and Janet Watt, and he is survived by his wife, Ann MacGregor, and his son, James Watt Jr. Watt was a mechanical engineer and inventor and his most noteworthy patent was the improvements on the Newcomen steam engine. He engineered an independent condensing chamber that made the steam engine more efficient by preventing loss of steam. The steam engine was one of the greatest inventions of the Industrial Revolution. Watt was also a member of the Lunar Society which was an organization of writers and scientists that promoted the sciences and arts. His ideas which contributed to the advancement of science and industry will be greatly missed. Services will be held at St. Mary Churchyard in Handsworth, Metropolitan Borough of Birmingham, West Midlands, England.


SongReview byColbyWatts

"HardTimesintheMill" Hard Times in the Mill by Pete Seeger speaks of the hard everyday life of a cotton mill worker in the 1890?s. The last two lines of every verse in the song ends with ?It?s hard times in the mill my love / Hard times in the mill?. The repetition of these lines reinforce the idea that working in the cotton mills was hard and tiring work. The workers worked long hard hours: ?Every morning just at five / Gotta get up, dead or alive / Ain't it enough to break your heart / Have to work all day, an' at night it's dark?. These lines emphasize the long work days. Mill workers were paid very little for their efforts and didn?t make enough to support their families: ?An' every night when I go home / A piece o' cornbread an' an ol' jawbone?. Hard Times in the Mill depicts the hard working conditions and everyday struggles

of workers during the Industrial Revolution.



W R IT T E N B Y : THELIFEOFHENRYFORD COLBYWATTS Henry Ford was a brilliant man with an innovative mind. He was born in Dearborn Michigan on July 30, 1863, to William and Mary Ford, where they lived on a successful and thriving farm. When Henry Ford was 12, his mother passed away due to difficulties during childbirth. To cope with the raw emotions of his mother ?s death, Henry occupied his time by taking things apart to see how they worked. He was very inquisitive and enjoyed fixing things around his home. He had a particular interest in watches and spent many hours fixing them in a machinery shop during the nights. At the young age of 16, Henry left home and found work as a machinist in Detroit, Michigan. In 1888, he married his childhood sweetheart, Clara Bryant, who grew up with Henry on a nearby farm. They lived in a log cabin that Henry built using a motorized sawmill. In the early years of their marriage, Henry supported his family running a sawmill, but in his spare time, he liked to tinker with different types of engines. In 1891 he was hired on as


an engineer at the Edison Illuminating Company and quickly worked his way up as chief engineer. In 1896, in his backyard shed, Ford built his first gasoline-powered horseless carriage, called the Quadricycle. Henry Ford established The Ford Motor Company in 1903, where the first affordable and reliable automobile, The Model T, was mass produced using Ford?s invention of the assembly line. The mass produced Model T made life easier for people. Going into town for supplies was no longer a dangerous, all-day affair. It was more efficient and reliable than a

horse drawn carriage and its affordability made it accessible to the average American worker. Back in the 1900?s, the Ford Model T had an inline four engine that produced 22 horsepower and a top speed of 40-45 mph. In 1908 it cost $825, but later dropped to less than $300 in 1925. Ford was a major contributor during the Industrial Revolution, greatly impacting the transportation and travel industries. At the age of 83, Henry Ford died, leaving behind a legacy that changed the lives of millions. The Ford Motor Company still exists today and is a prosperous and well respected company over 100 years later.


EFFECTSOF REVOLUTION


The Industrial Revolution was a movement in the 17 and

1800?s that pushed for more manufactured goods from factories and less agriculture. It brought game changing inventions like the lightbulb, steam engine, telephone, and many more. The Industrial Revolution also had many effects on our daily lives as well, like urbanization, pollution, and the Technological Revolution. Although Urbanization has many positives, it also has many negatives. One of these negatives is that many cities, like France, were not meant to have as many people as they have. This means waste management became a huge problem in some cities especially France. Waste management was just a short term problem because in two centuries the world population starts growing at such a rapid rate that the death rate can not keep up. This is leading to overpopulation in many countries, like India and China were about ? of the population now lives. Urbanization then leads to another huge problem, pollution. Pollution, unlike urbanization truly had no positive effects. At the time they did not think very much of the coal they were burning and CO2 that they were releasing into the atmosphere. They only described small things like complaining about giant clouds of smoke blocking the sun. What these people did not realize is the effect that this CO2 would have on our planet. The Industrial Revolution damages our planet to a point where it is unrepairable. Pollution brings many current world problems, such as global warming, bad drinking water, and acid rain. Global warming is one that many scientists argue whether or not it is caused by our pollution, but at this point climates are rising at rates we have never seen before. The Industrial Revolution directly lead us into the Technological Revolution, or the fourth wave, and just like the Industrial Revolution it eliminated most of the jobs from the previous wave. With the Technological Revolution things like computers, cell phones, and other electronic devices became available. The Technological Revolution changed how people live their lives, like people in the Industrial Revolution would be typing this paper out on a typewriter. It changed our social lives with the introduction of Facebook and Instagram, but with all revolutions there are some downsides. This revolution brings death by suicide up because social media creates this feeling of no escape for kids that are being bullied because of the introduction of cyber bullying. It also introduces a new way to get power through nuclear power and many danger that come with that. As you can see, the Industrial Revolution had many different temporary effects, but also a lot of long term effects too.


For Sale The light bulb is a revolutionary invention that uses electricity to light up rooms. Previously you had to use candle-lit lanterns. Now you can light a room with the flip of a switch without some of the minor dangers like lighting things on fire. When you go to big cities like London or Paris you will be able to see that all the buildings are using this invention that only costs 23 dollars and lasts for 13.5 hours straight!!! This was invention is now patented by Thomas Edison.

Telephone

The telephone is a brand new invention patented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. This device allows you to talk to family and friends from New York to France. It is revolutionary because you no longer have to bring your car or carriage all the way to New York to meet and talk to your family, simply use your brand new telephone to call them. Tele phones range from 20 to 30 dollars, but nothing compared to the time you save just dialing people you need to talk to rather than walking there. This is definitely a necessity and a time saver!

SteamEngine The steam engine is another invention hot on the market right now. Created by Tom Savery, this invention was originally created to pump water out of coal mines. Now this is being transferred into factories, and if you are a factory owner we have the item for you. This costs much more than the others, costing 100 dollars; however, this invention can be used in your factory to help bring production levels to a new level. It is a simple invention that goes a long way!


This comic is kept very simple; however it shows how the some people in our day and time would have been looked at in industrial times. The background is made to look like industrial times, while their clothes are obviously made to look like modern day people. The exclamations and question

marks are meant to bring out the sub text. Overall I feel like this is a good representation of how this situation would have played off in the Industrial Revolutionary times.
