Collection of Original Artwork for Furniture and Interior Design -- Muebles Rodriguez
Alfafar Valencia c. 1930s. Near Fine. Album containing unmounted watercolor and gouache pencil and color printed studies of individual pieces of furniture and interior design ensembles probably created as maquettes for advertising purposes. Includes 17 in pencil ranging in size from 5.5-by-9 inches to 11-by-17 inches; and 32 in color most about 11-by-15 inches with 3 large pieces 18-by-24 inches folded once down the middle. Total of 48 pieces some a little rubbed or chipped along the edges; a few of the pencil sketches foxed; but the whole is overall nice and bright suitable for display. Remarkably detailed the polished wood shines! and accomplished artwork shows lavish nigh on palatial bedrooms and dining rooms -- with ornate beds bookcases chairs tables bureaus dressers and more prominently on display. 13 images in pencil or in color focus on specific pieces of furniture sometimes many per page taking them out of their context rooms and allowing a detailed look at the piece itself. The designs seem primarily focused on classical and neoclassical styles but Muebles Rodriguez is known for carrying modern colonial Provencal and avant garde pieces as well -- some of that influence is apparent here. A lovely and rich presentation. <br/><br/> unknown

In 1938 after the German invasion of Austria the child prodigy was expelled because he was a Jew. A few weeks later his parents wisely sent him to Palestine where he survived for the next nine years by his musical wits taking odd jobs accompanying singers transcribing music giving piano lessons and learning how to play the harp simply because the Jerusalem Symphony lacked a harpist. During the war Mr. Starer served in the British army and in 1948 he emigrated to the United States where he became a teacher at Juilliard and later at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Today he is a well-known composer whose work has been performed and recorded by symphony orchestras throughout the world. He has also written for the Broadway musical theater television and films and has composed works for several dance companies. Continuo is divided into twelve chapters each focusing on a particular period of the author's life or on a performer or musician with whom he has worked--among others Martha Graham William Steinberg Herbert Ross and Itzhak Perlman. Astonishingly Mr. Starer turns out to be as elegant a writer as he is a composer: clear spare and vivid in his portrayal of characters and description of events. As a result this memoir is a joy to read whether the subject is music personalities triumphs and failures audiences or memories of childhood" ; VG/VG. New York : Random House, 1987 Hardcover
