Reproductie Mrs Pierre Bacot Marianne Fleur Du Gué - Henrietta Johnston – Boeiende introductie De kunstdruk Mrs Pierre Bacot Marianne Fleur Du Gué - Henrietta Johnston dompelt ons onder in een wereld waar elegantie en verfijning samenkomen. Dit werk, gemaakt door Henrietta Johnston, een pionier in pastel schilderkunst aan het begin van de 18e eeuw, getuigt van een tijdperk waarin kunst en samenleving op een fascinerende manier verweven waren. Door de figuur van Marianne Fleur Du Gué in de schijnwerpers te zetten, roept het doek niet alleen fysieke schoonheid op, maar ook een zekere psychologische diepgang. De voorstelling van deze vrouw, zowel model als muze, nodigt de kijker uit om de nuances van haar karakter en haar tijd te verkennen, waardoor dit werk een ware spiegel wordt van de vrouwelijke gevoeligheid van haar tijd. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van Johnston wordt gekenmerkt door een opmerkelijke fijnheid, een beheersing van kleuren en een bijzondere aandacht voor details. In dit werk worden de delicate trekken van het gezicht van Marianne Fleur Du Gué benadrukt door subtiele nuances die het licht bijna levendig vastleggen. De plooien van haar jurk, zorgvuldig weergegeven, lijken gracieus te zweven, terwijl de achtergrond, licht wazig, de centrale figuur benadrukt. De compositie is in balans, elk element is zorgvuldig bedacht om de blik naar het expressieve gezicht van het model te leiden. Deze artistieke keuze, die traditie en innovatie combineert, is emblematisch voor het talent van Johnston en haar unieke benadering van portretkunst. Bovendien maakt het gebruik van pastels, een medium dat vaak wordt geassocieerd met een zekere lichtheid, het mogelijk voor de kunstenaar om te spelen met texturen en sensaties, waardoor een tactiele dimensie aan het werk wordt toegevoegd. De kunstenaar en haar invloed Henrietta Johnston, vaak beschouwd als een van de eerste vrouwelijke portretschilders in Amerika, wist zich te vestigen in een artistieke wereld die door mannen werd gedomineerd. Geboren in 1673 in Londen, emigreerde ze naar Amerika, waar ze haar kunst ontwikkelde en de geest van haar tijd wist vast te leggen. Haar invloed beperkt zich niet alleen tot haar werk, maar strekt zich ook uit tot de manier waarop ze de weg heeft vrijgemaakt voor andere vrouwelijke kunstenaars. Door de normen van haar tijd uit te dagen, bewees Johnston dat creativiteit en talent geen geslacht kennen. Haar portretten, vooral dat van Marianne Fleur Du Gué, blijven een testament van haar artistieke erfenis.Shipping Notes

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn)

Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf
•
I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆
We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger!

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟
This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens.
The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him.
I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure.
My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times.
Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!

Interesting take on the genre
Format: Kindle
True rating: 3.25 ⭐️
I enjoyed the fresh take on the genre. The best way I could describe the setting and world is an apocalyptic dystopian version of Farie where vampires, fae, and angles struggle to survive in what is left of the world. It was definitely interesting throwing the academy/hunger games aspect into this world as well.
Even though I guessed the final reveal early on in the book, I kept hoping I was wrong, and it would take a surprising turn. While the "plot twists" were a bit predictable to me, I still enjoyed the ride this book took me on.
Another downfall for me was the plot holes in the world building... I.E. if society has fallen and the world is in the aftermath of war, how are there trains running around the world? Just to take young adults to the trials to get into the golden city? How is the train maintained, the tracks clear, etc?
However, I did enjoy the FMC & MMC and thought they were fleshed out nicely. I also enjoyed the side characters but wish some were developed more like Ashalin (sp?). I do find myself rooting for the MCs to succeed and find happiness together, which is obviously an important aspect for romantasy.
Overall, was this an earth-shattering, mind-bending, terrific piece of literature? No. But was it the worst thing I've read this year? Also, no. This book has, to me, the bones of a great read & just needs a bit more to push it from an alright book to a great book.

great book
Format: Kindle
I am really excited to meet the author at the book retreat this month. I really enjoyed this world that she built and most of the female main character Huntress is so awesome. She goes through a lot in this book and the ending; wow! I wouldn't have even guessed. I highly recommend everyone to read this book.
I have been so lucky this year that almost all the books I have read have been, so far, 5 out 5 stars.

Fallen for the Fallen Angel – A Guilty Pleasure Worth Every Page
Format: Kindle
There’s something deeply irresistible about a dark academia or trial-based setting, a brooding and arrogant fallen angel, and a fierce heroine with enough sass to go toe-to-toe with him. Wings So Wicked is exactly that kind of book—and I devoured it in just a couple of days.
To be fair, the plot isn’t groundbreaking. If you’re looking for something fresh and innovative in terms of storyline, this might not be it. But if your reader heart beats faster at the mere mention of enemies-to-lovers, jealousy-fueled banter, magical trials, betrayals, and forbidden tension—you’ll feel right at home. It’s like catnip for those of us with this particular weakness.
The chemistry between the leads could have used a slightly slower burn to make the tension sizzle longer, but I still found myself completely invested in their dynamic. There are moments and phrases that feel a bit cheesy or underdeveloped, but honestly? I didn’t care. The vibes were exactly what I wanted.
This book isn’t trying to reinvent the genre—it’s here to give readers like me what we crave: high-stakes magical drama, angsty romance, and the thrill of watching a badass girl and her brooding counterpart clash and spark. If that sounds like your kind of story, Wings So Wicked will hit the mark.
Here’s hoping Book 2 turns up the heat and keeps the magic alive.
