Offering a new Fine Art quality archival pigment reprint of Napoleon Sarony's photo titled "Oscar Wilde #18", 1882. This is a high quality print, unframed, approximately 7.5x10" on 8.5x11" archival paper, suitable for matting, framing and display. Napoleon Sarony (1821 – 1896) was an American lithographer and photographer. He was a highly popular and great portrait photographer, most known for his portraits of the stars of late-19th-century American theater. This portrait of writer Oscar Wilde became the subject of a U.S. Supreme Court case, Burrow-Giles Lithographic Co. v. Sarony 111 U.S. 53 (1884), in which the Court upheld the extension of copyright protection to photographs. Sarony sued Burrow-Giles after it used unauthorized lithographs of Oscar Wilde No. 18 in an advertisement, and won a judgment for $610 (the modern equivalent of just over $12,000) that was affirmed on appeal by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. Sarony later photographed the Supreme Court itself, to celebrate the centennial of the federal judiciary in 1890. Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854 – 1900) was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. Today he is remembered for his epigrams, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, his plays, and the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death.At the height of his fame and success, while his masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest (1895), was still on stage in London, Wilde had the Marquess of Queensberry prosecuted for libel. The Marquess was the father of Wilde's lover, Lord Alfred Douglas. The charge carried a penalty of up to two years in prison. The trial unearthed evidence that caused Wilde to drop his charges and led to his own arrest and trial for gross indecency with other men. After two more trials he was convicted and imprisoned for two years' hard labour. In 1897, in prison, he wrote De Profundis, which was published in 1905, a long letter which discusses his spiritual journey through his trials, forming a dark counterpoint to his earlier philosophy of pleasure. Upon his release he left immediately for France, never to return to Ireland or Britain. There he wrote his last work, The Ballad of Reading Gaol (1898), a long poem commemorating the harsh rhythms of prison life. He died destitute in Paris at the age of 46. From the Fine Art Los Angeles Collection, a unique group of fine art photos from the pioneers of photography.

Недавно обнаружила в сети видео и статью про стиль Чаплина. Для тех, кто не знает английского (а, главное, для себя) привожу ниже перевод (свой) того, о чем говорят в видео. "Сказать по правде, на протяжении большей части 20-го века, и, возможно, даже сегодня, имя Чарли…
Шел Маяковский ночью по Мясницкой и вдруг увидел золотую надпись на стекле магазина: Сказочные материалы. Это было так непонятно, что он вернулся назад, чтобы еще раз посмотреть на надпись. На стекле было написано: Смазочные материалы. [ Илья Ильф. Из записных книжек…

A young woman working as a tram conductor, Berlin, circa 1920.
Жена сразу двух мужей, которой вменяли в заслугу рождение Маяковского-поэта и в вину — смерть Маяковского-человека, Лиля Брик была одной из самых ярких и самых скандальных фигур творческой богемы в СССР. И конечно, одной из самых модных.

There are definite advantages to being Queen of the hive. Perhaps the biggest advantage is longevity. A queen bee will live several years. On average, the rest of the bees in the hive have a 6 week lifespan. The queen begins her life as a female egg...no different than a worker bee egg. At some point, her egg is singled out by the nurse (worker) bees and upon entering the larval stage is fed a substance that these workers carry in their glands....called royal jelly. This royal jelly causes the larva to develop into a larger bee and a queen is crowned. Within a couple of weeks, she leaves the hive to mate with several drones....in flight. Upon returning to the hive, she spends the rest of her days laying eggs. Meanwhile, worker bees are in attendance...doing all of the necessary household chores to maintain the Queen and her nursery. In beekeeping, it is beneficial to have the queen marked with a colored dot on her thorax. This makes the job of finding the queen much easier. Although she is larger than the rest of the bees...it is often difficult to find her amongst the other 20 or 30 thousand bees in the hive.
Сегодня продолжаем говорить о фотографах. Вообще с фотографией происходит странная штука. Это, наверное, один из немногих видов...
