Pretty film actress Lilian Weiss appeared in a dozen silent German films of the 1920’s. The introduction of the sound film probably ended her film career.
On cute film actress Lilian Weiss there’s no more information to be found on the internet than the films in which she appeared. The most complete list is offered by the German Filmportal.de, which offers 11 silent films. But also this well informed site does not give any personal information about the actress. Lilian’s career was short, it spans only five years. She made her film debut in the Ufa production Aus eigener Kraft - Ein Filmspiel vom Auto/On its own Power – A Motion Picture About the Car (1924,Willy Zeyn sen). She played the minor part of a waiting girl. The following year she had another supporting part in Weil Du es bist/While It’s You (1925, Hans Werckmeister), which starred Hanni Weisse. That year Lilian also appeared as a dancer in Im Krug zum grünen Kranze/In the Jug with the Green Wreathes (1925, Heinrich Lisson) with Camilla Spira and Dutch film actor Adolphe Engers.
1927 was Lilian Weiss’most productive year: she appeared in three films. Klettermaxe (1927, Willy Reiber) was a comedy starring Dorothea Wieck, who four years later became famous as the adored teacher on a girl’s school in Mädchen in Uniform/Girls in Uniform (1931, Leontine Sagan, Carl Froelich). Klettermaxe was remade in 1952 by Kurt Hoffmann with Liselotte Pulver. In Der Anwalt des Herzens/Lawyer of the Heart (1927, Wilhelm Thiele) starred Lil Dagover. And the third film of that year was Das gefährliche Alter/The Dangerous Age (1927, Eugen Illés) with the legendary Asta Nielsen. In all three films Weiss played only small supporting parts. The next year she was seen in Fürst oder Clown/Prince or Clown (1928, Aleksandr Razumnyj) with Marcella Albani and Iván Petrovich, and Charlott etwas verrückt/Charlotte a Little Crazy (1928, Adolf E. Licho) with Lya de Putti. Again her parts were only small. In 1929 the sound film was introduced in Germany and this probably finished her film career. That year she was seen in her last two films, Napoleon auf St. Helena/Napoleon on St. Helena (1929, Lupu Pick) with Werner Krauss, and Erpresser/Blackmailer (1929, Henry Decroix), in which she played the leading lady. Erpresser was probably not a success, and IMDb does not even mention the film. So Lilian Weiss’ first big film role was also her last.
More information about Lilian Weiss is very welcome.

#221 Adolphe Menjou & Katherine Hepburn
William Adolphe Bouguereau, 1882. (In the Detroit Institute of Arts)
Arguably the most popular painting in the Detroit Institute of Art.
The house of Adolphe Sax, inventor of the saxophone located in the street of the same name in Dinant.
---
Antoine-Joseph "Adolphe" Sax (6 November 1814 – c. 7 February 1894) was a Belgian inventor and musician who invented the saxophone in 1846. He played the flute and clarinet, and his other inventions are the saxotromba, saxhorn and saxtuba.
Antoine-Joseph Sax was born on 6 November 1814, in Dinant, Belgium, to Charles-Joseph Sax and his wife. While his first name was Antoine, he was referred to as Adolphe from childhood. His father and mother were instrument designers themselves, who made several changes to the design of the horn. Adolphe began to make his own instruments at an early age, entering two of his flutes and a clarinet into a competition at the age of 15. He subsequently studied performance on those two instruments as well as voice at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels.
According to the biography of Adolphe Sax, published on the city of Dinant's website, Sax faced many near-death experiences. Over the course of his childhood, he:
fell from a height of three floors, hit his head on a stone and could barely stand
drank, at the age of three, a bowl full of vitriolized water and later swallowed a pin
burnt himself seriously in a gunpowder explosion
fell onto a hot cast iron frying pan, burning his one side as a result
survived poisoning and suffocation in his own bedroom, where varnished items were kept during the night.
was hit on the head by a cobblestone.
fell into a river and was saved by the skin of his teeth.
Also according to the biography, his mother once said that "He's a child condemned to misfortune; he won't live". His neighbors called him "little Sax, the ghost".
After leaving the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, Sax began to experiment with new instrument designs, while his parents continued to make conventional instruments to bring in money. Adolphe's first important invention was an improvement of the bass clarinet design, which he patented at the age of 24. Sax relocated permanently to Paris in 1841 and began working on a new set of instruments exhibited there in 1844. These were valved bugles, and although he had not invented the instrument itself, his examples were much more successful than those of his rivals and became known as saxhorns. They came in approximately seven different sizes, and paved the path to the creation of the flugelhorn. Today, saxhorns are sometimes used in concert bands and orchestras. The saxhorn also laid the groundwork for the modern euphonium.
Sax also developed the saxotromba family, valved brass instruments with narrower bore than the saxhorns, in 1845, though they survived only briefly. Saxhorn instruments spread rapidly. The saxhorn valves were accepted as state-of-the-art and are largely unchanged today. The advances made by Adolphe Sax were soon followed by the British brass band movement which exclusively adopted the saxhorn range. The Jedforest Instrumental Band formed in 1854 and The Hawick Saxhorn Band formed in 1855, within the Scottish Borders, a decade after saxhorn models became available.
The period around 1840 saw Sax inventing the clarinette-bourdon, an early unsuccessful design of contrabass clarinet. Around this time he also developed the instrument for which he is best known, the saxophone, patented on 28 June 1846. The saxophone was invented for use in both orchestras and concert bands. Composer Hector Berlioz wrote approvingly of the new instrument in 1842. By 1846 Sax had designed, on paper, a full range of saxophones (from sopranino to subcontrabass). Although they never became standard orchestral instruments, the saxophones made his reputation and secured him a job, teaching at the Paris Conservatoire in 1857.
Sax continued to make instruments later in life and presided over the new saxophone class at the Paris Conservatoire. Rival instrument makers attacked the legitimacy of his patents and mounted a long campaign of litigation against Sax and his company. He was driven into bankruptcy in 1856 and again in 1873.
Sax suffered from lip cancer between 1853 and 1858 but made a full recovery. In 1894 Sax died in complete poverty in Paris and was interred in section 5 (Avenue de Montebello) at the Cimetière de Montmartre in Paris (Wikipedia).

Notes: André-Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri (1819 - 1889) a self-taught daguerreotypist, researched and improved upon the existing collodion-on-glass negative process, which he outlined in his first publication, Manuel Opératoire de Photographie sur Collodion Instantané, 1853. That same year, he returned to Paris and opened the largest studio in Paris, which spread across two floors. It was there that he introduced his carte-de-visite portraits which were a great financial success. For the 1855 Paris Exposition Universelle, he formed the Société du Palais de l'Industrie and obtained the rights to photograph all the products and works of art exhibited at the Exposition. Eder writes "Disdéri was considered the outstanding portrait photographer of his time in Paris. Napoleon III appointed him court photographer. In 1861, he instructed French officers in photography under orders from the minister of war. Disdéri's popularity is best shown by the fact that his character was introduced in 1861 as a star attraction on the stage of a small vaudeville theater in Paris by a realistic representation featuring his bald head and tremendous beard."

L'Innocence, a painting by William-Adolphe Bouguereau that uses a young child and a lamb as symbols of innocence. Although the term encompasses a number of meanings, the one depicted here is a state of unknowing, where one's experience is lesser, in either a relative view to social peers, or by an absolute comparison to a more common normative scale. In contrast to ignorance, it is generally viewed as a positive term, connoting an optimistic view of the world, in particular one where the lack of knowledge stems from a lack of wrongdoing, whereas greater knowledge comes from doing wrong.
William-Adolphe Bouguereau (November 30, 1825 – August 19, 1905) was a French academic painter.
Heading into Parc de la Tête d'Or in Lyon. The entrance is near the corner of Avenue de Grande Bretagne and Boulevard des Belges.
You enter via an impressive gate.
Parc de la Tête d'Or ("Park of the Golden Head"), in Lyon, is a large urban park in France with an area of approximately 117 hectares (290 acres). Located in the 6th arrondissement, it features a lake on which boating takes place during the summer months. Due to the relatively small number of other parks in Lyon, it receives a huge number of visitors over summer, and is a frequent destination for joggers and cyclists. In the central part of the park, there is a small zoo, with giraffes, elephants, deer, reptiles, primates, and other animals. There are also sports facilities, such as a velodrome, boules court, mini-golf, horse riding, and a miniature train.

Carte-de-visite of an unidentified man by Philip Adolphe Klier
(1845 Germany – Burma 1911)
Klier was active from 1871 where he was a professional photographer in Moulmein, Burma. His business interests included work as an optician, watchmaker, and jeweller as well as running the firm known as Murken & Klier.
Around 1880 Klier moved to Rangoon, Burma‘s largest city. Klier worked independently there until 1885 when he went into partnership with J. Jackson. By 1890 the partnership was dissolved and Klier became independent again.
Klier sold views of Lower Burma, Maulmain and the Andaman Islands, and ‘Burmese celebrities and characters of Burmese life‘.
A number of his photographs were produced as photogravures in art books of the time.
