Sherman's Wife is Julia Camoys Stonor's blackly humorous childhood memoir. Her mother, Jeanne, came from an impecunious Catholic aristocratic family and careened her way through the bedrooms of Mayfair, Madrid and Rhode Island. Her father was Sherman, the half-American 6th Baron Camoys whom Jeanne effectively blackmailed into marriage. Jeanne insisted that she and Sherman spend their honeymoon with one of her lovers, Hitler's foreign minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop. Once installed at the Stonor Park estate, Jeanne set about acquiring money and power through any means possible, including but not limited to theft, sexual blackmail, and murder. In this frank and unflinching portrait of English upper class life in the 1940s, Julia Camoys Stonor manages to evoke Mommie Dearest and Brideshead Revisited in equal measure.

Faberge S Eggs written by Toby Faber and has been published by Pan Macmillan this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008-09-04 with Art categories.
This is the story of Fabergé's Imperial Easter eggs – of their maker, of the tsars who commissioned them, of the middlemen who sold them and of the collectors who fell in love with them. It's a story of meticulous craftsmanship and unimaginable wealth, of lucky escapes and mysterious disappearances, and ultimately of greed, tragedy and devotion. Moreover, it is a story that mirrors the history of twentieth-century Russia – a satisfying arc that sees eggs made for the tsars, sold by Stalin, bought by Americans and now, finally, returned to post-communist Russia. There is also an intriguing element of mystery surrounding the masterpieces. Of the fifty 'Tsar Imperial' eggs known to have been made, eight are currently unaccounted for, providing endless scope for speculation and forgeries. This is the first book to tell the complete history of the eggs, encompassing the love and opulence in which they were conceived, the war and revolution that scattered them, and the collectors who preserved them.

An incredible album of rare, recently discovered drawings from the Carl Faberge workshop in St. Petersburg is reproduced in its entirety. Over 1,000 pieces are illustrated, essential components of Faberge's oeuvre during a period considered to be one of the richest in terms of quality and design. These objects - produced primarily from 1911 to 1913 - are drawn to scale in pencil, pen and ink, nearly all of them beautifully filled in with watercolor. In addition to the album, there are illustrations of 40 objects found by the authors juxtaposed with their original drawings as well as contemporary photographs of Faberge's workshops. The text examines the pieces in both their social and artistic contexts including relevant source materials.
