Pierre Loti (English translation by Linda Coverdale
Once Upon a Time Visions of Old Japan from the photos of Beato and Stillfried and the words of Pierre Loti
<p>From front DJ flap: "In 1573 the Tokugawa Shogunate came to power and banished foreigners from Japan. Totally isolated for the next 250 years Japan became for Westerners a lost civilization.</p><p>In 1853 Japan let down the barriers and among the early arrivals were two photographers and a novelist. "The simple direct photography overlaid with stylized exquisitely subtle hand coloring imparts an aura of enchantment to everything. Myth and reality become one. Pierre Loti adds a bittersweet poignancy to the photographs"</p><p>Book - Fine condition. Red cloth over boards with gold gilt leaf on front. Endpapers also have the leaf design. Pages are clean and tight. Only flaw noted was a tiny black spot on the spine.</p><p>Dust Jacket - Very Good- condition. Very light rubbing. Some bumping. Closed tear at top of back that has been taped on the inside. There is also a puncture hole on back near top spine and a few other bumps. Not price clipped.</p><p>Please use photos as part of the description.</p><p>112 pages.</p> Friendly Press hardcover

Pilipenko, Valery (Author of Introduction--in English)
Jarki; Catalogue covering works dated 1985-1988
1989. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. The format is approximately 8.25 inches by 11.25 inches. Unpaginated 36 pages plus covers. Illustrated cover. Some text in Russian German French and English. Illustrations some in color. Youri Jarkikh Jarki Latin: Zharkikh; born July 16 1938 is a French-Russian painter and visual artist of the "Russian vanguard". Jarkikh was born in Tikhoretsk Krasnodar Krai Soviet Union. From 1961 to 1967 he studied at the Leningrad Vera Mukhina Higher School of Art and Design. Jarkikh was co-organizer of the movement for independent art in the Soviet Union. He was significant in the cultural history of Leningrad later Saint Petersburg as an organizer of the Independent Society for Experimental Exhibitions. In 1974 Jarkikh organized with O. Rabin E. Ruchin and A. Gleser non-conformist artists the Bulldozer Exhibition in Moscow. In 1974 and 1975 Jarkikh was one of the initiators of the Gazanevsky exhibition of unofficial art in Leningrad. Jarkikh was pursued by the KGB because of his activities. His health was affected through the practice with Iprite a poison. In 1978 he emigrated to France where he received political asylum. In 1984 Jarkikh founded the artists' association Eidos. He held exhibitions at the Palais des congrès de Paris from 1987 to 1988. In 1990 he was elected "Premier Peintre de Paris" First Artist of Paris. After the "Poets Alphabet" exhibition in Saint Petersburg in 2008 he again accepted Russian nationality which was offered to him by the Russian government. Jarkikh's creativity developed under the influence of the Russian vanguard and German Expressionism. Nearly half of his 77 years Jarki has lived in exile. His works are in the collections of the best museums in the world including the Centre Pompidou and the number of his exhibitions in the West exceeds one hundred. In the USSR it was not even a small part of such exhibition opportunities. Yuri Zharkikh along with Alexander Refiev and Eugene Rohini were among the originators of "gazanevsky culture" and been voices of dissent in the historical period. Jarki and Rukhin were Zamperini "Shuttle diplomacy" between St. Petersburg and Moscow underground vivid organizers and "a pain" for the authorities. Both were among the instigators and participants of the Bulldozer exhibition in 1974. Rukhin died in the prime of a career in a fire at his workshop in 1976. Aref died in Paris in 1978 just a year after emigrating. Jarkie emigrated to the West after- time settled in France where he then lived and worked. The brightest pages in the biography of Jarki are linked to the USSR and its practice of persecution of independent artists. In Germany then in France Yuri Zharkikh was a rather busy schedule of exhibitions — personal and group interest in unofficial Russian artists in the West in 1970s was particularly high. In 1984 the artist organized in France a group of "Eidos". His work in Moscow was seen occasionally on the gallery level. In particular in 2009 exhibition of his work was organized by the Gallery "vellum". Recently his work can be seen in St. Petersburg "New Museum" Aslan chehova and "Erarta". His work quite independently and recognizable. Yes his stories are often anthropomorphic plexus heaps of creatures with transparent skin. But it is rather a stylistic device to transmit its own philosophical ideas. paperback

PINE John
Battaglia navale
Acquaforte stampata in verde / blu, tratta da The tapestry hangings of the House of Lords: representing the several engagements between the English and Spanish fleets, in the ever memorable year MDLXXXVIII, with the portraits of the Lord High-Admiral, and the other noble commanders, taken from the life. To which are added, from a book entitled, Expeditionis Hispanorum in Angliam Vera Descriptio, A.D. 1588, done, as is supposed, for the said tapestry to be work'd after, ten charts of the sea-coasts of England, and a general one of England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Holland, &c. shewing the places of action between the two fleets; ornaments with medals struck upon the occasion, and other suitable devices. Also an historical account of each day's action, collected from the most authentic manuscripts and writers. By John Pine, engraver. London, MDCCXXXIX. Sold by J. Pine in Old Bond Street near Picadilly. Poco dopo la sconfitta dell'armata spagnola del 1588, Lord Howard of Effingham, comandante della flotta britannica, commissionò a Robert Adams la produzione di una serie di disegni che rappresentavano le varie fasi dell'azione; poi commissionò H.C. Vroom la realizzazione di una serie di disegni per arazzi, basati sul lavoro di Adams. Le tele furono tessute da Francis Spiring di Haarlem. Alcuni anni dopo, i disegni furono venduti a Giacomo I e, successivamente, arredarono le pareti della Camera dei Lord. Tutti gli arazzi, tranne uno rubato precedentemente, furono bruciati insieme a gran parte del Palazzo di Westminster nel 1834. La grande opera di Pine che raffigura questa famosa battaglia navale è, ora, di grande importanza storica. A parte il notevole dettaglio dell'incisione e la ricchezza dell'invenzione nei vari cartigli, l'uso contenuto dell'inchiostro colorato per stampare la superficie della lastra produce un effetto sorprendentemente attraente e rappresenta un importante esempio primordiale della stampa a colori per le illustrazioni. Bellissimo esemplare, stampato su carta vergata coeva, con pieni margini, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Etching printed in green/blue, taken from The tapestry hangings of the House of Lords: representing the several engagements between the English and Spanish fleets, in the ever memorable year MDLXXXVIII, with the portraits of the Lord High-Admiral, and the other noble commanders, taken from the life. To which are added, from a book entitled, Expeditionis Hispanorum in Angliam Vera Descriptio, A.D. 1588, done, as is supposed, for the said tapestry to be work'd after, ten charts of the sea-coasts of England, and a general one of England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Holland, &c. shewing the places of action between the two fleets; ornaments with medals struck upon the occasion, and other suitable devices. Also an historical account of each day's action, collected from the most authentic manuscripts and writers. By John Pine, engraver. London, MDCCXXXIX. Sold by J. Pine in Old Bond Street near Picadilly. Shortly after the defeat of the Spanish “Armada” in 1588, Lord Howard of Effingham, commander of the British Fleet, commissioned Robert Adams to produce a series of charts representing the various phases of the action and then H.C. Vroom to produce a series of designs for tapestries, based on the work of Adams. They were woven by Francis Spiring of Haarlem. Some years later, they were sold to James I and eventually came to furnish the walls of the House of Lords. All the tapestries, except one stolen at an earlier date and now lost, were burned in the fire that destroyed most of the Palace of Westminster in 1834. Pine's great work depicting this famous naval battle is therefore now of great historical importance. Apart from the remarkable detail of the engraving and the wealth of invention in the various cartouches, the restrained use of coloured ink to print the plate surface produces a strikingly attractive effect, and represents a very early example of the colour-printing of illustrations.
