Reproductie Portret van Sir Thomas Gresham - Antonis Mor – Boeiende introductie Het "Portret van Sir Thomas Gresham" door Antonis Mor is veel meer dan een eenvoudige afbeelding van een welvarende zakenman uit de 16e eeuw. Dit werk, doordrenkt met realisme en diepgang, dompelt ons onder in de complexe wereld van de Renaissance, een tijd waarin kunst en financiën verweven waren om de moderne wereld vorm te geven. Gresham, een sleutelfiguur in de Engelse economische geschiedenis, wordt hier vastgelegd door de vaardigheid van een kunstenaar die niet alleen de fysieke kenmerken weet te vangen, maar ook de essentie van zijn onderwerp. De schilderkunst, zowel majestueus als intiem, nodigt de kijker uit om de subtiliteiten van Gresham's persoonlijkheid te verkennen, terwijl het een fascinerend inzicht biedt in de periode waarin hij leefde. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van Antonis Mor onderscheidt zich door zijn nauwgezette aandacht voor details en zijn vakkundige gebruik van licht en schaduw. In dit portret is elk element, van het rijk versierde kostuum van Gresham tot de sobere achtergrond, zorgvuldig gekozen om de stature en het belang van de afgebeelde man te benadrukken. De levendige kleuren en delicate texturen getuigen van de technische meesterschap van de kunstenaar, terwijl Gresham's doordringende blik lijkt te transcenderen de tijd, en de kijker in een stilzwijgend gesprek betrekt. Dit portret beperkt zich niet tot een eenvoudige weergave van rijkdom of macht; het onthult ook de complexe persoonlijkheid van een man die een bepalende rol speelde in de ontwikkeling van handel en financiën in Londen. De psychologische diepgang van het werk weerspiegelt Antonis Mor's vermogen om niet alleen de uiterlijke verschijning, maar ook de ziel van zijn onderwerpen te vangen. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Antonis Mor, van Nederlandse afkomst, wordt erkend als een van de meest invloedrijke portretschilders van zijn tijd. Zijn artistieke loopbaan bracht hem in contact met vooraanstaande persoonlijkheden door heel Europa, waardoor hij zijn stijl kon verfijnen en diverse invloeden kon integreren in zijn werk. Mor slaagde erin de Vlaamse olieverftechnieken te combineren met de humanistische idealen van de Renaissance, waardoor portretten ontstonden die de eenvoudige representaties overstijgen en levende getuigenissen van de tijd worden.Shipping Notes

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters.
That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception.
SPOILER:
The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured.
I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series.
Favorite quotes:
"The truth may be twisted but never false."
"Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?"
"In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character.
*****SPOILERS*****
Pros:
The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits.
Cons:
Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks.
The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back.
*****
As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short.
Hence, 3 stars.
