l banchiere di origine alsaziana Albert Kahn (1860-1940), nato e cresciuto in un periodo difficile come quello della guerra franco-prussiana, sognò un mondo di pace. La sua utopia lo spinse a mettere in piedi un progetto quasi folle e impensabile che oggi è diventato patrimonio mondiale per il suo enorme valore ed è conservato nel museo a lui dedicato a Boulogne-Billancourt (Parigi).

Wat is een foto waard zonder een verhaaltje?

Er is een tijd geweest dat lachen nog niet de norm was op foto’s. Wanneer de lach – of ‘cheese’ – definitief in zwang is geraakt, is volgens mij moeilijk te zeggen – toen ik een kind was in de jaren vijftig werd ik in ieder geval al uitgenodigd te lachen naar ‘het vogeltje’ dat geacht werd in de lens te verschijnen. Ik woonde onlangs een betoog bij van een bekende fotograaf, die in de beate…

The Night Agent (Season 2 Review) | A Thrilling Continuation with High Stakes and Emotional Depth

S2 of #TheNightAgent is here, and it doesn’t hold back! Twists, high stakes, and emotional depth. Peter & Rose’s dynamic shines brighter than ever. Who’s ready for Season 3 already?! #SpyThriller #TheNightAgentSeason2 #MustWatch #TVReview 📖 Full review:

When The Night Agent first premiered, it grabbed me with its fast-paced action and high-stakes intrigue. I enjoyed Matthew Quirk’s novel and its adaptation didn’t disappoint. Season 1 was a wild ride, introducing us to Peter Sutherland (played brilliantly by Gabriel Basso), a low-level FBI agent working the night shift in the White House basement, manning a phone that never rings – until one…
