Download or read book Joaquín Sorolla Landscapes written by Cristina Berna and published by BOD GmbH DE. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sorolla was deeply interested in the history and future of Spain. His landscapes can be seen as direct commentary to the subject matter in the landscape paintings. We travel with Sorolla generally from North to South Joaquin Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863-died in Cercedilla 1923) is one of the most successful Spanish painters ever. He was a genius in capturing the essence of the scene he was painting. He lived while photography was being invented and popularized. Some of his breathtaking landscapes show how he was familiar with and employed similar techniques as the photograph. His landscapes are a great introduction to Spanish history. In the course of preparing for his grand masterpiece The Vision of Spain, which hangs in the Hispanic Society of America, Sorolla visited many places of Spain. Here he painted types of people and local dress which made up his vision of Spain, diverse and colorful yet united. Joaquin Sorolla painted many landscapes. Some of the landscapes are recordings like photographs. Others are exercises and development of his talent and technique. It is possible to follow his development as a master of impressionist painting by comparing landscapes by the year of completion. Sorolla only became better with age and maturity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Malaga Christmas Market is a completely different experience from the Christmas Markets in the German speaking World. This is not only due to the lovely weather but also to significant cultural differences. Malaga is one of the oldest cities not only in Spain but in the World, inhabited for almost 3000 years. The Christmas Market in Malaga is like nothing that is currently seen in Central Europe You also do not find any stalls with warm mulled wine Glühwein as is a must in a Northern Christmas Market. If you want something to drink, you would go to a bar or a restaurant, with seating and preferably with some shade. There is absolutely no need for warm mittens, woolen knitted hats or warm sheepskin

Download or read book Christmas Market Munich written by Cristina Berna and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest and oldest Christmas market in Mnich was first documented as a Nikolaimarkt Nikolausmarkt in 1310, making it one of the oldest Christmas markets in the German-speaking world. It started as the Welcoming of Christ the Child or Christ Kind in German at the beginning of the four Sundays of Advent that ends with Christmas Day, which is the 25 December. The Christmas market is a fair connected with the seasonal period and infused with our religion, which very much organized everybodys lives back then. In Medieval times, rights to hold fairs were often granted by the feudal lords to convents and bishoprics both as income generation for the religious work and as a city development tool. Many towns trace their prosperity to the market rights. The close association between the local cathedral and the Christmas market is still evident although the taxes now go elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Police cars are usually very visible in our society, advertising the important role of police and loved by children. The role of the police is to enforce the law, to ensure the safety, health, and possessions of citizens, and to prevent crime and civil disorder. Law enforcement is as old as human society and the giving of laws itself. In ancient China, Babylon and Egypt there were special law enforcement bodies. Law enforcement is a part of the political process. Not all laws are fair, not all politicians are honest and the job can be risky. We honor all good police on this 4th of July 2023 and hope you will enjoy our selection of photos.

Download or read book Keisai Eisen A Tōkaidō Board Game of Courtesans written by Cristina Berna and published by Missy´s Clan. This book was released on with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction Keisai Eisen (1790 -1848) is especially known for his bijin-ga, pretty women, and landscapes. He is well known for his participation in the series 69 stations of the Nakasendō together with Hiroshige. The series A Tōkaidō Board Game of Courtesans, Fifty-three Pairings in the Yoshiwara use the Tōkaidō with landscape inserts as an excuse for showing courtesans and geisha, bijin-ga, to skirt the censorship. It was published 1821-1823. His bijin-ga are considered to be masterpieces of the "decadent" Bunsei Era (1818–1830). Most of them have impressive hairdo with many ornamental hairpins and combs. Their dress is extravagant with beautiful patterns and sublime embroideries. Their faces are elongated squares with long noses and small pouted painted mouths. Courtesans were desirable for their rich and splendid attire, not so much for their beauty and their names were actually like trademarks for a series of girls performing the name role with the brothel in question.

Download or read book Christmas Nativity Innsbruck written by Cristina Berna and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This little book shows you some of the nativity scenes we have seen and some of the figurines and accessories that you can find in the various Christmas markets and shops in Innsbruck, Austria. Nativity is today a Catholic tradition, separated in many countries from official society as Christianity does no longer have the same central function, although the European values and norms are deeply steeped in Christianity. In Northern European countries the birth of Jesus is no longer the central theme of the Christmas displays. We show you also some alternative displays, usually with animals, that are used instead to make the children, and adults, happy. Mostly they are in shopping windows and displace for a while the display of some of the commercial goods that is the daily function of the windows.
