  • Music in B Erlin September 7–14, 2015 Gendarmenmarkt Square, Berlin
    BETCHART EXPEDITIONS Inc. 17050 Montebello Road, Cupertino, CA 95014-5435 MUSIC IN B ERLIN September 7–14, 2015 Gendarmenmarkt square, Berlin Dear Traveler, Throughout its history, Berlin has been one of Germany’s musical epicenters. Eighteenth-century Berlin was considered the “Golden Age” for music making (corresponding with the coronation of Frederick II, himself a musician), and many important musical figures have lived and worked in this dynamic city, including Johann Joachim Quantz, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, Felix Mendelssohn, and Richard Strauss. In the 20th century, the fall of the wall turned Berlin into one of the most musically endowed places in the world—orchestras previously divided between east and west were now merged under the banner of one, unified city. This special program thoroughly immerses travelers in Berlin’s musical heritage, history, and artistic ambitions with a six-night exploration of the city combined with the opportunity to enjoy three private performances by superbly talented local chamber musicians, played at historic venues. Carefully-crafted, these personalized concerts will explore the themes of Baroque, classical, and romantic musical styles. While evenings will be spent appreciating Berlin’s classical music traditions, daytime excursions will introduce you to this splendid city, where history greets Demetrios Karamintzas and Kim Barbier perform a visitors at every turn. Delve into the city’s cultural institutions, including the famed private concert Pergamon Museum, with its unrivaled collection of ancient art and architecture, Cover: Brandenburg Gate and the Gemaldegalerie, home to one of the world’s greatest collections of 13th- to 18th-century European paintings. Berlin’s Jewish Museum, Cold War-era Brandenburg Gate, and Checkpoint Charlie all speak to the city’s tumultuous 20th-century history.

  • £1,380 the Rectangular Mercury-Silvered Plate Contained
    Call +44 7545 220052 Mid 18th Century Rococo Giltwood Mirror attributed to Johann August Nahl £1,380 the rectangular mercury-silvered plate contained within a frame of bold rococo scrolls and foliate swags in the manner of Johann August Nahl SKU: C2029 Height: 82 cm (32.25 inches) Width: 43 cm (17 inches) Year: Prussia. Circa 1750 The richly carved frame with its C-scrolls and rocaille clasps compares to the designs of sculptor Johann August Nahl (1710-1785). Nahl arrived in Berlin after his travel in France and Italy in 1740. At that time Frederick the Great decided to redecorate his existing palaces and in some instances build new palaces in Berlin and Potsdam - including Schloss Berlin, Monbijou, Charlottenburg and Sanssouci. Nahl was named Directeur des Ornements, he was a designer, but with his background as sculptor he was also responsible for the stucco, the carved panelling and the furniture. A design by Nahl for the Bronzesaal of the castle in Potsdam of 1740-1746 which depicts wall panelling with mirrors and console table, reflects the ornamental vocabulary of this mirror. H. Kreisel, Die Kunst des deutschen Möbels, vol.II, München, 1970, fig. 716. Others mirrors with comparable C-scroll carving and winged dragons are illustrated in H. Kreisel, Die Kunst des deutschen Möbels, vol.II, München, 1970, fig. 718-719. Soon after Frederick the Great's (1712-1786) accession to the Prussian throne, he appointed Georg Wenceslau von Knobbelsdorf as Surintendant of his palaces and under the latter's influence the so-called "Frederican Rokoko" evolved, characterised by bold contrasting curves .

    "Major Rivers in Germany" Since the time of the Roman Empire, major rivers in Germany have been used for military and transportation purposes.

  • Der Friderizianische Schlossbau Und Sein Ausstattungsprogramm
    Friedrich300 - Repräsentation und Selbstinszenierung Friedrichs des Großen Henriette Graf Der Friderizianische Schlossbau und sein Ausstattungsprogramm Abstract: In den Schlössern Friedrichs II. fallen sich zum Teil wörtlich wiederholende Raumausstattungen auf. Die Appartements des Königs setzen sich dabei stets aus den gleichen Raumtypen zusammen, die auf deren Nutzung in seinem Tageslauf abgestimmt sind. Bei Betrachtung der Komposition der Raumtypen fällt etwas für den deutschen Schlossbau des 18. Jahrhundert Neuartiges auf: das Verschmelzen von Schreib-, Schlaf- und Bibliotheksraum, das zugleich dem Rollenbild Friedrichs als 'roi philosophe' entgegen kam. Es wird hier die These aufgestellt, dass das Wiedererkennen von Räumen gekoppelt mit dem Wissen der Zeitgenossen um den Tagesablauf des Königs es ihm ermöglichte, Raumfluchten im Sinne von "Effigies", einer Substitution königlicher Präsenz einzusetzen. Friedrich war also durch die Iteration der Raumausstattungen nicht mehr gezwungen, sich persönlich in der Öffentlichkeit zu zeigen, denn seine Räume, Gemälde, Tapeten und Möbel übernahmen diese Aufgabe. <1> Zwei Aspekte wurden zum Thema Repräsentation und Selbstinszenierung Friedrichs bisher wenig berücksichtigt: zum einen ist es der planvolle, bis dahin in dieser Konsequenz von keinem König vollzogene Rückzug aus der Residenzstadt Berlin ins "Private", in seine Potsdamer Schlösser. War an den frühbarocken Fürstenhöfen Europas eine Trennung des öffentlichen von einem privaten Leben noch kaum möglich, so zog sich König Friedrich II.
