Pitch perfect. From Funny Girl to a Star is Born, the meteoric rise of Barbra Streisand. In 1970 Barbra Streisand published a story in Life magazine titled "Who Am I Anyway?" It was the very question two leading photojournalists of the day—Steve Schapiro and Lawrence Schiller—were also asking as they photographed her during her first five years in Hollywood, working to get beneath the veneer and capture "the real Barbra." Brimming with photographs—over half of which have never been published before—and stories behind the shots from Schapiro and Schiller, this is a must-have collection for any Streisand fan. All the best movies of Streisand's first Hollywood decade are here: Funny Girl, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, The Way We Were, The Owl and the Pussycat...

Pocket globe London, between 1775 and 1798 Re-edition of the globe of Hermann Moll (1678-1732) dated 1719 The globe is contained in its original case, which itself is covered in shark skin. There are slight gaps in the original paint on the sphere. The case no longer closes. The sphere measures 2.7 in (7 cm) in diameter whereas the case measures 2.9 in (7.4 cm) in diameter. lb 0.22 (kg 0.1) The globe is made up of twelve printed paper gores aligned and glued to the sphere. In the North Pacific Ocean there is a cartouche with the inscription: A Correct Globe with the new Discoveries. The celestial globe is depicted on the inside of the box and is divided into two hemispheres with the cartouche: A correct globe with ye new cons relations of Dr. Halley & c. It shows the ecliptic divided into the days of the zodiacal calendar and the constellations represented as animals and mythological figures. On the globe are delineated the equinoctial line, divided by degrees and hours, the ecliptic and the meridian (passing west of Greenwich). The continents are shaded and outlined in pink, green and yellow. It shows: the Cook routes; a wind rose in the Southern Indian Ocean; Antarctica without land; Africa with Negroland (Hermann Moll is considered the first geographer to name the West African region in his 1727 map. (Encyclopaedia Britannica, ed. 1902, under "States of Central Africa"); Tartary in Central Asia; the Mogul kingdom in northern India; in North America only New England, Virginia, Carolina, Florida, Mississippi are identified; California is already a peninsula; the northwest coast of America is "unknown parts" (Alaska is not described and it is only partially delineated, it was to become part of the United States in 1867); Mexico is named "Spain"; Central South America "Amazone America". Australia (which was to be so named after 1829) is called New Holland. The route of Admiral Anson is traced (1740) and the trade winds are indicated by arrows. (See Van der Krogt, P., Old Globes in the Netherlands, Utrecht 1984, p. 146 and Van der Krogt, P. - Dekker, E., Globes from the Western World, London 1993, pp. 115.) Elly Dekker, comparing Moll’s 1719 globe and his re-edition (of which the one described above is a sample), identifies the differences between them: the two editions are quite similar to each other, but in the "anonymous" globe, compared to the previous globe of 1719, California looks like a proper peninsula - the reports of the Spanish explorers of the region had given rise to uncertainty over whether it was connected to the mainland or not. The geographical nature of California was confirmed after the explorations of Juan Bautista de Anza (1774-1776). The routes of Dampier's journey were partially erased and the route of Captain James Cook's first voyage was superimposed on them, and the geography of Australasia was adapted accordingly, including the denomination of the Cook Strait. See Dekker, Elly, Globes at Greenwich, 1999. An important ante quem element is represented by Tasmania: it is not separated from Australia by the Bass Strait...

Napoleonic Architectural Engravings Set, Baltard Paris Monuments Plates, 1803 This striking set of eight early 19th-century architectural engravings originates from the rare French publication Paris et ses Monuments, mesurés, dessinés et gravés, created by architect and engraver Louis-Pierre Baltard and published in Paris in 1803 during the early Napoleonic period. Baltard’s monumental publication was dedicated to Napoleon Bonaparte and aimed to systematically document the architectural treasures of Paris and its surrounding monuments through precise measurement, architectural drawing, and finely executed copperplate engravings. Today the work is regarded as one of the earliest comprehensive visual surveys of Parisian architecture produced during the Napoleonic era. The present group forms a visually balanced and highly decorative set illustrating several aspects of classical and Renaissance architecture. The engravings include façade elevations, architectural plans, ornamental studies, sculptural fragments, and atmospheric architectural views. Together they present a remarkable overview of architectural design, structural composition, and decorative detail typical of the scholarly architectural publications produced in France at the beginning of the nineteenth century. One of the most notable plates in the group shows the measured plan of the Château d’Écouen, one of the most important Renaissance châteaux in France. Built in the sixteenth century for the powerful Montmorency family, the château later became an important national monument and today houses the Musée National de la Renaissance. The engraved plan carefully illustrates the château’s symmetrical layout around its central courtyard together with the surrounding terraces, landscaped grounds, and tree-lined avenues. Other plates depict grand classical façades, monumental arches, richly carved capitals, sculptural ornaments, and picturesque architectural views set within wooded landscapes. Baltard’s engravings are admired for their combination of architectural precision and refined artistic engraving. Crisp linework defines the structural forms, while delicate shading creates depth in the sculptural and landscape elements. Architectural engravings from Paris et ses Monuments have become increasingly desirable among collectors, architects, and interior designers. Their refined balance between scholarly architectural documentation and decorative visual appeal makes them particularly suitable for elegant interiors such as libraries, studies, galleries, or sophisticated European-style homes. Displayed together as a gallery wall, the engravings create a striking architectural ensemble reflecting the intellectual spirit and artistic ambition of the Napoleonic period. The original antique engravings are offered unframed, giving flexibility to select frames that best suit the intended interior. Condition report: Very good condition for early nineteenth-century engravings. Printed on laid paper with wide margins. Light age toning and occasional small spots consistent with age. The engraved impressions remain sharp and clear. Framing tips: These engravings display beautifully as a coordinated wall set. Dark walnut or black frames with generous ivory or warm off-white mats create a refined museum-style presentation. For a more contemporary interior, thin black gallery frames with wide mats highlight the elegant linework and architectural detail.
