February 2007: Fribourg – Book Shop

A real Ali-Baba's cave, treasures and treasures: Thousands of books, all subjects, all languages. Prices couldn't be more reasonable: One of the first Books I've got in English, more than 25 years ago, was L'Amour Bleu by C. Beurdeley, a book about the History of Homosexuality in Art. The French version called Beau Petit Ami was available for only 5CHF- (Five Swiss Francs) – nothing considering that this book cost less than a capuccino...
I also got the catalogue “Triumph und Tod des Helden” jabout one of my favourite subjects: Triumph and Death of Heroes, an excellent compilations of the master pieces in West Civilization Art, painters like David, Goya, Velasquez, Rubens, Gericault among others.
And other precious things as you can check at the post below:
