‎"Es waren zwei schöne Tage für mich in München. Besonders der erste Morgen in der alten Pinakothek", schrieb Max Beckmann 1912 an seinen Verleger Reinhard Piper. Viele Male war er vor seiner Emigration 1937 in der Alten Pinakothek gewesen. Auch in anderen Städten, in denen er sich im Lauf seines Lebens aufhielt, war es für ihn die Regel, Museen und Ausstellungen zu besuchen. So notierte er 1948 in New York: "Am Morgen allein im Metropolitan Museum. Schöne Goya's- Rembrandt(..), Brueghel und ein schöner Bosch. Zerschmettert verließ ich die Riesenräume (..)." Die Alten Meister waren es, für die sich Max Beckmann besonders interessierte. Ihre Bilder suchte er immer wieder in den Museen auf, um sie intensiv zu studieren. Vor allem die italienischen, flämischen, altdeutschen und niederländischen Maler. Er glaubte, sie "alle bis in's letzte kennen und können gelernt haben zu müssen, um dann ganz (er) selbst seien zu können". Er maß seine eigenen Arbeiten an ihnen und manche dienten ihm auch als direkte Anregung für seine Bilder. So weisen einige der Selbstbildnisse Beckmanns Parallelen zu den Selbstbildnissen von Remnbrandt auf, der blinde Bettler von Francesco Traini wird bei Max Beckmann zum Großstadtverbrecher, das dichte Kampfgetümmel nackter Leiber in Beckmanns Bild "Die Schlacht" findet sich wieder in Michelangelos Relief "Kentauerschlacht". Einige Werke vereinen auch Einflüsse verschiedener Künstler. Der vorliegende Band stellt zahlreichen Bildern von Rembrandt, Matthias Grünewald, Paul Rubens und Pieter Brueghel, um nur einige zu nennen, Bilder Max Beckmanns gegenüber, die einen direkten Einfluß erkennen lassen. Der erläuternde Text von Christian Lenz, der Leiter des Max Beckmann Archivs ist, zeigt Bezüge auf zwischen den einzelnen Werken und bietet einen guten Überblick über alle Schaffensperioden Max Beckmanns. Alle Liebhaber seiner Kunst lernen in diesem Band einige der "ganz netten Reihe von Freunden kennen", die Max Beckmann als künstlerische Vorbilder ein Leben lang begleiteten. --Britta Müller Der Verlag über das Buch In diesem Buch wird erstmals das Verhältnis Beckmanns zu den Alten Meistern wie Rembrandt, Grünewald, Brueghel aber auch Michelangelo oder Tintoretto untersucht. Zahlreiche Gemälde, Zeichnungen und Druckgraphiken sowie mündliche und schriftliche Äußerungen des Künstlers legen hiervon Zeugnis ab. Beckmanns singuläre Bedeutung für die Kunst des 20. Jh. wird unter neuen Aspekten aufgezeigt.

"Brunetti must contend with ingenious corruption bureaucratic intransi-gence and the stifling heat of a Venetian summer. With his hometown beset by hordes of tourists and baking under a glaring sun Brunetti’s greatest wish is to go to the mountains with his family where he can sleep under a down comforter and catch up on his reading. But before he can go on vacation a folder with court records has landed on his desk brought by an old friend. It appears that cases at the local court-hardly known as a model of efficiency-are being delayed to the benefit of one of the parties a creative new trick for corrupting the system. And just when it looks like Brunetti will be able to get away a shocking violent crime forces him to stay in Venice." -- Publisher. First Printing. Pictorial Wrappers. Very Good-Near Fine/No Jacket.

Endpaper maps of Venice. "In Donna Leon's Commissario Guido Brunetti series the Venetian inspector has been called on to investigate many things from shocking to petty crimes. But in The Waters of Eternal Youth the 25th novel in this celebrated series Brunetti finds himself drawn into a case that may not be a case at all. Fifteen years ago a teenage girl fell into a canal late at night. Unable to swim she went under and started to drown surviving only thanks to a nearby man an alcoholic who heard her splashes and pulled her out though not before she suffered irreparable brain damage that left her in a state of permanent childhood unable to learn or mature. The drunk man claimed he saw her thrown into the canal by another man but the following day he couldn't remember a thing. Now at a fundraising dinner for a Venetian charity a wealthy and aristocratic patroness - the girl's grandmother - asks Brunetti if he will investigate. Brunetti's not sure what to do. If a crime was committed it would surely have passed the statute of limitations. But out of a mixture of curiosity pity and a willingness to fulfill the wishes of a guilt-wracked older woman who happens to be his mother-in-law's best friend he agrees. Brunetti soon finds himself unable to let the case rest if indeed there is a case. Awash in the rhythms and concerns of contemporary Venetian life from historical preservation to housing to new waves of African migrants and the haunting story of a woman trapped in a damaged perpetual childhood The Waters of Eternal Youth is another wonderful addition to this series" -- Dust jacket.

‎UNIFORM JUSTICE: A Commissario Brunetti title.‎

‎New York NY U.S.A.: Grove/Atlantic Incorporated 2003. 1st American edition with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. Detective Commissario Guido Brunetti has been called to investigate a parent’s worst nightmare. A young cadet has been found hanged a presumed suicide in Venice’s elite military academy. Brunetti’s sorrow for the boy so close in age to his own son is rivaled only by his contempt for a community that is more concerned with protecting the reputation of the school and its privileged students than understanding this tragedy. The young man is the son of a doctor and former politician -- a man of impeccable integrity all too rare in politics. Dr. Moro is clearly devastated; but while both he and his apparently estranged wife seem convinced that the boy’s death could not have been suicide neither appears eager to talk to the police or involve Brunetti in any investigation of the circumstances in which he died. As Brunetti pursues his inquiry he is faced with a wall of silence. Is the military protecting its own And what of the other witnesses Is this the natural reluctance of Italians to involve themselves with the authorities or is Brunetti facing a conspiracy far greater than this one death.
