21 år i kunstens vold – refleksioner over det at være kunstner er skrevet af Embla Kristine Asmussen. Hun beskriver gennem bogen sit liv som ung kunstner, omgivet af branchens glæder og sorger, og reflekterer over Kunstens tag i mennesket. Denne bog er ikke en klassisk selvbiografi. Det er nærmere en samling af hendes refleksioner og erfaringer med livet som kunstner."Jeg har nu levet 21 år af mit liv, og gennem alle disse år har kunsten aldrig sluppet mig. Dens tag er nærmest blevet fastere og voldsommere. Som en syl, der ikke er dræbende ved stikket, men først når den fjernes fra såret, og blodet kan pumpe ud. Ja, sådan vil jeg falde døende sammen, hvis man fjernede sylen fra mit sår. Om det er en gave eller en byrde, at jeg nu skal leve som kunstner resten af mine dage, har jeg endnu ikke fundet ud af. Men i dette nu betyder kunsten livet.”Det gamle kunstnerideal er ved at være uddateret, og måske er ideen om den ultimativt lidende kunstner ikke længere aktuel i denne evigt forandrende verden. I denne bog fremsætter Embla en teori kaldet Menneskemetoden, hvor nutidens kunstner først skal prioritere sig selv som menneske, dernæst som kunstner, og hun spørger; ”Er det ikke muligt at leve som lykkelig kunstner?”Bogen behandler livet som kunstner i et samfund, der fokuserer på intellektuel dannelse. Den omhandler balancen mellem det at være kunstner og det at være menneske. Og den belyser mistrivsel hos unge i det kunstneriske vækstlag.

Winslow Homer is an important name in American art, his canvases hang in museums around the world. He painted watercolors and oils of the Caribbean, the South, the seacoast of England, and the Adirondacks, but it is as a painter of the Maine coast that he is best known.In his biography we follow this New Englander from his childhood in Cambridge through his days during the Civil War as an artist for Harper's Weekly, his early years in New York, his visits to France and England, and to his happy years in Prouts Neck, Maine.Elizabeth Ripley was fortunate to speak with a friend of the Homer family, who remembered many anecdotes of the artist. As they strolled along the rocky coastline of Prouts Neck, the author recognized many familiar scenes from Homer's paintings and she understood his need of solitude in order to devote his life to painting.

There are few artists whose work is more universally known and loved than Raphael. His paintings grace the walls of the Vatican, his many serene Madonnas are famous the world over. That he was able to crowd so much achievement into his brief lifetime, is remarkable even for an Italian living in the Renaissance, when artists poured out paintings and sculpture in profusion. Elizabeth Ripley has brought Raphael to life with lovely, well-written text, illustrated with color reproductions of the artist's own works. With Raphael we visit Urbino, Florence and Rome. We meet Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Castiglione, and two great popes-personalities who played vital roles in his life. The charm, the beauty and the gentleness that endeared Raphael to those who knew him, is portrayed here along with his amazing genius.All paintings are in full color, with a few extra sketches and paintings new to this edition.
