Una guerra corta pero clave en la Historia de Europa que desembocará en la caída de un régimen, aparición de una nueva y poderosa nación y inicio del camino hacia la Gran Guerra.
En un aislado pueblo de pescadores en la costa danesa, la comunidad practica, en el sentido más estricto, los principios religiosos que el pastor ha predicado durante años. Cuando éste muere, sus dos hijas continúan adelante con su obra y su palabra. En 1871, durante la guerra franco-prusiana, una joven francesa encuentra refugio en el austero hogar de las dos hermanas. Su llegada al pueblo representa la aparición del extraño en el paraíso. A pesar de que la joven convive durante catorce años con ellos, los fieles adeptos a la palabra de dios la consideran un ente ajeno a la gracia divina. Un día, babette desea agradecer su hospitalidad ofreciéndoles un banquete en honor del difunto padre... El libro está ilustrado por noemí villamuza. -al hacer de la literatura un viaje hacia lo imaginario, la frágil baronesa de rungstedlund no rehuía responsabilidad moral alguna. Por el contrario, contribuía —distrayendo, hechizando, divirtiendo— a que los seres humanos aplacaran una necesidad tan antigua como la de comer y adornarse: el hambre de irrealidad.- mario vargas llosa

. True to my word, here are My 10 Can't do without-paintings-this time its raining Men. Would that I-could own them, I hope I would be ready to share them with the world! Dosso Dossi's work is beautiful-enigmatic, the artist was noted for his very personal-mysterious paintings. The sitter has actually been described by historians as a young girl-that Dossi could paint such a work makes the painting and painter-forever fascinating and seductive. Dosso Dossi Portrait of a Young Man holding a Dog and a Cat (10" x 12" approx.) c. 1512-1540 artist's death Dossi was an admirer of the great Renaissance master Giorgione. Giorgione's early death at around 30 years of age and the lasting effect of his work is undeniable. The face in this portrait-as in Dossi's -of knowing-of innocence-one that we want to know. These two painters were painting way over my head. Still so many questions about their work and their lives -unanswered. things we want to know. Giorgione Portrait of young man (19" x 23") c.1504 his painting The Tempest may be my absolute favorite singular painting This Jan Van Eyck portrait is thought to be a self portrait. Why this painting? It's the red turban. Jan Van Eyck possibly a self portrait Portrait of a Man in Turban (about 8" x 10") c. 1433 The other Italian of the ten-the beautiful Raphael-painting the beautiful Altoviti-his painting can be seen in the National Gallery in Washington. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't he beautiful? Does there have to be more? Raphael Bindo Altoviti (23" x 17") c. 1515 Reynolds painted himself many times-I love this work. In this self portrait Reynolds looks firmly out at us-at his subject. His youth-no hindrance to his confidence-only the sun seems to slow him down. Reynolds Self Portrait (25" x 29") c. 1747-1749 The beautiful Courbet-the French Realist enjoyed painting himself too.Here with his dog- he pauses to observe us-no lack of self confidence. It was much the same in his life, he was beloved-but not without having his work derided by critics who did not want to see what he saw...The way things really are. Courbet Self Portrait with a Black Dog c. 1841 I think I'm a little in love with Lord Battersea-and it's not just the dog. Frederick Sandys Portrait of Cyril Flower, Lord Battersea (20" x 25") c.1872 an equally dashing portrait of Battersea by Sandys would suffice Another of Sargent's great and controversial works-Dr. Pozzi At Home-who was he waiting for? The fiery canvas isn't hot enough to extinguish the Doctor's bedside manners. Sargent Dr. Pozzi At Home (79" x 40") c.1881 No fantasy collection would be complete without Picasso. From his Blue Period-the painter paints himself again. Picasso Self Portrait (24" x 32" approx) c. 1902 Egon Schiele -protege of Klimt,painted this portrait when he was 19 years old. Young-yet considering Schiele was only 28 when he died-his work was perhaps at its zenith. Though this portrait lacks some of Schiele's characteristic distortion and perhaps is less appealing to Schiele followers- it is infinitely beautiful. His ability to capture artist Peschka's solitude- and not disrupt it-with his brilliant paints of coal black -fragile lavender, confetti green and dazzling Klimt-like pattern mesmerizes. Peschka's hands emerge from Schiele's exercise with great tenderness and reverence. Perhaps Schiele needed only his 28 years-this when he was 19. Schiele Anton Peschka (39" x 43") c. 1909 Such a diverse collection with the exception of the 3 Italians-those Renaissance boys-4- including the elder Van Eyck of Flanders. The Renaissance-a period I could easily select 10 paintings from-yet there is no Titian's Man with A Glove, no Masaccio profile, no macho Veronese, no menacing Bosch. That would be too easy. Branching out- I've always admired the work of the handsome Frenchman Courbet and the figures of Schiele -easily an equal of Klimt. No collection would be complete without Sargent who captured an age of excess-but with faces that still are full of life nor complete without the mastery of Picasso-Master of them all. As I've noted-the Sandys painting of Battersea is just because he may be my ideal Man-alas there was no 2nd Baron of Battersea-his marriage to Constance de Rothschild was childless.
