Cambrian来自于英国威尔士的一个古代地名罗马名称 “Cambria”,该地的寒武纪地层被最早研究。“寒武纪”一词是英国地质学家塞奇威克(A Sedgwick)于1835年首次引进地质文献的。原指泥盆纪老红砂岩之下的所有地层。在罗马人统治的时代,北威尔士山曾称寒武山,因此赛德维克便将这个时期称为寒武纪。通过铀铅测年法测量其延续时间为5370万年。中文名称源自旧时日本人使用日语汉字音读的音译名“寒武纪”(音读:カンブキ,罗马字:kanbuki)。
里士满区(Richmond),早在500年前就是英国国王女王们最青睐的地区,区内拥有英国凡尔赛宫之称的汉普顿宫、乔治王朝的邱园宫殿,以及众多王公大臣、富贵名流的别墅庄园。
英国文明的母亲河泰晤士河流经里士满区,辖区拥有皇家森林公园公园、布什公园等两大皇家公园,英国皇家植物园邱园、伦敦湿地自然保护中心、汉普顿公园、汉姆庄园公园等数十个大型绿地公园。里士满镇中心的Richmond Hill是英国唯一通过国会专门立法重点保护的景观保护区。
@耶鲁大学英国艺术中心:In order to escape the pollution of central London in 1913, Spencer Gore moved his young family to Cambrian Road, a pleasant street of Victorian terraced villas in suburban Richmond. Gore took this street as his subject in a number of paintings that same year. He had long been interested in the latest French art, having been introduced to the impressionists by Walter Sickert in 1904. By 1913 he had become enamored with the work of Paul Cézanne and began experimenting with angular patches of color in his work in imitation of Cézanne’s approach. Despite seeking the new suburban dream, a vision captured in this view of his own tree-lined street, Gore died of pneumonia at the age of thirty-five, less than a year after moving to Richmond.
