Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Everything about Picasso, except his physical stature, was on an enormous scale. No painter of the first rank has been so awe-inspiringly productive. No painter of any rank has made so much money. A few painters have rivaled his life span of ninety years, but none has attracted so avid, so insatiable, a public interest Patrick O'Brian knew Picasso sufficiently well to have a strong sense of his personality. The man that emerges from this scholarly, passionate, and brilliantly written biography is one of many contradictions: hard and tender, mean and generous, affectionate and cold, private...

April 1800 in Port Mahon, einem Seehafen der britischen Marine auf Menorca. Jack Aubrey, Leutnant der Royal Navy, ist überglücklich: Er hat sein erstes Kommando erhalten.

Was ihm noch fehlt, ist ein Schiffsarzt, und den beschert ihm das Schicksal: Als Jack sich nach einer ersten unheilvollen Begegnung mit dem Naturforscher und Philosophen Dr. Stephen Maturin,...
