Item description from seller

10 Bl. Aus dem Nachlass von Dr. Dieter George (1935-1985), Geschäftsführer der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft (ab 1977), Direktor der Orientabteilung der Staatsbibliothek Preußischer Kulturbesitz (ab 1972) und Herausgeber des "Verzeichnis Orientalischer Handschriften in Deutschland" (VOHD, ab 1982). Einband leicht berieben. Papierbedingt leicht gebräunt. - Karl Roessing is represented in this exhibition with fourteen works of his art. What is common to all of them is an atmosphere of peace and solemn calmness disturbed nowhere by elements of triviality. This impression is due to the fact that the world of his pictures is not a living one but a world of by-gone days. He does not describe this world so as to illustrate the way it lived but he recalls it by the attributes of the past thus provoking and guiding the sentiments of the spectator. The objects he displays have already lived their lives ; they bear the marks of decay. However, this decay is not deplored but voluntarily accepted : no longer being subject to the transitoriness of life, things become symbols of eternity. Thus fragments of a deceased reality, requisites of past ages create a spiritual world which has to be realised by contemplation. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
