Teeth blackening is a custom used to dye one's teeth black. It was primarily done to preserve the teeth into old age, as it prevents tooth decay similar to the mechanism of modern dental sealants. It was believed that only savages, wild animals, and demons had long white teeth.

It was most predominantly practiced in Southeast Asian and Oceanic cultures but also among some groups in the Americas, most notably among the Shuar people of northern Peru and Ecuador.

Located primarily in the mountain areas in the North of Vietnam, the terraced rice fields are called the “stairway to Heaven” by many people. These are the result of really amazing work over a hundred years by local hill tribes.

Unlike rice cultivation on the plain, the Vietnam terraced rice fields can be cultivated with only one crop per year, normally from June to October. Starting in September, the fields change from green to yellow in preparation for the new harvest.

Still quite proud of this papyrus painting of the Meidum geese I did in 2012, so I'm pleased one will be winging its way to Germany on a poster. Thank you as always to everyone who supports me on Redbubble 🌞🦁

Also known as the Meidum geese, this piece from the Old Kingdom demonstrates the naturalistic forms that could be achieved by ancient artists. The frieze was in the tomb chapel of the noblewoman Atet ...

I do feel absolutely insane about how many eulogy posts for Björn Andrésen /exclusively/ use pictures of him as an underage boy, the very image that cast a shadow over the rest of his life.

Björn Andrésen was a 70 year old man, not an ethereal boy stuck in eternal youth. He was real.

As the weather keeps acting up and isn’t giving me any window to even try photographing Comet Lemmon, I’m killing time by reprocessing old data—here the Orion Nebula I last captured two years ago with my DSLR and a standard zoom lens (time now to go back with a proper setup). 🔭

“Kipling was fond of foraging for fledgling fern fronds.”

Hi BlueSky folks! I’m excited to support this little fledgling app :)

I tried an alternate version where I shined a green laser at the back of the fern so it would glow. I prefer the natural light though.

Day 30 - Dream. The final day of #sciartseptember. My long-term dream has always been to create a series of illustrated guides that would help identify the various jellies and jellyfish of the would. Creating illustrations like the ones below to accurately ID species.

Comet, Stellar Pup for Magic the Gathering’s Unfinity set. Oil paints on Arches oil paper. I got my inspiration for Comet from Laika, the Russian space dog who was the first animal to orbit the Earth. 🐶🚀❤️

William De Morgan was the Arts & Crafts movement’s most brilliant and prolific ceramic artist.

This biscuit (cookie) set is inspired by some of his many tile designs. 🍪
Nine square biscuits arranged into a square to look like a panel of old tiles. The biscuit set features an array of designs in shades of blue, green, red, and cream. On the top row, there are: a striking blue deer with purple-red spots; a symmetrical leafy design with a vivid blue flower at the centre; and a glazed relief of a lion and a lioness facing in opposite directions against a patchy rust-red background. The middle row includes: a stylised green line drawing of a galleon ship on choppy waters; two flowers on a rich blue background; and a design densely filled with small green leaves and pomegranates. The bottom row features: a monochrome design with small red leaves and flowers; a symmetrical design with spirals, leaves, and flower shapes in shades of blue; and a glazed biscuit with a Tudor rose and leaves in spruce green against a rich blue background.

ほ(帆)座の超新星残骸。
かつて存在した恒星がその最後に爆発をした名残です。
この超新星残骸の元になった超新星爆発は、1万数千年前に起こったようですが、私たちの祖先はその輝きを目撃したのでしょうか。
