## Scroll chronicle

The following four photographs are assigned exclusively to the four chapters of
the History chronicle. Captions distinguish documentary images from contextual
location imagery.

- `alexander-veigl.jpg` — official portrait of IOV founder Alexander Veigl,
  used for the 1979–1983 chapter. Source:
  https://iov.world/alexander-and-the-history-of-the-world-of-iov/ and
  https://iov.world/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Alexander-Vigel-English-Book-Cover-SIH-Final-1024x686.jpg.
  Rights are not stated on the source page; contact IOV for reuse.
- `monastir.jpg` — contextual view of Monastir, host city of the second World
  General Assembly in 1986. Used for the 1984–2004 chapter and the 1986 place
  card in the assembly index on this page. “View of Monastir from the ribat
  tower.jpg”, Gorik Francois, CC BY-SA 2.0:

- `nanjing-youth-congress.jpg` — delegates at the 2010 IOV World Youth Congress
  in Nanjing, used for the 2010–2019 chapter. Derived from the owner-supplied
  archive file `南京世界青年大会.png`; photographer not recorded. IOV partner
  archive; contact IOV for reuse.
- `/images/iov-assembly-sharjah-web.jpg` — participants at the eleventh World
  General Assembly in Sharjah in 2023, used for the 2020–today chapter. IOV
  archive photograph marked © Marin Forcella; contact IOV for reuse.

No authenticated photograph of the October 1979 founding meeting was available
in the supplied archive. The first chapter therefore uses the official portrait
of founder Alexander Veigl and does not present it as a photograph of that
meeting.

## World Assembly place cards

These licensed location images are used as subdued contextual backgrounds in
the “Across the world” assembly index on the History page. Repeated host cities
share one photograph within that single editorial context.
