Hardcover. Threshold Books / Sotheby Parke Bernet, 1973, 1st edn. in laminated pictorial dust jacket in near-mint condition, with minor abrasion;ochre cloth boards in mint condition; 288pp in mint condition with 97 illustrations of exhibits and numerous photographs of the museums listed. There was a time when museums and art galleries were the preserve mainly of scholars, students and knowledgeable amateurs. The very word 'museum' had a stuffy connotation, conjuring up visions of marble busts and rows of broken pots in ill-lit rooms. But during the past two decades a great deal has changed. Thanks to a new generation of imaginative curators and directors, there has been a drastic clear-out of museum clutter; a new emphasis on space, light and display; a desire to attract the public rather than to regard them as tiresome intruders in an esoteric world. Along with this new attitude - indeed contributing to it - has been the growth of art programmes on television: revealing the world's treasures to a huge and interested audience, with attention focussed not only on captive works of art, but on those changing hands in the international sale rooms. THE WORLD MUSEUMS GUIDE is the first book of its kind produced to meet the needs of this new museum-going public, as well as of students and experienced art-lovers the world over. And since nowadays more and more people are on the move, it has been designed particularly with travellers in mind. It provides worldwide coverage, so that no matter where you go, you will find something here to interest you. It gives emphasis to the museums and galleries as well as to their collections. Many of the buildings are works of art in themselves, and their spacious gardens and courtyards are so often places of tranquillity in the midst of city turmoil. It lists the museums' and galleries' own selections of their outstanding treasures. If you only have an hour or two to spare, this is an invaluable shortcut to sightseeing and ensures that you will not waste a moment of your time but will be able to make straight for the pick of the collections. It includes all the practical information you need to know: how to get there, opening times, admission fees, amenities, what you can buy, guides, lectures, and many other details. 9x4½in

Paperback. Kenneth Mason, 1972; 1st edn. trade paperback in laminated pictorial card cove rs, in mint condition; 112pp with day-by-day diary of the year's events, many illustrations. What world events was the man in the street talking about 100 years ago? Incredibly one subject was war in Vietnam. For it was in 1873 that the French invasion of the Red River Delta was launched and which eventually saw the temporary subjugation of what is now Vietnam. This is one of the fascinating facts revealed in Book of the Year 1873, a period in which Queen Victoria entered the 37th year of her reign and a time when Britain's stature stood high in the world. What else was happening at home and abroad a century ago? The defeated and exiled Emperor Louis Napoleon III died at Chislehurst and Queen Victoria visited the Empress Eugene there. The Shah of Persia's visit to England was the Royal event of the year. He was received in state by the Queen at Windsor Castle and attended a glittering state ball at Buckingham Palace. The year also saw the defeat of a tottering Gladstone government. The Prime Minister resigned after a set back in the Commons but had to 'soldier on' when Disraeli refused Queen Victoria's request to form a new administration. In 1873 Alexandra Palace was burnt to the ground a few weeks after being opened. In America General Grant entered his second term as President, and off Halifax the SS Atlantic went down with the loss of 700 lives. In South Wales 70,000 iron workers were on strike as employers demanded a 10 per cent wage cut. A century ago the Bank rate fluctuated from 4%% in June to 9% in November. The price of coal was 37s 1 d per ton, the Derby was won by Doncaster and the boat race by Cambridge. Book of the Year 1873 mirrors the life and times of a Victorian England and of a politically unstable Europe and a sometimes troubled Colonial Empire. With its detailed record of events, it is a valuable and interesting reference book. 8¼x5¾".
