 Humanities > History
A webring dedicated to 18th century life: music, history, art, fashion, science and literature. Everything from Mozart to the American Revolution, from the Duchess of Devonshire (whose portrait is the logo for this ring) to Gainsborough (who painted that portrait), from Queen Anne to King Louis XIV, the 18th century was a remarkable period of history, and the sites in this ring reflect that.
