Publishers, Artists, and Vendors

“Last year was our first year of touring, and the Kensington Day of the Book was one of our first stops. It was a delightful festival… I would like to say that there were some great exhibitors, but we were so busy with attendees coming to our table that I wasn’t able to go more than a few tables in either direction. Several of our authors were able to join us and they all enjoyed their experiences and many will be returning with us this year…in the charming downtown of Kensington to celebrate the Day of the Book.”

the-winthuysen-foundation-272215
Javier de Winthuysen was a modernist artist, dedicated to the environmental practice of recording what he saw in nature at his native province of Seville during the first part of his life, and the rest of Spain during his mature years. Winthuysen recorded picturesque localities and was a pioneer in the field of landscape picturesque site conservation. His autobiography testifies a very important part of Spanish History, the end of the XIX century and beginning of the XX, when the good intentions of the Republican Government ended in failure.
The Winthuysen Foundation, Inc. offers, for free, the use of the virtual books that it published, during the years 2014 and 2015.
