尼科梅迪亚的尤西比乌斯对西林国王的洗礼,弓箭手公会祭坛画-马尔滕·德沃斯
-The central panel shows Christ Triumphant, trampling a dragon, a skull and a scorpion (symbols of sin, death and heresy respectively) and with two angels holding laurel leaves over his head. The guild\'s patron saint George is shown at Christ\'s right hand, with the princess of Silene at Christ\'s left hand - she also acts as a personification of Ecclesia or the Church by holding a lamb. At Christ\'s feet are Saint Peter and Paul the Apostle, holding Bibles open at Acts 2.17-24 and Romans 6.8-14 respectively.
The side panels show two scenes from the life of Saint George, the baptism of the king of Silene by Eusebius of Nicomedia and the king of Silene building a church in honour of Mary. The reverses of the side panels show St George and the princess of Silene returning to the city with the defeated dragon.

-The Pearl S. Buck House at Green Hills Farm, an example of 19th century (built 1825[4]) Pennsylvanian architecture, is constructed of coursed fieldstone. It is four bays wide and two deep with the main entrance located in the second bay. Two gable dormers are located on the front and rear slope of the roof. Chimneys are located on each gable end. When Buck purchased the farmstead, she made extensive alterations and additions to the 19th century farmhouse, including a two-story fieldstone wing added to the east gable and two libraries. Today, visitors can tour twelve rooms of the home and visit the pre-Revolutionary War cottage on the property and the barn built in 1827.
In the large library, two Pennsylvania jugs serve as lamp bases upon a hand carved Chinese hardwood desk, at which Buck wrote her breakthrough novel The Good Earth. Buck filled her home with works of original art by Chen Chi and Freeman Elliot[citation needed], iron works of art produced by exiled artisans in China, Peking Fetti carpets that survived revolutions in China, and some of her own sculptures
