Описание: Scholars and enthusiasts alike will revel in this ambitious two-volume catalogue raisonne of Thomas Gainsborough's portraits and copies of Old Master works. The catalogue contains approximately 1,100 paintings, including nearly 200 works newly attributed to the British master, as well as updated information about his subjects and specially commissioned photography. Each portrait entry includes the biography of the sitter-including several newly identified-the painting's provenance, and exhibitions in which each work was shown.
Gainsborough's copies after Old Masters, painted in admiration and used to assimilate their style of painting into his own work, are documented here as well. Research includes in-depth analysis of newspaper archives and other printed material to establish the date of a painting's production, chart the development of the artist's style, and assess the impression the work made within the context of its time.

Описание: Whether it's being eaten, cooked, grown, prepared, or cultivated, food is today's hottest topic. Its many facets spur our interest, arouse our passion, and provide us with pure pleasure. Regional cuisines are becoming more dynamic --even well beyond the areas where they originated. Vacations make impressions on our taste buds that are further developed at home. In addition to local delicacies, specialty markets are offering more and more international treats. Cooking classes serve as creative meeting points, market halls are becoming weekend travel destinations, and supper clubs are experiencing a growing popularity. Culinary magazines, special interest publications, and blogs are further fueling the current enthusiasm for food. Against this background, The Delicious takes readers on a mouth-watering visual journey to discover what's cooking around the world. It compiles developments in today's new food culture, such as health conscious cafeterias, contemporary fast food, and restaurants with cutting-edge ideas, as well as innovative catering and culinary events both public and private. From experimental new dishes to modern interpretations of familiar classics, the featured examples will give readers new perspectives and inspire them to broaden their food horizons. Are they still making traditional pizza and pasta in Italy? What's happening in Balkan cuisine? How should you prepare a roast these days? What about new energy smoothies or super-food products that are based on the traditions of tribes who lived in harmony with nature? The answers to all of these questions and more are explored in The Delicious. Other topics include inspirations from Korea and Chile, a Slow Food week in Tel Aviv, a gourmet shuttle through Helsinki, eating lotus blossoms and scorpions in China, trying freshly smoked fish, cooking turnips over a camp fire on the field where they were harvested, and learning how to preserve stone fruits just like our grandparents once did. The book introduces pioneers, traditionalists, and entrepreneurs who are enriching the culinary world with their concepts. It also focuses on local cultivation and environmentally responsible distribution to support sustainability and ensure the quality of meat and vegetables. In The Delicious, everything is possible, everything is delectable, and everything promises full enjoyment.

Описание: This book translates Master Wang’s original practice instructions and discourses given during training seminars. His system of internal alchemy goes back to two ancient Daoist texts that outline the concoction of a golden elixir through the dual cultivation of inner nature and life-destiny. This book follows the classics and presents all different kinds of techniques—including walking, pacing, sleeping, circulating the five phases, absorbing tree energy, and capturing planetary essences—in a systematic format and with a great amount of instructional detail. It contains a wealth of information invaluable to anyone interested in genuine Daoist cultivation and elucidates numerous rather obscure concepts to contextualize each practice.
Автор: by (photographer) Richard Corman Название: Richard Corman: Madonna NYC 83 Limited Edition (50 copies) ISBN: 8862083467 ISBN-13(EAN): 9788862083461 Издательство: Abrams Рейтинг: Цена: 74250.00 р. Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии.
Описание: "Madonna NYC 83" celebrates a moment in early 1980s New York that has been much reappraised in recent years for its fecund interactions between the worlds of fashion, art and music. This economically fragile period gave rise to a vital restlessness in the city, spawning adventurous personal styles and music that merged rap, funk, punk and pop. Madonna represented this sensibility like no-one else. As this book makes amply clear, from the start she was determined to define a look for herself, and to carve out a space in the public imagination. Richard Corman met Madonna by chance in 1983 and created a collection of images that constitute a multifaceted portrait of the young singer. This publication is a limited edition of 50 copies, and includes an original signed and numbered print of the image "Cinderella," that comes in a separate envelope within the slipcase.
