Built 1879 as 3 shops for William Kither, architect Rowland Rees, replacing earlier premises on site. One shop was Kither’s butcher shop and the remaining two were occupied by various businesses, including dining rooms, fancy goods, confectioner, tailor, etc.

William Kither arrived in SA 1855 with his parents & siblings. He first worked for a draper before becoming an apprentice butcher. Later he encouraged his father to purchase the butcher shop. After his father’s death 1869 William with his mother Sarah ran the business as “S Kither & Son” until her death in 1875 when it was known as “W Kither”. He was the first to install refrigeration in 1884. After William’s death the business was carried on by his son Clarence Maturin Kither. The building was sold 1932 when Kither’s moved to King William Street.

Re-opened as Clarkson Ltd showrooms 5 Dec 1932, with architects Woods, Bagot, Laybourne-Smith & Irwin making the transformation, building purchased by Commonwealth Bank 1958, Clarksons leadlight & stained glass department closed 1960.

Polidoro da Caravaggio

(Polidoro Caldara, 1499 Caravaggio – 1543 Messina)

Natività con Magi

Olio su tela cm 95 x 84

Collezione Privata

  

Il chiarore lontano, livido e concentrico, di questo paesaggio all’imbrunire eseguito da Polidoro da Caravaggio, è carico di magiche atmosfere, dove luci azzurre e fredde di gusto nordico, si fondono con cupezze cineree e bagliori argentei dei cieli di Lombardia, mentre è prossimo l’abbraccio scuro della notte.

I contorni tenui di costruzioni grigio azzurre, case, abitazioni di un paese lontano, che si stagliano sulle rive di un lago, che entra nella costa, spinge, si insinua e diventa palude, simbolo di una vita che ritaglia il suo spazio faticosamente, in un territorio duro e difficile, sono la risposte più appropriate di Polidoro alle pacate rappresentazioni classiche del maestro Raffaello.

 

Storie incantate, poesie senza tempo, favole disarmanti e letali, che nella loro istintiva vaghezza, ubriacano e rapiscono l’anima di chi le guarda.

 

L’evidente cultura figurativa lombarda di questa “Natività con Magi” eseguita da Polidoro Caldara da Caravaggio probabilmente tra il 1520 ed il 1525 traspare chiara tanto quanto le forti contaminazioni venete e fiamminghe.

Raffaello Sanzio e la cultura classica, sono visti e rivisitati con gli occhi ed il pennello di un giovane lombardo che ben si era formato tra Brescia, Bergamo e Milano, a stretto contatto con le opere di Vincenzo Foppa, Bernardino Butinone, Bernardo Zenale, Bergognone, Zanetto Bugatto, Leonardo, Bramante.

 

La dolcezza disarmante del San Giuseppe, inginocchiato su un solo ginocchio, col bastone fiorito tra le mani, avviluppato nel suo ampio mantello giallo limone dalla serica brillantezza, che qua e la lascia intravedere la sottostante tunica di uno intenso blu cobalto, dai lineamenti molto simili alla dolente dalla tunica limone sulla estrema sinistra del “Trasporto di Cristo al sepolcro” conservato nel Museo di Capodimonte di Napoli , ben contrasta con l’austera figura della Madonna dalla luminosa veste violetta, quasi plissettata, con strette maniche dai morbidi risvolti all’altezza dei polsi, volutamente in evidente risalto cromatico tra le abbondanti pieghe dello scuro e digradante manto di gusto fiammingo, dalla classica forma piramidale, che ci riporta bruscamente alla “Madonna tra i Santi” conservata nella prima cappella del Santuario di Santa Maria dei Miracoli e San Celso a Milano, o all’ “Adorazione dei Pastori” e la “Madonna del Velo! conservate nella Pinacoteca di Brera eseguite da Ambrogio da Fossano, meglio conosciuto come il Bergognone.

 

Giovan Paolo Lomazzo, suo conterraneo, nella sua “Idea del Tempio della Pittura” del 1590 lo colloca tra i “Sette Governatori dell’Arte” accanto a Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Raffaello Sanzio, Andrea Mantegna, Tiziano Vecellio e Gaudenzio Ferrari.

Per Giorgio Vasari, mai troppo tenero nel valutare pittori al difuori di Umbria e Toscana, era un genio, inarrivabile nel eseguire ruderi dall’antico, sassi, pietre, macchie d’alberi e paesi e non perché avesse studiato o fatto pratica nelle accademie, ma perché era naturale, nato pittore, dotato da madre natura.

 

Nella complessità iconografica della composizione di quest’opera, vero capolavoro figurativo dell’arte rinascimentale lombarda ma già permeata delle più ricercate ed originali novità estetiche romane dell’epoca,, proposte dagli amici e quasi coetanei Giulio Romano e Perin del Vaga, si conferma infatti un punto di rottura decisivo con l’insegnamento raffaellesco.

 

Il moltiplicarsi dei diversi piani di visione con tanti diversi soggetti nello stesso dipinto, creano tanti piccoli quadri nello stesso quadro, con un artificioso e ricercato effetto luministico, dove il chiarore si diffonde prima tenue e poi esplode in fortissimi contrasti chiaroscurali, spesso provenienti da diverse fonti di luce, in una teatralità di effetti pienamente manieristi.

  

Pietre minuziosamente definite, sassi, rocce, erbette, foglie, verzure, piccoli arbusti, alberelli finissimi eseguiti in punta di pennello , piante lontane, l’edera che si avviluppa lungo le chiare colonne avorio di forma rettangolare dai bianchi capitelli, che terminano con volte spezzate, già consumate e tramutate dal tempo in fascinosi ruderi antichi, ma ancora abbastanza possenti e forti per sopportare il peso di lunghe canne e bastoni incrociati coperti da paglia e fogliame, telaio improvvisato di un umile tetto, da cui traspaiono violenti lampi di luce tra cupe zone d’ombra, sorretto in angolo da una lunga asta verticale, piantata nel terreno con un cuneo di legno conficcato alla sua base, per meglio fissarla.

La cesta abilmente intrecciata, altri ruderi e un paravento forse ligneo dai contorni frastagliati, blocchi di roccia di una scoscesa parete alle spalle di san Giuseppe, i rametti lunghi e sottili pieni di affusolate foglioline delle fascine raccolte sotto il leggero candido drappo su cui è adagiato il luminoso e giocoso Gesù Bambino

Magi eleganti e ben rifiniti, in abiti sfarzosi dai tessuti ricchi e damascati, infilati nei loro splendidi calzari, agghindati con corone, turbanti, spade decorate e fini speroni, con tutti i loro doni in mano, raccolti ed assorti in una intensa conversazione rimirando la stella cometa che li ha condotti, un altro drappello poco lontano di colorate figure vocianti, già più abbozzate e prossime ad un primo declivio, fino ai bagliori lontani del resto della carovana; cavalieri e pedoni, piccole figure eseguite con pennellate molto più sciolte e sfrangiate che, alle pendici di monti e di rocce fantastiche, scoscese, allungate ed oblique come slanciati pennacchi, si apprestano a preparare il bivacco per la nottata.

 

Mentre nella improvvisata stalla dal forte sapore di antico, in un antro creato ad arte tra le alte colonne romane, il dolce asinello che guarda il Bambino e,, poco sopra, lui, meraviglioso, il bue.

Poco considerato, nascosto e in disparte,, lui da sempre ci sta osservando e ci controlla. guardando negli occhi noi, spettatori curiosi e sconosciuti, posti al i fuori, all'esterno, al di là del quadro..

Ultima invenzione di puro capriccio e stravaganza di un grande pittore lombardo, nella Roma di Leone X e di Raffaello:

Polidoro Caldara da Caravaggio.

  

Polidoro da Caravaggio (Polidoro Caldara, 1499 Caavaggio - 1543 Messina)

"Nativity with Magi"

Oil on canvas cm 95 x 84

Private Collections

 

The distant, livid and concentric light of this landscape at dusk executed by Polidoro da Caravaggio, is full of magical atmospheres, where blue and cold lights of Nordic taste, blend with the ashen gloom and silvery glow of the skies of Lombardy, while it is next to the dark embrace of the night.

 

The soft outlines of gray-blue buildings, houses, dwellings of a distant country, which stand out on the shores of a lake, which enters the coast, pushes, creeps and becomes a swamp, symbol of a life that painstakingly carves out its space, in a hard and difficult territory, are Polidoro's most appropriate responses to the calm classical representations of the master Raphael.

 

Enchanted stories, timeless poems, disarming and lethal fables, which in their instinctive vagueness, drunk and kidnap the soul of the beholder.

 

The evident Lombard figurative culture of this "Nativity with Magi" performed by Polidoro Caldara da Caravaggio probably between 1520 and 1525 is as clear as the strong Venetian and Flemish influences.

 

Raffaello Sanzio and classical culture are seen and revisited with the eyes and brush of a young Lombard who was well trained between Brescia, Bergamo and Milan, in close contact with the works of Vincenzo Foppa, Bernardino Butinone, Bernardo Zenale, Bergognone , Zanetto Bugatto, Leonardo da Vinci, Bramante.

 

The disarming sweetness of the kneeling Saint Joseph, with a flowered stick in his hands, enveloped in his large lemon yellow cloak with a silky shine, which here and there lets you glimpse the underlying tunic of an intense cobalt blue, with features very similar to the woman in pain with the lemon tunic on the far left of the "Christ Taken to the Tomb", the picture with the transport of Christ to the sepulcher preserved in the Capodimonte Museum in Naples, it contrasts well with the austere figure of the Madonna with a luminous violet robe, almost pleated, with narrow sleeves with soft cuffs, deliberately in evident chromatic prominence among the abundant folds of the dark and sloping Flemish-style mantle, with a classic pyramidal shape, which brings us back to the "Madonna among the Saints" preserved in the first chapel of the Sanctuary of Santa Maria dei Miracoli and San Celso in Milan, or to the “Adoration of the Shepherds” and the “Madonna del Velo! preserved in the Pinacoteca di Brera executed by Ambrogio da Fossano, better known as the Bergognone.

 

Giovan Paolo Lomazzo, his countryman, in his "Idea of ​​the Temple of Painting" of 1590 places him among the "Seven Governors of Art" alongside Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Raffaello Sanzio, Andrea Mantegna, Tiziano Vecellio and Gaudenzio Ferrari.

 

For Giorgio Vasari, never too tender in evaluating painters outside of Umbria and Tuscany, he was a genius, unattainable in making ancient ruins, stones, patches of trees and villages and not because he had studied or practiced in academies, but because he was natural, born a painter, gifted by mother nature.

 

In the iconographic complexity of the composition of this work, a true figurative masterpiece of Lombard Renaissance art but already permeated with the most sought-after and original Roman aesthetic innovations of the time, proposed by friends and almost contemporaries Giulio Romano and Perin del Vaga, it is in fact confirmed a decisive breaking point with Raphael's teaching.

 

The multiplication of the different planes of vision with many different subjects in the same painting, creates many small paintings in the same painting, with an artificial and refined lighting effect, where the light first spreads faintly and then explodes in very strong chiaroscuro contrasts, often coming from different light sources, in a theatricality of fully mannerist effects.

Harry Baur (1880-1943) was a famous French film and stage actor. Directed by directors as wide-ranging as Julien Duvivier, Raymond Bernard, Abel Gance, Marcel L'Herbier, Pierre Chenal, Robert Siodmak and Maurice Tourneur, he switched just as easily from père Lepic of Poil de carotte, to commissaire Maigret, Jean Valjean from Les Misérables, judge Porphyre from Crime et chatiment, Hérode, Tarass Boulba, Beethoven, captain Mollenard, czar Paul I, Rasputin, and Volpone.

 

Henri-Marie Rodolphe Baur, better known as Harry Baur, was born on 12 April 1880 in Paris. His parents were catholic people from the Alsace, his father from Mulhouse, and his mother from Bitche en Moselle. They were ruined after theft and had to move to ever more modest dwellings. Baur’s father died when Harry was 10, so his mother and his sister Blanche raised him. He first did college at Saint-Nazaire. To escape the religious education his family wanted him to take, he fled to Marseille and joined the rugby team of the XVth Olympic Games in Marseille. Here he started studies at the École d'Hydrographie and enrolled in various odd jobs such as peddler, carter, braider of funeral wreaths, etc. Slowly he managed to start a career as a stage actor. As he was refused at the Conservatoire in Paris, he took private lessons. He first enlisted at the Comédie Mondaine in 'Le Filleul du 31', then received his first awards for tragedy in 'Le Cid' and for comedy with 'L'Avare' at the Conservatoire in Marseille, while he did military service in Le Mans. He became the secretary of the famous actor-director Mounet-Sully. From 1904 on, he played in numerous Parisian theatres: Comédie Mondaine, Grand Guignol, Palais-Royal, and Mathurins; later he also played with Gémier and Antoine. Because of a beginning facial paralysis, he didn’t have to do service when war broke out in 1914, so he continued to play at the Gaîté-Lyrique, the Ambigu, the Porte Saint-Martin, the Gymnase, the Édouard VII, the Variétés, etc. Baur also collaborated as a film reviewer for Crapouillot, under the pseudonym of Orido de Fhair. By the early 1910s, Baur had become not only a man of substance in the diversity of his career but also physically. Between 1909 and 1914, Harry Baur performed in almost 30 silent films. He started at Eclair with Beethoven (1908) by Victorin Jasset, but worked at Pathé as well from 1909, a.o. in the Vidoq films (1909-1911), and the Film d’art films such as L’Assommoir (Albert Capellani 1909) after Zola. At Eclair he worked a.o. with director Maurice Tourneur in Monsieur Lecoq (1914). With Mistinguett, Baur played in Fleur de Paris (André Hugon 1916) and Chignon d’or (André Hugon 1916), with Albert Dieudonné in Sous la griffe (Diedonné 1921), and in La voyante (Leon Abrams, Louis Mercaton 1923) he played opposite Sarah Bernhardt. Between 1924 and the arrival of French sound film Baur was away from the screen and focused on the stage. In 1910 Baur married actress Rose Cremer, known as Rose Grande, and they had three children. In 1931, Rose Grande died during a trip to Algeria. Baur then married Rika Radifé, a stage actress as well, and of Turkish origin (her real name was Rebecca Behar).

 

In late 1931 Baur started a triumph with his interpretation of César in Marcel Pagnol’s play Fanny, the sequel to his Marius. Baur had substituted the great actor Raimu in this role and would become a fierce competitor to Raimu all through the 1930s, both on stage and on the silver screen. Earlier that year 1931 one of Baur’s first sound films had been released: David Golder, directed by Julien Duvivier, who supposedly had brought Baur back to the screen – Duvivier was Baur’s most important director in the 1930s. The timing of David Golder is not entirely clear, as in 1931 Baur also went to London to act in an early French talkie shot there at British International Pictures: Le cap perdu by E.A. Dupont, a multilingual. While Le cap perdu remains forgotten, David Golder, about a Jewish banker betrayed, was a huge success in France at the time. And this even when it was almost shot like a silent film, at the Basque Coast. It was a clever streak for Duvivier to relaunch Baur with this topic as Harry Baur had already been successful in a stage version of it at the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin in Paris. In March 1931, the moment David Golder was released in France, Baur started production for Jean Kemm’s Le juif polonais (1931), about a man who is haunted by his murder; the film was all created for Baur to excel but it wasn’t as lucrative as David Golder. After this followed Criminel (1932) by Jack Forrester, in which Baur was a prison warden, while a debuting Jean Servais played an innocently condemned young man who is involved in a crime within the prison.

 

After this, Baur played in three films by Julien Duvivier. The first was Les cinq gentlemen maudits (1932) with René Lefèvre and Robert Le Vigan. Parallel Duvivier shot a German version with Adolf Wohlbruck, Camilla Horn, and Jack Trevor. Exteriors were shot at Fez, Marrakech and Moulay-Idriss. The press praised Duvivier’s taste for atmosphere, picturesque and exoticism. Next was the adaptation of Jules Renard’s novel Poil de Carotte, with Harry Baur as the unforgettable Monsieur Lepic next to the young Robert Lynen (they shared the same destiny, as Lynen was a member of the Resistance in the war, who was imprisoned in 1943 and executed by the Germans in 1944). For his sound version of Poil de Carotte Duvivier borrowed from other works of Renard as well, such as La Bigote. In 1926 Duvivier had already made a silent version with André Heuzé as Poil de Carotte and Henry Krauss as M. Lepic. Harry Baur had a very precise idea of how to play Lepic and was a perfectionist in his creation. Poil de Carotte had a prosperous release in Paris in November 1932, with praise for Harry Baur. Not wanting to let go of his star Duvivier had Baur play commissaire Maigret in La tête d’un homme (1932). While Simenon thought Baur was too old for the part, too tragic, the film is considered one of the best adaptations.

 

In 1932 Baur played Monsieur de Tréville, captain of the King’s guards in the very flourishing sound version of Les trois mousquetaires (1932) shot by the same Henri Diamant-Berger, who had done a silent version a decade before; then a serial in 12 episodes, now a two-part sound version, entitled Les ferrets de la reine and Milady. Baur was coupled with Pierre Blanchar in Cette vieille canaille (Anatole Litvak 1933) and again in Crime et chatiment (1935) by Pierre Chenal. While Baur did not convince as a clochard who is a distant relative of the Rothschild family in Rotchild (Marco de Gastyne 1933), he came back full fling as Jean Valjean in Raymond Bernard’s adaptation of Victor Hugo’s classic novel Les Misérables, shot in 1933. For six months shooting took place in Paris and the South of France. Costars were Charles Vanel as Javert and Josseline Gael as Cosette. Because of its length, the film was released in two parts. It became Baur’s best-performed film performance and some say the best film interpretation of Hugo’s famous character. Because of the European success, Baur received Hollywood offers but declined; he didn’t want to leave Paris.

 

After two lesser films, Un homme en or by Jean Dréville, and Le greluchon delicat by Jean Choux, Baur was going places with Les nuits moscovites (Alexis Granowski 1934), based on a novel by Pierre Benoit, and marking the debut of Neapolitan singer-actor Tino Rossi. Harry Baur played a course, rich Russian wheat trader, opposite Annabella and Pierre-Richard Wilm. The success of the film caused producers to offer Baur one ‘Russian’ film after another. At the time films shot by and with fled White Russians were popular in France. After that it is time to play Herod in Duvivier’s Golgotha (1935), co-starring Jean Gabin as Pontius Pilate, Robert le Vigan as Jesus and Edwige Feuillère as Claudia Procula. General Production offered Baur in 1935 the part of Judge Porphyre in Pierre Chenal’s Crime et chatiment, based on Dostoyevsky's novel. The confrontation between Baur and Pierre Blanchar was the climax of this thriving film, which launched the career of Chenal in the 1930s. Blanchar obtained an award in Venice for his part, while the sets were highly stylized, inspired by German Expressionism. This might have inspired Duvivier to do a remake of the Expressionist classic Der Golem by Paul Wegener: Le Golem (1935), with Baur playing Emperor Rudolph and with shooting at studios in Prague, where the story takes place. Baur then went to London for an English version of Nuits moscovites, Moscow Nights (1935), shot by Anthony Asquith. In 1935 Maurice Tourneur, with whom Baur had worked together in the 1910s, shot Samson (released in France in 1936), a modern drama based on a play by Henry Bernstein that already had been adapted for silent cinema before and involved adultery and the power of money. Gaby Morlay and Baur were the central couple whose silences were as telling as their words. Costars were André Luguet, Gabrielle Dorziat, André Lefaur, and Suzy Prim. Then it was imperial Russia time again with Les yeux noirs (Viktor Tourjansky 1936) with Baur and Simone Simon, before moving over to the Hungarian steppes for Alexis Granowsky’s direction of Tarass Boulba (1936), based on Gogol’s novel and adapted by French author Pierre Benoît. It was both critically and commercially Baur’s biggest success since Les Misérables. The wild and intense portrait of Boulba by Baur impressed audiences; the role matched him perfectly.

 

For Les hommes nouveaux (1936), director Marcel L’Herbier shot the first documentary part on the pacification of Morocco with actor Gabriel Signoret made up as marshal Lyautey, whom all thought had a striking resemblance. Baur had a supporting part as Maurice de Tolly, inspector general. While the film was a clear colonial product, L’Herbier’s most important drive was to ignite the fire of national patriotism in light of the growing German military force. While a young Jean Marais had one of his first roles here, his main co-stars were Nathalie Paley and Signoret. While the film Paris (Jean Choux 1936) disappointed audiences as a too old-fashioned melodrama about a taxi driver who despairs when a young well-to-do abandons his child. Instead, Abel Gance gave Baur a great part in the title role of Un grand amour de Beethoven (1936), a character Baur had played in his first film. In 1936 Jacques de Baroncelli did a remake of his own Nitchevo (1926), a silent film about a submarine, then with Vanel as the commander, now with Baur. After a break in Italy, Duvivier asked Baur to play a man turned Dominican monk in his well-known bitter film Un carnet de bal (1937). In the film, a young widow (Marie Bell) revisits the dancers from her old booklet, but they are all disappointments. The film was a worldwide success and was awarded the Coppa Mussolini for the best foreign film in Venice. Next Baur took the boat to Algeria for the shooting of Sarati le Terrible by André Hugon, in which Baur played a sordid brute, who rules the underworld of the docks in Algiers. He remained within the exotic with his part as an Arabian sheikh in West Africa in Les secrets de la Mer Rouge (Richard Pottier 1937). In 1937 two more films followed, which were both released the year after. First another old Russian story, Nostalgie (1938) by again Tourjansky, and then Mollenard (1938) by Robert Siodmak, a Shanghai set film shot at Dunkerque, with the help of set designer Alexandre Trauner. Mollenard was one of the finest films of the era and meant a memorable part for Baur. Young Robert Lynen again played his son. Siodmak faced many problems during the making of this film: he lost good money over the competition with Duvivier on the adaptation rights, he had trouble finding producers, and at the start of shooting Baur had a heart attack, though without consequences. A third film that started in 1937 but was released in 1938 was L’Herbier’s production La tragédie impériale (1938), on the life of Rasputin and his power during the reign of the last czar Nicolas II. Baur had made a considerable study of his character; he also wore false high heels in his shoes and lost considerable weight to look more like his character.

 

While during the mid-1930s Baur had been extremely active, in 1938 he did less, perhaps warned by his attack. That year he completed his cycle of ‘Russian’ films with Maurice Tourneur’s remake of The Patriot (1938), about the last days of the mad czar Paul I. In 1928 Ernst Lubitsch had done a silent version with Emil Jannings in the lead, it won an Academy Award for the best scenario. In March-April 1939 the exteriors were shot for Jacques de Baroncelli’s film L’homme du Niger were shot in Sudan, under great difficulty. The film was selected for the first Cannes Film Festival of 1939, but because of the war that never took place. Baur left Sudan to go to Casablanca where Jean Dréville waited for him to perform in Le président Haudecoeur (1940). After that interiors were shot at the studios of Marcel Pagnol. The film came out on French screens on 11 April 1940. When France entered the world war most film shootings stopped temporarily. Many actors were mobilised but not all, so work could be done on the film Volpone (1940), directed by Tourneur, based on Ben Jonson’s classic text and released in Paris on 10 May 1941. The German army occupied Paris in June 1940. Film activities were slowed down but theatres reopened, so Baur went to the Théâtre du Gymnase for a reprisal of Jazz, directed by Pagnol. During a large orchestrated campaign from late 1940-early 1941, Harry Baur was heavily criticized by the right-wing anti-semitic press, accusing him of being a Jew and a Freemason. As much as he could Baur explained his Christian roots. The first film produced by Continental Films, the German film company active in France during the war, was L’assassinat du père Noël (Christian Jaque 1941). Hidden intentions were discovered in the dialogues written by Charles Spaak. Harry Baur had a grand part in the film as père Cornusse, maker of maps of the world. His co-stars were Raymond Rouleau and Renée Faure. In 1941 Tourneur asked Baur the last time for his film Pechés de jeunesse. Then things go wrong when Baur goes to Germany to play the male lead in a German production, Symphonie eines Leben (Heinz Bertram 1942), co-starring Henny Porten and Gisela Uhlen. The shootings took place from February to May 1942. In the meantime, the French slander of Baur being a Jew reaches Goebbels as well and in May 1942 Baur and his second wife are arrested. Baur is questioned, tortured and imprisoned. In September 1942 he is released, weighing just 40 kilos instead of around 100. He never recovers from his torture and dies on 8 April 1943 in Paris. NB French Wikipedia states he was only released just before his death, to die at his home. This is also what Hal Erickson writes; Erickson also writes the couple was arrested during the shooting in Berlin; first Rika as she was Jewish, then Harry trying to defend her. Cinememorial instead claims they were arrested in Paris by the Gestapo. Baur’s funeral took place at the church of St. Philippe du Roule and attracted the Tout-Paris of screen and stage. He was buried at the cimetière Saint-Vincent in Montmartre, where his tomb still attracts visitors. Baur’s wife Rika survived the German maltreatment. In 1953 she took over the Theatre des Maturins in Paris and ran it for decades.

 

PS Strangely enough, English Wikipedia apparently still pursues the nazi rumour that Baur was Jewish, while all other sources deny this. English Wikipedia also claims he was tortured to death, which is not exactly true as well. French and German Wikipedia mixed up dates: they state that Symphonie eines Lebens, once finished in September 1942, did not stop Baur to play, while a little lower they also state that in May 1942 Baur was arrested and was released in September 1942 as a total wreck. Filmportal.de indicates the dates for the shooting of Symphonie eines Lebens, while German Wikipedia also writes that director Bertram was expelled from the Reichskulturkammer that year. Finally, German IMDb states the film had its German premiere on 21 April 1943, just a few days after Baur died, so he never saw the film finished.

FUNDACION UNION ATLETICO MARACAIBO

ASOCIACION CIVIL UNION ATLETICO MARACAIBO

 

HISTORIA DEL EQUIPO

 

El 16 de enero del año 2001, es la fecha considerada como la del inicio del Unión Atlético Maracaibo, pues fue ese día, cuando a las seis de la mañana, saltaron a la cancha La Victoria, vestidos de uniformes rojos y azules, los dirigidos por Freddy Ellie, primer técnico de un cuadro que antes de adaptar tal nombre pasó por otras alternativas como el Unión Atlético Zulia, Unión Maracaibo entre otras.

 

Muchos intentos fallidos hubo en la región zuliana a la hora de conformar un equipo o club de fútbol profesional, durante décadas se intentó pero a la larga aquellos primeros equipos terminaron desapareciendo del ambiente futbolístico del país.

 

A finales del año 99 principios del año 2000, aparece Zulianos FC, quien venía de la ciudad de Cumana con el nombre de Nueva Cádiz. Este equipo llega a la ciudad gracias al esfuerzo del Gobernador de turno en aquel momento, Zulianos llegaba con nombres que hoy en día son conocidos dentro del mundo futbolístico. Podemos decir que César Farias (actual director técnico de la vinotinto) era el técnico de este equipo, y que jugadores como Pedro De Pablos, Alexander “El pequeño” Rondón, Jhonny “Speddy” González y la estrella Juan Arango hicieron del Pachencho Romero su casa y defendieron los colores de la ciudad con gran orgullo.

 

Zulianos decide marchase a la costa oriental del Lago, y es allí donde logra el ascenso a la primera división, reto que por motivos económicos no puede asumir y es allí cuando el Unión Atlético Maracaibo compra los derechos y se estrena en la primera división para cosechar los 8 años de vida con los que cuenta hasta hoy.

 

LOS TITULOS

 

Muy sufrido

Un gol de Matías Milozzi fue el cerrojo al primer título del Unión Atlético Maracaibo, labrado en el Torneo Clausura del 2003.

 

Maracaibo había empatado 0-0 en la antepenúltima fecha ante Trujillanos FC, punto que le dio el liderato sobre Italchacao. Luego, de local, se impuso 2-0 a Estudiantes en la penúltima jornada, quedando con la misma ventaja sobre el equipo de la capital.

 

En la última fecha tocó cerrar contra Deportivo Táchira en el estadio Pueblo Nuevo.

  

La urgencia de victoria imperaba para no depender del resultado de Italchacao.Milozzi abrió la cuenta en el minuto 27, tras pase de Diron Pérez, colocando el 0-1 suficiente, para aguantar el resultado y dar la vuelta olímpica en Pueblo Nuevo.

 

Viniendo de atrás

 

Unión arrancó el Torneo Apertura 2004 en el último lugar con par de derrotas. Todo indicaba a que se tendría un torneo parecido al Clausura pasado donde se llegó séptimo.

 

El cambio de técnico no se hizo esperar. Tras cuatro fechas y apenas dos puntos, Carlos Maldonado sustituyó a Raúl Cavallieri. De allí en adelante Maracaibó hilvanó una seguidilla de 14 partidos sin perder, subiendo los nueve escalones necesarios para ser campeón en ña última fecha. En ella Caracas FC, ex líder, caía 3-1 ante Italchacao, mientras que Unión hacía su trabajo en Maturín, venciendo 2-1 a Monagas SC con tantos de Juan Fuenmayor y Giancarlo Maldonado a pase del “loco” Dioni Guerra.

 

De punta a punta

 

El tercer torneo no fue tan agónico.

 

El Clausura 2004 fue la ratificación de un grupo catalogado como invencible, por todo lo que consiguió. Unión tomó la punta desde la primera fecha, venciendo a Táchira y de allí en adelante ligó 12 fechas más sin caer, para llegar a 26 (sumadas con las del torneo anterior), una menos que el récord que tiene el extinto Deportivo Portugués.

El título se logró en el clásico ante Italmaracaibo, ante una torrencial lluvia. El 3-1 hizo delirar al Pachencho Romero con un cetro que se logró en una fecha antes del final de la competencia.

 

Otra vez al templo

 

Prácticamente con la misma plantilla, Maracaibo salía como favorito en el Clausura 2005.

 

Apenas dos partidos se perdieron de los 18 jugados. La competencia cuerpo a cuerpo con Táchira y Caracas FC fue cerrada hasta llegar a la fecha 16 cuando ante un repleto Pueblo Nuevo, ya que los aurinegros tenían opción a título, Maracaibo volvió a ganar otro torneo.

 

Era el minuto 47 cuando André “Varilla” González cabeceó un tiro esquina desde la derecha. La pelota en el fondo de la red signifcó otro 1-0 en San Cristóbal que a la postre amplió la diferencia de 7 a 10 puntos entre uno y otro equipo.

Maracaibo nuevamente era campeón antes de finalizar el torneo con dos fechas anticipadas.

    

El Campeonato

 

Sin Final…

Unión Atlético Maracaibo logró el campeonato absoluto de la temporada 2004-2005.

 

Tras haberse alzado como Campeón en el Apertura 2004 y Clausura 2005, el Bicolor no tuvo la necesidad de disputar la final con ningún equipo para obtener el Campeonato Absoluto mejor conocido como la Estrella.

 

Con Pellicer

 

En enero del 2007 llega al U. A. Maracaibo el estratega chileno Jorge Pellicer.

 

Con una plantilla desconocida por el nuevo cuerpo técnico, se conformó el renovado equipo que salió nuevamente Campeón.

 

Unión debía ganar en la última jornada por diferencia de dos goles ante Caracas F.C., ya que el equipo dirigido por Pellicer se encontraba en el segundo lugar por debajo de los capitalinos.

 

En el Pachencho Romero y ante 35 mil personas aproximadamente, UAM le ganó 3-1 al Caracas F.C. con goles de Luís Vallenilla Pacheco en dos ocasiones y Guillermo Beraza, desatando la algarabía del pueblo zuliano que se lanzó al campo de juego para festejar el título de Campeón.

  

Copa Libertadores

 

El UAM ha participado en 4 ocasiones en la Copa Libertadores de América. Durante éstas participaciones el equipo rojiazul ha conseguido logros importantes para el fútbol venezolano aunque no ha podido trascender de la fase de grupos.

 

En la edición del 2004, el equipo debutó con empate 1-1 ante Vélez Sarfield de Argentina con tanto de Enrique Colliard, en el estadio José Amalfitani de la ciudad bonarense.

 

Sorprendentemente Maracaibo quedó segundo de su grupo, con ocho puntos detrás del después campeón de la Libertadores, Once Caldas.

 

Frente a otro campeón

 

En la edición del 2006, Maracaibo debutó con empate 1-1 ante Internacional de Porto Alegre, equipo que después se coronaría.

 

Al igual que en el 2004, Maracaibo logró ocho puntos, quedando tercero con uno menos que Nacional de Montevideo.

 

La victoria ante Pumas de la Unam (0-1 y 3-1), en México, aparte del empate frente a Internacional fue lo más destacado del Bicolor.

 

Animaron

 

La edición del 2007 apenas tuvo las alegrías de los empates (1-1 y 2-2) frente al boliviano Real Potosí.

 

La suerte no le sonrió cuando se enfrentó al Atlético Paranaense y Flamengo.

 

Ante los brasileños se perdió todos los partidos tanto de local como de visitante.

 

Muy complicado

 

En la edición del 2008, tocó jugar ante Boca Juniors, Atlas de México y Colo Colo de Chile.

 

El empate 1-1 ante Boca ilusionó a toda la afición marabina después de un golazo de Miguel Mea Vitali que tuvo al equipo arriba a falta de ocho minutos para el final del partido.

 

Caídas ante Colo Colo (1-3 y 2-0) sacaron al Bicolor de la competencia, hecho que se terminó de consumar con la goleda que le dio Atlas (3-0) en Guadalajara y el empate (1-1) ante ese mismo equipo. La caída 3-0 ante Boca en La bombonera, ante 50 fanáticos que viajaron a Buenos Aires, fue un trámite que solo sirvió para clasificar a los xeneinses a la segunda ronda.

 

8 AÑOS DE EXISTENCIA EN MI VIDA, VIENDOLO CRECER.

8 AÑOS LLENOS DE ALEGRIAS COMO TAMBIEN LAGRIMAS, DERROTAS PERO ES PARTE DE LA EXPERIENCIA QUE HACE VALORAR LAS COSAS Y HACE CRECER UN SENTIMIENTO CON VALORES INEXPLICABLES; QUE SOLO ENTIENDE QUIEN LO SIENTE!

 

"TE AMO BICOLOR! ... NO SABES CUANTO MIEDO TENGO DE PERDERTE" :`(

Julio Baptista para cobar el penal

     

Un partido abierto con estrellas de varias nacionalidades que en apenas cuarenta y cinco minutos convirtieron once goles de bonita factura. En la primera llegada del equipo de Ronaldinho un pase medido a Junior Baiano (m.2) llegó el primer tanto, que definió por arriba en la salida del "Pato" Abbondanzieri. La presión de los brasileños concretó poco después el segundo tanto de Vampeta (m.5), que colocó en la red de los Amigos de Messi el parcial 2-0.

 

En la siguiente jugada, el delantero uruguayo Sebastián "Loco" Abreu (m.6), de cabeza, descontó para el equipo de Messi. Ronaldinho Gaúcho (m.11), con una exquisita definición frente al guardameta argentino, aumentó las cifras. Abreu llegó a la red a los 15 minutos, pero el árbitro Horacio Elizondo lo anuló por estar en fuera de juego. Junior Baiano (m.16) y el jugador del Real Madrid Julio Batista (m.18), de penalti, anotaron el parcial 5-1. La reacción de los Amigos de Messi no se hizo esperar, con cuatro tantos consecutivos ante el delirio de los casi 35.000 espectadores.

 

El primer gol lo puso D'Alessandro

 

Esta fiesta de goles la inició Andrés D'Alessandro (m.26) antes que un aficionado entrara al terreno de juego para abrazar a Messi. El uruguayo Abreu (m.28), de penalti, D'Alessandro (m 29) y Lionel Messi (m.31), sellaron el parcial 5-5. La presión bajó tras la igualdad aunque Messi (m.34) estrelló un nuevo remate en el poste izquierdo de Pesoña. Al final de primer tiempo, un gran pase de Ronaldinho a Julio Baptista (m.45) para que la figura madridista anotara su segundo tanto de la noche.

 

Comenzando el segundo tiempo, el venezolano Giancarlo Maldonado casi empata para los Amigos de Messi al estrellar un remate en el travesaño. El ingresado delantero argentino Leandro Lázzaro (m.51) logró el tanto del empate 6-6 y dos minutos más tarde, Ronaldinho (m.53) dio la ventaja para su equipo. Con varios cambios en el partido, junto con el reingreso de Palermo y D'Alessandro, nuevamente Lázzaro (m.60), de cabeza, igualó el encuentro.

 

Los Amigos de Messi presionaron por la victoria donde los venezolanos Maldonado y Arango, con un tiro libre, tuvieron sendas ocasiones para desequilibrar. Ésta fue la segunda edición después de la celebrada el pasado mes de diciembre en San Luis (Argentina), con victoria de Messi 1-0.

Cuando llegaron las niñas del ballet, luego de darle besos al Papa, lo

de una tribu amazónica, uno de los cuales le dio a Francisco su cocar -un

César Eduardo González Amais (Maturin, Venezuela, 1 de octubre de 1982), futbolista venezolano. Apodado "Maestrico", juega de mediocampista y su equipo actual es el Club Atlético Huracán, de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, Argentina, que milita en Primera División.

 

César González inició la práctica del fútbol desde muy pequeño cuando sus padres lo incribieron en la escuela de fútbol menor Joaquín Da Silva "Fariñas", donde comenzó a mostrar su talento.

 

Joaquín Da Silva fue técnico del club de la ciudad, el Monagas SC, y fue este mismo el que lo llevó a jugar en el mencionado club.

 

Jugó 4 temporadas desde el 2000 hasta 2004 con el Monagas Sport Club, donde mostró un gran juego y así comienzan a llamarle "Maestrico" ya que a su corta edad demostró un gran despliege futbolístico, esto lo lleva a ser visto por el club colombiano Atlético Huila, donde jugó la temporada 2004/2005 y también dio clases de buen fútbol. Esto llamó el interés de unos de los clubes más poderosos del mismo país (Colombia) como lo es el Deportivo Cali para jugar la temporada 2005/2006, en este club el "Maestrico" no tuvo mucha suerte y no vio muchos minutos de acción esto llevó a que regresara a Venezuela con el club capitalino el Caracas FC el cual compró el 50% de su pase para jugar la temporada 2006/2007, donde la mayoría de los venezolanos comenzaron a ver toda su calidad y fue catalogado como el mejor jugador del torneo Clausura. Con el Caracas ganó la Liga Venezolana y jugó la Copa Libertadores de América, donde llegó hasta los octavos de final, marcó dos goles y despertó el interés de varios clubes de América como el Santos FC y el Colón de Santa Fe.

1805. Napoleón domina Europa. Tan sólo Inglaterra se le resiste. Son tiempos de guerras napoleónicas, y ahora los mares y océanos se han convertido en un crucial y estratégico campo de batalla. En el océano Atlántico el navío de guerra inglés Surprise, capitaneado por "Lucky" Jack Aubrey (Crowe), es atacado de repente por un buque de guerra enemigo muy superior a él. Aubrey toma entonces una decisión memorable: a pesar de los graves daños sufridos por el Surprise y su fiel tripulación, entre los que se encuentra el cirujano Stephen Maturin (Bettany), decide navegar, asumiendo serios riesgos, a través de dos mares para interceptar y capturar a su enemigo. Es una misión que puede determinar el destino de una nación o destruir al capitán y a su tripulación, enfrentándose a un corsario mucho mejor armado e implacable, en una persecución por los mares que le lleva al otro lado del mundo.

Mi Obsesión al Igual que la de las personas en la foto es el Caracas Futbol Club (el rojo).... horas de viaje para la ciudad de Maturin para ir a verlo jugar creo que son una prueba de ello. Luego el viaje de regreso de 12 horas (debido a el desborde de un río) para ir directo a la univ, colegios, trabajos,etc lo reafirman... Asi como ir a otro pais y venir con una goleada 4 a 0 pero para luego hacer historia y ganarle a river en argentina y cucuta (de locales)... esta vez el resultado fue adverso pero ahi seguiré

Moisés: un niño

Moisés debe tener unos 8 años. Estudia segundo grado en unas de esas

escuelas parroquiales generosas de este país, que se han abierto para

recibir a los que no consiguieron entrar en los grandes planteles o para

aquellos que han botado de otras partes, como es el caso del pequeño

Moisés. Con historia difícil: pobreza, mucha pobreza, y maltrato, mucho

maltrato ,en su casa y en su anterior escuela.

 

Al comienzo del año escolar, Moisés era casi incontrolable: le daba

cabezazos a los compañeritos, pateaba la puerta del salón, alguna vez mordió

a la coordinadora, imposible pensar en que terminara una actividad

la

maestra Mary estuvo a punto de renunciar.Creo que no sirvo para esto

,comentó uno de esos días en los que había perdido la paciencia ante un

evento violento de Moisés. Pero, no hay duda, santo no es el perfecto ,sino

el pecador terco que se vuelve a levantar, como dijo Mandela alguna vez, y

Mary estaba decidida a levantarse muchas veces.

 

Las docentes de la pequeña escuela habían iniciado un proceso de Educación

para la Convivencia Pacífica, buscaban reducir la violencia en la escuela.

Había que hacer algo, o más bien, había que hacer m....

20Medalla%20de%20oro%E2%80%8F.jpg¿Usted es de los que cree que sólo Limardo

es nuestro campeón olímpico? Pues les informo que no es así, en Venezuela

tenemos un verdadero campeón merecedor de medalla de oro en varias

categorías: Jean Pierre Wysenbach,sacerdote jesuita, nacido en otros lares,

pero más venezolano que muchos, digno de un reconocimiento nacional.

 

Les cuento, Wyssen, como sele suele llamar, nació en el país vasco, pero se

vino muy joven a nuestro país:el11 de marzo de1960,recuerda él con

precisión.Ha vivido porlargas décadas en medio de

comunidadespopulares,primero en LaVega Caracas- y desdehace unos años,

tenemos la suerte, la gracia ,la bendición detenerlo en Maturín, con lo

cual su influencia milagrosa llega hasta Guayana.

 

¡Es todo un personaje! Memoria fotográfica, basta escuchar un dato y queda

impreso en su disco duro para siempre. Da clases de Teología

,escribetextos de Teología, pero en las escuelas le conocemos por sus

aportes en estas tres categorías olímpicas: categoría juegos

instructivos ,categoría Liceos de vacaciones y categoría Olimpíadas de

Lengua y Matem&aacu....

Al culminar este sábado su encuentro con la clase dirigente de Brasil, el

Papa Francisco recibió el saludo efusivo de diversas personas, especialmente

de las niñas de la escuela de danza del teatro municipal de Río de Janeiro,

una niña con síndrome de Down e indígenas brasileños.

 

Cuando llegaron las niñas del ballet, luego de darle besos al Papa, lo

rodearon y acompañaron un buen rato, para luego darle paso a cuatro miembros

de una tribu amazónica, uno de los cuales le dio a Francisco su cocar -un

adorno plumas- que el Pontífice no dudó en ponérselo en la cabeza.

 

Al culminar el acto en el Teatro Municipal, sonaron intensos aplausos y

vítores de Viva el Papa

El Papa Francisco alentó hoy a los obispos, sacerdotes, religiosos y

seminaristas que asistieron a la Misa

de esta mañana en la

Catedral de Río de Janeiro a que ayuden a los jóvenes a redescubrir la

alegría de la fe y promuevan con valentía la cultura del encuentro.

 

En una mañana que comenzó marcada por la lluvia y el frío pero que poco a

poco fue dando paso al habitual sol de Río de Janeiro, en una catedral

abarrotada con cientos de obispos de todo el mundo, sacerdotes, religiosos y

religiosas, y seminaristas el Santo Padre celebró una Misa cuya homilía

pronunció en español de manera afectuosa y pausada.

 

El Papa meditó con los presentes en tres puntos concretos: llamados por

Dios, llamados a anunciar el Evangelio y llamados a promover la cultura del

encuentro.

 

En el primer punto el Papa Francisco señaló que es importante recordar este

hecho que " a menudo damos por descontado entre tantos compromisos

cotidianos". "Tenemos que pedir el don de ser memoriosos, de no ser unos

desmemoriados", exhortó.

 

El Papa dijo luego que para recordar este llamado de Dios es importante

contemplar y adorar a Cristo en ....

Marcelo Galeano es un argentino que tuvo la bendición de almorzar este

viernes con el Papa Francisco en la residencia de San Joaquín, del Arzobispo

de Río de Janeiro, y señaló que ha sido "un encuentro maravilloso y

distendido" pero sobre todo "una experiencia de Dios".

 

En conferencia de prensa esta tarde en el Media Center de Copacabana,

Marcelo comentó que al principio todos estaban callados porque "no todos los

días almorzamos con el Papa".

 

Almorzaron con el Papa jóvenes de Nueva Zelanda, Australia, Portugal,

Francia, México, Estados Unidos, Sri Lanka, Rusia, Colombia, Argentina y dos

muchachos de Brasil

 

"Ha sido una experiencia de Dios. Ver gente de todos los continentes y

países ha sido algo muy profundo. El Papa es un pastor, es un padre. Nos ha

escuchado atentamente. Habló despacio para que podamos entender".

 

Marcelo dijo además que el Santo Padre es "es un hombre que ama a suIglesia

y que tiene una gran preocupación por los jóvenes para que podamos vivir en

este mundo con sus dificultades".

 

Galeano resaltó que esta experiencia "es un regalo muy grande porque es la

primera vez que lo veo después de él haber dejado su tierra nata....

The Lair of the White Worm. Bram Stoker, London 1911. Illustrations by Pamela Colman Smith

 

Most famous as the author of the iconic horror novel Dracula, Bram Stoker was born in Marino in Dublin. 'The Lair of the White Worm' is, like Dracula, loosely based on folklore, in this case the English tale of the Lambton Worm. Sinister ladies who tear mongooses apart with their hands and baleful mesmerists also play a part in the story. Stoker did not set any of his sensational tales in Dublin, but his Gothic imagination must have been greatly influenced by his literary forebears, fellow-Dubliners Le Fanu and Maturin. Like most Gothic fiction, the theme of Dracula feeds from previous works, notably Sheridan Le Fanu's vampire novella 'Carmilla'.
