Description:
University of Oklahoma Pres, 2020. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Fine. Firmly bound, clean unmarked pages; slight wear to jacket edges. At the time of his death in 2016, Harwood Hinton, a scholar with an encyclopedic knowledge of western history, had devoted fifty years to this monumental work, which has been completed and edited by the distinguished historian Jerry Thompson. This deeply researched and deftly written volume incorporates the latest scholarship to offer a clear and detailed account of John Ellis Wool's extraordinary life - his character, his life experiences, and his career, in wartime and during uneasy periods of relative peace. Hinton and Thompson provide a thorough account of all chapters in Wool's life, including three major wars, the Cherokee Removal, and battles with Native Americans on the West Coast. 552 pages.

Description:
National Gallery London, 2017. Softcover. Fine Condition. Clean unmarked pages, firmly bound, long semi-visible hairline scratch on front cover. Both Lelia Packer and Jennifer Sliwka eloquently present a topic not much touched upon: monochromatic painting accomplished during the past several centuries in the west. They cover a wide thematic range that is well organised by topic and not chronological, the illustrations provided are a feast for the eyes, particularly the works of Mantegna, Jan van Eyck, Ingres, Degas and Richter among others. The approach is scholarly and well documented, each topic is investigated in terms of the Zeitgeist that inspired its development along with frequent references to technique behind each piece, all is written in a succinct and comprehensible manner. Monochrome being rich and varied as a subject the book can be expanded to fill several publications. Coming to the subjective part of this critique, what I most appreciate in this book is the opening of… Read More

Description:
? University of California Press, 1992. Softcover. Fine Condition. Clean unmarked pages, very slight wear to covers. The sheer wealth and dizzying diversity of Indian sculpture are celebrated in this second volume of the catalogue raisonné of the Los Angeles County Museum's collection. Nearly two hundred sculptures produced during eleven centuries are described. Of these, one-quarter of the pieces are part of the Nasli and Alice Heeramaneck Collection, while the remaining three-quarters have been acquired since 1970. This splendid collection, while not representing all the major styles of sculpture that flourished on the Indian subcontinent from 700-1800, is certainly one of the most comprehensive among American and European museums. Included are stone, metal, ivory, and wood sculptures from fourteen states and territories of India and from Pakistan and Afghanistan. Organized by regions ?Central and Western, Eastern, and Southern India, and the Northwest?the catalogue contains… Read More

A very nice copy, clean, tightly bound, light age tanning to page edges, feint remains of erased inscription to rear endpaper, very light edgewear to jacket.

It also covers Pamuk's recent, high profile, court case.

A firmly bound copy with clean bright pages; unclipped jacket, 1mm nick at spine end of rear lower edge, very slight rubbing to corners, small shallow indent on front adjacent to spine. Saturated with sympathy and sense of place, the book charts a boy's journey into manhood and Turkey's into irreversible change. But it is above all a book of ideas. Pamuk's work promotes the fact that we should always interrogate the past but never deny or bury it. History - personal, imagined, actual - reminds us to remember, to think better...

Description:
Freedom Press, 2008. First Edition. Softcover. Fine Condition. A few slight cover markings, contents are clean bright and unmarked. Almost as new. From poverty and a Yorkshire orphanage, Herbert Read went on to become the most significant cultural critic to come out of England in the twentieth century. In this book sixteen of the world's leading writers on modernist cultural history look at Read's work again, focusing on his anarchist political beliefs, his work on art and literature, and his own creative writings. They place him in the context of twentieth century cultural life, and offer startling explanations for his neglect by later writers on modernism. The book is very well illustrated in full colour, with images of works by many of the artists Read championed. 238 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Art & Design; ISBN/EAN: 9781904491088.

Lark Books, 2000. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Fine. A nice clean bright copy, unmarked internally, slight rubbing to jacket corners. Sashiko is traditional blue-and-white Japanese quilting. Usually hand-stitched in white thread on indigo-dyed textiles, sashiko designs range from simple geometrics to elaborate florals. This book offers 20 projects which bypass the time-consuming process of stitching the motifs by hand. The iron-on, colour-coded patterns allow the modern sewer to machine-stitch the patterns in long, unbroken lines in a fraction of the time. The projects illustrate sashiko's decorative possibilities - on clothing (adornments on collars, pockets and handbags) and home decoration items (duvet covers, sheets and pillowcases) and the stitch directory provides over 100 colour-coded designs for many uses, some are centuries old, others are the author's creations. 144 pages.
