History

Answer:

Giovanni Francesco Melzi was an Italian Renaissance painter, student of Leonardo da Vinci. He was a very talented artist who worked as a secretary and assistant to Leonardo, who in his later years could not use his hands.

Explanation:

He belonged to a noble but impoverished Milanese family. His father Girolamo had served as captain of the Milanese militia in the service of Louis XII of France. The young Francesco became part of Leonardo da Vinci's house around 1507, during the artist's second stay in the Lombard capital. A drawing conserved in the Ambrosian Library of Milan, dated August 14, 1510 and signed "Francescho di Melzo di anni 17" is his first work conserved and helps us to fix the date of his birth quite accurately. From 1508, his name appears frequently in the papers of the teacher, sometimes under the appellative names of Cecho or Cechino. He accompanied Leonardo on his trips to Rome in 1513 and to France in 1517.

The look of his personal relationship with Leonardo is not entirely clear, even suggests a possible homosexual love between disciple and teacher. However, it should be mentioned that after the death of Leonardo, Melzi married a beautiful Milanese lady, Angiola Landriani, with whom she had nothing more and nothing less than eight children. In any case, it was very close to the teacher's heart, as evidenced by the fact that Leonardo spent almost the whole year 1512 retired in the town that the Melzi had in Vaprio d'Adda.

What happened during the Panama canal in 1899-1913
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Panama Canal, Spanish Canal de Panamá, lock-type canal, owned and administered by the Republic of Panama, that connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans through the narrow Isthmus of Panama. The length of the Panama Canal from shoreline to shoreline is about 40 miles (65 km) and from deep water in the Atlantic (more specifically, the Caribbean Sea) to deep water in the Pacific about 50 miles (82 km). The canal, which was completed in August 1914, is one of the two most strategic artificial waterways in the world, the other being the Suez Canal. Ships sailing between the east and west coasts of the United States, which otherwise would be obliged to round Cape Horn in South America, shorten their voyage by about 8,000 nautical miles (15,000 km) by using the canal. Savings of up to 3,500 nautical miles (6,500 km) are also made on voyages between one coast of North America and ports on the other side of South America. Ships sailing between Europe and East Asia or Australia can save as much as 2,000 nautical miles (3,700 km) by using the canal.

Importance:

Before the Panama Canal was built, ships traveling between the east and west coasts of the American continents had to go around Cape Horn in South America, a voyage that was some 8,000 nautical miles longer then going through the canal and that took about two months to complete. All journeys between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans are shortened by thousands of nautical miles by going through the canal.
