Paperback. Condizione: New. This edition of Phoebus Focus revolves around Frances Bell, the future Lady Dering, and her portrait. It's a story of deeply human emotions - devotion to a husband imposed upon her, anxieties about children, fear of untimely death, yet also of a love of beauty, a sense of quality and a secret eye for…luxury. The portrait of Frances Bell shows us what it meant to be a woman in early seventeenth-century England. And perhaps what it means to be a woman, no matter what life throws at you, or when.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In this edition of Phoebus Focus, Lotte Kokkedee and Anna Tummers' analysis extends beyond technology. They position Two Fisherboys in the context of Hals' oeuvre. After all, are these seemingly innocent children what they appear to be? The boy smiling mischievously looks like he's putting a crab in h…is friend's basket. Is the painter actually alluding to a Dutch proverb 'een pad in iemands korf zetten' (literally translated as to put a toad in someone's basket, which means landing someone in hot water), and is this charming scene actually one full of playful cunning? The happy anticipation of a roguish joke while performing their hard labour? After all, the life of a fisherman was no laughing matter. This makes Two Fisherboys not only an intimate portrait of youthful spontaneity, but above all a masterful embodiment of the condition humane, captured in Hals'inimitable style.

Hardback. Condizione: New. 'Through this extraordinary selection of photographs and accompanying text,we follow elephants on their journey from Ancient Rome to Coney Island and beyond. Across battlefields and city bridges, in railway cars and circus rings, adored, applauded and at times brutally mistreated, elephants have truly…come to town.' - James Attlee When Elephants Come to Town is a visual celebration of man's timeless fascination with the world's largest land animal through the medium of photography. The joy and excitement elephants arouse when they make an appearance in our lives is brought to life through a combination of iconic photographs by, amongst others, Garry Winogrand and unattributed, archival material. Rather than a series of contemporary nature photographs, the book is a collection of exceptional images from around the world of elephants in captivity, dating from Victorian times to the height of circus culture in the mid-20th century, many of them taken by anonymous photographers. Elephants parade through the streets and perform tricks in circuses and shows, their riders ranging from royalty to children, from showgirls to soldiers. In times of war they assist with logistics, shifting heavy loads, ploughing fields and hauling vehicles; in peacetime they add a touch of glamour and exoticism to locations as varied as casinos, hospital courtyards and amusement parks, and are in turn transformed into elephant-shaped buildings, mechanised automatons or balloons. In the essay that accompanies the photographs, acclaimed British author James Attlee describes the broader context of that relationship through the ages. In doing so, he doesn't shy away from describing the abuse and poor living conditions captive elephants have had to endure; at the same time he evokes the depth of understanding that can exist between man and animal, often in the words of those who have experienced it first-hand. Intensely nostalgic, often poignant and always fascinating, these images capture the complexity of one of the planet's most enduring inter-species relationships.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Magnificent publication on the depiction of Paris by the French impressionists such as Monet, Cassatt, Renoir and DegasIn 1867, Claude Monet painted three iconic views of Paris from the balcony of the Louvre, thus firing the starting shot of Impressionism. This book explores these groundbreaking works…in detail, alongside a multitude of other Impressionist paintings and drawings.Experts from leading museums around the world show how Paul Cézanne, Gustave Caillebotte, Mary Cassatt and many others also depicted Paris in the midst of a radical transformation. Their artworks transport us to the birth of the French capital as a modern metropolis. They grant us entry to the theatres, parks and boulevards of Haussmann's Paris, where the bourgeoisie parade their new-found wealth. In a new world dominated by fashion and consumption, the graceful Parisienne emerges as the symbol of this vibrant world city. But behind the facade of light, beauty and romance, political unrest and revolution are in the air. This turbulent period is brought to life in this publication through original photographs, posters, letters and satirical prints.Published to accompany the exhibition New Paris: From Monet to Morisot at Kunstmuseum Den Haag from 15 February until 9 June 2025.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Erwin Olaf, renowned for his bold photography, evolved from avant-gardist to celebrated artist. This biography, based on his archives, honors his legacy and queer advocacy. It was a shock when Erwin Olaf passed away unexpectedly last year while recovering from a lung transplant. In the 1980s and 1990s,… he gained fame for his extravagant, sometimes sexually explicit photographs. Inspired by Robert Mapplethorpe, Hans van Manen, and Paul Blanca, he found his muses in Amsterdam's Club RoXY. Over time, he evolved from a rebellious avant-gardist into a celebrated artist, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors to his exhibitions, from The Hague to Shanghai. Throughout his career, he remained true to himself, creating his own universe while tirelessly advocating for the rights of the queer community. A progressive lung disease prompted Erwin Olaf to put his legacy in order and contribute to this book about his life and work. "I don't need to come out looking great. But I do want it to be accurate." Mischa Cohen followed Erwin Olaf for years, gaining access to his archives and his life. He spoke with lovers, friends, colleagues, gallerists, curators, muses, and family, and was present at photoshoots. Together, they selected images from his body of work and personal life.

A Red that Sings brings together three great colorists (James Ensor, Rik Wouters, and Jules Schmalzigaug) in a dazzling celebration of color. At t…he Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, which houses the largest collection of their works, vermilion reds, intense blues, and vivid yellows shine, revealing the vibrant visual language they created. Ensor composed "unbelievable chords of color," Wouters let bright red accents dictate the rhythm of his compositions, and Schmalzigaug reintroduced the 'singing red,' inspired by the Baroque emotion of Rubens. The book shows how these artists transcended the soft palette of Impressionism, turning color into a symphony of rhythm, emotion, and sound. Complemented by masterpieces from contemporaries like Adolphe Monticelli, A Red that Sings invites readers to experience these modern masters as they themselves painted the world: at a pitch that sings, vibrates, and resonates.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Award-winning German photographer Michael Wolf (1954-2019) grew up in Canada, Europe and the United States. In 1994, Wolf moved to Hong Kong, where he worked for eight years as a contract photographer for Stern Magazine. The core of Wolf's work consisted of capturing life in megacities. Many of his pro…jects depict the architecture and popular culture of metropolises, and Hong Kong Whispers is no exception.This book contains a stunning series of photos showing the vibrant global city of Hong Kong. Wolf's photographs are displayed in dialogue with the acerbic and ambiguous drawings of Arpaïs Du Bois (°1973). Based on intense engagement with Wolf's series of images, she reflects on unnoticed moments and events that characterise life in the metropolis. The visual exchange between photographs and drawings took shape during Du Bois' stay of several weeks in Hong Kong (2004), during which the two artists observed the city both together and individually.

It is a tactile ode to the sensuality of the city, filled to the brim with all manner of Venetian memorabilia: 19th century photographs, engravings, hand-…coloured magic lantern slides, vintage postcards, old luggage labels, keys from long-lost luxury hotels, golden ducats from the 18th century, Carnival ball invitations.

Serge Simonart's engaging commentary on Venetian history and culture introduces each subject with affection and insight."Every day, a nervous traveller visiting the City of Doges for the first time asks the best way to get to their hotel. 'The shortest or the most beautiful?', I once heard the concierge at Hotel Des Bains ask. The tourist who opted for the most beautiful route is still wandering around the city. This is a unique photobook in which to wander and lose oneself." - Serge Simonart.

Paperback. Condizione: New. "The paintings of Armen Eloyan convey an air of immediate familiarity. We recognize familiar figures: old acquaintances like Pinocchio, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Sponge Bob, Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, Krazy Kat, Pluto, and Goofy-an anthropomorphic community of mainly American animated cartoon and comic-s…trip characters. They are childhood figures, but what a peculiar childhood!" - Anne Bonnin The expressive paintings of the Armenian artist Armen Eloyan (b. 1966) are as cute and seductive as they are repulsive. According to Eloyan, a good painting is like a good joke: the pieces must fit together. Noted for his large-scale, irreverent paintings of anthropomorphic animals and figures, he depicts absurd narratives in his darkly comic work. Though Eloyan doesn't define himself as a writer, his paintings tell sardonic, sometimes erotic stories. Inspired partly by cartoons and street art, as well as the European masters, his works are heavily impastoed with colorful paints and thick black outlines, adroitly balancing dark humor with a searing existential vision of a dystopic world. With texts by art critic Anne Bonnin and Laurence Gateau (director, Frac des Pays de la Loire). In collaboration with the Tim Van Laere Gallery, Antwerp.

Paperback. Condizione: New. An intimate series by acclaimed Magnum photographer Bieke Depoorter that looks back on years of overnight stays with complete strangers. Each bed symbolises a fragile balance between trust, safety and the unknown. Between 2008 and 2016, Magnum photographer Bieke Depoorter traveled through Russia, the…United States, and Egypt, asking random people if she could spend the night in their homes. Day after day, different people prepared a bed for her - on air mattresses, couches, carpets, on the ground, in living rooms, or kitchens. A decade later, she happened upon the hundreds of images she had taken of these beds, which were never intended for publication, and wondered if she had been collecting evidence. This book is the compelling result.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Erwin Olaf, renowned for his bold photography, evolved from avant-gardist to celebrated artist. This biography, based on his archives, honors his legacy and queer advocacy. It was a shock when Erwin Olaf passed away unexpectedly last year while recovering from a lung transplant. In the 1980s and 1990s,… he gained fame for his extravagant, sometimes sexually explicit photographs. Inspired by Robert Mapplethorpe, Hans van Manen, and Paul Blanca, he found his muses in Amsterdam's Club RoXY. Over time, he evolved from a rebellious avant-gardist into a celebrated artist, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors to his exhibitions, from The Hague to Shanghai. Throughout his career, he remained true to himself, creating his own universe while tirelessly advocating for the rights of the queer community. A progressive lung disease prompted Erwin Olaf to put his legacy in order and contribute to this book about his life and work. "I don't need to come out looking great. But I do want it to be accurate." Mischa Cohen followed Erwin Olaf for years, gaining access to his archives and his life. He spoke with lovers, friends, colleagues, gallerists, curators, muses, and family, and was present at photoshoots. Together, they selected images from his body of work and personal life.

Hardback. Condizione: New. It is often said that you can't take the same walk twice in New York. Its history may be short compared to that of European cities, but it is also a history marked by lightning-fast change. This pictorial journey into the history of New York City starts from the small town that began as New Amsterdam i…n the 17th century, tracing the unbridled expansion of the 18th century and waves of mass immigration of the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors, both experienced NYC tour guides, explore iconic districts like Times Square, Harlem, Wall Street, Central Park, Ellis Island and the Bronx, bringing the past and people to life through engaging stories and images. An inspired selection of archival photos, prints, vintage maps, stereographs, and ephemera make this publication, with its elegant, silver-edged finish, a fascinating visual homage to the vibrant city that is New York today.
