Download or read book Cezanne s Parrot written by Amy Guglielmo and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring picture book biography of the artist Paul Cezanne, the painter who laid the groundwork for modern art and whom Pablo Picasso declared "the father of us all." All Cezanne wants is to be a great painter like his friends Monet, Pissarro, and Renoir. But when he shows his works, the professors, the critics, and the collectors all dismiss him: "Too flat!" "Too much paint!" "These are rough and unfinished!" Even his own pet parrot, Bisou, can't be brought to say, "Cezanne is a great painter!" And who can blame them? Cezanne doesn't care about tradition, and he doesn't follow the rules. He's painting in a way no one else has done before, creating something completely new--and he's destined to change the world of art forever. Cezanne's Parrot is a spirited celebration of creativity, determination, and perseverance--and the artist who would become known as the father of modern art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Inter-Oceanic Canal: An Historical Sketch of the Canal Idea The Chairman Ladies and Gentlemen: this last session of the Panama Pacific Historical Congress will be distinguished by the reading Of a paper on The American inter-oceanic Canal: an Historical Sketch Of the Canal Idea, by Mr. Rudolph J. Taussig, Secretary of the Panama Pacific International Exposition. Mr. Taussig will tell the story Of the idea Of making a canal. It is practically the same thing as the history of the idea of making the Panama Pacific Canal, which opens a new era in the history Of the Pacific Ocean. I have the aid on the platform here Of two distinguished dele gates, one from Spain and the other from Japan. During his presence at the Congress, by many speeches and in many ways, Professor Altamira has endeared himself to those who are responsible for this Historical Congress. Professor N. Murakami has, in the excellent paper he read today at palo Alto, shown that the new land Of Japan is as interested in things Of the Pacific Ocean as the Old land of Spain. TO support them two former presidents Of the American Historical Association, Professor Turner, Of Harvard University, and Professor Jameson are here present. A little later we are to be favored by another former president of the American Historical Association, who, while he has written history, has also made it, and who has promised to be present shortly to tell us how he made the Canal, which Mr. Taussig will trace from its original idea.
