Описание:

Joaqu n Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863 - died in Cercedilla 1923) is one of the most successful Spanish painters ever. He was a genius in capturing the essence of the scene he was painting.

Some of the first nudes by Sorolla was gifted to his future father in law, the photographer Antonio Garcia and mother in law Clotilde del Castillo.

When Sorolla won a stipend to study in Rome, nudes were obligatory, but his skills developed being able to convey expressions that the jury back in Valencia found morally improper.

Sorolla painted two magnificent nudes of his wife, a beautiful tribute to their love.

Joaqu n Sorolla however, is especially famous for his nudes of happy children and youth on the beach under the dazzling Valencian sun.

Joaqu n Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863 - died in Cercedilla 1923) is one of the most successful Spanish painters ever. He was a genius in capturing the essence of the scene he was painting. He was a master of light.

Joaqu n Sorolla loved his wife and his family. He painted them all the time. He lived in the time when photography was being invented and commercialized. Sorolla created a virtual family album with his wonderful paintings. He invited us to see and share his happiness. Sorolla was not shy about his family as many of his contemporaries were.

He sold many paintings that showed his family, especially his daughter Mar a was a favorite with the public, and Sorolla jokingly called Mar a the breadwinner of the family. He wanted us to share his view of the ideal family as he shared his view of a great and united Spain. Sorolla painted dogs and a cat as pets, as part of the family, superbly catching their soul and character.

Описание:

Nativity is a scene from the stories of the birth of Jesus. They are in the
Gospels of Matthew and Luke. With inspiration in these stories you use either figurines or live people to create the scene and convey the story.
In Slovenia you find on of the finest live Nativity plays in the famous
Postojna Cave

One of the wonderful traditions of Christmas is the Nativity. But you don't have to be Christian or a regular church-goer to love these wonderful displays. The creativity and artistry speak to all children and to the child in us all.

These scenes excite especially the children. Their happy smiles and their joy is so wonderfully rewarding. But adults as well enjoy both creating and looking at the nativity scenes.

This has developed into a huge handicraft industry in countries like Spain and Italy. Artists and craftsmen work all year round to create their next exhibits, which are sold especially at Christmas markets.

Families collect figurines and accessories from the markets and create their own displays at home. Churches, beginning with the Vatican, and cities and other institutions create their own annual exhibits that are venerated and celebrated.

This little book shows you some of the nativity performances we have seen and some of the figurines and accessories that you can find in the various Christmas markets and shops in Slovenia.

Nativity is today a Catholic tradition, separated in many countries from official society as Christianity does no longer have the same central function, although the European values and norms are deeply steeped in Christianity. Although Slovenia is a mainly secular country, Catholicism and Lutheranism still has a huge influence.

We show you also some alternative displays, usually with music that make the children, and adults, happy. What was striking was the ambience and the food. Everybody was out eating and celebrating

This little book shows you some of the nativity scenes we have seen and some of the figurines and accessories that you can find in the Christmas markets and shops in and around Salzburg, Austria. You find the most beautiful Tyrolian hand made wooden cribs and figurines here.

Nativity is a Catholic tradition, separated in many countries from official society as Christianity no longer has the same function, although European values are deeply steeped in Christianity.

In Northern European countries the birth of Jesus is no longer the central theme of the Christmas displays.

We show you also some alternative displays, usually with animals, that are used instead to make the children, and adults, happy. Mostly they are in shopping windows and displace for a while the display of some of the commercial goods that is the daily function of the windows.

Описание:

Joaqu n Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863 - died in Cercedilla 1923) is one of the most successful Spanish painters ever. He was a genius in capturing the essence of the scene he was painting. He lived while photography was being invented and popularized. Some of his breathtaking seascapes show how he was familiar with and employed similar techniques as the photograph. His landscapes are also a great introduction to Spanish history.

Most of his paintings of boats and the sea capture the fishermen in Valencia, who fished from the beach. He has painted several masterpieces of the returning boats being pulled to the beach. The oxen used to pull the boats are captured so strong, so life like, with so much love. He also painted the waiting fisherwomen and the children happily playing. He painted scenes from the lives of the fishermen. Sorolla's paintings are extremely powerful and colorful and although he is usually labelled an impressionist, he is also often very naturalist and detailed. The reader is kindly referred to our book about Sorolla's landscapes.

Описание:

Visit Edo, modern day Tokyo, as experienced by Utagawa Hiroshige in this wonderful tourist guide from the 1850s.

Experience Edo as the Japanese loved it, a sophisticated city catering to a wealthy elite of damiyo, local rulers that regularly had to spend time away from their lands, in Edo, where the shogun could keep an eye on them.

The 100 Famous Views of Edo was one of the popular print series made in Japan, like Hokusai's series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, which had been published earlier in the 1830s and which influenced Hiroshige tremendously (ISBN 9782919787159 as hard cover).

But much more important is the influence the 100 Famous Views of Edo had on European impressionists like Van Gogh, Degas, Manet and Monet. Hiroshige impressed with cropped items to create focus and his horizontal format.

Birds of Play will show you some places in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, where you and your family can enjoy meeting birds as outpets.

Activities like feeding ducks creates an important bond between a child and the natural world and it stays with them long after the activity is over. If done the right way, it won't impact heavily on our native fauna.

Outpets are basically the animals around us and with whom you can interact - for your benefit, the benefit of your children and for the benefit of the animals as well.

There are many places around the World where you can enjoy outpets.

It is especially important if you live in a city. People who live close to Nature have a lot more opportunity to meet and interact with animals. Therefore, you need to consider the access more carefully when you live in a city.

Описание:

Depending on the year and the season the kittens would play either indoors, outdoors or in the covered kitten playground up at the Kansas plot.

To be able to study you needed to have suitable toys available for the kittens. We started out with simple toys like a ball, but later developed into whole ready-made playgrounds, "cat-towers."As the kittens grew older the games became quite hectic and destructive. The sheer number of kittens contributed to the destruction.

A very unusual game was the Game of the Green Jar.

The Green Jar was a gift from a friend, a jar that she eventually had in surplus.

It was great for big flowers, branches with cherry blossoms or apple blossoms, and other gifts from the garden.

We mostly enjoyed the garden in situ.

The Green Jar therefore doubled as playground equipment for indoor activity.

Описание:

Trier is one of the oldest cities in Germany close to one of the smallest countries of the world - The Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, which Christmas Market we already have visited.

The Christmas Market in Trier in its present form has been held for 40 years and is a romantic experience in a Roman and Medieval setting. It is often visited together with the Christmas Market in the picturesque village of Bernkastel-Kues.

The Christmas Market appears to have started in the late Middle Ages in Germany. The Middle Ages is a long historic period in Europe starting abt 500 AD with the fall of the Western Roman Empire and lasting to abt 1500 AD when the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery took over.

It started as the Welcoming of Christ the Child - "Christ Kind" in German - at the beginning of the four Sundays of Advent that ends with Christmas Day, which is the 25 December.

The Christmas market is a fair connected with the seasonal period and infused with our religion, which very much organized everybody's lives back then.

In Medieval times, rights to hold fairs were often granted by the feudal lords to convents and bishoprics both as income generation for the religious work and as a city development tool. Many towns trace their prosperity to the market rights. The close association between the local cathedral and the Christmas market is still evident although the taxes now go elsewhere.

Описание:

The Malaga Christmas Market is a completely different experience from the Christmas Markets in the German speaking World. This is not only due to the lovely weather but also to significant cultural differences.

Malaga is one of the oldest cities not only in Spain but in the World, inhabited for almost 3000 years.

Malaga has the warmest winters in Europe with an average of 17.3 ^oC in December through February. The Montes de Malaga protects against the Northern weather systems and it is beautifully situated on the Mediterranean Sea. It has close to 600,000 inhabitants, including many pensioners from Northern Europe.

Minnie got annoyed - and next day she moved out

One night some months later Cristina had a dream.

She dreamt that Minnie was in another house and that she made poubelle inside. In this dream the man got angry and threw Minnie out of the window. After that Minnie was telling Cristina in the dream that there was a big storm, and she was having a hard time and she just wanted to come back to be with us.

Cristina told me about the dream next morning, and we discussed where she was.

In the early afternoon Eric came back from the garden and called out to Cristina - Guess what I have found

It was Minnie

She had come back to survey, how the situation was.
