New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 29 cm). Bilingual in English and Turkish. B/w and color ills. 306 p. "Persevering against wars, disasters, and epidemics for more than 13 centuries, the Hajj is the only ritual that has continued without interruption in the history of humanity. There have been absolutely no changes in its religious character, yet the scope of the changes made to its physical structure in the last century is much greater than the total of the changes implemented throughout the 13 centuries in question. And by using postcards, this book aims to help visualize what the Hajj was like before all these changes. This book will allow you to witness the past of the sublime and multifaceted act of worship through the medium of the postcards. We humbly hope to succeed in opening up new horizons in the minds and hearts of those interested in this topic, and especially those who have performed their pilgrimage or have yet to perform it. Contents Part I and Part VI .departure and arrival of the pilgrims, people seeing them off and welcoming them. Apart from giving us an idea about the different forms of this journey in the past, postcards also tell us how great a number of lands and peoples were affected around the time of pilgrimage every year. Part II .ceremonies from Istanbul, Damascus and Egypt. Part III is dedicated to Hejaz, Jeddah and Yanbu. These postcards may give us clues about the daily life in the Hejaz in those years, and how the pilgrims traveled and found accommodations. Parts IV and V .the holy cities of Mecca and Medina .sights from the two holy cities, Masjid al-Haram and Masjid al-Nabawi. These postcards provide an opportunity to compare the present state of these two cities with their near past in terms of architecture and town planning. Part VII. The Ottoman State launched the Hamidiye Hejaz Railroad project at the beginning of the 20th century. This was the greatest project undertaken after the Industrial Revolution for the comfort and safety of the tens of thousands of pilgrims undertaking the Hajj journey
188 pages. Illustrated in colour and black and white. The period between 1900 and 1916 was the golden age of the picture postcard in Canada; the craftsmanship evident in hand-tinted and lithographed "postals" was never surpassed, the craze for collecting and sending them never so widespread. In one year Canadians exchanged over 60 million of them, and today, as much-sought-after collectibles, these postcards present an enchantingly candid portrait of Edwardian Canada and its citizens.

calendar - kalender - 2014, ringband 14 bladen. afmetingen; 48 cm hoog + 35 cm breed foto's van Brussel, Antwerpen, Namur, Leonard Misonne was een Belgisch picturalistisch fotograaf. Belgian pictorialist photographer. (1870-1943). Born in provincial southern Belgium into a prosperous family, Misonne studied mining engineering, but never practiced it, preferring to devote himself entirely to photography from 1896 onwards. A prominent presence in the first wave of pictorialism, Misonne travelled widely and learned the bromoil process from Emile Constant Puyo in Paris in 1910. As a figurehead of the pictorialist movement in Belgium, he acquired a lasting reputation for landscapes, bucolic and timeless, a genre he would exploit throughout his life. Misonne's work tended to express a conservative aesthetic, although the later townscapes outgrew the underlying anecdotal sentimentality present in some of his earlier views. The images are characterized by a masterly treatment of light and atmospheric conditions, as summed up in Misonne's credo 'Le sujet n'est rien, la lumiere est tout' ('The subject is nothing, light is everything'). While the subject matter remained more or less constant over half a century of activity, Misonne's chosen medium evolved towards more manipulated processes?from carbon printing, including the Fresson process, until 1910-15, by way of bromoil until 1930-5, up to a final phase using mediobrome.

New English Paperback. Pbo. Large 8vo. (24 x 23,5 cm). In English and Turkish. Color and b/w ills. 72 p. "A hundred years ago, there were some 1,000 villages with a population consisting of Armenians wholly or greatly within the borders of modern Turkey. Today you can talk about only one: the village of Vakifli in the Samandagh district of the province of Hatay. Though the motive of this book was the desire to shed light on the history of Vakifli, the result is a work not limited to it. In the book while brief information about the history of Armenians of Alexandretta, Antioch and Mousa Dagh are given, some forgotten details are pointed out. The fact that Armenians had continued their presence in these lands far from their historical homelands almost unbroken for over two thousand years will surprise the reader. The detailed information and extremely rich visual materials given in the book will make it possible to imagine the state of Antioch and Alexandretta ninety or a hundred years ago.".
