      Près de vingt ans après sa première publication, Trompe l'oeil de Graham Rust est devenu une source inestimable d'images de trompe l'oeil pour les designers d'intérieur, les artistes et les étudiants. Rust a créé plus de 100 nouveaux motifs pour des fresques, des panneaux, des alcôves et des portes, des dessus de portes, des paravents et des planches de cheminée. Comme avec Trompe l'oeil, l'intention de Rust est de fournir des designs à copier autant qu'une inspiration, chaque dessin étant reproduit avec le plus de détails possible. Des images classiques et modernes se mêlent dans cette collection, qui comprend des paysages, des animaux, des poissons et des fleurs, des paniers, des pots, des drapés, des treillis et du feuillage, offrant des idées pour la décoration murale, qu'elle soit réalisée personnellement ou par les mains d'un artiste. Revisiter Trompe l'oeil est un tour de force de croquis, de dessins et d'œuvres complètes - avec plus de 200 illustrations en couleur - destiné à devenir un classique.

Frances Hodgson Burnett's most beloved work introduces Mary Lennox, described as “the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen.” After losing her parents to cholera, she is sent to live with her uncle at Misselthwaite Manor. There, she meets her cousin Colin, who is equally spoiled and unloved. Both children are like spiritual secret gardens, needing care to flourish. Mary discovers a hidden, neglected garden on the estate, which she and Colin, along with local boy Dickon, transform into a vibrant paradise. Their love for nature helps them heal and find happiness. This edition features original illustrations by Charles Robinson.

    • Little Lord Fauntleroy (1885, 1886) by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a beloved children's novel that made a huge impact on the 19th century public, shaping everything from boys' clothing fashions to copyright law. Cedric Errol is a generous, kind, and exemplary middle-class American boy who is suddenly found to be the heir of the Earl of Dorincourt. Saying loving goodbyes to his working-class friends, Cedric goes to England together with his mother to embrace his new fortune. His grandfather, the old earl, is a bitter old man ridden with gout and a foul temper, trusting no one. However the angelic boy elicits a profound transformation in the grandfather, which not only benefits the castle household but the whole populace of the earldom. If only the old man's heart would soften toward Cedric's estranged mother, the family would be healed at last. And when another potential heir to the earldom makes a claim, it seems that everything is lost.... But all things are possible through a child's innocent trust, true friendship, and unconditional love.
