Sidney Harold Meteyard (1868-1947) Penelope at Her Room Fine art reproduction print. Representing the story of Penelope, from Homer’s Odyssey, the painting focuses upon the figure of Penelope herself, her room and the Ionian landscape beyond. A small fleet of ships can be seen upon the horizon, hinting at the return of Odysseus, and the flame burning at the upper left of the painting is symbolic of Penelope’s enduring fidelity. The poppies in the lower left are a symbol of remembrance for her lost love, but also the source of an opiate to help Penelope to forget her grief at his prolonged absence. Their presence may also be a humorous allusion to the name Poppy sometimes being used as a nickname for Penelope. You can choose from several sizes and prices. Our prints are of the highest quality.

Odysseus & Co. erzählen die Geschichte vom hölzernen Pferd Der Kampf um Troja, die List mit dem Holzpferd und die scheinbar unendliche Irrfahrt des Odysseus – all diese Abenteuer wurden schon oft aufgeschrieben und verfilmt. Aber wer könnte sie besser erzählen als die Helden und Heldinnen selbst? Kurzweiliger als die Ilias und lustiger als Hollywood erzählen Laokoon, Kalypso, Kassandra und viele mehr die griechischen Mythen auf ihre Weise. Endlich gibt es Antworten auf die spannendsten Fragen: Wer kämpfte im Trojanischen Krieg gegeneinander? Gab es das Trojanische Pferd wirklich und wie sah es aus? Wohin führte Odysseus‘ Irrfahrt? Wer war Homer?

Ob sich beim Thema Finanzmärkte Skepsis einstellt oder Jagdfieber – dieses Buch bedient beides. Als Fondsmanager ist Georg von Wallwitz Insider. Als Mathematiker und Philosoph gönnt er sich einen gelassenen Blick auf seine Welt, die ein Spiegel ihrer Zeit ist: Er erklärt, warum die Finanzmärkte wurden, was sie sind – gefährlich, doch von hohem Unterhaltungswert. Er beschreibt auf Art komplizierte Dinge. Er zeichnet Charakterbilder der Finanzakteure, in denen man nicht nur die Leute mit den riesigen Bonuszahlungen erkennt, sondern am Ende, hoffentlich, auch – sich selbst. Nichts fehlt: Keynes und die Klassische Theorie, Glanz und Elend des Finanzparketts, langweilige Aktien, spannende Anleihen, schurkische Hedgefonds und vieles mehr, was das Herz erfreut, und auch den Geist.
