Alfred Edward Chalon RA (15 de fevereiro de 1780 – 3 de outubro de 1860) foi um pintor de retratos suíço. Ele viveu em Londres, onde chegou a ser nomeado Pintor de Retratos em Aquarela da rainha Vitória.

Biografia

Alfred nasceu em Genebra, na Suíça, mas ele e sua família se mudaram para a Inglaterra após seu pai conseguir um cargo de docência na Real Academia Militar de Sandhurst.[3][4]

Junto com seu irmão, John James Chalon (1778-1854), Alfred decidiu tornar-se um artista. Ele foi aceito na Escola de Artes da Academia Real Inglesa em 1797 e tornou-se membro do Associated Artists in Water-Colours, um grupo de aquarelistas.[5][6] Na Academia ele foi eleito associado (ARA) em 1812 e depois acadêmico (RA) em 1816.[7]

Conhecido por seus retratos da elite londrina, ele foi escolhido pela rainha Vitória para fazer uma pintura — retratando a rainha em seu traje real dirigindo-se à Câmara dos Lordes para seu primeiro ato oficial: a prorrogação do Parlamento em 17 de julho de 1837[8] — com a qual ela presentearia sua mãe, Vitória de Saxe-Coburgo-Koháry.[9] Após essa tarefa, que foi a primeira pintura da rainha após sua ascensão ao trono, Alfred recebeu o título de Pintor de Retratos em Aquarela de Sua Majestade e ganhou notoriedade.[6][10] Tal retrato foi gravado por Samuel Cousins em estampas que foram distribuídas ao público no dia da coroação de Vitória, 28 de junho de 1838.[9][11][12] Começando em 1851, vários selos postais britânicos foram feitos tomando como inspiração o retrato de Alfred, incluindo a série de selos da Cabeça de Chalon.[3]

Alfred morreu em 3 de outubro de 1860, em Campden Hill, Kensington, aos 80 anos.

Simulated eye diagram displaying a DDR3 signal waveform Signal integrity or SI is a set of measures of the quality of an electrical signal. In digital electronics, a stream of binary values is represented by a voltage (or current) waveform. However, digital signals are fundamentally analog in nature, and all signals are subject to effects such as noise, distortion, and loss. Over short distances and at low bit rates, a simple conductor can transmit this with sufficient fidelity. At high bit r...

 

Carbon arc welding (CAW) is a process which produces coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc between a non-consumable carbon (graphite) electrode and the work-piece. It was the first arc-welding process developed but is not used for many applications today, having been replaced by twin-carbon-arc welding and other variations. The purpose of arc welding is to form a bond between separate metal pieces. In carbon-arc welding a carbon electrode is used to produce an electric arc between...
