ril. Prima ancora di compiere trent'anni, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) aveva già realizzato il David e la Pietà, due delle sculture più famose dell'intera storia dell'arte. I risultati conseguiti come scultore, pittore, progettista e architetto sono unici - nessun artista prima o dopo di lui ha mai prodotto un corpus di opere così vasto, multi-sfaccettato e di ampia portata. Questa nuova edizione ripercorre l'ascesa di Michelangelo fino al suo ingresso nell'élite culturale del rinascimento. Dieci capitoli riccamente illustrati presentano i dipinti, le sculture, gli edifici e i disegni dell'artista, senza dimenticare un'attenta analisi del tour de force per realizzare gli affreschi della Cappella Sistina. Stupende riproduzioni a tutta pagina e particolari ingranditi condurranno i lettori molto vicino alle opere, mentre un esauriente saggio biografico racconta le caratteristiche e le circostanze più personali di Michelangelo, come la sua natura solitaria, la sua bramosia di denaro e incarichi, l'avidità, la ricchezza e le sue doti di investitore oculato.
ill., ril. Inventore, pittore, scultore, scienziato, architetto e ingegnere, Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) incarna la quintessenza del genio rinascimentale. Nessun altro artista della sua generazione ci ha lasciato un'opera così vasta, innovativa e rivoluzionaria, eppure Leonardo resta il più enigmatico di tutti. Dall'affascinante Ultima cena alla straordinaria Gioconda, scoprite tutti i dipinti di uno dei maestri dell'arte più prolifici della storia. Tratta dalla nostra fortunatissima edizione XXL, una delle più complete indagini su Leonardo attualmente esistenti, questa raccolta ripercorre la vita e le opere dell'artista attraverso 10 capitoli, e riunisce tutti i dipinti conosciuti, tra cui alcuni dei più preziosi tesori del Louvre, del Prado e della National Gallery di Londra, insieme ad altre opere meno note, ma non per questo meno sbalorditive quanto a precisione ed equilibrio formale. Questo studio approfondito include nitide riproduzioni dei dettagli delle opere, accompagnate da chiari testi esplicativi per contestualizzare l'opera di Leonardo all'interno della temperie socio-culturale e delle consuetudini pittoriche dell'epoca, nonché dalle più recenti intuizioni scientifiche e da una prefazione aggiornata dedicata a una delle più sensazionali scoperte storico-artistiche del nostro tempo: il Salvator Mundi.

ill., br. Il primo maggio 1869, con l'entrata in vigore del regio decreto 4921, Bolladello e Peveranza hanno terminato di essere Comuni autonomi per diventare frazioni del Comune di Cairate. Da quel giorno è iniziata una nuova storia amministrativa e sociale di tre paesi che sono diventati un unico Comune. Questo libro vuole raccontare, per la prima volta, questo percorso lungo più di centocinquant'anni, tramite le opere delle amministrazioni comunali che si sono susseguite. La storia del Comune di Cairate è anche la storia dei suoi cittadini, delle sue esigenze, della sua vita di tutti i giorni. Documenti inediti d'archivio, le testimonianze degli ex sindaci o dei loro parenti, un ricco apparato fotografico e la lista di tutti i consiglieri comunali dal 1869 a oggi rendono questo libro uno strumento di sintesi fondamentale per la storia del Comune di Cairate dalla proclamazione del Regno d'Italia a oggi.

½ S. Folio. "Ich Unterzeichneter Julius von Zwiedineck Südenhorst k. k. Konsularseleve zu Jerusalem bevollmächtige den Herrn Moritz Lederer, Dr. der Rechte, Praktikanten bei der k. k. Finanzprokuratur zu Wien, alle für mich bei der k. k. Staatskasse flüssigen, wie immer gearteten Beträge zu erheben und über dieselben rechtskräftig zu quittiren". - Julius Frh. Zwiedineck von Südenhorst, der dritte Sohn von Oberst Ferdinand Zwiedineck, besuchte die orientalische Akademie in Wien und war hernach Konsularseleve in Jerusalem; die Stelle selbst dürfte er nur kurz vor diesem Schreiben angetreten haben. Später in Konstantinopel, Beirut, Smyrna, Janina und Trapezunt tätig, wo er den Rang und Charakter eines Generalkonsuls bekleidete, ging er in außerordentlicher Mission 1872 nach Persien, "um für die Betheiligung der dortigen Handels- und Industriekreise an der Wiener Weltausstellung 1873 zu wirken" (Wurzbach LX, 344). - Mit von nicht identifizierter Hand stammendem Bearbeitungsvermerk und 15-Kreuzer-Stempelmarke; mit kleineren Randläsuren.

8vo. (6), 437, (1 blank) pp. With a cut-out picture of a Bedouin woman on the verso of the half-title-page, a picture of "a typical Arab of Yemen" as the frontispiece, 15 plates, a floor plan of a mosque, 2 maps and numerous small illustrations in the text. Yellow cloth. An account of the history, geography, religion, and political and social situation of the Middle East, and especially of the Arabian Peninsula, from a Christian missionary point of view. This information is presented alongside accounts of the author's experiences, and it is illustrated with images of local peoples, landscapes and examples of Arabic script and music. According to the preface, this second edition of Zwemer's first work, first published in 1899/1900, was published in order to correct some minor errors that had made their way into the first edition because of the physical distance between the author and the publishers. At the time of publication, Zwemer was doing missionary work in Arabia, while his work was being published in the U.S. The present copy was published in Edinburgh and London, but apparently (according to the verso of the title-page) printed by the Caxton Press in New York. - Reverend Samuel Marinus Zwemer (1867-1952), sometimes nicknamed "the Apostle to Islam", was an American missionary, traveller and scholar. He was a part of the Reformed Church of America, meaning that his beliefs and later missionary work were rooted in Calvinistic traditions, and he was ordained within that church in 1890. Together with James Cantine and John G. Lansing, Zwemer founded the Arabian Mission, which was active from 1889 until 1913. During that time, Zwemer was active in Iraq, Bahrein, and several locations in Arabia. He also worked in Egypt and travelled extensively throughout Asia Minor. From 1929 until his retirement at the age of 70 in 1937 he taught at the Princeton Theological Seminary, as a professor of missions and as a professor of the history of religion. - Binding rubbed, soiled and slightly damaged around the corners, edges foxed, water stain in the top margin of the first leaves (until p. 14), hinges weak. With an inscription in German on the first flyleaf dated 17 January 1904; cut-out picture of a Bedouin woman pasted on the verso of the half-title. List of works in the NYPL relating to Arabia and the Arabs (1911), p. 174. Cf. Macro 2371; Shapero, The Islamic World (2003), 511.
8vo. 125 pp. With frontispiece, 15 plates and several text illustrations (including a map of the Gulf coast and the first page of a Quran). Original illustrated cloth. First edition of this account of travel through the Arabian desert. - S. M. Zwemer (1867-1952), the "Apostle to Islam", was a missionary at Basra, Bahrain, and at other locations in Arabia from 1891 to 1905. He was a member of the Arabian Mission (1890-1913) and served in Egypt from 1913 to 1929. He also travelled widely in Asia Minor and was elected a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society of London. - A good, clean copy without the front flyleaf.
