Reproductie Het gekroonde doornenkruis van Christus - Mattia Preti – Boeiende introductie In het rijke en complexe universum van de barokkunst onderscheidt het werk "Het gekroonde doornenkruis van Christus" van Mattia Preti zich door zijn emotionele diepgang en technische meesterschap. Dit schilderij, dat het lijden en de waardigheid van Christus oproept, dompelt de kijker onder in een moment van spirituele meditatie. De scène, doordrenkt met pathos, nodigt uit tot het overwegen van de menselijke toestand in het licht van pijn en verlossing. Door deze kunstdruk krijgen we de gelegenheid om de nuances van geloof en lijden te verkennen, terwijl we het artistieke genie van Preti waarderen, wiens unieke stijl blijft inspireren en fascineren. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De kracht van "Het gekroonde doornenkruis van Christus" ligt in de manier waarop Mattia Preti erin slaagt de intensiteit van menselijke emoties vast te leggen. De kunstenaar gebruikt licht- en schaduweffecten om de gelaatstrekken van Christus te accentueren, waardoor de diepte van zijn lijden wordt onthuld, terwijl hij toch een zekere majesteit behoudt. De donkere en rijke kleuren, typerend voor de barok, creëren een opvallend contrast met de lichtstralen die het gezicht en de handen van Christus verlichten, symboliserend pijn en hoop. Deze dualiteit staat centraal in het werk, waar lijden samengaat met goddelijke schoonheid. Preti, met zijn vaardigheid om texturen en uitdrukkingen weer te geven, biedt een meeslepende visuele ervaring die verder gaat dan een gewoon schilderij, en ons aanzet tot reflectie over geloof en veerkracht. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Mattia Preti, geboren in 1613 in Taverna, Italië, is een kunstenaar wiens carrière wordt gekenmerkt door een rijke geschiedenis van reizen en artistieke invloeden. Opgeleid in de schaduw van de grote meesters van Caravaggio, ontwikkelde hij een eigen stijl die de strengheid van tekenen combineert met een levendig palet. Tijdens zijn carrière werd Preti beïnvloed door de artistieke tradities van Rome, Napels en Malta, waar hij een groot deel van zijn leven doorbracht. Zijn werk weerspiegelt een tijd waarin kunst niet alleen diende om te decoreren, maar ook om de geest te verheffen en spirituele boodschappen over te brengen.Shipping Notes

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.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.
