A fine copy of the first printing. *** "Auguste Renoir, quite understandably, is the most popular and easily understood painter of the Impressionist period. Even in his arthritic old age, Renoir never ceased to find inspiration in the female body, happily placing himself in the opulent tradition of Titian, Rubens, and Courbet, whose work he studied and raised to a new power. Renoir favored and sought a particular physical type, characterized by round, heart-shaped faces, snub noses, narrow, almond-shaped eyes, blushing cheeks, and wide, rose-colored mouths. Among his preferred models were Aline Charigot, Nini, Gabrielle Renard, a cousin of his wife, and Lise Trehot. Even when working from the model in his studio, Renoir portrayed the nubile subjects in dappled landscapes, some of the scenes inspired by antiquity and mythology, others taken from the green pastures of northern France or the Mediterranean lushness of the South, where he built a house at Cagnes in 1907. Here are all of Renoir's most gorgeous nudes, gentle beauty flowering in tropical nature where modesty is as unknown as vice, and satisfaction acknowledges no bounds." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

Zustand: Gut. DUE TO THE WEIGHT (over 1000g) ONLY TO BE SENT AS A PACKAGE (=5.20 ¤), other countries on request! 94 pages, text in English, throughout with partly full-page color photos, gold-embossed spine title, dust jacket (this one with slight wear), THE ALPS - They stretch across the heart of Europe, from Nice to Vienna, covering half a dozen countries with a fantastic chaos of roc and ice, trapping the turbulent waters of a host of rivers to form spectacular lakes. They are the watershed of Western Europe. Moreover they separate two climatic zones - north and south. They could even be said to be the frontier between two worlds, the Anglo-Saxon and the Latin. The remark is also true when we consider Europe in the other direction: in the west of the influence of the Atlantic reaches far inland, while the east has a continental climate, the warm air off the Hungarian plains. The Alps.Voltaire called them "those haughty mountains which weigh down upon hell, and split the heavens". They were long thought of as a frightful place, into which travelers ventured only at their peril, the realm of death and silence. But there is life hidden among the ice and snow. Hardy shoots of vegetation cling to the rocky crags at great altitude; grass waves in the wind at the rim of huge abysses. Then we come down to the enormous upland pastures, strewn with wild flowers such as gentian, and the great coniferous forests, with their endless interplay of light and shade. The Alps are, with the wealth of their diversity, the quintessential mountain range, forever associated with mountain climbing, to which they have contributed, inter alia, a synonym - alpinism. Whatever the country, the region or the altitude, the Alps offer a greater wealth of delights than one could hope to find in any other mountain range.
