Sideshow Alley: Infamy, the Macabre & the Portrait
AU$40.00 Read MoreAdd to cartJoanna Gilmour
Canberra: National Portrait Gallery, 2015.“Featuring a sometimes disquieting selection of portraits, Sideshow Alley combines history, biography and the art of portraiture with true crime, scandal and sensation. National Portrait Gallery Curator Joanna Gilmour introduces the relationship between death and portraiture via a focus on the various ways in which artists, photographers and entrepreneurs made use of portraits of Australian convicts and criminals: the canny or unscrupulous publishers trading in salacious prints and penny dreadfuls; the otherwise respectable people who put carte de visite of serial killers into their family albums; the photographic studios doing a brisk trade in portraits of heroes and villains; and the waxworks proprietors who, with their ‘Chambers of Horrors’, turned violence, misfortune and the macabre into a lucrative art form.” (publisher’s blurb)

AU$800.00 Read MoreAdd to cartHollington K. Tong
Taipei: China Publishing Company, 1953.The revised edition of Tong’s biography of the Chinese leader. Tong was a journalist and diplomat, serving as the Ambassador of the Republic of China to Japan when this edition was published later as the Ambassador to the United States. This revised edition, published 16 years after the first edition, condenses the story of Chiang Kai-shek’s life pre-1936, which was covered at length in the two volume first edition, and focuses on the epic years which followed, 1937-1953. This copy inscribed by Tong in Tokyo, 1953, to the polyglot Boris Strjeshevsky, an officer in the Imperial Russian Army that fled to China where he learned English and Chinese and taught Russian to the Chinese, before moving to Japan in 1939 where he learned Japanese and taught languages, before finally moving to Queensland, Australia, where he taught Russian at the University of Queensland.
