Book Synopsis Images of a Lost World by : Halina Nelken
Download or read book Images of a Lost World written by Halina Nelken and published by I.B. Tauris. This book was released on 1991 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Images of a Lost World is a moving and important book. It shows how, from 1770 to 1945, major Polish artists depicted Jews as familiar figures integrated into the Polish landscape. By about 1650, more than half of world Jewry lived within the boundaries of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and as late as 1939 Jews still made up nearly 10 per cent of the reborn Polish state. Their world was destroyed for ever by the Nazi mass murder of Polish Jews. Here that world is brought vividly to life through over 250 works of art, many of them reproduced in colour. Halina Nelken, a well-known art historican, places these pictures in their artistic, social and political context. Images of a Lost World is a striking tribute to a complex civilization, the civilization of Polish Jewry. -- from back cover.

Book Synopsis Samuel Hirszenberg, 1865–1908 by : Richard I. Cohen
Download or read book Samuel Hirszenberg, 1865–1908 written by Richard I. Cohen and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-07 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Hirszenberg is an artist who deserves to be more widely known: his work intertwined modernism and Jewish themes, and he influenced later artists of Jewish origin. Born into a traditional Jewish family in Łódź in 1865, Hirszenberg gradually became attached to Polish culture and language as he pursued his artistic calling. Like Maurycy Gottlieb before him, he studied at the School of Art in Kraków, which was then headed by the master of Polish painting, Jan Matejko. His early interests were to persist with varying degrees of intensity throughout his life: his Polish surroundings, traditional east European Jews, historical themes, the Orient, and the nature of relationships between men and women. He also had a lifelong commitment to landscape painting and portraiture. Hirszenberg’s personal circumstances, economic considerations, and historical upheavals took him to different countries, strongly influencing his artistic output. He moved to Jerusalem in 1907 and there, as a secular and acculturated Jew who had adopted the world of humanism and universalism, he strove also to express more personal aspirations and concerns. This fully illustrated study presents an intimate and detailed picture of the artist’s development.
