Bronze Coins of Eastern Mount Ossa in the Thessalian Perioikic Region of Magnesia. Homolion, Eureai, Eurymenai, and Meliboia
, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, xxviii + 232 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Illustrations:226 b/w, 7 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9780897223959.
Summary This monograph examines the Late Classical and Hellenistic bronze coinages of five mints in the Thessalian perioikic region of Magnesia. At the core of this work lies a new die-study of the coins produced by the strategically and economically important coastal cities of Homolion and Meliboia as well as the lesser-known mints of Eureai, Eurymenai, and Rhizous. Combining this die-study with a close examination of the cities' topographical context in a border region between Thessaly and Macedon and drawing on archaeological data from Magnesia and beyond, the monograph addresses key questions concerning the chronology, denominations, and circulation patterns of the bronze issues minted on eastern Mount Ossa. This analysis not only throws new light on coin production in Late Classical and Hellenistic Magnesia, but also allows a discussion of the possible military and non-military functions of the region's different bronze issues. Placing the coins of Eureai, Eurymenai, Homolion, Meliboia, and Rhizous in their wider context, this monograph furthermore addresses broader issues in the history of Thessalian coinage. In particular, the monograph's regional approach offers an unusual opportunity to examine to what extent Thessaly's Late Classical and Hellenistic civic coins were genuinely local in design, production, and function. The monograph thus both explores the coins of Mount Ossa and contributes towards a better understanding of the introduction and development of bronze coinages in the wider Thessalian region and beyond.

Goya. The Complete Prints, complete collection of his 287 etchings and lithographs,
, Taschen, 2025 Hardcover in slipcase, XL, 24.3 x 30.4 cm, 3.78 kg, 600 pages, Multilingual (English, French, German). *NEW. ISBN 9783836581516.
The Soul of Spain, The entirety of the artist?s etchings and lithographs collected in one volume; With acute powers of observation and artistic innovation, Francisco de Goya captured the soul of the Spanish nation in turmoil, around the dawn of the 19th century. In this complete collection of his 287 etchings and lithographs, we see into the mind of an artist unafraid to navigate the depths of human folly, hypocrisy, violence, and power. Francisco de Goya was one of the most innovative peintre-graveurs of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, his etchings and lithographs masterpieces of modern printmaking. Trained in Spain and Italy, and appointed First Court Painter to Charles IV early in his career, he brought the sensibilities of the Enlightenment into uneasy dialogue with the brutal realities of his time. Whether working in single sheets, like the harrowing The Garrotted Man or the sublime Seated Giant, or across his celebrated series?the satirical Caprichos, the unflinching Desastres de la Guerra, the dynamic Tauromaquia, and the nightmarish Disparates?Goya chronicled both the spirit and the shadows of a world in upheaval, where the individual was often crushed by violence, superstition, or power. These weren?t just reflections on Spanish society. They were indictments, meditations, and warnings, etched in copperplates. This landmark collection of 287 etchings and lithographs gathers Goya?s complete printed ?uvre, including editions produced under his direct supervision, as well as rare state proofs from unpublished series, giving uncommon insight into his restless experimentation and meticulous control over the printmaking process. With a detailed commentary on each image and commanding essays by José Manuel Matilla and Anna Reuter, this volume is the culmination of more than two centuries of scholarly research, and is a searing visual narrative. Goya did not simply depict his world. He dissected it, laying bare the eternal tensions between reason and madness, justice and cruelty, hope and despair.
Imagining the Miraculous: Miraculous Images of the Virgin Mary in French Illuminated Manuscripts, ca. 1250-ca. 1450
, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xvii + 194 pages, Size:205 x 255 mm, Illustrations:94 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9780888442154.
Summary This is not a book about miraculous images of the Virgin Mary (be they icons, sculptures, altarpieces, or reliquaries) but about their representations in French illuminated manuscripts from ca. 1250 to ca. 1450. Most of these depictions of the Virgin Mary cannot be identified even tangentially with particular surviving images (such as the Virgins of Rocamadour, Soissons, Chartres, and Laon). Rather, these illustrations point to the ubiquity of local miraculous Marian images in devotional practices from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century in French-speaking regions. This book analyzes depictions of material images and the animated miracles they perform, and traces their evolution from the earliest narratives of Marian miracles written in Old French to texts and images produced at the Burgundian court of the late Middle Ages. Beginning with the most extensive compilation of Gautier de Coinci's Miracles de Nostre Dame, the study then examines lesser-known anonymous works such as the Vie des Pères and encyclopedic collections including the French version of Vincent of Beauvais' Speculum historiale and the Ci nous dit, as well as a theatrical production of the Miracles de Nostre Dame par personnages, before concluding with the prose rendering of the Miracles by Jean Miélot. Imagining the Miraculous explores the ways in which these works depict physical images, such as panel paintings and sculptures, on the manuscript page. Each chapter provides a detailed iconographical analysis of the miniatures and the diverse techniques of visual narrative they harness, serving also to show how attentive reading of their reception can help us understand how the miniatures themselves might have led viewers to imagine the miraculous moment when an image comes to life.
FRANS HALS : Oog in oog met Rembrandt, Rubens en Titiaan
, Nai010 Uitgevers/Publishers 2013, 2013 Softcover, 160 pagina's, Nederlands, 285 x 235 mm, boek in prima staat, met veel illustraties in kleur, . ISBN 9789462080522.
2013 is uitgeroepen tot Frans Hals Jaar. Het is dan precies 100 jaar geleden dat het Frans Hals Museum zijn deuren opende. De belangrijkste tentoonstelling in dit jubileumjaar is 'Frans Hals. Oog in oog met Rembrandt, Rubens en Titiaan', waarin sleutelstukken van Frans Hals worden gepresenteerd te midden van schilderijen van beroemde collega's onder wie Titiaan, Rembrandt, Van Dyck, Jordaens en Rubens. In de gelijknamige publicatie worden alle werken uit de tentoonstelling zij aan zij gepresenteerd, zodat de lezer de meesterwerken kan vergelijken en kan zien hoe de kunstenaars elkaar inspireerden. Deze bijzondere confrontaties van meesterschilders zijn essentieel om zeventiende-eeuwse kunst te begrijpen. Beroemde schilders maakten hun werken immers vaak in reactie op elkaar, met de bedoeling de ander te overtreffen en iets bijzonders neer te zetten. Internationale specialisten werpen een nieuw licht op Hals' virtuositeit, zijn rol in de zeventiende eeuw en zijn artistieke relatie met zijn collega's uit Antwerpen (Rubens, Van Dyck) en Amsterdam (Rembrandt).
Henricus Bitterfeld De formatione et reformatione Ordinis Fratrum Praedicatorum
, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, lvi + 117 pages, 155 x 245 mm, Latin text. *new. ISBN 9782503620961.
Henry Bitterfeld?s De formatione et reformatione Ordinis Fratrum Praedicatorum was the first work of its kind written in support of the Observant Reform of the Dominican Order, which took off in the late fourteenth century. It was probably composed around 1388-1389 at the request of the Order?s Master General, Raymond of Capua, who formally launched the reform in 1390. The treatise is organized into three parts: first, the principles of religious life in general; second, the causes of the crisis within the Order of Preachers; and third, the remedies by which it might be resolved. It concludes with a commentary on the prologue to the Dominican Constitutions. Bitterfeld?s work survives in four manuscript copies, along with three distinct medieval abridgements. Taken together, these testify not only to the reception of the text itself but also to the spread of Observant Reform ideals both within and beyond the Dominican Order.
Discovery of the Individual Post-Chalcedonian Christological Debates and the Dawn of Scholasticism in Early-Byzantine Thought
, , 2026 Paperback, 664 p., 156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English. *New . ISBN 9782503618333.
In the central chapters of this book, Marcin Podbielski and Anna Zhyrkova examine the work of John the Grammarian, Leontius of Byzantium, and Leontius of Jerusalem, showing how, in their writings, a philosophical innovation only associated significantly later with Medieval Latin discourse was brought into existence and clearly formulated: the discovery of the individual, and of the problem of individuation. This discovery, expressed in terms of a radically existential conceptualization of the hypostasis of Christ, as well as of hypostases of created beings, is discussed in counterpoint to the proposals of John Philoponus and Boethius, and also as synthesized, codified and preserved by Maximus the Confessor and John Damascene. Such a diverse group of five early-Byzantine authors, animated by a shared concern to preserve and clarify the Christological doctrine of Chalcedon, resorted to speculative philosophy to create a conceptual vehicle for the Christian doctrine of there being one Christ both truly divine and truly human. Their notion of ?hypostasis? came to designate the subject of natures, existent in its own right and exhibiting all the hallmarks of individuality, found in later Medieval investigations. An inquiry into the philosophical and theological background of this discovery, including a comprehensive historical reconstruction of the concept of hypostasis, makes it possible to show the philosophical and theological novelty of the authors studied, which consists also in their creating a properly Christian approach to philosophical speculation that foreshadows Scholasticism and can be considered a kind of Proto-Scholasticism. The book concludes with an exploration of the philosophical import of the discovery and the model of Christian philosophy it furnishes.

Kati Heck.
, Hatje Cantz, 2016 Hardcover. 29 x 24,7 cm,144 pages , Quadrichromie, Text in English / German *New book! ISBN 9783775741316.
German Expressionism and New Objectivity shine forth in the paintings by Kati Heck (*1979 in Düsseldorf). Her monumental paintings impress viewers with their humorous blend of styles, consisting of photorealistic figures together with graphic elements. Some sections of the collage-like works are meticulously painted in, while others are quickly executed. Like Robert Rauschenberg, Heck joins nontraditional materials and everyday objects to develop highly unusual pictorial creations. ?She clearly, convincingly, and permanently questions the art of painting,? says Jan Hoet about her oeuvre. The volume on Kati Heck focuses primarily on the painting of one of the most interesting aspiring artists of today.
Kati Heck. (Signed with original drawing)
, Hannibal, 2016 Gebonden, Hardcover. 29 x 24,7 cm,144 bladzijden, Quadrichromie,Tweetalige editie Nederlands-Frans. Met handtekening en tekeningetje van Kati Heck. . ISBN 9789492081544.
Kati Heck wordt beschouwd als een erfgename van het Duitse expressionisme. Haar werk doet denken aan de bars, dansers en acteurs van Otto Dix en George Grosz, net als aan de oude meesters. Ze synthetiseert stijlen en is net zo goed een abstracte expressionist als een realist. Delen van haar schilderijen zijn minutieus weergegeven op gestikte doeken, met een unieke virtuositeit en acute aandacht voor detail, terwijl andere delen abstracter weergegeven of zelfs gebeeldhouwd worden. De manier waarop ze niet-traditionele materialen en alledaagse objecten in innovatieve en eigenzinnige combinaties verwerkt, herinnert aan Robert Rauschenberg. Hecks portretten belichamen een diepe, overtuigende en sociale visie, en zijn tegelijk ondoorgrondelijk persoonlijk. De weergegeven onderwerpen zijn meer dan enkel acteurs, het zijn meestal zelfportretten en personen uit haar directe omgeving. Haar werk werd onlangs geexposeerd in CAC Malaga en Mary Boone Gallery New York, en wordt de komende maanden getoond in Expo Chicago en het Antwerpse M HKA. Met tekstbijdragen van onder meer Ann Demeester (Frans Hals Museum/De Hallen Haarlem) en wijlen Jan Hoet, een verhaal door Woody Allen en een gesprek met Luc Tuymans.

Elles sont pratiquement inconnues de la plupart des amateurs d'art: les illustrations de Leon Spilliaert (1881-1946) dans des editions de l'oeuvre d'ecrivains belges comme Emile Verhaeren, Maurice Maeterlinck, Franz Hellens, Paul Neuhuys et bien d'autres. Spilliaert a illustre leurs recueils de poesie et pieces de theatre, et meme un livre pour enfants, de dessins a l'encre de Chine et a l'aquarelle, ou il a laisse libre cours a son inspiration dans sa visualisation de l'univers onirique des auteurs. Ce volet foisonnant de son art est enfin devoile au public par la specialiste de Spilliaert, Anne Adriaens-Pannier. L'ouvrage accompagne l'exposition Le reve des autres a La Maison Spilliaert a Ostende (du 19 novembre 2017 au 2 avril 2018), ou sont reunies les editions en question, rehaussees de dessins originaux ou d'illustrations imprimees, et des oeuvres autonomes de l'artiste en rapport avec son travail d'illustrateur. Les pieces exposees, issues de collections publiques et particulieres, presentent pour la premiere fois - et probablement la seule - un panorama complet des creations de Spilliaert inspirees de la litterature.
LÉON SPILLIAERT. DE DROOM VAN ANDEREN
, Van de Wiele, hardcover, 290 x 215 mm, 240 pagina's, doorlopend illustraties NL editie. *nieuwstaat. ISBN 9789076297712.
Bij de meeste kunstliefhebbers zijn ze vrijwel onbekend: de illustraties van Léon Spilliaert (1881-1946) in uitgaven van het werk van Belgische schrijvers als Emile Verhaeren, Maurice Maeterlinck, Franz Hellens, Paul Neuhuys en vele anderen. Spilliaert illustreerde hun dichtbundels en theaterstukken, en zelfs een kinderboek, met tekeningen in Oost-Indische inkt en aquarelverf, of liet zijn inspiratie de vrije loop bij het visualiseren van de droomwereld van de auteurs. Dit rijke deelgebied van zijn kunst wordt door Spilliaertspecialiste Anne Adriaens-Pannier eindelijk voor het publiek ontsloten. Dit boek begeleidt de tentoonstelling De droom van anderen in Het Spilliaert Huis in Oostende (van 19 november 2017 t.e.m. 2 april 2018), waar de uitgaven met originele tekeningen of gedrukte illustraties en aanverwante autonome werken samen te zien zijn. De stukken, uit openbare en particuliere collecties, bieden voor het eerst, en waarschijnlijk eenmalig, een volledig beeld van Spilliaerts literair geïnspireerde creaties.

, Réunion des Musées, , 2020 Hardcover- Couverture reliee 208 pages, 130 Illustrations, 29x23cm.Texte en Francais Exhibition catalogue. ISBN 9782711875276.
Léon Spilliaert est considéré comme l'un des peintres belges les plus importants, à côté de R. Magritte, J. Ensor, P. Delvaux.... Pourtant, il est moins connu... Homme des solitudes inquiétantes, des perspectives infinies, Spilliaert (1881-1946) surprend, déroute par des ?uvres inclassables, inventant un symbolisme singulier de la nuit intérieure. Spilliaert est né à Oostende. Ses promenades nocturnes dans la ville déserte seront une source d'inspiration pour son oeuvre. Il est presque entièrement autodidacte. Il est influencé par les courants artistiques de la fin de siècle : le symbolisme et l'expressionnisme. Spilliaert est un explorateur de l'inconscient et des angoisses existentielles au moment où les sciences humaines avancent dans la compréhension de la psyché. Il est passionné par Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Chateaubriand et Lautréamont. Le catalogue se concentre sur les années 1896 à 1919, les plus intenses dans la carrière de l'artiste, et présente ses oeuvres les plus radicales. Exposition du 13 octobre 2020 au 10 janvier 2021 au Musée d'Orsay, à Paris. Léon Spilliaert: Lumière et solitude (Musée d'Orsay & Grand Palais) aantalIn winkelwagen Léon Spilliaert is considered to be one of the most important Belgian painters, alongside R. Magritte, J. Ensor, P. Delvaux?. However, he is less well known? A man of disquieting solitudes and infinite perspectives, Spilliaert (1881-1946) surprised and disconcerted by unclassifiable works, inventing a singular symbolism of the inner night. Spilliaert was born in Oostende. His night walks in the deserted city were a source of inspiration for his work. He is almost entirely self-taught. It is influenced by the artistic currents of the end of the century: symbolism and expressionism. Spilliaert is an explorer of the unconscious and existential anxieties at a time when the human sciences are advancing in their understanding of the psyche. He is passionate about Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Chateaubriand and Lautréamont. The catalogue focuses on the years 1896 to 1919, the most intense years in the artist?s career, and presents his most radical works. Exhibition from October 13, 2020 to January 10, 2021 at the Musée d?Orsay. IN FRENCH!
