One of the main goals of the Breitling DC-3 World Tour and pilot-owner Francisco Agullo and his team was to promote the aviation heritage and inspire future generations. That’s also the reason why the highlights of this epic journey have been captured in stunning images by world-renowned aviation photographer Katsuhiko Tokunaga.

The Patriot Behind the Pot
The Patriot behind the pot tells the story of pottery, people and politics in the Netherlands during a time of great revolutions; revolutions both in a political and industrial sense. This study shows how at the end of the 18th century numerous Dutch people used all kinds of ceramic and glass items in their household as media to convey their political stance in favor of or against the ruling House of Orange. Many of these more than 200 years old politically charged items have been preserved in museum collections. Sporadically, pieces of them are retrieved from archaeological sites as well. Along with dozens of historical sources and hundreds of other ceramic and glass artifacts that were discarded or lost by their former owners in the same archaeological contexts, these fascinating objects with a certain political meaning have been examined in order to understand the material culture of Dutch Orangists and Patriots in the period around 1800. Apart from a thorough study of late 18th- and early 19th-century ceramics and glassware in the Netherlands, this book presents an extensive catalog of politically charged items from the period 1780-1815. This might help archaeologists, art-historians and collectors to recognize and further study these objects of great historical value. This book comprises a Master thesis written by Wytze Stellingwerf. In 2017 he graduated at the Faculty of Archaeology at Leiden University. This thesis was nominated for three prizes, respectively the national archaeological W.A. van Es prize, the Leiden University thesis prize and the IISG prize of the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam.geschiedenis
Frank Bennett Fiske
The Standing Rock Portraits
For English see below- Meer dan honderd jaar geleden begon fotograaf Frank Bennett Fiske (1883-1952) met het fotograferen van leden van de Standing Rock Sioux in zijn studio in Fort Yates, North Dakota. Hij was 16 jaar oud toen hij de studio overnam van S.T. Fansler. De mannen en vrouwen die Fiske fotografeerde waren zijn vrienden en buren, indianen die al meer dan twintig jaar in dit reservaat woonden. Fiske heeft daar bijna zijn hele leven gewoond. De getoonde beelden zijn gemaakt met een grote studiocamera op glasplaatnegatieven en zijn verbluffend qua helderheid en compositie en zijn zelden in het openbaar gezien.De in Dakota geboren fotograaf en grafisch ontwerper Murray Lemley heeft een selectie van Fiske's werk samengesteld zodat de wereld deze kan zien.- More than a hundred years ago, photographer Frank Bennett Fiske (1883-1952) began photographing members of the Standing Rock Sioux in his studio at Fort Yates, North Dakota. He was 16 years old when he took over the studio from S.T. Fansler. The men and women Fiske photographed were his friends and neighbors, Native Americans who had lived on this reservation for more than 20 years. Fiske lived there nearly all his life. Made with a large studio camera on glass plate negatives, the resulting images are stunning in their clarity and composition, and have rarely been seen in public. Dakota native, photographer and graphic designer Murray Lemley has curated a selection of Fiske's work for the world to see. Engelstalig boekgeschiedenis
Reinjan Mulder
Objectief Nederland
For English see below - In 1974 legde Reinjan Mulder (1949) een grof raster over de kaart van Nederland en trok eropuit om op de 52 kruispunten te gaan fotograferen. Doel was de objectieve werkelijkheid van Nederland vast te leggen, ongekleurd door tradities, bereikbaarheid en schoonheidsidealen. Het project werd 42 jaar later tentoongesteld in het Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, en in opdracht van Rijksadviseur voor de fysieke leefomgeving Berno Strootman geherfotografeerd door fotografe Cleo Wächter (1993). Met ongeëvenaarde precisie, maar niet zonder eigen artistieke inbreng, voltooide Wächter in 2017 het herfotografieproject Objectief Nederland 1974-2017. De twee fotoseries worden nu gebundeld in Objectief Nederland. Veranderend landschap 1974-2017, een historisch document dat de vele veranderingen van het Nederlandse landschap in de afgelopen halve eeuw op een vernieuwende manier in kaart brengt en tegelijk fotografie als kunstvorm en bron van wetenschap bevraagt. Is fotografie ooit écht objectief te noemen? En leent iets wat begon als kunstproject zich wel voor wetenschappelijke doeleinden? -- In 1974, Reinjan Mulder (b. 1949) placed a coarsely-woven grid on top of a map of the Netherlands and set off to photograph the 52 resulting intersections. His aim was to capture the objective reality of the Netherlands, uncoloured by traditions, accessibility and beauty ideals. The project was exhibited at the Amsterdam Rijksmuseum 42 years later, and was re-photographed by photographer Cleo Wächter (b. 1993), on request of Government Advisor for the Physical Living Environment Berno Strootman. Working with unparalleled precision, Wächter succeeded in contributing her own artistic perspective and completed the re-photography project Objective Netherlands 1974-2017 in 2017. The two photo series are now combined in this book, a historical document that innovatively maps the many changes the Dutch landscape went through over the past 50 years and simultaneously raises questions about photography as an art form and scientific source. Can photography ever be truly objective? Can something that started out as an art project also lend itself to scientific purposes? Nederland's- en Engelstalig boekgeschiedenis
