About this title
Synopsis:Provides a personal look at New York and its crime, art world, homeless, celebrities, ethnic groups, and business leaders
From Publishers Weekly:In acid engravings and paintings, Hogarth captured the riotous excesses of middle-class England. His pictures transcend genre painting and make a universal commentary on human folly. But most of his successors recorded the tastes and manners of their times in an uncritical fashion. Examples include the "conversation pieces" and rural idylls of Arthur Devis and John Zoffany. Only infrequently, artists like Gainsborough and Stubbs, in limning the contemporary social scene, stumbled upon the actual. Victorian genre artists breathed some reality into pictures of families ruined by gambling and fallen women. Walter Sickert (18601942), rejecting genteel traditions, uncovered the beauty lurking in commonplace urban scenes. Johnson, a Princeton professor, objectively examines the highs and lows of Britain's socially relevant painting. The more than 200 plates here are marked by sharp local detail, robust characterizations and touches of humor.

Reviews for "The Magic Novice Kit: Your Gateway to Magical Abilities"
1. Sarah - ★☆☆☆☆
I was thoroughly disappointed with the magic novice kit. The tricks included were incredibly basic and lacked any wow factor. The instruction manual was poorly written, making it difficult to understand how to perform the tricks correctly. Additionally, the quality of the props provided was subpar, with flimsy materials that easily broke or fell apart. Overall, I found the magic novice kit to be a waste of money and would not recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and impressive magic learning experience.
2. Mark - ★★☆☆☆
As someone who has always been fascinated by magic, I was excited to try out the magic novice kit. However, my excitement quickly turned into disappointment. The kit included tricks that I had already seen countless times and were nothing new or exciting. The props provided were also poorly made and did not hold up well after just a few uses. Furthermore, the instructional videos that were supposed to guide me through the tricks were poorly filmed and hard to follow. Overall, I expected more from the magic novice kit and was left feeling let down.
3. Rachel - ★★☆☆☆
I purchased the magic novice kit as a gift for my nephew who has shown an interest in magic. Unfortunately, the kit did not live up to my expectations. The tricks included were too complicated for a beginner and required additional materials that were not included in the kit. The instructions were also confusing and poorly organized, making it difficult for my nephew to understand how to perform the tricks correctly. I would recommend looking for a different magic kit that is more suitable for beginners and provides clearer instructions.
4. John - ★☆☆☆☆
I found the magic novice kit to be extremely underwhelming. The tricks included were outdated and easily recognizable, making them less impressive to anyone with basic knowledge of magic. The quality of the props was also disappointing, with flimsy materials that made them feel cheap and disposable. The instructions provided were not detailed enough, leaving me confused and frustrated when attempting to perform the tricks. Save your money and invest in a more comprehensive and high-quality magic kit instead.
