Pont-de-Montvert is a small and shrunken Protestant village in an isolated part of the Cévennes mountains of Southern France. In 1700, the village was a complicated world where some fifteen hundred landless peasants, yeomen peasants, artisans, bourgeois, and nobles had unequal rights, unequal responsibilities, and different perceptions of politics. Today, Pont-de-Montvert is a much smaller, classless society, where social differences have little to do with politics and are due more to personal worth than to inherited wealth or status. In the seventeenth century, both rich and poor of Pont-de-Montvert had their own politics; one century later, at the time of the French Revolution, the political differences had vanished though the social ones remained. During the nineteenth century, the social structure was transformed, as were its connections with politics. In this book, P. L.-R. Higonnet explains these changes and describes the conditions of life for different people at different times in a village that is both a part of France and a world unto itself.

Pont-Aven has lent its name to one of the most famous schools of painting in modern art and is now automatically associated with Paul Gauguin and Émile Bernard. In 1888, in this Breton village in southern Finistère, the two painters set about inventing the features of a completely new style of painting: Synthetism. Breaking with academic orthodoxy and heavily influenced by Japanese prints, they introduced novel aesthetic principles distinguished especially by a belief in simple forms and the use of color applied in large patches edged by a dark line. This approach further distanced itself from the art that preceded it in its taste for matt tones and the rejection of traditional perspective.This new book reveals to a wider public the important collection that Alexandre Mouradian amassed in only a few years. The collection reflects its creator's great passion for the artists of the Pont-Aven group, as well as others in Brittany and beyond who embraced the new ideas of Bernard and Gauguin without ever losing their individuality. Whether in painting or printmaking, each of these was able to move beyond the imitation of observed reality to express the deepest aspect of his personality: his emotions. The works selected by the collector eloquently show the international reach of what was not strictly speaking a school, in the full sense of the term. Since the private Paris academies were closed during the summer, artists from all over Europe went to Pont-Aven and Le Pouldu to seek inspiration and 'to dare' like Gauguin.Written contributions by Jean-Marie Rouart of the French Academy and the author and art historian Adrien Goetz, are supported by detailed notes on the works by the museum curator Estelle Guille des Buttes, providing invaluable insights into this exceptional collection.

[Laidler, Graham] Hollowood, Bernard. Pont. An account of the Life and Work of Grahma Laidler (1908-1940), the great Punch Artist with 200 drawings and a note on Pont's draughtsmanship by Ian Fleming-Williams. First Edition. London, Collins, 1969. 21.5cm x 27.5cm. 184 pages. Original Hardcover. Very good condition with only minor signs of wear. (Gavin) Graham Laidler (1908-1940) was a British cartoonist, noted for his work in Punch magazine in the 1930s. Laidler was born on 4 July 1908 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England at 6 Osborne Avenue, Jesmond. His father, George Laidler, owner of a painting and decorating business, died when Laidler was 13 and his mother, Kathleen, eventually the family moved south, finally settling in Jordans in Buckinghamshire. Laidler had always hoped to become a cartoonist but, to ensure an income that would adequately support himself and his widowed mother, he enrolled at the London School of Architecture in 1926. After being diagnosed with tuberculosis in 1932, he was unable to continue with an office-based career and started to concentrate on his cartoons. From 1930-1936 he published a weekly strip The Twiffs, in the magazine Woman's Pictorial. In August 1932 he had his first acceptance from Punch; by 1937 he was so popular that the editor, EV Knox, is understood to have made an almost unprecedented 'gentlemen's' agreement' with him to take all his drawings if Laidler would undertake to draw only for Punch - possibly a bid to make sure he was not poached by Graham Greene's new magazine Night and Day. Under the name 'Pont' (derived from a nickname - Pontifex Maximus - he acquired during a visit to Rome), Laidler became one of the most original talents in the history of Punch and his work continues to inspire cartoonists to this day. He is perhaps most famous for his series on the 'British Character'. This was published as a book in 1938. Another book The British Carry On (1940) portra..

A Visegrad, c'est sur le pont reliant les deux rives de la Drina - mais aussi la Serbie et la Bosnie, l'Orient et l'Occident - que se concentre depuis le xvie siècle la vie des habitants, chrétiens, juifs, musulmans de Turquie ou « islamisés ». C'est là que l'on palabre, s'affronte, joue aux cartes, écoute les proclamations des maîtres successifs du pays, Ottomans puis Austro-Hongrois.C'est la chronique de ces quatre siècles que le grand romancier yougoslave Ivo Andri ´c, prix Nobel de littérature en 1961, nous rapporte ici, mèlant la légende à l'histoire, la drôlerie à l'horreur, faisant revivre mille et un personnages: de Radisav le Serbe empalé par le gouverneur turc, à Fata qui se jette du pont pour éviter un mariage forcé, et au vieil Ali Hodja, le Turc traditionaliste, qui voit avec consternation surgir les troupes de l'empereur François-Joseph.En 1914, le pont endommagé dans une explosion demeure debout. Sinistre présage, cependant, grâce auquel ce roman paru en 1945, oeuvre d'un écrivain bosniaque par sa naissance, croate par son origine et serbe par ses engagements d'alors, nous paraît aujourd'hui mystérieusement prophétique.
