This book tells the stories of several antique boxes that, like the author, were born in foreign places and have spent long lives traveling through time and space. We hear from the ghosts of their original owners, long dead, and also the voices of the boxes still alive, refreshed from careful restoration and living in America.
Dans ce livre Jean-Claude Chesneau a regroupé tous les poèmes de sa maman, Marie-Thérèse Chesneau-Christel décédée en 2001. Elle assemblait et berçait les mots jusqu'à ce qu'ils chantent. La Poésie était son plaisir. Vers après vers, elle s'exprimait avec passion et ses états d'âme nous transportaient d'émotions. Dans ce livre de poèmes, nous découvrons son bonheur d'écrire, de jouer et de peindre les tableaux de sa vie. Par ces témoignages de sourires imbriqués de larmes, elle crée l'exception. Au-delà des mots, le poète passe de la joie à la tristesse, de la condamnation à la supplique, de la vie à la mort. Parfois vindicative, tantôt complice, Marie-Thérèse Christel raconte son vivant du rêve au possible, avec foi et exaltation Tout est tellement vrai, qu'elle nous emporte irrésistiblement...Marie-Thérèse Chesneau, dite "Christel", est une poétesse française, née le 17 décembre 1918 à Orléans et décédée le 26 novembre 2001 à Saran (Loiret). Elle a écrit plus de 200 poèmes dont les publications ont été récompensées par des médias régionaux et nationaux. Présidente (1976-1977), co-fondatrice du Groupe Poétique "François Villon", siège à Fleury-les-Aubrais (près d'Orléans). Fondatrice du Prix de Poésie Classique "Charles Péguy" et membre de la "Société des Poètes Français".
A glorious trove of miniature art across eras and mediums-from ancient Egypt to the present, from netsuke to medieval shrinesIntricate and appealing, curious and uncanny, miniature works of art exert surprising power. Over thousands of years and across cultures, artists and artisans have created small objects for many purposes: tiny gold amulets of ancient Egyptian gods to protect the wearer; portable European medieval shrines made of precious materials to hold the relics of saints; English and American miniature painted portraits to keep loved ones close; Dutch dollhouse furnishings to display the maker's skill and the owner's social standing; pocket-size tools and globes from the age of exploration; Japanese netsuke carved in the shape of auspicious animals; and everyday objects transformed into statement jewelry by contemporary makers. Tiny Treasures looks closely at more than 75 fascinating miniature objects from across the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, exploring their meaning and purpose along with their often dazzling workmanship, and showing that the human impulse to create on a small scale can produce compelling masterpieces.

A photographic reverie of lost histories and forgotten North American landscapesThis compelling, 464-page photobook presents an intuitive selection of images extracted from a collection of photographic postcards mostly produced in the early part of the last century and largely from North America. Fragmented images combine to elicit memories from forgotten histories and encourage the reader to conjure stories of past endeavor and adventures.Begun in the early months of the pandemic, the book expresses the vision of its editor, David Thomson. He writes of his approach: "Juxtapositions took shape. Intuition reigned. The play of natural light struck hard. The chiaroscuro of 'plein air' landscape remained a strand beneath. The countenances within the compositions ran a gamut of emotion. A sense of bewilderment was coupled by wonderment; the nature of people and their ways of being."
