ref. 13773No place no publisher no date but after 2001. . Large oblong folio 25.5x55.5cm. 104 unnumbered pages incl. 40 full-page colour reproductions in real size of paintings and drawings. Hardbound blind dark-blue cloth-lined boards. Few tiny marks of handling to covers contents fine. - "Von diesem Buch wurden 120 Exemplare gedruckt die alle numeriert sind ." but this copy has no number. - Karl Stengel was born in 1925 in Hungary. He studied art in Budapest where he trained in painting and drawing and also received an introduction to the principles of set design and architecture the influence of which can be seen in his current artistic style. After 1956 he studied for a period at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and subsequently taught at the Pädogogische Hochschule at Munich University. He also lived in Spain where he was able to dedicate himself totally to painting before then moving to Italy. - Recently Stengel created a series of drawings for the Italian Institute of Culture in Germany that were dedicated to Boccaccio's Decameron and to Frammenti by Giuseppe Ungaretti and of late the artist has also conceived a series of pastel drawings that are homage to Antonio Tabucchi's novel Tristano muore. Stengel has exhibited his works worldwide in solo and collective shows; his personal exhibitions have been hosted throughout Italy most recently in the Salone Donatello in the Basilica of San Lorenzo Florence and then at the George Toparcenau Cultural Centre in Curtea de Arges Romania. - "More than anything Stengel's works should be interpreted as attempted answers to the question of whether painting today can encompass human experience and be able to address life in all its absurdity complexity and tragedy." James Wyckoff New York Art Magazine - ed. March 2010 - "Karl Stengel is a man who has lived through the entire twentieth century with 'avant-garde' pride and this inflames his paintings as if he were still a twenty-year old. The surreal and metaphysical figures are made up of dreams and irony and they populate his drawings as statues sometimes as still as silhouettes or shadows sometimes gesticulating in their anatomical deformations. In his latest production the surreal smaller size representations on paper have a markedly European ancestry in particular German Expressionism and the coagulating shades of red blue and green seemingly come out of the dynamism of expressionist brushwork to create a symbolic bridge between abstraction and figuration that are inextricably fused." Giampaolo Trotta 2011 catalog for the solo show held at the Basilica of San Lorenzo Florence Italy. [No place, no publisher, no date, but after 2001.] hardcover

1781ref. ABC_50510Pressburg =Bratislava 1781. Ca. 46 x 32 cm. With an engraving of Pressburg Bratislava and an engraved title. A rare and highly evocative example of an 18th-century Preis-courant or commodity price current published in Pressburg modern-day Bratislava capital of Slovakia. Such documents produced at regular intervals often weekly served as indispensable instruments of commerce providing merchants and their correspondents with up-to-date market prices for a wide range of goods.The present work dated 2 April 1781 is a particularly attractive sheet. It combines a finely engraved panoramic view of the city with a densely organised tabular listing of commodities arranged in four columns on both sides. Prices are carefully entered by hand in ink in florins fl. and kreuzer kr. reflecting the customary monetary system of the Habsburg lands. The mixture of printed framework and manuscript additions is characteristic of privately published price currents which were distributed rapidly and updated locally to reflect current market conditions.The range of goods listed points to the thriving trade in raw materials medicinal substances and colonial produce. As was common practice in the 18th century many items are recorded using Latin nomenclature underscoring the documents relevance to apothecaries wholesalers and international merchants alike. Such lists offer a vivid cross-section of early modern trade from local agricultural products to exotic imports circulating along established commercial routes.At the time of publication Pressburg occupied a position of considerable importance within the Habsburg Monarchy. Situated on the Danube it functioned as a major trading hub linking Vienna Buda and the wider regions of Central Europe. Until 1783 it also served as the capital of the Kingdom of Hungary and as a major administrative and cultural centre where German predominated as the language of official and commercial communication. Its mercantile community comprising traders professionals and artisans played a key role in sustaining long-distance trade networks.The work has been folded the folds are slightly torn along the edges.
