"Oblique Strategies" by Brian Eno & Peter Schmidt - Peter Norton Christmas Gift This piece is from a series of Christmas gifts, given yearly by Peter Norton and his family. This one is from 1996. The white container is Corian, with a solid weight and feel. Within, there are bright and whimsical cards, each congaing a strategy or inspiration for thinking creatively. In 1970, Peter Schmidt created "The Thoughts Behind the Thoughts", a box containing 55 sentences letterpress printed onto disused prints that accumulated in his studio, which is still in Eno's possession. Eno, who had known Schmidt since the late 1960s, had been pursuing a similar project himself, which he had handwritten onto a number of bamboo cards and given the name "Oblique Strategies" in 1974. There was a significant overlap between the two projects, and so, in late 1974, Schmidt and Eno combined them into a single pack of cards and offered them for general sale. The set went through three limited edition printings before Schmidt suddenly died in early 1980. Sixteen years later software pioneer Peter Norton convinced Eno to let him create a fourth edition as Christmas gifts for his friends. Overall size: 6.25"W x 5"D x 2"H Card sizes: 3"H x 4.13"W Peter Norton (b. 1943) is an American programmer, software publisher, author, and philanthropist. He is best known for the computer programs and books that bear his name and portrait. Norton established his family foundation with his former wife Eileen Norton in 1989. The foundation’s primary focus is on supporting contemporary visual arts nationwide. For more than two decades, the Peter Norton Family commissioned annual limited edition artworks to give to friends, colleagues, and museums during the holidays. The “Christmas Projects” evolved from modest prints created in small runs to complexly fabricated objects and editions up to 5,000—with all those gift labels reportedly printed personally by Peter Norton. Each year’s artwork was always a surprise, as was the recipient list. Brian Peter George Eno (b. 1948) is an English musician, songwriter, record producer and visual artist. He is best known for his pioneering contributions to ambient music and electronica, and for producing, recording, and writing works in rock and pop music. Peter Schmidt (1931 - 1980) was a Berlin-born British artist, painter, theoretician of color and composition, pioneering multimedia exhibitor and an influential teacher at Watford College of Art. He was part of a generation of art school teachers in the 1960s and 1970s who had great impact on some students who later went on to work in art and music. He worked with Hansjörg Mayer, Brian Eno, Mark Boyle, Dieter Roth and had associations with Russell Mills...

Title: Collection of 10 Original Antique Tropical Fern Lithographs by E.J. Lowe, 1856 Description: An elegant collection of ten original hand-colored botanical lithographs depicting a remarkable diversity of tropical fern species from the celebrated botanical publications of Edward Joseph Lowe. Produced in London in 1856, these finely executed plates capture the graceful forms, intricate venation and distinctive reproductive structures that made ferns one of the greatest botanical fascinations of the Victorian era. The collection includes the following species, identified by their historical Latin names and corresponding English descriptive names: Polypodium latipes – Broad-Stalked Polypody Fern Polypodium karwinskianum – Karwinski's Polypody Fern Polypodium scolopendroides – Hart's-Tongue-Like Polypody Fern Polypodium simplex – Simple Polypody Fern Polypodium peltideum – Shield-Leaved Polypody Fern Polypodium spectabile (Pinna) – Showy Polypody Fern Polypodium terminale – Terminal Polypody Fern Polypodium palustre – Marsh Polypody Fern Polypodium concinnum – Elegant Polypody Fern Polypodium longissimum – Long-Leaved Polypody Fern Polypodium refractum – Bent or Recurved Polypody Fern The scientific names shown beneath the plates reflect the nineteenth-century botanical classification used by Edward Joseph Lowe. While many of these species have since been reassigned to other genera, the historical nomenclature remains an important part of the original publication. Several of the English names are descriptive translations, as no universally accepted common names exist today. Edward Joseph Lowe was one of the most influential British botanists of the Victorian period and a leading authority on ferns during the famous "Pteridomania" movement, when the cultivation and collection of ferns became immensely popular throughout Britain and Europe. His beautifully illustrated works successfully combined scientific accuracy with exceptional decorative quality and remain among the finest botanical publications of the nineteenth century. This collection presents an outstanding variety of fern forms, from broad pinnate fronds and finely divided foliage to deeply lobed and shield-shaped leaves. Displayed together, the ten prints form a harmonious botanical ensemble that is equally suited to a period interior, contemporary home or professional collection. Maker: Edward Joseph Lowe Place of publication: London Date: 1856 Technique: Original hand-colored lithographs Subject: Tropical ferns and botanical natural history Number of prints: 10 Condition: Good overall antique condition with age-appropriate toning, occasional foxing or small stains, and minor edge wear consistent with age and use. Some sheets retain small binding remnants or marginal irregularities from the original volume. Please study the images carefully. The prints are original antique lithographs, not reproductions. All items we offer are authentic period works of art over 100 years old. The pieces are sold unframed; any framed images are shown for presentation and interior inspiration only and may not always be to scale. Keywords: Edward Joseph Lowe, antique fern prints...

Carolina Monarch is a detailed botanical, part of a growing passion in interiors for honouring the natural world.

Original vintage TWA Holy Land 1960s travel advertising poster featuring a wonderful design by American artist David Klein. We adore Klein's typically stylised and colourful design of a dove carrying an olive branch in its beak is approaching Noah's great wooden ark floating on the flood waters. Trans World Airlines (TWA) was a major airline in the United States that operated from 1930 until it was acquired by American Airlines in 2001. It was formed as Transcontinental & Western Air to operate a route from New York City to Los Angeles, soon followed by multiple National routes. Howard Hughes acquired control of TWA in 1939, and after World War II led the expansion of the airline to serve Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, making TWA a second unofficial flag carrier of the United States after Pan Am. David Klein (1918 – 2005) was an American artist, best known for his influential work in advertising. Although he produced illustrations for Broadway theatrical productions, Hollywood films, the United States Army, and numerous corporate clients, Klein is best remembered for the iconic travel images he created for Howard Hughes and Trans World Airlines (TWA). Between approximately 1955–1965, Klein designed numerous award-winning travel advertisement posters, the bulk for TWA, many of which are now considered emblematic of the 1960s Jet Age. In 1957 New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) added Klein's iconic TWA Times Square...

Original Antique Print of Two Sperm Whales by Bertuch, c. 1800 Original antique hand-colored copper engraving depicting two sperm whales, published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch’s celebrated “Bilderbuch für Kinder” around the beginning of the 19th century. The plate is titled “Fische XXXVIII / Poissons XXXVIII” and presents two different representations of the sperm whale, one of the largest toothed whales in the world. Both animals are shown in profile with their characteristic massive, almost rectangular heads, narrow toothed lower jaws and relatively small flippers. Jets of water emerge dramatically from the blowholes. The unusual appearance of the animals reflects both their distinctive anatomy and the way whales were understood and represented by European naturalists around 1800. The sperm whale was of considerable economic importance during this period. It was hunted particularly for spermaceti, the waxy substance contained within its enormous head, as well as for whale oil and ambergris. These early zoological representations are especially interesting because accurate observation of living whales was extremely difficult. Natural-history illustrators therefore frequently relied upon stranded or captured specimens, descriptions by sailors and whalers, and earlier published illustrations. The engraving is delicately enhanced with original hand coloring in restrained shades of black, gray and brown and bears the inscription “Jacob Hauer Schmuzer” at lower right. Friedrich Justin Bertuch (1747–1822) was a German publisher, writer and patron of the arts. His monumental “Bilderbuch für Kinder” (Picture Book for Children) was one of the great illustrated educational encyclopedias of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Creator: Friedrich Justin Bertuch (1747–1822) Engraver: Jacob Hauer Schmuzer Source: Bilderbuch für Kinder Plate: Fische XXXVIII / Poissons XXXVIII Place of Publication: Weimar, Germany Date of Manufacture: Circa 1800 Period: Early 19th Century Style: Neoclassical – In the Period of Medium: Original hand-colored copper engraving on paper Condition: Good. Wear consistent with age and use. Light age-related toning and scattered minor spotting and marks. Some marginal wear and a small loss/irregularity at the upper right corner. Original hand coloring remains attractive. Please refer to the photographs for further details of condition. Please note: This is an original antique print from circa 1800, not a modern reproduction. The print is sold unframed. Framed images or interior views, if shown, are for presentation and inspiration only. Keywords: sperm whale print, antique whale print...
