The Origins of the World Invention of Nature at The time of Darwin Laura Bossi The 19th century saw an unprecedented development of the natural sciences. Darwinian theory questions the origins of man, his place in Nature, his links with animals and his own animality in a world now understood as an ecosystem. This upheaval in the sciences, as well as the public debates throughout the century, deeply influenced the artists of the time. The Musée d’Orsay and the Musée des BeauxArts de Montréal are devoting an exhibition to the intersection of science and the arts for the first time, in partnership with the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, which will retrace the themes of this questioning and will confront the main milestones of scientific discoveries with their parallel in the art. Accompanies an exhibition at Musée d’Orsay in Paris: 9 November 2020 - 14 February 2021. The exhibition has been organized with the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Canada, which will take place from 16 March - 27 June 2021.
At the crossroads of science and art, this catalog compares the main milestones of scientific discoveries with their parallels in the collective imagination.

Bruce Springsteen Live! Janet Macoska Five decades of blue-jeans, down-to-earth rock ‘n’ roll. Five decades of poetic, authentic performances, political commentary, global tours and even a Broadway show. Bruce Springsteen hasn’t just left an impact on the surface of modern music, he helped shape its foundations. From the early beginnings in 1974 to the seminal Born in the USA – one of the best-selling albums of all time – to the 2016 River Tour, the highest grossing tour of the year, Springsteen has a truly timeless appeal, captured here by lauded rock photographer, Janet Macoska. Macoska charts Springsteen through the ages. Through her lens we witness his enduring energy on the stage, from 1974 to 2016. Here is Springsteen at his finest: a down-to-earth superstar, whose powerful performances stand the test of time. “Bruce would rip his heart out and give it to his audience. He put everything into his performance. He was all over the stage, and the whole rest of the band was in lockstep, complementing that energy. It was going out to the audience in bundles. We were sending it back, too, and that’s really electric. That energy, those visuals? Photographers love that. It’s perfect to have something like that to photograph.” - Janet Macoska
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band in glorious black and white and color photos, including iconic, rare, unseen and contact sheets.

Michael Caine Photographed by Terry O’Neill James Clarke “I had to be an actor,” Michael Caine once said. “[…] And of course, you have to remember with me, the alternative was a factory.” A working-class actor who broke through to stardom, Caine’s screentime involves standout performances across multiple genres. To this day, he is synonymous with a certain kind of urbane cool. No camera has captured this quality over the decades better than that of his collaborator and long-time friend, Terry O’Neill. Michael Caine: Photographed by Terry O’Neill offers an immersive visual journey through Michael Caine’s career, immortalizing Caine’s charm both in and out of character. Caine occupies a landmark position in cinema and O’Neill was there from the early days of his stellar career. From the comedy of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels to the European drama of Seven Times A Woman; from the miasma of The Magus to the British cult classic Get Carter, this book combines black and white and color images and includes never-beforeseen contact sheets. Featuring the following films: Mona Lisa, Midnight in Saint Petersburg/Bullet to Beijing, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Blue Ice, Without a Clue, Get Carter, Deadfall, Magus, Woman Times Seven, Funeral in Berlin.

Sukita Eternity Sukita “It’s very hard for me to accept that Sukita-san has been snapping away at me since 1972, but that really is the case. I suspect that it’s because whenever he’s asked me to do a session, I conjure up in my mind’s eye the sweet, creative and big-hearted man who has always made these potentially tedious affairs so relaxed and painless. May he click into eternity.” - David Bowie For Sukita, the creative mastermind behind David Bowie’s cover for Heroes, photography is an expression of a ‘fundamental secret’ shared between artists: a spiritual communication that transcends the minutiae of language. Born and raised in Kyushu, Japan, Sukita’s reverence of American counter-culture lured him to New York and London. He immersed himself in the western music scene which he loved, while his relaxed sessions endeared him to many celebrity figures, including David Bowie (with whom he enjoyed a 40-year professional relationship), Iggy Pop, Marc Bolan, and Japanese musician Hotei, best known for his work on the Kill Bill soundtrack. This is the first time the photographer has collaborated on a major retrospective of his career. It introduces the artist through a series of biographical essays that explore his place within the wider context of both Western and Japanese photography, presented alongside the iconic shots that earned him his eternal reputation.
A homage to Sukita: a legend in the world of music, film and celebrity photography – and the cult photographer of David Bowie’s Heroes, of Jim Jarmusch’s Mystery Train, and of iconic musicians Iggy Pop and Marc Bolan.

Lace Looking Through Flemish Lace Kaat Debo, Frieda Sorber, Tessy Schoenholzer, Ina van den Berghe Lace has been a luxury item, sought after by royalty and the aristocracy, since the early 1600s. Fashion has traditionally driven lace production, and in the 17th and 18th centuries the lace trade was a significant contributor to the economies of many European countries. This exhibition catalog for a show at MoMu, the Antwerp fashion museum, focuses on the venerable tradition of lace-making in Flanders, but places it within the larger context of the history of lace from the 16th century to the present. Historic pieces from international museums, including the Met (New York), the V&A (London) and the Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam) are complemented by contemporary fashion (Van Herpen, Dior, Alaia, Prada, Loewe, Givenchy). These pieces, and their cutting-edge production techniques, bring the history of Flemish-made lace up to the 21st century.

New York A Photographic Journey Jacqueline Goossens, Tom Ronse It is often said that you can’t take the same walk twice in New York. Its history may be short compared to that of European cities, but it is also a history marked by lightning-fast change. This pictorial journey into the history of New York City starts from the small town that began as New Amsterdam in the 17th century, tracing the unbridled expansion of the 18th century and waves of mass immigration of the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors, both experienced NYC tour guides, explore iconic districts like Times Square, Harlem, Wall Street, Central Park, Ellis Island and the Bronx, bringing the past and people to life through engaging stories and images. An inspired selection of archival photos, prints, vintage maps, stereographs, and ephemera make this publication, with its elegant, giltedged finish, a fascinating visual homage to the vibrant city that is New York today.

Venezia An evocative and atmospheric photo book, brimming with antiquarian treasures Serge Simonart This love letter in photographs to the unique beauty and mystery of Venice is an evocative compilation of vintage photographs, prints, and ephemera. It is a tactile ode to the sensuality of the city, filled to the brim with all manner of Venetian memorabilia: 19th-century photographs, engravings, hand-colored magic lantern slides, vintage postcards, old luggage labels, keys from long-lost luxury hotels, golden ducats from the 18th century, Carnival ball invitations. With gilt-edged pages and antique Venetian lettering, it is not a travel or walking guide, but an atmospheric pilgrimage that pays homage to this ever-fascinating city. Serge Simonart’s engaging commentary on Venetian history and culture introduces each subject with affection and insight. “Every day, a nervous traveller visiting the City of Doges for the first time asks the best way to get to their hotel. ‘The shortest or the most beautiful?’, I once heard the concierge at Hotel Des Bains ask. The tourist who opted for the most beautiful route is still wandering around the city. This is a unique photobook in which to wander and lose oneself.” - Serge Simonart
A photobook brim-full of antique memorabilia, vintage photographs, prints, and ephemera that pays homage to the melancholy beauty and mystery of Venice, with essays by Serge Simonart.

Book Marks: An Artist’s Card Catalog Notes from the Library of My Mind Barbara Page Book Marks is a literary journey through artist Barbara Page’s imagination and memory. In 2008, Page began creating artworks on obsolete, three-byfive-inch library checkout cards.These richly illustrated “book marks” started out as a colorful system for remembering titles and ultimately became an ongoing art project that forms the heart of this book. Page began by making cards for books she was currently reading, and soon decided to retrace her reading history back to the very beginning. Represented here are over 430 of the cards housed in an antique two-drawer library case, symbolizing the books the artist has read and loved over seven decades. Interwoven with personal accounts of the different stages of her life – as a child, young housewife, pilot, artist, widow, and traveler – the artworks illuminate how our memories of books are anchored not only to the story itself, but also to events and images beyond the book’s cover. Book Marks is a captivating fusion of autobiography and art book that reminds us of how significant books can leave indelible impressions on our lives.
Over 430 richly illustrated artworks interpret a lifetime of reading and illuminate how books inform and are informed by events in our lives.

Old Homes, New Life The Resurgence of the British Country House Clive Aslet, Photographs by Dylan Thomas What it is like to live in a country house today? What role do they play in the 21st century? For many years after the Second World War, the country house was struggling. Now a new generation of young owners, often with children, has taken over. They’re finding innovative ways to live in these ancient, fragile and poetic places. While they treasure the history and beauty of the houses, they’re also adapting and enhancing them for a modern era. Old Homes, New Life is a behind-the-scenes account of today’s aristocracy, as they reinvent the country house way of life. Each family recreates the country house with their own point of view, maintaining the tradition of individualism, even eccentricity, which is so much associated with country houses. Dylan Thomas’s superb yet intimate photographs capture both the inhabitants of these houses and the spaces they occupy - from State dining to family kitchen, walled garden to attic. This feast for the eyes is accompanied by an equally mouthwatering text by Clive Aslet, based on interviews with family members and his long experience of the subject through his years as editor of Country Life.

It provides a comprehensive, critical and well-illustrated survey of the portrayal of plants across over three thousand years, at a more compact size. Of the first edition, the poet and gardening writer, Vita Sackville-West said: “Let no one think this is a book only for the specialist. It is essential for the specialist, certainly, but it is also for all the flower-lovers and all those who enjoy the by-ways of biography and the added attraction of good writing”. This edition contains 126 color plates (more than twice as many as the first edition), alongside 140 black-and-white illustrations. It invites the reader to appreciate the works of the greatest botanical illustrators both past and present.

A Sameness Between Us The Friendship of Charmion von Wiegand and Piet Mondrian in Letters and Memoirs Martin Brauen In April 1941 Charmion von Wiegand (1896-1983), an American journalist and artist, met Piet Mondrian for an interview. From this very first meeting, a deep friendship and working relationship developed; she translated Mondrian’s texts into English and edited them, discussed art and philosophy with him, and played a part in the evolution of many of the works he created up to his death in 1944. The artist’s memoirs of their encounters and their comprehensive correspondence have now been published in full for the very first time. The texts portray a relationship fluctuating between burning affection and distant friendship, tenderness and harsh rejection, openness and reticence. A relationship that has left behind clear traces in Charmion von Wiegand’s life and works - far beyond Mondrian’s death. Nothing is the same as it once was!

Pre-Raphaelite Drawings and Watercolours Christiana Payne
The Works of Samuel Palmer Colin Harrison
An Instinct to Draw John Ruskin’s Drawings in the Ashmolean Museum Stephen Wildman
The Ashmolean’s collection of PreRaphaelite watercolors and drawings includes a wide variety of appealing works. It is especially rich in portraits, which throw an intimate light on the friendships and love affairs of the artists, and in landscapes which reflect Ruskin’s advice to ‘go to nature’.
The art of Samuel Palmer (1805-1881) is essentially a discovery of the 20th century. Although he exhibited widely during his lifetime, and found buyers for some of his watercolours and etchings, it was not until the retrospective exhibition held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1926 that the general public were able to enter the uniquely personal world of Palmer’s early years at Shoreham.
More than just an exhibition catalog, this book is a showcase of the Ashmolean’s incredible collection, and demonstrates the enormous range of Pre-Raphaelite drawing techniques and media, including pencil, pen and ink, chalk, watercolor, bodycolor and metallic paints. It will include designs for stained glass and furniture, as well as preparatory drawings for some of the well-known paintings in the collection.
The collection of paintings, drawings, watercolours, and etchings by Samuel Palmer in the Ashmolean Museum is the most important in the world. It is especially rich in the early works of the Shoreham period, from c. 1824 to 1835, notably the haunting self-portrait and the unique group of six sepia drawings of 1825, which represent the ‘visionary landscape’ at its most intense.
Ruskin’s life is one of the best documented of any in the 19th century, through letters, diaries and the many autobiographical revelations in his published writings: this allows the opportunity to give almost any drawing a level of context impossible for any other artist. When there is so much background information, a single drawing reveals much about its creator, and becomes a window into the great sprawling edifice of his life and work.

Thorvald Hellesen 1888-1937 Dag Blakkisrud, Matthew Drutt, Hilde Mørch Thorvald Hellesen (1888-1937) was a Norwegian avant-garde artist who lived and worked in Paris in the 1910s and ’20s. He and his wife, the French artist Hélène Perdriat, were part of a circle of artists that included Pablo Picasso, Fernand Léger, Constantin Brâncusi, Piet Mondrian, Theo van Doesburg, and many others. In his short life, Thorvald Hellesen created an impressive oeuvre, oriented on Modernism, consisting of oil paintings, watercolors, gouaches, drawings, design projects, and textiles. With this publication the authors Dag Blakkisrud, Matthew Drutt, and Hilde Mørch have created a written portrait of Hellesen. In addition to classifying him within the history of art, they try to find explanations as to why his artistic practice is only now being considered important and interesting for Norwegian and international art history.

La Petite Escalère Garden of the Haims Marie-Laure Bernadac, Dominique Haim, Pierre Wat In the 1970s, in the region of the Landes, between Bayonne and Peyrehorade, on the banks of the Adour River, the photographer Jeannette Leroy and the art dealer Paul Haim created a sculpture garden around a modest farm, La Petite Escalère. With the help of the faithful gardener Gilbert Carty, amidst canals, bridges, paths made of railway ties, and many trees and flowers, they installed about 50 works, some of them monumental, by artists such as Rodin, Maillol, Niki de Saint Phalle, Zao Wou-Ki, Françoise Lacampagne, Cárdenas, Mark Di Suvero, Léger, Matta, Zigor… Paul positioned the sculptures, and to help them vanish into the natural environment Jeannette would plant a shrub, a rosebush, dahlias, an oak, a maple, a gingko, a Caucasian walnut… “I don’t want this garden to become ridiculous!” she said.

Washi Transformed New Expressions in Japanese Paper Meher McArthur, Hollis Goodall, Edited by Zxachary Marschall Historically, washi paper has been used as a base for Japanese calligraphy, painting, and printmaking as well as a material in architecture, religious ritual and clothing. In recent years, contemporary Japanese artists have turned this supple yet sturdy paper into a medium for expressing their artistic vision – layering, weaving, dyeing, shredding, folding, or cutting the paper to form abstract sculptures, lyrical folding screens, highly textured wall pieces, and dramatic installations. This elegantly designed volume examines the extraordinary creations of these diverse contemporary artists from Japan, France, and the United States. The publication also demonstrates the resilience, versatility, and unique stature of this ancient artistic medium in the realm of international contemporary art. Published to accompany a traveling exhibition: Allentown Art Museum, Allentown, PA October 10, 2021 – January 2, 2022; Longmont Museum, Longmont, CO January 28, 2022 – May 15, 2022; D’Amour Museum of Fine Arts, Springfield Museums, Springfield, MA June 11, 2022 – September 4, 2022; Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, Delray Beach, FL November 3, 2022 – April 2, 2023.
This exquisite new publication celebrates how Japanese contemporary artists push traditional washi paper beyond its historic uses to create innovative, highly textured two-dimensional works, expressive sculptures, and dramatic installations.

The Art of Thai Comics A Century of Strips and Stripes Nicolas Verstappen After the first Thai comic strip was published in 1907, comics flourished in Siam and developed in uniquely Thai ways. Gory horror tales, anti-communist propaganda and socially-engaged graphic novels bear witness to the country’s darker years. From 1990, Thai comics struggled to compete with the sudden influx of unlicensed Japanese manga and went through a hiatus, making a comeback in the late ’90s with a new and alternative scene that deserves wider recognition. Each page of The Art of Thai Comics opens a unique window onto Thai society – a distilled vision of its hopes, fears, delights and horrors. Thai comics past and present offer an entertaining and enlightening viewpoint onto the country’s history, culture and enduring creativity.

The Age of Combustion Stephen Bayley The automobile is the ultimate analog machine and mankind’s most ingenious, seductive and damaging invention. For over a century, cars have provided reference points for our notions of style, status and desire. In design terms, the Age of Combustion was as rich and varied as architecture’s Baroque – and far more popular. And now it is coming to an end, as the internal-combustion engine is superseded by the battery and cars become wheeled computers, running on AI not oil. Together with a wide-ranging introduction, this book reproduces 60 of Stephen Bayley’s popular monthly columns between 20102020 for Octane, the outstanding classic car magazine where, for more than 10 years, he has provided the most consistent and insightful commentary on car culture, often based on privileged access to industry insiders.

In Flux American Jewelry and the Counterculture Susan Cummins, Damian Skinner, Cindi Strauss In the 1960s and 1970s, a generation of young Americans rejected the promise of prosperity and the suburban dream embraced by their parents. Furious about the war in Vietnam, fighting for civil rights at home, and eagerly exploring the effects of psychedelic drugs, the delights of free love, and the mystical teachings of eastern religions, thousands followed the advice to “turn on, tune in, drop out,” bringing about a counterculture in the process. Jewelers, like other studio craftspeople, rode the wave of popularity for the hand-made and authentic that was at the heart of the counterculture. In Flux is the story of how their jewelry contributed to the raucous, contradictory, and enthusiastic clamor for a new kind of society that made the 1960s and 1970s so extraordinary.

Modern British Jewellery Designers A Collector’s Guide Mary Ann Wingfield, Foreword by Lord Snowdon In the 1960s, British jewelry underwent a revolution. Natural, uncut stones exploded into vogue and a 1961 exhibition at the Goldsmith’s Hall kickstarted the nation’s new obsession with gold. The women who shopped at Quant’s Bazaar and Hulaniki’s Biba no longer just received jewelry as gifts. They placed their own orders, exploring Grima’s drizzled gold and Flöckinger’s fused metallic experimentations. This was an era of innovation – captured here through insights into the work of 25 major jewelers and sumptuous pictures of their work. This book introduces the most influential British designers, jewelers, goldsmiths and silversmiths of 1960-1980. Accompanied by new photography showing each designer’s creations, this is the perfect introduction for anyone with an interest in collecting, or learning more about this transformative period in British jewelry design.

Jewelry Stories Highlights from the Collection 1947-2019 Edited by Barbara Paris Gifford, and the Museum of Arts and Design, New York Jewelry Stories highlights the Museum of Arts and Design’s unique, worldclass collection of studio and contemporary art jewelry from the US, Europe, Australia, and Asia, a medium that comprises one-third of its permanent collection. Artists working in this field create jewelry rooted in sculptural experimentation and the concept of art as a wearable medium. The pieces featured represent the history of art jewelry as told from a largely US perspective. Jewelry artists are inspired by such subjects as found objects and materials, as well as by politics and pressing social issues, allowing for the development of unique, personal narratives in each piece. Each of the jewelry stories is written by an expert on the artist or subject, thus the book also celebrates the contributions they have made to the field.

Quiet Elegance The Jewelry of Eleanor Moty Helen W. Drutt English, Matthew Drutt, Bruce Pepich Eleanor Moty (American, b. 1945) is a seminal figure in the field of contemporary international studio jewelry. In a career that has spanned more than 50 years, she has been both a dedicated practitioner and a devoted teacher who has inspired succeeding generations of artists, collectors, and fellow professionals. She began to attract national attention in the late 1960s and early 1970s for her experiments with photoetching and electroforming metal. Later, mid-career, Moty made what seems like an abrupt shift in style and focus, with more abstract works whose designs were inspired by the natural inclusions within the non-precious gems used in their fabrication. This monograph is the first comprehensive in-depth examination of her career from its inception in 1967 through the present day.

Toxic Garden AN+, Edited by Stella Fitzgerald Foreword by Piet Oudolf, designer of the New York highline Published at a crucial time in which we are being forced to reconsider our relationship with the planet, this book explores the irony of toxic plants. Through exposing the fragile beauty of dried specimens in photographs, the reader learns of their physical potency in their potential to cause detrimental harm. Part I is an index of toxic plants and has an accompanying text to describe the adverse effects of their toxins on living beings. Part II is a reflective, philosophical meditation, which considers the different facets of reality, providing the reader with an opportunity to encounter the speculative aspects of architecture through plantscapes. Toxic Garden is a beautiful, philosophical and scientific book which creates a space for readers to grasp the qualities of poisonous plants. It is a story of their delicacy, resilience and power – characteristics which must be retained as the plants’ fragility is under threat.
By exposing the paradox between plants’ beauty and toxic qualities, readers learn of their physical potency and potential to cause detrimental harm.

LandRush Ventures into Global Agriculture Frauke Huber, Uwe H. Martin Agriculture drives climate change, extinction, erosion and water depletion. It uses about 40 percent of all land on earth and more than 70 percent of all freshwater. Due to over-exploitation of the soil and climate change, desertification is one of the greatest threats to life on earth. The authors have been documenting the social and environmental consequences of global agriculture since 2007. The book is divided in three parts: White Gold (2007-2012) examines the social and ecological effects of global cotton production; LandRush (2011-ongoing) analyzes the impact of large-scale agro-investments on rural economies, the boom of renewable fuels, and the future of agriculture around the world; Dry West (2014-ongoing) documents the hydrological society and human-shaped landscapes of the American West.

Let’s Play House Inspirational Living with Kids Joni Vandewalle Whoever welcomes children says goodbye to a tidy and perfectly-styled house. Babies and children grow and develop through play, and that means lots of toys. This can create chaos and sometimes less attractive corners in the home that are expertly hidden, moved, or simply ignored in most residential magazines. Lifestyle journalist and young mother Joni Vandewalle knows that a messy house, where children can play freely, is a happy house. Creating children’s rooms for optimal use is a challenging job, but one that is immensely rewarding for the whole family. In this book, she has selected 20 houses where clutter creates atmosphere, and where colorful play spaces and creative storage solutions prioritise activities where children can grow and play. This book is full of design inspiration for all parents and parents-to-be.

Icons Portraits by Andy Gotts Andy Gotts Foreword by Stephen Fry “His forté is the absolutely direct black and white portrait, full-on, sometimes grainy and remorseless in the detailing of complexion, sometimes mischievously witty and unexpected, always completely unforgettable.” - Stephen Fry “Andy Gotts is a genius of his craft” - Tom Hanks In 1990 Andy Gotts, then a young photography student at Norfolk College of Arts and Technology, approached Stephen Fry at an event to ask him for a portrait. That brief meeting led to an even briefer photographic session (90 seconds), during which Andy realized he had discovered his photographic approach: “I cannot remember what I said to provoke the expressions and reactions I had in these 10 frames, but that was it... BOOM! ... my eureka moment. It was like a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders and I knew celebrity portraits were the way for me.” Some 30 years later, Andy’s unique portrait style – rapidly taken and often face-on – is admired for capturing the charisma of famed sitters such as Kylie Minogue, Meryl Streep, Harrison Ford and Kirk Douglas. Andy’s chatty, quick-fire approach led Paul Newman to nickname him ‘One Shot Gotts’. The photographs that Andy creates are naturalistic, eschewing the seductive technological traps of airbrushing and heavy styling. Andy Gotts was awarded an MBE in 2012 for his contribution to photography.

In Your Face Paul Trevor Photographer Paul Trevor has been documenting the East End of London for over 25 years. This new book of black-and-white close-ups, made spontaneously on the streets of east London, capture Britain’s perennial social divide. They contrast the people in the City – London’s money market – with those in the nearby street market of Brick Lane. Paul Trevor shot these images between 1977 and 1992 – but mostly in the ’80s, provoked by Thatcherism and a polarized debate on market forces vs community values. The imagery is as fresh and relevant today as it was then.

In Praise of Hands Woodcuts by Naoko Matsubara Poems by Penny Boxall Edited by Clare Pollard This creative collaboration between artist Naoko Matsubara and poet Penny Boxall celebrates in words and colors the beauty and variety of the human hand. The series of dynamic woodcuts at the heart of this book was initially inspired by the artist’s wonder at the busy hand movements of her baby son. The woodcuts convey a sense of joy and energy, whether exploring the symbolism of gestures, playing with form and color, or expressing a mood or emotion. Penny Boxall’s new poems were specially written to accompany the woodcuts. In their clarity and playfulness, their range of mood and their deceptive simplicity, they form a remarkable creative synergy with the art works.

Courtly Companions Pugs and Other Dogs in Porcelain and Faience Gun-Dagmar Helke, Hela Schandelmaier In the 18th century pugs found their way onto the laps of noblewomen and, with this, into the portraits of contemporary rulers. Small and forever panting, the pug could not be put to use as a watchdog or a herding dog, but it compensated for this with its charm. The dog ultimately found its way onto porcelain and faience. Johann Joachim Kändler, the most significant modeler of the Meissen porcelain manufactory, designed over 60 variants of the pug between 1740 and 1760 – standing, lying, scratching, and performing tricks. This southern German collection comprises over 150 ceramic pugs as well as other dogs.
