Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: Good. Group of Seven, Tom Thomson, Franz Johnston, F.H. Varley, A.Y. Jackson, Lawren Harris, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H. MacDonald, Frank Carmichael, Lionel Fitzgerald, Edwin Holgate (illustratore). First Edition. pp. 80. "Although paintings by members of the Group of Seven have been included in all major exhibitions of Canadian painting, there has been only one important exhibition devoted exclusively to their work since 1933, when the Group of Seven was merged into the larger Canadian Group of Painters: this was held at the National Gallery of Canada in 1936. The present exhibition, then, may be regarded as the second such survey. It differs from the first by the addition of works by Franz Johnston, who was a member of the Group for a short time, and Tom Thomson, who was never a member, but who has been included in this exhibition on grounds of style and association. This is certainly the first time that any major collection of the work of the Group of Seven has been seen in Vancouver." - Introduction. Includes article by Lawren Harris entitled "The Story of the Group of Seven" and an article by R.H. Hubbard entitled "The National Movement in Canadian Painting". Catalogue proper begins on page 19 and includes colour and black and white reproductions of thirty-one works. Unmarked with moderate wear. 23 x 15cm. Lerner & Williamson 1747 Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Stapled Booklet.

Two vintage studio still photographs from the 1929 part-talkie film. Mimeo snipes on the versos. Loosely based on the 1874 novel by Jules Verne. The benevolent scientist-leader of a volcanic island is attacked by an evil baron, leading to a submarine chase in which they discover a race of water-bound humanoids. Shooting for the film began in 1926, but the advent of talkies and bad weather would slow production, ultimately delaying release until 1929. Lauded as an impressive cinematic feat, the astronomical price tag of the productionover $1 million in 1929all but guaranteed the film would be a financial disaster at the box office, turning studios off to the idea of science fiction for many years. All color copies were believed lost, but in 2013 one existing color print was discovered in Prague and has since been restored through a collaboration between US film experts and the Czech National Film Archive. 8 x 10 inches. With even fading, else Near Fine.
