He is a famous archer whose golden arrows cause uncontrollable desire, and whose leaden arrows quench desire and promote aversion. He is winged because lovers are flighty and liable to change their minds. He was the son of Venus, Goddess of Love, and either Mars, Mercury or Vulcan. Cupid (Eros) is the ancient Roman (Greek) God of desire, erotic love, attraction, and affection.
American Victorians were noted to be prudes. For example, adultery and mistresses were commonplace for them. We do not know if the Aristocrats were concerned with pure love or with prudish behavior. At least it was superior for the English Bourgeoisie and this seems allied to their prudish behavior. This was “pure love” for Victorians and superior to love with physical aspects.
Silver Bookends Full Title Was
Mariner: Who lived Eight and Twenty Years, all alone in an un-inhabited Island on the Coast of America, near the Mouth of the Great River of Orgonoque Having been cast on Shore by Shipwreck, where-in all the Men perished but himself. The 1719 edition’s full title was, entitled, The LIFE and Strange Surprizing ADVENTURES of ROBINSON CRUSOE, of York. Crusoe is shown fully armed and leading a small goat.When Pompeian Bronze Company copyrighted this Robinson Crusoe bookend design in 1930, the book, Robinson Crusoe, had excited the imagination and adventurist spirit of readers for more than 200 years.
Chromolithographs spiced up the stories. Until recently it remained popular with youngsters, although one might guess that it can no longer compete with comic-strip presentations of superheroes.In the mid-to-late 1800s it was fashionable to abridge classics and make them more palatable to a young audience. The book was well received and has gone through hundreds of editions in the last 300 years. It is the story of a man shipwrecked on a lonely tropical island who by craft and industry survived and even prospered. It was among the first novels ever published in England.
His haughty stance clearly advertises his power.But, we do not need all these details of dress and accoutrements to identify a romantic pirate. A red bandana peeks out from beneath the hat. Finally, his mustache and tricorn hat and an ear ring in his left ear make him an elegant chap. The man’s shirt has been torn, undoubtedly in a fight, but, his close-fitting, nineteenth century pantaloons and his high boots are in good shape. But how does a pirate look? Pirate bookends show us pirates in the round, and the bookends must be correcct, at least for the popular conception of pirates, because we immediately recognize pirates on bookends.This pirate wears knives on his colorful sash and leans on his sword while keeping one foot on a coil of rope. Signed “Paul Herzel.”Doubloons, swords, treasure chests, eye patches- everyone knows that all these identify pirates because Hollywood told us so.
These electroformed bronze bookends are also marked with the name of Paul Herzel, and they are attributed to Armor Bronze Inc.
