Complete in two hardcover volumes. xv 1 684 xxxii 2; xxi 1 555 1 lxiii 5 pp. 8vo. These books established Julia Child as an important culinary author and led to a career owing to which she is known as one of the most influential chefs in American history. The first originally released in 1961 features a broad survey of techniques and recipes while the second volume released 9 years later more completely covers certain topics discussed in the first book. "Volume One contains 524 recipes for the savory delights of French cuisine from historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas. Volume Two presents a brilliant selection of 257 additional recipes that not only add to the home cook's repertoire but above all bring them to a new level of mastery. Taken together these two books are a stunning feat of cookbook literature and Julia Child's most beloved works. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover books

Bound in burnt orange cloth with gilt titles and illustration pasted center front. 179 p. : chiefly ill. chiefly col. ; 31 cm. Italian text. With Il tempo sospeso Part II Galleria Mattia De Luca sought to continue the exhibition journey begun with the show "Giorgio Morandi: Il tempo sospeso" Rome 2022 enriching it with a significant second chapter—one that is distinctly American. Set within a historic New York residence—a nineteenth-century townhouse on the Upper East Side adjacent to Central Park—gallerist Mattia De Luca and Marilena Pasquali chose to present the work of the great Bolognese master. In doing so they simultaneously evoked the domestic intimacy of his working environment and the fruitful ties he forged with the United States—connections the artist cultivated during his lifetime beginning in the 1930s and which have remained unbroken ever since. New York was in fact the first U.S. city to dedicate a solo exhibition to him held at the Delius Gallery in 1955. The result of a renewed collaboration with the Centro Studi Giorgio Morandi in Bologna this project aimed to trace the artist’s creative trajectory through a selection of more than sixty works—including etchings watercolors drawings and oil paintings—created between 1914 and 1964. Serving as exquisite variations on the themes of still life and landscape—"orchestrated" by the painter from Grizzana through a masterful command of color and volume—these works offered a significant opportunity for critical comparison and historical reflection.
