"In the royal and princely courts of Europe, artworks made of multicolored semiprecious stones were passionately coveted objects. Known as pietre dure, or hardstones, this type of artistic expression includes?paintings in stone,? which were composed of intricately cut separate pieces that were made into magnificent tabetops, cabinets, and wall decorations. Other works included vessels and ornaments carved with virtuosic skill from a single piece of rare and brilliant lapis lazuli, chalcedony, jasper, or similarly prized substance; exquisite objects such as boxes, clocks, and jewelry; and portraits of nobles sculpted in variously colored stones. Derived from ancient Roman decorative stonework, the art of pietre dure was developed in Renaissance Florence, where the manufacture of such objects was enthusiastically sponsored by Medici princes. Ideally suited for ostentatious display, the works sent an unmistakable message of wealth and political might that was understood in centers of power everywhere. From Italy the medium spread across Europeto Prague, Madrid, Naples, Paris, and later Saint Petersburg. Precious and fragile, pietre dure objects are rarely brought together in large numbers. This richly illustrated catalogue contains more than 150 masterworks from across Europe, dating from five centuries, including almost every artistic use of semiprecious stone during this time as well as some of the finest examples of the medium. Eight essays by European and American experts discuss the individualized development of pietre dure in every European region, the latest developments in scholarship, the interrelationships between art and dynastic politics and between cultures, and a variety of techniques used to produce these luxurious masterworks."--Metropolitan Museum of Art website.

Hail Regina (A Satire of Political & Religious Romp) SEASON ONE –EPISODES 1-8 This is the first of five novellas in this series. Hail Regina is a classic, theatrical-styled satire, created in a dystopian setting. It is serialized and set in the near future (2025-30). It is family-friendly with mature themes. The novella opens in 2027. There has been a great economic crash that has devastated citizen’s lives throughout the Congregation of States. In the wake of recovery, the Secular Party has devised an inspiration for the citizens. It will reclaim the dilapidated docklands, spread along the waterfront of the Capital. Whilst the atomic test program is on track, the State-leader, Royston Bustwick and his Secular Party, will bring hope to the citizens, as they are called upon to make their state—great again. Atop of Constitution Hill, the statue of the Holy Mother Regina—presides within the sacred waters of the rooftop fountain of the Vivatrium. Angelic beings are sighted gravitating around Her, whilst inexplicable horn-like sounds are heard—up in the skies, beyond the Mt. Liberty Control-Tower and out to the atomic wastelands. Stylistic influences include, 'The Iron Heel' by Jack London (1907), 'We' by Yevgeny Zamyatin (1920), ‘Brave New World’ (1932), ‘Fahrenheit 451’ (1953), Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut (1952) and 'The Children of Men' by P.D. James (1992). This irreverent work has a more light-hearted flavour than the former works mentioned. Its theatrical flamboyance makes this a different offering to the traditional novels in the genre. Hail Regina is written to entertain above all else.

Sylvalla escapes Avondale castle and the life of a princess, in search of the adventure she’s always wanted. Once found, adventure bites back. Fortunately, she's not alone. Unfortunately, her new-found companions are less than heroic. Jonathan, would rather make money than learn wizardry. Dirk, would rather live a long and happy life than confront danger. And at 150, old Capro would rather stop gallivanting, and harangue unsuspecting wizardry students about his glory days over a nice cup of tea. Quest has everything, heroes, monsters, chases, escapes and a complete lack of true love. A celebration of adventure fantasy, Quest is a quirky and original fantasy from award winning and USA Today Bestselling author, A.J. Ponder on behalf of Wizardly historian, F Fraderghast. Become a student of magic today, and discover the true fighter, warrior, and most unprincess-like Princess Sylvalla, as she battles for her place as a hero.
