We have collected some photos that vividly show how different life used to be and take us back to the past with their rarity and fascination.
history
Historical photographs always hold up a mirror to us. Where we are now, how it used to be, how much everything has changed. See photos from the last century that surprise on many levels. Some because of the changes that have occurred, others because they are so rare or fascinating. But they all remind us that even today's times will pass once and change fundamentally.
High heels may seem like a modern phenomenon, but this is far from the case. Did you know that high heels were first worn by men or horsemen? Napoleon even predicted wars in them! The path to high heels is centuries old and is surrounded by at least as many stories as the beard of King Matthias wrapped around the table. Already in the 15th and 16th centuries, platforms made of cork and wood ruled. Reason? Practicality (so that clothes do not drag on the floor) or flaunting wealth and social standing - depending on who you ask. Over the years, high-heeled shoes have become a symbol of self-confidence and sexiness, and women also love them because they optically lengthen their legs.
Batman, the dark knight, has already walked the comic book and film runways in a number of costumes. In 75 years, as many years as this anti-hero character counts, otherwise no 'comic/film' collection has deviated from the color black - his image must blend (physically) with darkness and (poetically) dark personality - and that's why he went to the designer's surgery table so many times his logo, which has seen more incarnations over the years than David Bowie.
At the end of the ski season in the Alps, we prefer to turn south and start dreaming about the joys of the Mediterranean, but because of the proximity, both in kilometers and because of the historical and cultural connection, it is worth visiting the most famous part of Bavaria south of Munich, at least for the weekend was helped to world fame by one...
A small notebook has always been an indispensable companion of every writer, artist, and dreamer. The original served as inspiration for the creation of perhaps the most popular in the world known as Moleskine. In the year that this brand celebrates its 25th anniversary, we will look back at the history of the famous black notebook and its path to cult status.
The reason why we celebrate Christmas on December 25th is probably known to all of us - that's when we remember the birth of Jesus. But you probably didn't know that this date doesn't really have much to do with Jesus' coming into the world. Are you ready to learn a completely different truth about this most joyous holiday of the year?
Do you remember how it was when we had to look for information in books? The younger generation probably can't even imagine it, but that's what life was like before the Internet. Did you know that we Slovenians entered the digital age 25 years ago, when we got our first Internet connection, after which data flowed at a snail's pace? Everything else is history. Life after the Internet is no longer the same. We do many things much differently today than before. What a very different, endearing way they outline these illustrations.
We are only a few days away from the day when the Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone hits the shelves. These days, seven years have passed since Samsung introduced the first generation of Galaxy, the Samsung Galaxy S. You can see how much progress it has made in all this time in the attached clip.
Porsche is synonymous with speed and tradition. His 911 is considered the best sports car of all time, and if we dig into the history books of motoring for achievements, it would be like hitting a golden vein. The history of motoring is imbued with the successes of this German car manufacturer, which grew out of a design bureau. Despite its reputation, we bet you don't know everything about it yet.
If you want to find out what the world was like in the past, flip through your grandmother's or parents' family photo album. Habits that your loved ones once had will seem ridiculous to you. Their 'antique' look is especially amusing. And you will surely find it strange that your mother or grandmother looked very old when she entered her thirties. Today's 30-year-old women could easily subtract 10 years. Why is that?
The Promise is a historical drama by Terry George, which is raising a lot of dust even before it arrives in cinemas. It takes us back to the time of the Ottoman Empire, which carried out the genocide of the Armenian population in 1915, which serves as the backdrop for a love triangle consisting of Christian Bale, Oscar Isaac and Charlotte le Bon. Although only a handful have seen the film so far, it already has almost 90,000 reviews on iMDB. On the one hand, he gets tens, and on the other, only ones, and people more than obviously evaluate the film according to its political beliefs and not its quality or. truthfulness. It is one of the most expensive independent films of all time. They spent as much as 100 million dollars on it!
