About The Artwork The idea for the collection "Giardino del Duca" prints was born one day while listening to David Fray's beautiful performance of a Schubert lieder in Franz Liszt's fabulous piano transcription (Liszt. 12 Lieder von Schubert, S558 / R243: No . 3. "Du bist die Ruh". David Fray) In these moving chords, I could smell the scent of the ancient roses from my dear friend Michele's garden and I saw his magnificent borzoi called Duca moving among the flowering plants with the grace only a sighthound can have…. And here! Liszt gave his interpretation of him to Schubert's songs by creating masterpieces of classical music: he took away the singing, but added his unsurpassed pianism. Why can't I also interpret the beauty of Michele's Garden using what I know how to do: photograph dogs? Indeed, a dog, THE DOG: Duke. Just as Liszt during his life transcribed about 50 of Schubert's songs, so too Michele and I begin to interpret the beauty of Duke and his Garden. I don't know if we'll get to 50 photographic portraits too, but in the meantime, here are the first ones. Of course, the "soundtrack" cannot be missing, so this time I have associated with each photograph the lieder transcribed by Liszt in my favorite performances. You can find the Playlist in my Spotify account. It is called the "Garden of the Duke". Good vision and listening!

He is one of the best known and beloved, and undeniably the most colorful of the Skagen Painters, a community of Danish and Nordic artists who lived, gathered or worked in Skagen, Denmark, especially during the final decades of the 19th century.

Kaminsky was born in Argentina to a Jewish family from Russia. In 1932, when Kaminsky was seven years old, he moved with his family to Paris, where his father worked as a tailor. In 1940, after the German invasion of France, the family house in Vire was taken by the Germans and his mother was killed by the Nazis in 1941. Aged 17, Adolfo Kaminsky entered the Resistance. At first he watched the railway station at Vire and sent messages to London about these trains. However, in 1943 his family was interned in the camp of Drancy, thanks to support from the Consul of Argentina, they were freed on 22 December 1943, and moved on to Paris. Adolfo then worked in an underground laboratory in Paris where he passed the rest of World War II forging identity papers for Jews and people sought by the Nazis. He was introduced to the network, the Resistance group, while researching a false ID for his father. This group, made up of Jewish people from the General Jewish Union was having problems removing Waterman blue ink stains from papers. Adolfo suggested they use lactic acid, and thereafter joined the group, finally becoming responsible for the chemical forgery lab. They notably had to respond to the challenge of the invention of the watermark. Kaminsky also quickly learned photogravure under a false pretext, and set up a new lab in order to create "real-false" documents. The Kaminsky Lab became the main producer of false IDs for northern France and Benelux, although ties with other clandestine groups were discontinued, each group working as a cell. He used to say: "Keep awake. The longer possible. Struggle against sleep. The calculation is easy. In one hour, I make 30 false papers. If I sleep one hour, 30 people will die." Over the course of the war, Kaminsky created documents that saved the lives of 14,000 Jews. After the Liberation of Paris in August 1944, he joined the French Army and marched to Germany. He was awarded the Médaille de la Résistance, and was engaged by the French military secret services, who entrusted him with making false IDs for spies sent behind the lines in order to investigate and detect the location of concentration camps before their dismantlement by the Nazis. https://loeildelaphotographie.com/en/adolfo-kaminsky-paris-1944-1955/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolfo_Kaminsky https://www.timesofisrael.com/the-wwii-counterfeiter-who-forged-ahead-in-the-face-of-horror/ Jacques Falck has made a documentary film about his life, Forging Identity.[12] His daughter Sarah, born in 1979, is an actress and writer who wrote a biography of her father, Adolfo Kaminsky, une vie de faussaire (Paris: Calmann-Lévy, 2009), which has been translated into Spanish, German, and most recently into English. A short film about Kaminsky entitled The Forger accompanied an online New York Times article in October 2016. The Travel Channel's show Mysteries at the Museum featured a segment on Adolfo Kaminsky in its October 12, 2017, episode. On October 29, 2017, 60 Minutes told the story of Adolfo Kaminsky.

William Wegman is a world-renowned American artist whose paintings, photographs, videos and drawings have been exhibited in museums and galleries internationally. Today he is perhaps best known for his collaborations with his longstanding muses, an ever-expanding cast of Weimaraners, for whom performing elaborate scenarios or merely posing demurely for their portraits comes as second nature. Curated in close collaboration with distinguished photography author William A. Ewing, William Wegman: Being Human is the most extensive collection of Wegman's photographic work yet to be published. The book is organized thematically, presenting a wealth of exceptional work in such a way as to highlight the versatility of Wegman's everinventive mind as he explores what it means to be human. From portraits of characters we so easily recognize - a suburban housewife, a famous actor, a nightclub singer, a golfer dressed in plaid - to imagery that toys with a wide range of visual languages, Wegman quotes freely from fashion photography, Cubism, colour theory, the tradition of the nude and the history of art itself. Essays and an interview explore Wegman's approach to his subjects and their life in the studio. With over 300 images made over the last four decades, many published here for the first time, William Wegman: Being Human will delight and engage both those who are new to Wegman's work and those who have admired his art for many years. 332 Illustrations, color

About The Artwork I like to take photographs of people "doing what comes naturally." This street photo is ideal for storytelling. People are sitting outdoors on a rainy afternoon. Are three people a family? How can you tell it is Paris and not in the U.S? What is the man telling the girl? Does he want to tell the waitress to bring the dog a cup of tea? Why does the guy on the left look so bored?
