"Longos in lateinischer Form: Longus war ein griechischer Schriftsteller der Antike. Er ist der Autor des berühmten Hirten- und Liebesromans 'Daphnis und Chloe' und der Zweiten Sophistik zuzuordnen. . Longos vermischt in seinem Roman Elemente des antiken Liebes- und Abenteuerromans mit Motiven der Bukolik und entwickelt dabei eine eigene Art der Poesie in Prosa. Dabei legt der Autor seinem Erzähler einen Stil in den Mund der in seiner Schlichtheit den Protagonisten den einfachen Hirten entspricht. Diesen verfeinert er aber durch virtuose Rhythmisierung und zahlreiche Endreime. Daphnis und Chloe werden als Säuglinge von ihren reichen Eltern ausgesetzt und von Hirten aufgefunden. Zu Beginn der Handlung ist er 15 Jahre alt sie 13. Beide wachsen gemeinsam in gegenseitiger und unverdächtiger Zuneigung auf. Die Entwicklung dieser Zuneigung zur Liebe ist das Hauptthema des Romans. Der Liebesgott Eros fungiert bei Longos zugleich als Antriebsquelle der Dichtung und darum ist der Roman auch ihm geweiht." Wikipedia. "Paul Leroy eigentlich Paul Alexandre Alfred Leroy geboren 27. Dezember 1860 in Paris; gestorben 1942 ebenda war ein französischer Maler. . Von seinen Studienreisen nach und durch Ägypten Tunesien Persien Algerien und auch dem osmanischen Reich brachte Leroy eine Vielzahl von Eindrücken und Skizzen mit welche dann auch zur Basis seiner vielgelobten Ölbilder wurden. Mit diesen Werken wurde er schon bald zu einem wichtigen Vertreter des Orientalismus." Wikipedia. - Weitere Bilder auf Anfrage oder auf unserer Homepage.

1954002315Paris: Manuel Bruker 1954. First Limited Edition. Wraps. Very Good. No. 12 of 20. With a folio of three original ink drawings signed by Vertes a folio of 10 engravings that were rejected for use in the book proper and a suite of all the engravings used in the book. This copy is also inscribed by the artist to the collector/owner which is not something called for in the limitation. 204 pp. Stylistically the Hungarian-American Vertes brought a loose near-abstraction sensibility to what nonetheless remained lucidly representational art. He executed his images with a spare economy while keeping his lines fluid and flowing. At times his output could look slapdash and improvisational; this effect though splendidly captured the emphemeral moment in an ever-changing scene and we can sense easily movement and motion. Vertes was a modernist very much of his time and place. His was an oeuvre that dared to please the average man and thus his work decorate such places as the lobby of the Carlyle Hotel in New York. Vertes was also a costume designer who won an Academy Award for his art direction and costume designs in the movie "Moulin Rouge" released in 1952. Manuel Bruker unknown
