The fish auction hall is probably one of the most historic places in Hamburg. For more than 120 years it has reflected the development and life in the Hanseatic city. In the course of the last century it has been able to and had to witness many different changes. The destruction of the Second World War brought the fish trade to a standstill, but the hall was rebuilt and restored so that it could continue to serve its old purpose.
However, not only the original construction plans were used for its reconstruction, but also modern architectural influences came into play and make it the gem that you can experience in Hamburg today.

Proof that an expensive handbag isn't always a pointless extravagance can be found at Christie's where several upcoming sales show that Hermes bags can be an investment. On December 9 during the Jewels sale at South Kensington, London, Christie's will auction off 23 Hermes handbags including the Mini Kelly bag in forest green and the Sac Malette style in brown which, gilt with metalware, once belonged to Charlie Chaplin's wife. Shown at right is a rare Haut à Courroies bag. The bag was first designed by Hermes circa 1900 to carry equestrian gear but quickly became a popular travel bag. Hermes produces no more than five crocodile bags of this size a year. It is estimated to sell for £15,000 - £18,000.
Christie's is also offering Hermes bags during the Interiors sale in New York, December 18-19. A bright orange Hermes Kelly bag is estimated to sell for $4,000-$6,000. The Kelly bag has been a prized classic for decades and never goes out of fashion.

Dal 1 al 30 giugno, presso la galleria d’arte torinese Confraternita degli Artisti di via della Consolata 5, due mie fotografie verranno esposte nell’ambito della mostra collettiva Alice nel paese delle meraviglie. Una delle due è questa, visibile in originale anche qui.
Una seconda copia di questa fotografia, stampata fine-art su tela da Danilo Vivian, è da oggi, per sette giorni, all’asta su eBay. La tela non è montata su alcun tipo di supporto per contenere le spese di spedizione. Le dimensioni sono 40x40 cm.
Il 25% del ricavo andrà in beneficienza al Sophie's Fund, un fondo che intende aiutare una bambina statunitense di un anno malata di leucemia, fondo al quale ho già donato tre fotografie senza scopo di lucro.
Il vincitore dell’asta riceverà la tela accompagnata da un certificato di garanzia firmato da me. Sul retro della tela verrà posto un ologramma a siglarne l’autenticità.
Il pagamento dovrà avvenire tramite Paypal.
Comunicherò pubblicamente l’avvenuto trasferimento di denaro sul Sophie’s Fund.
Spero che questa mia iniziativa possa incontrare il vostro favore.
Grazie.

From june 1st to 30th, in the turinese art gallery Confraternita degli Artisti placed in via della Consolata 5, two photographs of mine will be displayed within the collective exhibition Alice in wonderland. One of these two is the one posted here, visible in original here too.
A second copy of this photograph, fine-art canvas print made by the masterful Danilo Vivian, will be a seven days long auction on eBay. The canvas comes unframed, to maintain low the shipping rates. Its dimension is 40x40 cm.
The 25% of the revenue will be devolved to Sophie's Fund, a fund that’s helping a leukemia affected american one-year-old girl. To this fund I’ve already donated three images with no-profit intentions.
The winner of this auction will receive the canvas accompanied by a warranty certificate signed by me. On the back of this canvas there’ll be also an hologram that certifies its autenticity.
Payment must be sent through Paypal only.
I will publicly tell about the money trasfer on Sophie’s Fund.
I sincerely hope to see my initiative encounters your good turn.
Thank you.
THIS WILL BE ON AUCTION! I will post the link on all these photos when the auction goes live...
This is a snippet of a page created by (looking through scans for names). I think her choice of the butterflies over the eyes, almost veil-like, was wonderful. Beautiful piece. :)
Everyone donated their extra pages (a participant dropped) so I made covers and some written content for a book to go on auction in benefit of Robin Whittemore's family. Robin lost her battle with breast cancer in July of this year and her family could use some help with the medical expenses. I encourage everyone in the art community to show their financial support of their fallen sister and help her family cope with what they are dealing with now.
At the last minute, I decided to make a quilt for the silent auction at my son's preschool. Quilt is totally inspired by this. Okay, so maybe slightly more than "inspired." Maybe I mean "nearly totally lifted". But I loved the quilt, I had oranges on hand, and it's gender neutral. I hope CrazyMomQuilts is okay with this. Finished size will be 41"x52". I reduced my bricks even further, to 3.5" for the white and 3.5"x6.5" for the colors.
I have completed my train MOC which I will be donating to this year's Esther Walner Charity Auction at Brickworld 2019. The auction item will include as seen here:
1. Santa Fe EMD F7A Warbonnet Locomotive with full power Function equipment and stickers by OKbrickworks. This model is 8-wide and is ready-to-run.
2. Santa Fe EMD F7B locomotive, unpowered, with stickers by OKbrickworks.
3. Power Functions remote.
4. USB drive (16 GB) with the PDF of the instructions for both locomotives
(Track not included)
Credit where credit is due, I would like to thank and recognize the following:
OKbrickworks - for not only donating the stickers for both locomotives, but for offering to sponsor the B unit, which prompted me to include it in the auction.
Nick O'Donnell - for donating a large chunk of the parts from his Bricklink shop - Cincinnati Brick Co.
Karl Joffre - for donating all of the Power Functions elements, allowing this model to be ready-to-run - motors, battery box, remote, everything.
And last but not least Nate Brill, who's peerless work on his NYC E unit windshield made my original MOC possible.
If you are attending Brickworld this year, I encourage you to attend, even if you have no interest in bidding. There has been discussion that if you are not attending, but know someone who is, you could bid by proxy. Bryan Bonahoom is happy to take your money (for charity, of course).
