Description: Book Description A passion for photography and photo-history drove Parisa Damandan to painstakingly seek and accumulate an impressive collection of portrait photographs from Isfahan, Iran. A native Isfahani herself, Damandan followed every lead and knocked on every door to find the pioneer studio photographers of the city. Covering the period of 1920-50, Portrait Photographs from Isfahan , co-published with the Prince Claud Fund Library, is a visual document of a nation in transition to modernity, a matter explored and expounded upon by the accompanying articles. The man off the street with a fashionable chapeau and a three-piece suit or with the traditional turban and cloak, posing with friends, wife or children, recently emancipated women standing unveiled and confident, and Polish war refugees passing through the city on their trip back home after having been driven out by the Nazis, all found their way to the studio and posed for the camera.

Portrait of Johnny : The Life of John Herndon Mercer

Description: Book DescriptionAn intimate biography of the great songwriter, this is also a deeply affectionate memoir by one of Johnny Mercer’s best friends. “Moon River,” “Laura,” “Skylark,” ”That Old Black Magic,” “One for My Baby,” “Accentuate the Positive,” “Satin Doll,” “Days of Wine and Roses,” “Something’s Gotta Give”—the honor roll of Mercer’s songs is endless. Both Oscar Hammerstein II and Alan Jay Lerner called him the greatest lyricist in the English language, and he was perhaps the best-loved and certainly the best-known songwriter of his generation. But Mercer was also a complicated and private man. A scion of an important Savannah family that had lost its fortune, he became a successful Hollywood songwriter (his primary partners included Harold Arlen and Jerome Kern), a hit recording artist, and, as co-founder of Capitol Records, a… [detailed...]

Peter Lovenheim
Portrait of a Burger as a Young Calf : The Story of One Man, Two Cows, and the Feeding of a Nation

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFour years ago, journalist Peter Lovenheim was standing in a long line at McDonald’s to buy a Happy Meal for his little daughter, which would come with a much-desired Teenie Beanie Baby—either a black-and-white cow named “Daisy” or an adorable red bull named “Snort.” Finding it rather strange that young children were being offered cuddly toy cows one minute and eating the grilled remains of real ones the next, Lovenheim suddenly saw clearly the great disconnect between what we eat and our knowledge of where it comes from. Determined to understand the process by which living animals become food, Lovenheim did the only thing he could think of: He bought a calf—make that twin calves, number 7 and number 8—from the dairy farm where they were born and asked for permission to spend as much time as necessary hanging around and observing everything that happened in the lives of these farm animals.

Kaylene Johnson
Portrait of the Alaska Railroad

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn July 1923, President Warren G. Harding visited Alaska to drive in the `Golden Spike` commemorating the grand opening of the new, federally funded railroad linking Seward with Fairbanks. The Government Railroad had taken eight years andthe influence of three U.S. presidents to complete. Shortly afterward, it was renamed the Alaska Railroad. In the eighty-plus years since then, America`s northernmost railroad has remained a critical transportation link, a working train as well as a touring train that wends through some of the most fabulous country in the nation. Resplendent in blue and gold, the engines and cars of the Alaska Railroad remain disconnected from other rail lines, set apart on a track that travels north through the wilderness to a dead-end near Fairbanks, and south to a dead-end at the seaport of Seward. But, oh, what beauty lies between. In this lavishly illustrated and authoritative book, the Alaska Railroad rides in the spotlight. Through words… [detailed...]

Jorge Lewinski
Portrait of the Artist

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFor more than 30 years, from 1962 to 1995, Jorge Lewinski photographed the most important artists working in Britain, Europe, and the U.S., from Francis Bacon and Henry Moore to Carl Andre, Claes Oldenburg, Marcel Duchamp, Nikki de Saint Phalle, and Jean Tinguely. Here, over 150 of these stunning portraits, selected from his archive, show the range of his considerable output. As a teacher, Lewinski often told his students not to `look just at the face` but `always to look behind.` His images invariably show artists in their studios, giving an insight into their creative processes and working lives. Because he often returned to photograph the same artist over a number of years, these portraits catalogue not only the lives of the artists themselves but also the changing styles of art during the period. The book is an important and fascinating document of an exciting period in the history of art. AUTHOR BIO: Jorge Lewinski was born in Lwow, Poland (now… [detailed...]

F. Bowman Hastie III
Portrait of the Dog as a Young Artist: Art from Scratch, by the World`s Preeminent Canine Painter

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Dogs have frequently been the subject of paintings but rarely have they created them. Brooklyn-born Tillie is the exception. This acclaimed pooch had her first solo exhibition at a mere nine months old. Utilizing a unique color transfer technique, Tillie holds a prepared “canvas” in her mouth and trots it off to her workspace, where she dramatically applies pressure with teeth and claws in a feverish ritual of creation. The results garner high prices, slack-jawed praise, and comparisons with Jackson Pollack. Portrait of the Dog as a Young Artist profiles this pioneering talent with photographs and descriptive text by her “assistant,” F. Bowman Hastie III. Hastie recounts Tillie’s early life in Brooklyn and details her evolution from promising amateur to canine Caravaggio. The photographs portray Tillie at work, at her many gallery shows, and taking a much-needed break to play with her six new puppies. [detailed...]

Miguel Szekely, Orazio Attansio
Portrait of the Poor: An Assets-Based Approach

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Reducing poverty is the greatest challenge facing Latin American policymakers today. In the 1990s, macroeconomic reform helped put much of the region on a growth trend, yet the ranks of the poor continued to swell. Today, most countries have levels of poverty that far exceed expectations given their levels of development. Portrait of the Poor paints a whole new picture of poverty in Latin America. Low incomes are just the silhouette of the problem. Learning more about why the poor people earn less makes for a more complete portrait. This book finds the key in unequal access to education, credit and the other income-generating assets of human, physical and social capital. Evidence from case studies on Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Peru supports this finding. [detailed...]

William S. McFeely
Portrait: A Life of Thomas Eakins

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A brilliant historian`s reconstruction of the life of an American painter. Thomas Eakins, a native of Philadelphia, painted two worlds: one sure of its values?the surgeons, inventors, musicians, and athletes of his time?and another that reflected his own struggles with depression and sexual identity. In this evenhanded account of those struggles, William S. McFeely sheds new light on Eakins`s genius and on the evocative melancholy of his portraits, particularly of women, which include many of his remarkable wife, Susan McDowell Eakins. Those deeply perceptive paintings may be the greatest expressions of his art. One of America`s leading historians, McFeely has long been an interpreter of nineteenth-century American writing. A fascinating aspect of this narrative is how he brings the painter into the company of Thoreau, Melville, and Whitman, with whom Eakins formed a deep friendship. The famous painting Swimming , for example, is likened to Walden,… [detailed...]

Portraits Of An Age: Photography In Germany And Austria 1900-1938

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe process of creating a portrait involves much more than the dialogue between the photographer and his model. The visual experience shared by portrait subjects, authors, and viewers casts self-presentation and photographic interpretation into pre-existing molds. Yet, individuality and spontaneity gained significant ground in the years following the fin de siecle, when efforts to escape from dictorial rule in the late 1930s led to even greater concern with individuality. The resulting portraits document the changing image of middle-class society in Germany and Austria, while demonstrating the rise of photography as an independent force. Gradually, the refined salon portraits of such artists as Nikola Perscheid and the Atelier d`Ora gave way to the crystalline elegance of heads and faces by Trude Fleischmann, Lotte Jacobi, and Hugo Erfurth. Umbo`s extreme close-ups, Helmar Lerski`s light-modeling, and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy`s experiments radically altered the human… [detailed...]
