These images are from two series of postcards produced between 1900 and 1910 by the photographer F.W.H Arkhurst in Grand Bassam, Ivory Coast. Arkhurst, a member of the Nzima ethnic group born in the Gold Coast , was a timber exporter who lived in Assinie and later in Grand Bassam. His studio photographs capture perfectly the then fashionable style of women’s dress along the African coast from the Niger Delta to the Ivory Coast as families grew prosperous from trading opportunities in the expanding colonial economies. Hair was swept high and adorned with gold jewellery or wrapped in cloth, tailored dress was of imported cotton prints, often with a shawl or wrap of locally woven fabrics.

A luminous loneliness: reveries from Belgian artist Léon Spilliaert, rival of Ensor and exponent of Nietzsche and PoeAlthough often associated with Belgian symbolism, Léon Spilliaert, largely self-taught as a painter, demonstrated a peculiarly individual style. He was born in the coastal city of Ostend, and created many of his most radical works there. An introvert and insomniac who suffered from poor health as a youth, Spilliaert wandered the night-time streets of the North Sea resort, creating mysterious and highly atmospheric depictions of its dark docks, beaches and promenades. He drew influence from such painters as Odilon Redon and James Abbott McNeill Whistler as well as the writers Edgar Allan Poe and Friedrich Nietzsche; his visual explorations of the self and potent images of solitude also align him with European modernists such as Edvard Munch and Vilhelm Hammershøi. This book brings together more than 100 works from international public and private collections across Belgium, France and the US, including a series of haunting self-portraits that Spilliaert created in his twenties. Various authors, among them the scholar behind the artist's catalogue raisonné, discuss the artist's singular approach and put his career in context alongside that of his more famous compatriot and contemporary James Ensor. Acclaimed Belgian painter Luc Tuymans, in many ways the heir to Spilliaert's legacy, provides a foreword. Léon Spilliaert (1881-1946) was born in Ostend and moved to Brussels at the age of 20. He lived and worked between the two cities for the rest of his life. From 1903 to 1904 he worked for Edmond Deman in Brussels, a publisher of symbolist writers, whose work Spilliaert was to illustrate; that same year he stayed in Paris, where he discovered the work of Munch and Toulouse-Lautrec, whose influences he acknowledged.

Capturing the serene allure of the Silver Sands of Morar, this enchanting illustration offers a visual escape to one of Scotland's most picturesque coastal landscapes. Exquisitely presented in an Art Nouveau style, the piece combines flowing natural forms with the stylistic elements of this distinctive period. The delicate interplay of colours and shapes invites the viewer to traverse the smooth, white sands that lead to the vibrant azure of the waters juxtaposed against a serene sky. In the foreground, a lush assembly of flora graces the composition, featuring elegant white poppies, their opalescent petals unfolding to reveal golden hearts. Sprinklings of pink clover-like blossoms, verdant grasses, and slender leaves create an organic tapestry of greenery, providing a rich contrast to the subtle hues of the shoreline. The scene is framed by meticulously detailed rocks, their geometric formations suggesting solidity and permanence amidst the gentle transience of the beach's natural beauty. Towards the horizon, majestic rolling hillocks rise beneath a tranquil sky, their silhouettes softened by distance and atmospheric perspective. The island on the horizon stands as a silent sentinel, anchoring the composition and embracing the spirit of the Scottish Isles. This beguiling print from our 'Scottish Beaches' collection offers both an homage to the elegance of Art Nouveau and a celebration of Scotland's coastal majesty. Whether one wishes to bring a breath of Highland air into their home or to gift a fragment of tranquillity to a loved one, this piece will surely enchant any space with its timeless grace and poetic representation of nature's splendour.

No these aren’t the homes of mutant sea creatures or geographic oddities forged from centuries of tidal currents, they’re sandcastles built by a Massachusetts man who goes by Sandcastlematt. Using found objects like vines, plywood, and other junk he creates a sturdy framework to which he applies the classic drip method sandcastle technique resulting in these strange temporary structures that look like contemporary land art pieces. One of Matt’s sandcastles recently made the rounds in a viral meme suggesting his work was the result of lightning striking sand, but Scientific American debunked it. More

A Valentine’s Day gift guide from someone whose expressed love language is gift-giving. Understanding your love languages—how you give and receive love—and how those you love (romantically and platonically) is hardly the be-all-end-all to nurturing successful relationships, but it’s certainly a step toward nourishing them. I’m no expert (there’s a book on that), but I’ve been told that gift-giving is one of my fortes. Who am I to ignore the obviously unbiased opinion of recipients of gifts, from me? Relationship advice is difficult to offer when you’re navigating a long-distance situation (perhaps not so gracefully, but luckily, my partner is patient), but what I can offer are a few ideas on what to gift your Valentine. Friend, family, lover, whoever you want to shower with affection in one week’s time, or even better—any time and always. Words of Affirmation If verbally articulating the sentiments is difficult or feels disingenuous (it won’t, if it’s not), write to them. Write a love letter, pen an inscription on the first page of a book that reminds you of them, leave a series of rose-colored sticky notes on all the things they touch throughout their daily routine. Remind them of how wonderful, powerful, exquisite,…
