The innovative paper engineering of an overlooked Czech artist is currently filling the second floor gallery of the Grolier Club.

This clever tale is perfect for bibliophilic families. Twelve-year-old Emily is eager to explore her new city when her family moves to San Francisco. The city is home to her literary idol, Garrison Griswold, an iconic publisher and puzzle-creator. Garrison is scheduled to release a new version of his popular online creation, Book Scavenger, when he falls mysteriously into a coma. Emily teams up with a new friend to uncover the secrets of Griswold’s new game. As with many middle grade novels, there’s a group of nefarious adults chasing after the young adventurers. This novel will appeal to anyone who would eagerly partake in a literary scavenger hunt in which players must solve puzzles to find hidden books.

Ces travestis étaient destinés à des ballets. Les gravures sont signées de A. Degmeier, P. F. Engelbrecht, C. F. Hörmann, Kösler, J. F. Schmit, J. Stelzer.Martin Engelbrecht graveur, né à Augsbourg en 1684, mort dans la même ville en 1756 est le frère de Christian Engelbrecht. Il illustra comme lui de nombreuses ?uvres. On cite parmi celles-ci : La guerre de succession espagnole, et Les Architectes princiers, de P. Decker. Il exécuta également 92 vues de Venise et 192 gravures rocaille illustrant des hommes et des femmes habillés avec les outils de leur profession. Cette suite célèbre créée il y a près de trois siècles, déjà fort rare à l'origine en coloris de l'époque, se raréfia considérablement au cours des siècles suivants devant l'engouement pour cette ?uvre d'exception qui rappelait les métiers de Larmessin réalisés peu auparavant. Depuis le XIXe siècle, les amateurs ont dû s'habituer à collectionner ces estampes à l'unité et à les faire encadrer. Même réduites à l'unité, elles tendent à disparaître des marchés. Présenter un tel ensemble de 84 estampes en coloris d'époque et en ce début XXIe siècle est un bonheur bibliophilique.17,18, 21, 22, 30, 41, 42, 45, 46, 57-59, 61,69, 73,74, 79,80, 101, 102 /// A. V.

The engravings are signed by A. Degmeier, P. F. Engelbrecht, C. F. Hörmann, Kösler, J. F. Schmit, J. Stelzer.Martin Engelbrecht engraver, born in Augsburg in 1684, died in the same city in 1756 , is the brother of Christian Engelbrecht. He illustrated like him numerous works. Among these are : La guerre de succession espagnole, and Les Architectes princiers, by P. Decker. He also executed 92 views of Venice and 192 rocaille engravings representing men and women dressed with the tools of their profession. This famous set, created almost three centuries ago, was already very rare in contemporary coloring at its time of publication, and became even rarer during the following centuries because of the passion for this exceptional work that reminded the professions of Larmessin executed shortly before. Since the 19th century, amateurs had to get used to collect these engravings per unit and to have them framed. Even reduced to the unit, they tend to disappear from the market. To present such a set of 84 engravings in contemporary coloring nowadays at the beginning of the 21th century is a bibliophilic privilege. 17,18, 21, 22, 30, 41, 42, 45, 46, 57-59, 61,69, 73,74, 79,80, 101, 102, 137, 138, 157-164, 175, 176, 180-184 u, 187-189, sowie im Album montiert 13, 25, 26, 31-34, 43, 44, 47, 48, 51, 52, - Assemblage nouveau des Manouvriers habilles ?
