The Death of Socrates (1787) by the French artist Jacques-Louis David. This famous scene, described in the writings of Plato (at foot of bed), shows the Ancient Greek philosopher Socrates (c.470-399 BC, centre) still teaching his students in prison as he reaches for a cup of hemlock (a poison) with which to commit suicide. This scene followed his conviction for corrupting the youth of Athens with his teachings. His friend Crito is holding his leg. In the background, his wife is seen leaving the prison.

As the hairstyles became more elaborate, so too did the decorations that adorned these ladies tresses.

Boston Tea Party. 19th-century illustration of the destruction of tea in Boston Harbour on 16 December 1773, an event known as the Boston Tea Party. This was a political protest by a group of colonists in defiance of the British requirement to purchase tea from the East India Company. This was one of the events that led to the outbreak of open warfare two years later in 1775 as part of the American Revolution (1775-1783). This lithograph, by Sarony and Major, was published in New York in around October 1846.
