| | | | Dresden: Encyclopedia II - Coventry - History Coventry is traditionally believed to have been established in the year 1043 with the founding of a Benedictine Abbey by Leofric, Earl of Mercia and his wife Lady Godiva.

| | | | Dresden: Encyclopedia - Anton Raphael Mengs Anton Raphael Mengs (March 12, 1728 - June 29, 1779) was a German painter.
Mengs was born in 1728 at Usti (Aussig) in Bohemia, but his father, Ismael Mengs, a Danish painter, established himself finally at Dresden, whence in 1741 he took his son to Rome.
