Those are very useful, thank you for providing this! We definitely need people who do their research on these forums.
Nothing creates immersion like authenticity, after all!

Really? Than I could provide another one real useful link. At least I am using it very often by myself, while searching for some truly authentic references of furniture and tiny details. There is a lot of authentic furniture paintings, engravings. And of course a lot of pictures of furniture designs of the Amnesia time period plus-minus 50 years.

Plus, could this be in dev_resources? I mean, it's a resource, right? And, this could be put in important threads, for people to notice it.
