Описание: "Il était une fois un roi et une reine...", "il était une fois une petite fille de village"... Il suffit de cette clé magique pour que s'ouvre à nous le monde où paraissent tour à tour la belle au bois dormant, le petit chaperon rouge, la barbe bleue ou Cendrillon. Perrault puise dans le folklore ancien pour nous conter dans des récits courts et alertes des histoires qui nous éloignent délicieusement du monde, avant que la morale finale nous y reconduise.Des contes de fées? Sans doute. Mais, autant que le merveilleux, ce qui nous enchante, c'est le naturel et la savante simplicité d'un art d'écrire qui, à chaque page, séduit notre imagination. D'abord parus séparément en 1694 et 1697, ce n'est qu'à la fin du XVIIIe siècle que les contes en vers et en prose seront réunis en un même volume, signe que l'engouement qu'ils avaient suscité du vivant de Perrault ne se démentait pas, en dépit du jugement sévère des gens de lettres, à l'époque des Lumières, pour ces puériles bagatelles.Mais le public le plus large demeurait fidèle à ces contes - et ce public, c'est aujourd'hui nous dont l'esprit d'enfance ne s'est pas perdu.
This is the Story of the Bible, in pictures both new and old. These images started out as sketches by Gustave Dor , who died in 1883. During his short life, he produced striking paintings, from small projects to the enormous Le Christ quittant le pr toire (nearly 30 feet long and just over 19 feet high). Painting didn't pay well, so he also produced woodcuts by the hundreds, illustrations for picture books, newspapers, and classics -- literally everything from caricatures and street scenes to Little Red Riding Hood and the crucifixion. Among his voluminous work, we find a set of biblical illustrations unmatched in beauty and scope. Dor 's engravers cut his sketches into end-grain wood (boxwood was a popular choice). Those wooden blocks were inked, pressed into paper, and Dor 's breathtaking black and white images were published in Bibles around the world. Fast-forward almost 150 years and a few technological revolutions. We made high resolution scans of Dor 's woodcuts. Our artist, Will Britton, digitally painted them, bringing Dor 's stunning black and white images into vibrant color.
We have organized these pictures in (mostly) chronological order. You can hop from one to the next like rocks in a riverbed, from the headwaters of the Story all the way down the river to its end -- which is a new beginning. You'll see the biblical Story as you've never seen it before, in all its beauty, brutality, and finally, grace.
Every once in a while, let your foot slip off the rocks. Pick up a Bible, look up that half-remembered episode, and immerse yourself in the water of life.
Автор: Dore Gustave Название: The Dore Gallery of Bible Illustrations ISBN: 1793108951 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781793108951 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 9190.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of engravings illustrative of the Bible-the designs being all from the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore. The original work, from which this collection has been made, met with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally, this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has been to introduce subjects of general interest-that is, those relating to the most prominent events and personages of Scripture-those most familiar to all readers; the plates being chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press-in, narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of illustrations upon sacred themes.
