"The Severity of Times: From Berlin Riots to Earthquakes and Artistic Portraits" In a striking image, Her Von Jagow, the German Police President, is captured on horseback, clad in hunting gear. Dubbed as "The Hero" of the Recent Berlin Riots, his presence signifies the severity of the unrest that gripped the city. A seismograph reading taken from Birmingham's Omori Horizontal pendulum reveals the true magnitude of tremors during San Francisco's devastating earthquake in 1906. The graph paints a vivid picture of the severity experienced by those affected by this natural disaster. Amidst political turmoil and ideological clashes, a bold headline reads "FRENCH HANG BOLSHEVIKS. " This provocative statement highlights the intensity and seriousness surrounding revolutionary movements at that time. Pieter Haringh the Younger's etching from 1655 transports us back to an era where art was used to depict severe social conditions. His work serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, artists sought to capture and convey moments marked by gravity. Moving forward through time, we encounter portraits such as Andrea Frizier's painting and Faustina Bertoldi's oil on cardboard masterpiece from 1920. These artworks showcase not only their subjects' physical features but also evoke emotions that hint at deeper complexities or personal struggles - emphasizing how art can reflect human experiences with utmost severity. Napoleon appears twice within our collection - once immortalized in marble during early 19th century France. These sculptures symbolize both his power and influence over Europe while reminding us of his reign characterized by military might and strict rule. Luca Giordano's self-portrait painted in oils during the 17th century captures an artist who understood severity firsthand. Through brushstrokes on canvas, he reveals his own inner battles with creativity and self-expression - demonstrating how artistic endeavors can be fraught with challenges.
