Items related to The Journeys of Casanova
Having lived in cities including Vienna, Paris, Rome, London, Berlin, St. Petersburg and Madrid, Giacomo Casanova (1725–1796) could be described as the first cosmopolitan. On his tireless jaunts through eighteenth-century Europe, he not only encountered the beautiful and erotic but also powerful figures and artists of his time. Whether Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, Frederick the Great, Johann Joachim Winckelmann, or (probably) even Mozart, Casanova knew them all. This large-format illustrated volume follows in the footsteps of the well-known libertine and couples passages from his memoirs, remarkable in so many aspects, with magnificent early photographs and charming hand-colored book illustrations. Although it was not until nearly a century later that photography's first pioneers roamed the alleys of Venice or attempted to capture the flair of Paris, these contemporary documents give an impression of the wonders that the great seducer encountered on his Grand Tour.

Originalleinen. Condition: Wie neu. 1. Aufl. [ca. 128] S. : überw. Ill. ; 49 cm Neuwertig , noch folienverpackt. Giacomo Casanova (17251798) war so etwas wie der erste Kosmopolit. Er lebte unter anderem in Wien, Paris, Rom, London, Berlin, St. Petersburg und Madrid und traf auf seinen unermüdlichen Streifzügen durch das Europa des 18. Jahrhunderts nicht nur die Schönen und Erotischen, sondern auch die Mächtigen und die Künstler seiner Zeit. Ob Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, Friedrich der Große, Johann Joachim Winckelmann oder wahrscheinlich sogar Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Casanova kannte sie alle. Der Bildband im Großformat heftet sich an die Fersen des großen Libertins und begleitet Passagen aus seinen in so vieler Hinsicht bemerkenswerten Memoiren mit prachtvollen frühen Fotografien und charmanten handkolorierten Buchillustrationen. Obschon die Pioniere der Fotografie erst ein knappes Jahrhundert nach ihm durch Venedigs Gassen streiften oder das Pariser Flair zu fassen suchten, vermitteln diese Zeitdokumente doch einen Eindruck davon, welche Wunder dem begnadeten Verführer auf seiner Grand Tour begegneten. Having lived in cities including Vienna, Paris, Rome, London, Berlin, St. Petersburg, and Madrid, Giacomo Casanova (17251796) could be described as the first cosmopolitan. On his tireless jaunts through eighteenth-century Europe, he not only encountered the beautiful and erotic but also powerful figures and artists of his time. Whether Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, Frederick the Great, Johann Joachim Winckelmann, or probably even MozartCasanova knew them all. The large-format illustrated volume follows in the footsteps of this well-known libertine and couples passages from his memoirs, remarkable in so many aspects, with magnificent early photographs and charming hand-colored book illustrations. Although it was not until nearly a century later that photography's first pioneers roamed the alleys of Venice or attempted to capture the flair of Paris, these contemporary documents give an impression of the wonders that the great seducer encountered on his Grand Tour.
