Заслуживший признание своих современников в России, Петер Карл Фаберже прославился как самый известный в мире ювелир и художник прикладного искусства. Необычайно редкое сочетание государственного величия, исторической драмы и искренних человеческих чувств, запечатленное в этих совершенных творениях, ставит работы Фаберже в ряд мировых художественных шедевров высшего ранга. Это книга о жизни и творчестве Карла Фаберже и созданных им уникальных пасхальных яйцах, которые сделали бессмертным его имя. Широкая историческая перспектива освещает также становление Ювелирного дома Фаберже как официального поставщика императорского двора.

Nice try, though.

Did they face life in prison? former9thward Aug 2013 #11

Ghandi never ran from prison, never, ever--and he got thrown in jail a lot. MADem Aug 2013 #18

Ghandi used prison for PR purposes. Prison and hunger strikes were how he expressed dissent. last1standing Aug 2013 #24

My guy? John Lewis made the comparison. deurbano Aug 2013 #92

If you can't bother to read what is written, I can't be bothered to continue on. MADem Aug 2013 #95

I'm sorry... you're right, I made a mistake and responded to something you didn't say... deurbano Aug 2013 #102

So, if Snowden is assassinated by a Russian mobster, then all bets are off? nt MADem Aug 2013 #47

I haven't placed any bets on someone's life. former9thward Aug 2013 #61

Sure you did--you bet against Ghandi because the wrong guys assassinated him--just upthread. nt MADem Aug 2013 #64

You're getting personal again--why do you do that? MADem Aug 2013 #93
