ill., br. Quale futuro per la monarchia inglese? Dopo la morte della Regina Elisabetta II, il sovrano più longevo della Corona britannica, la monarchia inglese si prepara ad affrontare il momento più difficile di tutta la sua storia. La fine di un regno durato 70 anni era un evento previsto, ma dalle conseguenze incalcolabili. Oggi la Royal Family non può non fare i conti col passato - con le liti, i contrasti e i vizi inconfessabili che hanno sgretolato dall'interno i delicati equilibri della Casa di Windsor. La giornalista Tina Brown racconta, con infallibile talento investigativo e senza concedere attenuanti, la vera storia della famiglia reale, dalla tragica fine della principessa Diana fino alla morte della Regina, dalle liti tra Harry e William all'arrivo di Meghan Markle, passando per gli scandali del principe Andrea, i capricci di Carlo, la riabilitazione di Camilla, la vita segreta di Kate Middleton e le parole non dette tra la Regina e Meghan. Ricco di rivelazioni inedite e di aneddoti irresistibili, "Dietro la corona" è un ritratto intimo e dettagliato che cambierà per sempre il nostro sguardo sui reali d'Inghilterra.

New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (34 x 25 cm). In English and Turkish. 238, [1] p., color and b/w ills. Dynasty and camera. Portraits from the Ottoman Court. Ömer M. Koç Collection.= Hanedan ve kamera. Osmanli Sarayindan portreler. Ömer M. Koç Koleksiyonu. "Dynasty and the Camera: Portraits from the Ottoman Court" exhibition will be held on 8 January - 29 May 2011. The exhibition consists of a selection from the Ottoman portrait photographs from Ömer M. Koç collection shows the high level of technical and artistic terms of photography by the interest of the Ottoman imperial family. This exhibition marks the importance given by the Ottoman sultans, other members of the royal dynasty and statesmen in the 19th century and includes the photographs of Prince Ömer Faruk the son of Caliph Abdülmecid, Nazime Sultan the daughter of Sultan Abdülaziz, Fehime Sultan the daughter of Sultan Murad V, Prince Yusuf Izzeddin the son of Sultan Abdülaziz, Sultan Murad V, Prince Mehmed Selim the son of Sultan Abdülhamid II, Prince Mehmed Seyfeddin and Esma Sultan the children of Sultan Abdülaziz. During the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz, who acceded to the throne in 1861 and was keenly interested in various branches of fine arts, Ottoman portrait photography reached a pinnacle of achievment in both technical and artistic terms, thanks to the skill of the Abdullah Brothers, who specialised in portrait photography. Vasilaki Kargopulo, who was appointed as court photographer in 1878, two years after Sultan Abdülhamid II came to the throne, contiuned to take similarly high quality portraits of the royal family and statesmen. As ameteur photography gained momentum from the turn of the century onwards, members of the royal family began to take their own photographs, the number of family photographs taken in private areas of royal residences increased significantly. Some members of the Ottoman royal family were particularly interested in portrait photography, notably Caliph Abdülmecid Efendi, Heir Apparent Yusuf Izzeddin Efendi, and the royal princes Ömer Faruk, Mehmed Selaheddin and Osman Fuad, who had their portrait photographs on various occasions from their childhood onwards, and pioneered this interest among other members of the royal family as expressions of loyalty and friendship continued for many years.

brossura Lady Diana li aveva avvisati: «Fate attenzione a chi sposerete». Intrappolata in un matrimonio infelice e pieno di menzogne, la principessa sognava per i figli il vero amore. Quello che non avrebbe mai immaginato è che, proprio per proteggere il loro amore, Harry e Meghan Markle avrebbero dovuto abbandonare il ruolo di membri «senior» della famiglia reale inglese, trasformando le sue parole in una profezia. In questo libro Cristina Parodi ricompone e racconta i passaggi della vicenda mediatica dei duchi di Sussex che ha catturato l'attenzione di tutto il mondo, dimostrandoci come la Megxit abbia di fatto portato a compimento la rivoluzione cominciata proprio da Lady Diana. Se un tempo, infatti, le ragazze sognavano di sposare un principe per diventare principesse e vivere nel castello, oggi Meghan ci ha insegnato che una ragazza può innamorarsi di un principe e portarlo via dal castello per salvarlo dai suoi fantasmi e vivere davvero felici e contenti. Eccola, la felicità che la principessa triste aveva tanto cercato.

Very Good German Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In German. 20 p., iv numerous b/w plates (Tafeln). Ein Weiteres Sultansbild von Gentile Bellini aus russischem Besitz. A study on Gentile Bellini, (1430-1507), was an Italian painter of the school of Venice. He came from Venice's leading family of painters, and at least in the early part of his career was more highly regarded than his younger brother Giovanni Bellini, the reverse of the case today. From 1474 he was the official portrait artist for the Doges of Venice, and as well as his portraits he painted a number of very large subjects with multitudes of figures, especially for the Scuole Grandi of Venice, wealthy confraternities that were very important in Venetian patrician social life. In 1479 he was sent to Constantinople by the Venetian government when the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II requested an artist; he returned the next year. Thereafter a number of his subjects were set in the East, and he is one of the founders of the Orientalist tradition in Western painting. His portrait of the Sultan was also copied in paintings and prints and became known all over Europe.
