Three publications, a feast for the eyes in a magnificent format for a highly competitive price. Japanese Dream: Well-traveled photographer and war correspondent Felice Beato (1832-1909) reached the Japanese port city of Yokohama in July 1863 and spent more than twenty years there. Grand Tour. A Photographic Journey Through Goethe's Italy. This extra-large volume juxtaposes quotes from Goethe with the corresponding images. The Journeys of Casanova: Having lived in cities including Vienna, Paris, Rome, London, Berlin, St. Petersburg, and Madrid, Giacomo Casanova (1725-1796) could be described as the first cosmopolitan. The large-format illustrated volume follows in the footsteps of this well-known libertine and couples passages from his memoirs, remarkable in so many aspects, with magnificent early photographs and charming hand-colored book illustrations.
