Delphi Collected Works of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (Illustrated) by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec Pdf

A leading exponent of the French Post-Impressionists, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec observed and painted with great psychological insight the personalities and extraordinary characters of Parisian nightlife of the late nineteenth century. He was an exceptionally talented draughtsman, whose works conjure an unbridled sense of dynamism, propelled by his use of free-flowing and expressive line. Unlike van Gogh, Munch and Gauguin, his works never explore his own feelings and emotions, but those that are being conveyed from outside — from the subjects themselves, offering a unique voice in the development of modern art. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Lautrec’s collected works in beautiful detail, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Delphi Collected Works of Alexis de Tocqueville (Illustrated) by Alexis de Tocqueville Pdf

Alexis de Tocqueville was a French nineteenth century political philosopher and historian. His landmark work ‘Democracy in America’ (1840) analyses the improved living standards and social conditions of individuals as well as their relationship to the market and state in Western societies. The treatise won Tocqueville an immediate reputation as an esteemed political scientist. In later years, he turned to the subject of the French Revolution and, after years of research, he published ‘The Old Regime and the Revolution’, exploring French society before the French Revolution, the so-called “Ancien Régime”, while investigating the forces that led to the 1789 Revolution. The book is now generally considered one of the major early historical works on the subject, which expands on Tocqueville’s main theory about the Revolution — the theory of continuity. This eBook presents Tocqueville’s collected (almost complete) works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
