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.

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.

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.

Christmas Markets in Copenhagen
is first of all the market in the old Tivoli Gardens opened in 1843.
It is the reverse situation - an
amusement park with a Christmas Market and not the other way round.
There are many other Christmas Markets and Christmas activities,
but nothing beats Tivoli.

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:

Utagawa Hiroshige's two Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series, 1852 and 1858, are both a copy act and in themselves innovative artistic endeavors.

Katsushika Hokusai published his famous series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji in 1830-1832 and it influenced Hiroshige tremendously to do his own series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series 1852, and 1858 which we deal with here.

Hiroshige shifted to the vertical portrait format with novel and interesting results. It is in the same vertical format for landscapes that Hiroshige used in his innovative series Hundred Famous Views of Edo created with Eisen in 1835 - 1842

It is possible to travel to see the same sites today and enjoy the views of Mt Fuji, which are still very important to the Japanese.
