Hardback. Condition: New. Text in English and German. The "other Italy", that is the rural Italy, far from the bustle of the cities. It is the Italy of the Apennines, its natural scenery, its remote villages, churches and religious communities, its farmers, charcoal burners, shepherds and fishermen -- even if these old professions are now dwindling away. The author has travelled hundreds of kilometres through this rural Italy on foot, and travelled thousands of kilometres through it by car. Although he was acting in a professional capacity as a geologist, his interests went beyond this wonderful country's geology to embrace everything it had to offer. In the year 1959, he embarked on ten years working in Liguria (north of Genoa) and twenty years in Calabria, on the toe of the Italian "boot", on the flank of the Aspromonte facing the Ionic Sea. Further visits to both areas up to the present day have contributed to his fifty-year relationship with Italy, and a body of Italian experiences which was simply begging to be set down with accompanying pictures. Eight stories tell of the land and the people, of the wild landscape of Calabria and its Mafia, of rural festivals, Christmas customs, Italian food, abandoned farms -- and of "Nonno", a grand-father. A wealth of photographs, mainly in colour, join with the stories in encouraging the reader to forsake bathing holidays and art tourism and take a trip to a near and yet distant land.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For the first time, texts and photographs present an overall view of all the Prussian gardens and parks in Berlin, Potsdam and elsewhere in Brandenburg created under the Hohenzollerns over a period of more than three centuries. Only the cross-genre collaborative effort of garden designers, gardeners, architects, scenographers, sculptors, painters, and creative rulers, made it possible to turn the environs of Berlin and Potsdam [] step by step into a garden, as Frederick William IV put it in 1840. Figures such as David Garmatter, Friedrich Christian Glume, Simeon Godeau, Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff, Peter Joseph Lenne, Antoine Pesne, Prince Hermann von Pueckler-Muskau, Georg Potente, Karl Friedrich Schinkel, the Sello brothers, and Antoine Watteau picked artistic forces that created the Prussian garden realm. The present volume is an attempt to approach the ideas forming the basis of the high standard of princely landscape art. The Prussian gardens in Berlin, Potsdam and elsewhere in Bran- denburg: for the first time, texts and photographs present an over- all view of all the gardens and parks created under the Hohenzol- lerns over a period of more than three centuries. Only the cross-genre collaborative effort of garden designers, gardeners, architects, scenographers, sculptors, painters, and cre- ative rulers, the most prominent of whom were Frederick II and Frederick William IV, made it possible to turn the environs of Ber- lin and Potsdam [.] step by step into a garden, as Frederick Wil- liam IV put it in 1840. Figures such as David Garmatter, Friedrich Christian Glume, Simeon Godeau, Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobels- dorff, Peter Joseph Lenne, Antoine Pesne, Prince Hermann von Puckler-Muskau, Georg Potente, Karl Friedrich Schinkel, the Sello brothers, and Antoine Watteau picked from a whole cornucopia of names indicate the spectrum of artistic forces that created the Prussian garden realm. Impatient with his royal client, who had once again cut his fund- ing, Lenne alluded to the high standard of princely landscape art: Your Majesty still does not understand how ingenious my idea is. The present volume is an attempt to examine the ingeniousness of the idea specifically inherent in the gardens of the Hohenzol- lerns in Prussia. Until his retirement, Hillert Ibbeken was professor of geology at the Freie Universitat Berlin. He has been involved in architecture and landscape photography throughout his life. His book Karl Friedrich Schinkel. Das architektonische Werk heute /The architectural work today, edited in co-operation with Elke Blauert, was published by Edition Axel Menges in 2001.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
