‎Of Men and Orchids‎

‎Allmendingen Switzerland: Published by the author 2015. NEW. Very well illustrated quarto pp 303 black cloth a very good copy in dustwrapper. LIMITED EDITION OF 250 COPIES ONLY. A heavy book - extra postage will probably be necessary. "This is neither a book on how humans grow orchids nor a treatise of how they classsify plants but an extraordinary look at the bond that unites men - botanists gardeners plant hunters explorers - to the names of orchids and the histories behind their discovery and scientific apprehension. The work is a great step into the realm of history and orchids are the perfect excuse to expose the efforts the courage and bravery the ambition and jealousies and the indomitable will of those men in the flesh who have made it possible to discover and name the amazing diversity of plants. Each of the 41 chapters that compose the volume tell the story of an orchid or a few orchids and a man beginning with Acineta beyrodtiana and Otto Beyrodt going through complete biographical sketches of the protagonists and discussing the sometimes complex taxonomy of the concerned orchid species. You will find very acknowledged names in plant history like the Loddiges and Wendland dynasties or botanists of the eminence of Eduard Friedrich Poeppig and Achille Richard or famous explorers like Kegel and Jenman but you will be also surprised at finding several less known names who compose the extraordinary story of orchidology. Vriese Comparetti Haller Raddi Loefgren Lauche and Brade Moquette and Hasskarl are just a few of the many characters that are presented in the book together with the orchids that immortalize their names" - Franco Pupulin.

‎Witchcraft. : The Library of Esoterica Part Three‎

‎, Taschen Gmbh 2022, 2022 Hardcover, 520 pages, English, 250 x 180 x 46 mm, photographs / illustrations in colour, with dustjacket, NEW !!. ISBN 9783836585606.‎

‎Initiating readers in the fascinating and complex history of witchcraft, from the goddess mythologies of ancient cultures to the contemporary embrace of the craft by modern artists and activists, this expansive tome conjures up a breathtaking overview of an age-old tradition. Rooted in legend, folklore, and myth, the archetype of the witch has evolved from the tales of Odysseus and Circe, the Celtic seductress Cerridwen, and the myth of Hecate, fierce ruler of the moonlit night. In Witchcraft we survey her many incarnations since, as she shape-shifts through the centuries, alternately transforming into mother, nymph, and crone-seductress and destroyer. Edited by Jessica Hundley, and co-edited by author, scholar, and practitioner Pam Grossman, this enthralling visual chronicle is the first of its kind, a deep dive into the complex symbologies behind witchcraft traditions, as explored through the history of art itself. The witch has played muse to great artists throughout time, from the dark seductions of Francisco Jose de Goya and Albrecht Durer to the elegant paean to the magickal feminine as re-imagined by the Surrealist circle of Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, and Leonor Fini. The witch has spellbound through folktales and dramatic literature as well, from the poison apples of The Brothers Grimm, to the Weird Sisters gathered at their black cauldron in Shakespeare's Macbeth, to L. Frank Baum's iconic Wicked Witch of the West, cackling over the fate of Dorothy. Throughout this entrancing visual voyage, we'll also bear witness to the witch as she endures persecution and evolves into empowerment, a contemporary symbol of bold defiance and potent nonconformity. Featuring enlightening essays by modern practitioners like Kristen J. Sollee and Judika Illes, as well interviews with authors and scholars such as Madeline Miller and Juliet Diaz, Witchcraft includes a vast range of cultural traditions that embrace magick as spiritual exploration and creative catharsis. About the series The Library of Esoterica explores how centuries of artists have given form to mysticism, translating the arcane and the obscure into enduring, visionary works of art. Each subject is showcased through both modern and archival imagery culled from private collectors, libraries, and museums around the globe. The result forms an inclusive visual history, a study of our primal pull to dream and nightmare, and the creative ways we strive to connect to the divine.‎

‎THE RIDDLES OF UKIYO-E : Women and Men in Japanese Prints 1705-1865‎

‎, Ludion, 2023 Hardcover, 256 pages, ENG, 295 x 240 mm, NEW, illustrated in colour. ISBN 9789493039902.‎

‎Women and men - strong, proud, tragic or beautiful - from the heyday (1765-1865) of Japanese printmaking are this book's subject. It seeks to dig below the surface of the prints to describe the often subtle iconography employed in these masterful creations by the most famous artists of their time. It begins with Suzuki Harunobu's subdued and introverted scenes of women seated on verandas. The book then moves on to the spectacular 'big face' (okubi-e) portraits of prostitutes and Kabuki actors by artists like Kitagawa Utamaro, Toshusai Sharaku and Utagawa Kunimasa. Frail 'streetwalkers', forced by circumstance into the lowest ranks of prostitution, are transformed into elegant beauties, obscuring their tragic existence. The spectacle of heroes from Japan's rich mythological and pseudo-historical past crowd the printed sheet. Stern-faced actors drawn by the confident hands of Utagawa Toyokuni and his pupil Kunisada demonstrate the economy of line and powerful expression of the woodblock medium. Each print is explored in the finest detail in order to explain the riddles of Ukiyo-e -the intriguing and captivating mode of visual expression that would have such a profound influence on Western art.‎
