Willem Pretorius - Iewers, Erens (Afrikaans, Hardcover): Willem Pretorius - Iewers, Erens (Afrikaans, Hardcover)
1
R334 Discovery Miles 3 340 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Willem Pretorius is een van ons voorste skilders wat die Suid-Afrikaanse platteland vasvat met soortgelyke patos as Walter Meyer, aan wie alle skilders in hierdie genre hulde bring. Sy skilderye is amper foto-realisties maar inspireer tog ʼn sekere gevoel van nostalgie na ʼn verlore onskuld, na die sogenaamde goeie ou dae wat nie vir almal goed was nie. Daar is ook ʼn afstandelikheid, ʼn gebrek aan kommentaar: Die landskap spreek vir homself.

Die boek bevat kleurafdrukke, professioneel gefotografeer, van sy 50 jongste werke, ʼn goeie mengsel van sy gebruiklike onderwerpe: huise, treine, versaakte swembaddens, landskappe, ou karre en gekrokte bakkies, plattelandse winkels, huise en dorpstonele, ensovoorts.

Elke skildery is begelei deur ʼn skryfsel van ʼn bekende skrywer, musikant, digter of skilder. Dis nie ʼn beskrywing of tegniese ontleding van die skildery nie, eerder vry assosiasie, ʼn kort kortverhaal, ʼn herinneringskets. Elk is ongeveer 500 woorde en beslaan dus nie meer as een bladsy nie; die bladsy langs die skildery wat dit geïnspireer het.

Norfolk's Fragile Coast - Sidestrand to Snettisham (Hardcover): Claire Davies Norfolk's Fragile Coast - Sidestrand to Snettisham (Hardcover)
Claire Davies
R656 Discovery Miles 6 560 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Norfolk's Fragile Coast is a photographic journey from the unstable and spectacular cliffs of Sidestrand to the fossil rich beaches of East and West Runton, to bird reserves, marshes, expanses of sand, through the sailing and vacation areas of the Burnhams to the bleakness of Snettisham on the Wash. Claire Davies has captured this diversity, zooming in on the tiniest bird and out to the wild and spectacular expanses of coastline. This photographic project - mostly carried out through the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 - not only captures a constantly changing landscape with beautiful imagery - spectacular cliffs, fossil rich beaches, marshes, seascapes, birds, flora and fauna, parkland and countryside - but along with the accompanying narrative and diary notes, establishes an important record of a coast in all its variety at a moment of exceptional and unique timing.

The Forth Rail Bridge is one of the world's great engineering feats, and one of its most well-known. When it opened in 1890, the cantilevered bridge had one of the world's longest spans, at 541 metres. Its distinctive and innovative design marks it as an important milestone in bridge construction during the period when railways came to dominate long-distance land travel. Spanning the estuary of one of the country's great rivers, the Forth Bridge revolutionised travel within Scotland, and it continues to carry and freight more than 130 years after its official opening. This view of the Forth Rail Bridge features the Gresley A4 Class Pacific Plover locomotive and was painted by Terence Cuneo (1907-1996) for British Railways in 1952. Cuneo withstood gales of over 50 mph as he sketched the scene from a girder above the track.

Delphine Jamet
R441 Discovery Miles 4 410 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In this beautifully photographed book, the author has captured abandoned places in emotive form: places as dark as time; history forgotten in the folds of the subconscious mind; beauty in decay, a presentation of life open to our personal interpretations. Atmospheric scenes unfold before the light of torches, with glass crunching underfoot, complementing the unremitting sound of dripping water. Creative wall art decorations attract attention, bordering the natural and unnatural worlds with a broad range of colours and exuding micro-organisms with compelling effects. The author describes urbexing - the pursuit of images of the abandoned and ruined - as a drug, a way of life as powerful as a state of mind. This is her world - this is Perth.

A Life of Industry - The Photography of John R Hume (Hardcover): Daniel Gray A Life of Industry - The Photography of John R Hume (Hardcover)
Daniel Gray; Photographs by John R. Hume
R662 R609 Discovery Miles 6 090 Save R53 (8%) Ships in 9 - 15 working days

John R Hume is Scotland's foremost expert on industrial heritage. John's greatest passion was - and is - industry. Over the course of the 1960s, 70s and 80s, he took over 25,000 photographs of late-industrial and post-industrial Scotland. His collection is a remarkable portrait of a way of life that has now all but vanished. His drive to act as a witness to Scotland's industrial empire, and its steady disintegration, took him to every corner of the country. John's photography produces an exhaustive and objective record. Yet it also reveals remarkable and poignant glimpses of domestic life - children playing in factory ruins, high-rises emerging on the city skylines, working men and women dwarfed by the incredible scale of an already crumbling industrial infrastructure. In A Life of Industry, author Daniel Gray tells John's story, and the story of what has been lost - and preserved.

Retreat to the countryside with shepherdess Amanda Owens as she recounts stories from her life on the farm, of raising nine children and cooking beautiful, seasonal meals - complete with the recipes for you to enjoy at home. This edition of Celebrating the Seasons is updated with more heartwarming stories from the farm at Ravenseat. In the Sunday Times bestseller Celebrating the Seasons, the Yorkshire Shepherdess shares funny and charming stories about life with her family and their many four-legged charges and describes their activities at Ravenseat, from lambing and shearing in spring to haymaking in summer and feeding the flock in midwinter. She vividly evokes the famous Swaledale landscape, from the sweeping moors to rare wildflowers and elusive hares glimpsed in the field. Amanda lives in tune with nature, and her attitude to food is the same. She believes in using good, seasonal ingredients when it comes to feeding her family, and includes some of her favourite recipes here, from wild garlic lamb with hasselback potatoes to rhubarb and custard crumble cake and Yorkshire curd tart. The book also includes her Dalesman columns, published in book form for the first time and giving new insights into her life. As charming as Amanda herself, this book will delight everyone who has followed her adventures so far.

The Weekender - Singapore (Hardcover): Matthew Chen The Weekender - Singapore (Hardcover)

R703 R573 Discovery Miles 5 730 Save R130 (18%) Ships in 9 - 15 working days

The Marina Bay Sand, the Changi Jewel and the fast-paced, high-rise city are what immediately comes to one's mind about Singapore. This is 'The Weekender's' first flight into the Asia Pacific region and this issue will present Singapore in a different and more laid-back perspective than you might be used to. However, it will still showcase the iconic architecture and landmarks that juxtapose with a melting pot of diverse heritages/cultures and remnants of the city-state's colonial past. And at the same, this issue explores the blurred boundaries between the old and the new, the hardscapes and the softscapes. From starting the weekend with breakfast at a local enclave, rich in history and culture, to wandering the grounds of the UNESCO Heritage listed Botanical Gardens and then ending the day sipping a cocktail along Keong Siak Road, a trendy neighbourhood littered with eateries and bars, Matthew aspires for the book to bring about a more local and intimate experience of what the city-state has to offer for a weekend getaway or a pit-stop to explore the rest of region. Whilst the flow of the book will incorporate the weekend trajectory, the mixture of content will mean that a reader is both influenced by Matthew's imagery of the city, without explicitly having to follow a specific route but allow them to adventure at will.
