Architectural Drawings from the 13 to the 19 cen
This volume provides an overview of architectural drawings from the Middle Ages to the 19th centuries portraying the cultural habits, tastes and styles of each. The homes of the bourgeoisie in Vienna and London, the Sun King?s palace, the private residences of Italy?s oldest families all feature, as do places of worship that range from country churches to city cathedrals, royal chapels, solitary bell towers and large monumental complexes as well as the various transformations of St. Peter?s Basilica, the heart of Christendom. Sharply executed strokes of the pen evoke images of classic beauty as well as picturesque glimpses of hidden corners of Venice, bridges reflected in the water and buildings born of sheer fantasy. An awe-inspiring variety and richness of ideas and technical expertise.

Das Spiel Des Engels
"Das Spiel des Engels" erklomm Platz 1 der Spiegel-Bestsellerliste und behauptete sich über 40 Wochen lang auf der Liste. Wir schreiben das turbulente Jahrzehnt vor dem Spanischen Bürgerkrieg, als alles aus den Fugen gerät. Die Bevölkerung Barcelonas explodiert, die Stadt expandiert, Gaudí erschafft seine Kathedrale, Banden kontrollieren ganze Stadtviertel und die Anarchisten zünden ihre Bomben. Der junge David Martín fristet sein Leben als Autor von mysteriösen Kriminalromanen und Detektivgeschichten. Als ernsthafter Schriftsteller verkannt, von einer tödlichen Krankheit bedroht und um die Liebe seines Lebens betrogen, scheinen seine großen Erwartungen sich in nichts aufzulösen. Doch einer glaubt an sein Talent: Der mysteriöse Verleger Andreas Corelli macht ihm ein Angebot, das Verheißung und Versuchung zugleich ist. David kann nicht widerstehen und ahnt nicht, in wessen Bann er gerät... Mit unwiderstehlicher erzählerischer Kraft lockt uns Carlos Ruiz Zafón wieder auf den Friedhof der Vergessenen Bücher: mitten hinein in einen Kosmos voller Spannung und Phantastik, Freundschaft und Liebe, Schrecken und Intrige.

The Spirit of the Bauhaus
‘Architects, sculptors, painters, we all must return to the crafts!’ declared the architect Walter Gropius in his Bauhaus manifesto. Founded as an art school in 1919 and forced to close in 1933 by the Nazis, the Bauhaus established itself as a major influence on 20th-century art and design that continues to this day.
The Bauhaus opened in Weimar, the progressive heart of Germany’s postwar republic. Under its first director, Walter Gropius, students were taught by some of the most celebrated artists of the time, including Paul Klee, Lyonel Feininger and Wassily Kandinsky. The school moved to Dessau in 1922, under its radical new director Hannes Meyer, and to Berlin in 1932 under architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In 1933 the Gestapo forced the Bauhaus to close for the last time.
This volume uncovers the sources of inspiration that brought the Bauhaus into existence, from medieval cathedrals of Europe and Hokusai prints to William Morris and Arts and Crafts. Each of the various workshops and courses at the Bauhaus is explored in detail, illustrating the extraordinary wealth of experimentation in every field: ceramics, woodwork, metalwork, textiles, glass-painting, sculpture, mural, printing and binding, typography and publicity, theatre, architecture and photography.
This essential and accessible guide to the Bauhaus, its history and turbulent political context, provides the key to understanding why it is recognized as the most durable and influential source of modern ideas about art, design and craft.

Tiffany
A jeweler with an established reputation through the world, Louis Comfort Tiffany was the spearhead of the Art Nouveau movement in the United States. At a time and in a country in perpetual growth, Tiffany succeeded in elevating the decorative to the rank of fine art. Glass was the field of expertise of Tiffany's workshops. There they developed groundbreaking techniques of treatment which produced beautiful effects on glass. Following the examples of Gallé or Daum, Tiffany made the most of this material: playing with colors, opaqueness and transparency... However, his most famous success is his lamps in mosaic of glass, similar to the cathedral's stained glass window. Diving into this prism of colors, the author makes us dream again of the birth of this enduring company.

Oxford Illustrated History of Medieval Europe
This richly illustrated book is the most authoritative account of life in medieval Europe between the fall of the Roman Empire and the coming of the Renaissance. Full coverage is given to all aspects of life in a thousand-year period which saw the creation of western civilization: from the empires and kingdoms of Charlemagne, the Byzantines, and the Hundred Years War, to the ideas of the Crusades; the building of great cathedrals and the social catastrophe of the Black Death; the cultural worlds of chivalric knights, popular festivals, and new art forms. The chapters show the movement of hte centre of gravity in European life from the Mediterranean to the north; and the authors explore the contrast between Byzantine and Renaissance cultures in the south and the new, complex political and social structures of north-west Europe, which by 1300 had the most advanced civilization the world had ever seen. Over 200 illustrations, including 24 colour plates, amplify the text; and the picture is completed with comprehensive reference material including maps, genealogies, and a full chronology.

Gothic
The earliest Gothic art dates back to mid-12th century France, from which it spread throughout Western Europe through the 15th century. The Gothic style, which dominated the European aesthetic for four centuries, was prominent both in architecture, especially cathedrals and churches, and the arts—painting, sculpture, stained glass, illuminated manuscripts, and frescoes. Predominantly religious, Gothic art was dark and emotional, marked by intensity and logical formalism. The later Gothic period, known as the International Style, was a precursor to the Renaissance.
