Bulino, datato in lastra 1597. Sulla cornice ovale: ‘BARTHOLOMAEUS SPRANGER, S. CAES. M. PICTOR CELEBERRIMUS’. Nel cartiglio in basso: ‘NATURAE OMNIPARENTI / PRAESTANTISSIMI EIUS AEMULI IMAGINEM,/INVIDIA GEMENTE/D D/IOANNES AB ACH.S.ITEM/CAES. M. PICTOR / An o 1597’ Nel margine inferior, al centro ‘In perpetuam amici memoriam Joan Mullerus grato lubentique animo aeri incidebat / F.de Wit excudit’. Ritratto di Bartholomeus Spranger (1546-1611) in cornice ovale, affiancato da due putti con trombe, uno scudo, una lancia e un elmo. Il ritratto ovale è basato su un modello (probabilmente un dipinto) di Hans von Aachen. Entrambi gli artisti dedicano esplicitamente la stampa in amicizia a Spranger. Durante questo periodo Jan Muller diventò il principale incisore dei disegni di Spranger, il famoso pittore di corte di Praga, ed è intorno a questo period che ha produsse dieci incisioni, la maggior parte di un formato abbastanza grande, basati sui disegni del celebre pittore. Spranger inviava i suoi disegni ad Amsterdam e un certo numero di di prove di stampa esistenti rivelano che questi furono inviati a Praga per la correzione. Muller probabilmente non incontrò Spranger fino alla visita di quest'ultimo nei Paesi Bassi nel 1602. Si può supporre che Hans von Aachen (1552 - 1615), un altro pittore alla corte di Praga, abbia inviato il ritratto di Spranger (sia esso dipinto o disegnato) affinché Muller lo utilizzasse come modello per la sua incisione; la cornice, tuttavia, fu disegnata da Muller stesso. Il disegno tracciato da Muller per la cornice, con un disegno inziale per il ritratto attaccato all'interno, è conservato ad Amsterdam ( Rijkprentenkabinet), ed è possibile seguire con precisione la realizzazione della stampa attraverso ogni fase successiva: prima venne inciso il volto nella lastra, poi il resto della figura, dopo di che la cornice e infine la decorazione. Bellissima prova, ricca di toni, impressa su carta vergata coeva, rifilata al rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Engraving, dated on plate 1597.On the frame: ‘BARTHOLOMAEUS SPRANGER, S. CAES. M. PICTOR CELEBERRIMUS’ Inscribed on the bottom, on cartouche: ‘NATURAE OMNIPARENTI / PRAESTANTISSIMI EIUS AEMULI IMAGINEM,/INVIDIA GEMENTE/D D/IOANNES AB ACH.S.ITEM/CAES. M. PICTOR / An o 1597’ inscribed on the bottom: ‘In perpetuam amici memoriam Joan Mullerus grato lubentique animo aeri incidebat / F.de Wit excudit’. Bust portrait of Bartholomeus Spranger (1546-1611) in oval frame, flanked by two putti with trumpets, a shield, spear and a helmet. “The oval portrait is based on a model (probably a painting) by Hans von Aachen. Both artists explicitly dedicate the print in friendship to Spranger. During this period Jan Muller had become the chief engraver of the designs by Spranger, the famous court painter of Prague, and it was around now he produced ten engravings, most of a fairly large format, after his designs. Spranger sent his drawn designs to Amsterdam and a number of extant proof impressions reveal that these were sent to Prague for correction. Muller probably did not meet Spranger until the latter’s visit to the Netherlands in 1602. It can be assumed that Hans von Aachen (1552 – 1615), another painter at the Prague court, sent Spranger’s portrait (whether painted or drawn) for Muller to use as a model for his print; the frame, however, was designed by Muller himself. Muller’s traced design for the frame, with the initial design for the portrait engraving attached inside, has been preserved (Amsterdam, Rijkprentenkabinet), and it is possible to follow the making of the print precisely through each successive stage: first the face was engraved in the plate, then the rest of the figure, after which the frame and finally the circumscription were engraved.” F. Kok, Artists Portrayed by Their Friends: Goltzius and His Circle, in Netherlands Quarterly for the History of Art,Vol. 24, pp. 167-168.

A treasure from the formative years of jazz diva Diana Krall. In 1980 Diana graduated from Woodlands Junior Secondary School in Nanaimo, British Columbia on Vancouver Island, Canada. Her photo first appears on page 19 where she is recognized on the 1978-79 Arts Honour Roll. On page 121 in the Band section appears a gorgeous head-shot of a young Diana playing the saxophone, beneath which appears the caption 'Diana!'. Michelle Krall, Diana's younger sister, appears on page 106. Finally, Diana's graduation photo and write-up appear on page 58. Beside her photo we read "Diana Piano resembles her Dad. In her spare time she eats and sleeps. Her life ambition is to replace Oscar Peterson. 'Way to go, Diana!'". Diana's current global superstardom is clearly no accident! The book itself is clean, tight and unmarked with very light wear. An excellent copy of this truly wonderful and inspiring item. Book
1930WRCAM52672Paradise Valley Az 1930. 220 silver gelatin photographs most 2 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches to 3 1/4 x 5 3/4 inches with a handful of larger photographs and some smaller-format panoramas. Oblong folio. Original brad-bound album. Minor dust-soiling. Overall very good. An engaging collection of original photographs from Arizona circa 1930. The album would seem to depict the early days of the Judson School a well-known boarding school which opened in Paradise Valley Arizona in 1928. It was evidently assembled by one of the students. The first photograph shows the student body of nineteen young men in coat and tie; the second shows founder and head George Judson and the three men who evidently constituted the whole faculty at the time. Since one of the photographs contains a joking reference to Prohibition it would seem to date before 1933; at the same time there are enough buildings and structures to suggest the school had been going for several years hence our dating to circa 1930. <br> <br> The school prided itself on offering a vigorous outdoor life as well as regular schooling. The students are shown in various settings: tending to a camp surveying or on horseback in the desert a few shots depicting a snow-covered desert. The young men are also depicted at leisure: reading in chairs indoors and outdoors playing baseball and tennis wrestling and roping. Also present are a good number of photographs depicting the landscape around the area captured while the boys were exploring the areas around Paradise Valley and Phoenix with numerous shots of the men preparing food while out on the desert prairies. Five photographs depict a railroad derailment and a handful capture Spanish-style buildings or Native American structures in the area with one image of a Native American family inside a makeshift tent. There is also a group of photographs in an eastern setting presumably the student back home. <br> <br> The Judson School once in a rural desert setting was eventually surrounded by the explosive growth of Phoenix. The owner of the school which was always a private for- profit endeavor sold the land to luxury real estate developers and closed the school in 2000. <br> <br> A wonderful collection of photographs depicting a famous pioneering school in Arizona. unknown books
185020700Paris 1850. Pencil pen and wash drawing with numerous sub-titles in ink signed "J. Litoux" A fascinating and beautiful architectural drawing - or 'rendu' of basic elements of house construction in cluding walls floors doorways roofs and ceilings.<br/> <br/> A fine drawing from an architectural student at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris the most influential architectural school in existence during much of the 18th century the whole of the 19th century and the first part of the 20th century. 'Students were eligible for the Ecole if they were at least fifteen years old or under thirty. They began with the seconde classe in which they competed in the concours d'émulation. These alternated between an esquisse - a rough sketch for which up to twelve hours was allowed - and a rendu - the large-scale finished drawing for which one to three months were allowed. Two to four years were usually required for a student to accumulate enough credits to enter the première classe. The same system was followed again usually for two to three years after which the student should have accumulated enough credits to compete for the Grand Prix de Rome. The winner of the Grand Prix was entitled to five years study under the auspices of the French Academy in Rome. For each of his first three years he was required to submit an analytical study of an ancient monument. For his fourth year he had to submit a complete reconstruction of a major classical work. For his fifth year he was required to submit an original work designed to a program of his own invention. In the seconde classe the student was required to attend a variety of lectures in theory history and construction and learned to prepare construction drawings. Work was done at ateliers located outside the precincts of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. These were rented and organized by the students themselves and the students had the right to invite a teacher of their own choice to serve as their maître.

Handwritten calligraphy partly in gold with a large hand coloured coat-of-arms as bestowed on the Ltd. and the coats-of-arms of the mentioned officials as well as their signatures.

Eshton Hall School was situated in Gargrave in the West Riding of the County of York until the premises were abandonned and the building was turned into a nursing home. There is still an active group of alumni. During the Second World War Bentham School was relocated to Eshton Hall and afterwards in 1949 an independent public school was realised. Therefore Eshton was born as a co-ed initially. The original main building was burnt to the ground in the late 1500's leaving only the old wing and arch. The new main building with its impressive tower was built in the early part of the 1600's by the Wilson family who were Royalist sympathisers. H169. hardcover
179138981791. 13 x 9 inches. Dark brown body colour on prepared paper. Inscribed "N.2.Stück" and "am 9ten Aprill 1791--nach der Natur gezeichnet von JEW" ink collector's stamp "Linel-Smlg. No." followed by pencilled number "1046" all on verso. Framed. Provenance: Linel ink collector's stamp on verso.<br/> <br/> A high quality image that clearly is drawn from life as the inscription claims. The artist's use of a dark prepared ground recalls the work of Barbara Regina Dietsch and her family. A search of Nissen's index of artists reveals one possible name: the Swiss artist Johann Emmanuel Wyss 1782-1837. However the maturity and assurance shown in the present drawing would seem to rule him out: he could have been no older than nine in April 1791. unknown
