Reisverhaal Midnight in Sicily | Peter Robb
Reisverhaal Midnight in Sicily | Peter Robb
Mooi verslag van een reis in het echte Sicilie: over kunst, eten, geschiedenis, reizen natuurijk de Casa Nostra. Dit boek spreekt zeer tot de verbeelding, zeker als je rondreist. (Engels) Peter Robb's journey into the dark heart of Sicily uses history, painting, literature and food to shed light on southern Italy's legacy of political corruption and violent crime. Taking the trial of seven-times Prime Minister, Giulio Andreotti, for alleged Mafia involvement as its starting point, Midnight in Sicily combines a searching investigation with an exuberant, sensual appreciation of this beautiful and bewildering island. Recensie(s) One of the greatest charms of Robb's book is his evident delight in southern Italy, particularly its food, which is recorded with such intensity of memory that one can almost taste it...

Reisverhaal An Unexpected Light - Travels in Afghanistan | Jason Elliot
Reisverhaal An Unexpected Light - Travels in Afghanistan | Jason Elliot
An account of a trip through war-torn and poverty-stricken Afghanistan, this remarkable book could have been titled "An Unexpected Beauty." Elliot, who first traveled to the country as a 19-year-old enthusiast of the mujahedin, has no illusions about the inherent shortcomings of travel writing ("a semi-fictional collection of descriptions that affirm the prejudices of the day"). He also dismisses the journalistic method, which relies on a single bombed-out street in Kabul to monolithically represent an entire nation. So it is not without some self-deprecation that he offers his own strange and improbable adventures in the country's lawless stretches and perilous mountain passes. "I had in mind a quietly epic sort of journey," he explains. "I had given up on earlier and more ambitious schemes and was prepared to make an ally of uncertainty, with which luck so often finds a partnership." Humorous, honest and wry, a devotee of Afghanistan's culture, Elliot strives to debunk the myth of "…

Vampire Hunter D Elite Exclusive Statue 1/6 D on Horse 79 cm
Vampire Hunter D Elite Exclusive Statue 1/6 D on Horse 79 cm
The team at Figurama Collectors is honored to present a groundbreaking accomplishment in striking design-the Vampire Hunter D Elite Exclusive Statue. This is a feat brought to life by painstaking consideration of the detail present in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. With the world's first and only license granted for this classic after a journey five years in the making, the team wanted to do right by fans. We worked closely with the respected Japanese illustrator to create a Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust statue of this caliber, and the design was personally approved by Amano-san. Set during the iconic graveyard scene, this statue immerses you within the dark and swampy setting of D's first encounter with the Marcus Brothers. This version of D is closely modeled after the illustrations of Yoshitaka Amano featured in the Vampire Hunter D novels. This influence is palpable in the ornate touches of the statue. D is seated astride his rearing cybernetic horse with his crescent longsword and se…

Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides
Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides
Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!   There is a reason no other publisher produces a guide to Somaliland: it is not an easy book to produce. The research is extremely challenging, the production is expensive and, because Somaliland is such a niche travel destination, the sales potential is very limited. Unfortunately, the first edition of this book did not recoup its costs. We were left with a difficult decision: increase the retail price to make a second edition possible or admit defeat and allow the guide to go out of print. We don’t like to admit defeat.   This second edition is significantly more expensive than the first edition, but we sincerely hope you’ll understand why that is the case, and feel that the revised price still represents excellent value for such vital and unique information. We are committed to providing high quality tr…

Bruegel in detail (Hardback)
Bruegel in detail (Hardback)
Het werk van Pieter Bruegel nodigt tot in de kleinste details uit tot studie en bewondering. Door zijn grondige scholing als miniaturist, tekenaar en prentontwerper en zijn verbluffend technische vermogen als schilder weet Bruegel elk beeld en elk detail ervan visueel leesbaar te maken. Bruegel is een kunstenaar die een artistieke wereld heeft gecreeerd met een ongekende visuele rijkdom. Zelfs de kenners die zijn oeuvre al jaren bestuderen, worden nog steeds verrast door nieuwe ontdekkingen. Naast het rijke kijkplezier is er bij Bruegel altijd een visuele, conceptuele en intellectuele gelaagdheid aan betekenissen die vooral in de details zichtbaar wordt. Even kenmerkend is de stevige portie humor, die zich uit in een subtiele en ironische benadering van de mens en zijn universele en tijdloze zwakheden. Bruegel in detail zoomt in op die buitengewoon visuele, artistiek-technische en intellectuele rijkdom in het oeuvre van de meester. Bij Bruegel krijgt elk detail betekenis en relevantie.

Reisverhaal Dreaming of Jupiter | Ted Simon
Reisverhaal Dreaming of Jupiter | Ted Simon
Ted Simon is the author of the classic travel book JUPITER'S TRAVELS. It documents his four-year journey round the world by motorbike, travelling through Europe, Africa, South and North America, and Asia. A number one bestseller in the late 1970s, it is still regarded as one of the greatest motorcycle books - indeed, one of the greatest travel books - ever written. In 2001, at the age of 69, Ted Simon decided to retrace his journey, and DREAMING OF JUPITER is the result. It took him two and a half years - during which time he revisited all the countries he had travelled through in the 1970s. He found much had changed, and he reflects upon the increased poverty, political upheavals, environmental issues and indeed the changes in himself. But ultimately, DREAMING OF JUPITER is a hugely inspiring read with a positive message at its heart - that even at the age of 70 you can still set off on an adventure, and be surprised and excited by what life throws at you along the way. *'Gloriously …

Productomschrijving

'Caravaggio in Detail' is the fourth title in the successful In Detail series, following Van Eyck, Bruegel and Bosch. The Italian genius Caravaggio is considered one of the most important artists of the Baroque era. The Italian master's painting style was groundbreaking, not only because of his unique treatment of light and shade, but above all for his unprecedented realism: instead of the customary idealised figures, he painted everyday, working-class people, even in religious scenes. This book explores Caravaggio's turbulent life and his equally dramatic work in a surprising way. The book is divided into themed chapters: Still Lifes, Hidden Self-Portraits and Stimulated Senses, and shows the paintings as never before, in full-page details.
