Neville Jacobs


Book Description

The Instagram photographs of the glamorous life of Neville, social-media superstar and esteemed companion of the fashion designer Marc Jacobs. With classic images from his popular Instagram account as well as outtakes, carefully styled shots from Neville’s "fashion editorials," and candid snapshots of Neville and Marc together, Neville Jacobs is a treat for any dog lover and a delight for anyone with equal fascination for fashion and dogs alike. Dubbed "the hardest working dog in fashion" by T Magazine, Neville Jacobs—the sweet-natured bull terrier belonging to the ubiquitous Marc Jacobs—is, in the canine world at least, fast becoming as popular as his owner. Drawing on hundreds of photographs taken of Neville from puppyhood to today, this charming book not only captures the character of one charismatic animal, but also sheds light (and some fur) on the busy and glamorous world of a downtown New York dog. From the Marc Jacobs offices (where Neville plays a key role) to the streets of SoHo, the dog runs of Manhattan, and even private jets to exotic vacations, Neville’s life is a whirlwind the likes of which most dogs could only twitch their paws and dream of. Surrounded by beloved friends, both human and canine—from fashion icons like Christy Turlington and Karlie Kloss to Choo Choo Charlie, the French bulldog from whom he is inseparable—Neville brings joy and his unmistakable energy to every adventure.

Book Description

What They're Saying "humor and adventure like Guardians of the Galaxy" -- Goodreads reader "like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" -- Anina Net, 360Fashion Network "amazingly fun and heartwarming" -- Amazon reader "damned near perfect" -- Amazon reader "a world that's easy to get immersed in" -- Amazon reader "reminds of Star Wars" -- Advance reader "a joy of a novel to read" -- Advance reader The year is 2399. Humans' "biological clocks" have been stopped for more than 250 years, freeing humanity from aging and death. AIs have rights, and can even acquire full citizenship. It's also fashion week. Antisocial fashion editor Pablo Starr -- who runs Space Fashion Week, via RNWY -- is bored and depressed, as usual. He has endless riches, and (like everyone in 2399) doesn't age, but he's been searching for his lost love for almost 100 years. Meanwhile, supermodel-turned-reality star Samantha (of mean-spirited holo show Samantha!) is trying to make a name for herself as an inventor, but she's mocked by the media and her shallow co-workers. Their lives are connected, and changed, when DOS, an antiquated robot, crashes the Chanel show looking for Samantha. DOS has a wild story: his owner has been abducted by a Sention sim (a lifelike android made by Fashion Robotics), and Pablo will be next. Welcome to Book 1 of RNWY Universe. See a full history, technological specs, and take the "AI Citizenship Test" at RNWYUniverse.com. FROM THE AUTHOR "As with the Marvel movies, my books are very much explorations of character. But my characters aren't 'chosen ones.' They're ordinary people who do extraordinary things using compassion, wit, humor, and kindness: even when their choices are difficult. RNWY: Book 1 is also about some of the ways technology will challenge some our basic assumptions about life: and how we can rise to the occasion with expanded notions of family and love. The next step for the book is as a graphic novel series and motion picture. You can follow RNWY Universe as it develops on Instagram @RNWYUniverse and at www.RNWYUniverse.com."

Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice


Book Description

Bridging the fields of conservation, art history, and museum curating, this volume contains the principal papers from an international symposium titled "Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice" at the University of Leiden in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from June 26 to 29, 1995. The symposium—designed for art historians, conservators, conservation scientists, and museum curators worldwide—was organized by the Department of Art History at the University of Leiden and the Art History Department of the Central Research Laboratory for Objects of Art and Science in Amsterdam. Twenty-five contributors representing museums and conservation institutions throughout the world provide recent research on historical painting techniques, including wall painting and polychrome sculpture. Topics cover the latest art historical research and scientific analyses of original techniques and materials, as well as historical sources, such as medieval treatises and descriptions of painting techniques in historical literature. Chapters include the painting methods of Rembrandt and Vermeer, Dutch 17th-century landscape painting, wall paintings in English churches, Chinese paintings on paper and canvas, and Tibetan thangkas. Color plates and black-and-white photographs illustrate works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
