Journey to the Orient II

Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

Art and Fine Arts The neo-classicism and romanticism that Pratz explored throughout his life were the products of the European rediscovery of the "Orient," so it is inevitable that he was more interested in the Orient than anywhere else if he is to try to figure out what the Romantic writers and painters saw and felt there. Pratz first traveled around the Iberia Peninsula in the 1920 s, where Arabic culture remained strong, and in 1931 he traveled around the Giri Shea, looking closely at the scenery and architecture. Then, after the destruction of World War II and the chaos after World War II, he went to the countries of the Orient soon after independence from the rule of Western Europe. Pratz was an unmistakable "traveller". He traveled back in time to the Levant region and Egypt, going softly into the labyrinth of architecture, fine arts and literature, and inviting us to the beginning of human culture woven with text and memory that transcended time and space.
