Ephraim Moses Lilien (1874-1925) was one of the most important Jewish artists of modern times. As a successful illustrator, photographer, painter and printer, he became the first major Zionist artist. Surprisingly there has been little in-depth scholarly research and analysis of Lilien's work available in English, making this book an important contribution to historical and art-historical scholarship. Concentrating mainly on his illustrations for journals and books, Lynne Swarts acknowledges the importance of Lilien's groundbreaking male iconography in Zionist art, but is the first to examine Lilien's complex and nuanced depiction of women, which comprised a major dimension of his work. Lilien's female images offer a compelling glimpse of an alternate, independent and often sexually liberated modern Jewish woman, a portrayal that often eluded the Zionist imagination. Using an interdisciplinary approach to integrate intellectual and cultural history with issues of gender, Jewish history and visual culture, Swarts also explores the important fin de siècle tensions between European and Oriental expressions of Jewish femininity. The work demonstrates that Lilien was not a minor figure in the European art scene, but a major figure whose work needs re-reading in light of his cosmopolitan and national artistic genius.

"Since the publication of Edward Said's groundbreaking work Orientalism 35 years ago, numerous studies have explored the West's fraught and enduring fascination with the so-called Orient. Focusing their critical attention on the literary and pictorial arts, these studies have, to date, largely neglected the world of interior design. Oriental Interiors is the first book to fully explore the formation and perception of eastern-inspired interiors from an orientalist perspective. Orientalist spaces in the West have taken numerous forms since the 18th century to the present day, and the fifteen chapters in this collection reflect that diversity, dealing with subjects as varied and engaging as harems, Turkish baths on RMS Titanic, Parisian bachelor quarters, potted palms, and contemporary yoga studios. It explores how furnishings, surface treatments, ornament and music, for example, are deployed to enhance the exoticism and pleasures of oriental spaces, looking across a range of international locations. Organized into three parts, each introduced by the editor, the essays are grouped by theme to highlight critical paths into the intersections between orientalist studies, spatial theory, design studies, visual culture and gender studies, making this essential reading for students and researchers alike"--

Depuis la grande expédition d’Égypte qui marqua les esprits, seuls des voyageurs aussi célèbres que Maxime Du Camp et Gustave Flaubert sont restés dans les mémoires, alors que d’autres sont complètement oubliés ou connus des seuls spécialistes. Pourtant, leurs travaux restent des sources irremplaçables sur une ville en grande partie disparue. En effet, tout au long du XIXe siècle, beaucoup de monuments périrent faute d’entretien et à partir des années 1870, le khédive Ismaïl entreprit des travaux d’embellissement pour donner à la capitale de l’Égypte un aspect européen, aux prix d’importantes démolitions. Tous ces voyageurs, architectes, peintres, « antiquaires » furent subjugués par l’architecture médiévale du Caire et par le décor géométrique de ses bâtiments civils et religieux. Ils tentèrent à travers leurs dessins, photographies et relevés de faire connaître ces richesses artistiques que certains prévoyaient de publier dans des recueils, dont quelques-uns virent le jour. Ce livre a pour vocation de sortir de l’ombre ces passionnés qui offrent encore aujourd’hui des témoignages uniques assortis souvent de descriptions de dessins, de photographies ou d’écrits théoriques en règle générale peu accessibles. Un ensemble de spécialistes met ici en valeur ces documents tombés dans l’oubli et présente des synthèses de leurs œuvres et de leurs apports à la connaissance du Caire médiéval. La présente version numérique est revue et corrigée par rapport à la version publiée en 2013 aux éditions Picard.
