George Barbier, L'Eau (Water) for Falbalas & Fanfreluches Almanach des Modes Prsentes Passes et Futures. 1924.

Hand-coloured, plate-signed pochoir from Falbalas & Fanfreluches: "Water", part of the "Four Elements" quatrain from Barbier's 1924 Almanac. "How far we have come" could be an apt subtitle with the revealing new bathing suits (or lack thereof), not to mention the streamlined turban, shown here midway in its evolution from Poiret's elaborate 1910-12 confection to the iconic flapper headband. The background reflection, so very stylized Art Nouveau in line, is a subtle reminder of the vast societal changes which transformed into the new permissive era over the span of a mere 20 years or so (reaching back to when the turn-of-the-century bathing costume was of serviceable and stout wool jersey, right down to the full-stockinged knees). This famous illustrated almanac series was produced from 1922 to 1926 only and depicted high-society life in Paris - the fashion, social and artistic capital of the early inter-war years. Each issue contained a small diary and notation section, an introduction by one of the leading social/cultural doyens of the day, a decorative cover and twelve fashion plates (one for each month of the year).

This song is about starting the journey of life, and finding who we truly are. We as people often get disappointed at when life troubles us but this song is an expression to embrace life with everything in us. I feel as if we are all connected and all share one thing in common. We are all searching for more and more in our lives and I think it's amazing to be able to experience all this beautiful life this world has to offer. Especially with others, we are never alone even if it may feel like it. Music heals. Music has the power to bring people together and I believe music can transform the way we view the world.

The Green Light of Illusion: Unraveling the Enigma of The Great Gatsby

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" is an intricate tapestry woven with the threads of illusion, reality, and the American Dream. Set against the extravagant backdrop of the Roaring Twenties, the novel unfolds through the eyes of Nick Carraway, a Yale graduate and veteran of World War I. Nick finds himself drawn into the enigmatic world of Jay Gatsby, a mysterious millionaire with an insatiable longing for the past and an unwavering pursuit of the unattainable Daisy Buchanan.

The novel is a vivid exploration of the Jazz Age, a period characterized by unprecedented economic prosperity, loosening social mores, and the pursuit of pleasure. Fitzgerald masterfully captures the excesses and superficialities of the time, using Gatsby's extravagant parties as a lens through which the emptiness of the era is exposed. The narrative subtly critiques the moral decay hidden beneath the glitz and glamour, revealing the fragility of societal values.

At the heart of the story is the elusive American Dream, personified by Gatsby's relentless quest for wealth and social status to win back Daisy, the embodiment of his idealized past. The green light at the end of Daisy's dock becomes a powerful symbol, representing both Gatsby's unattainable dreams and the broader illusion of the American Dream itself. Fitzgerald, with eloquence and insight, dissects the hollowness of the pursuit of material success and the ephemeral nature of happiness.

The characters in "The Great Gatsby" are meticulously crafted, each representing a facet of society during this tumultuous period. Gatsby, with his enigmatic persona, stands as a tragic figure emblematic of the illusions people construct to shield themselves from harsh realities. Daisy, a symbol of fleeting beauty and privilege, remains forever out of reach, a mirage that fuels Gatsby's relentless yearning.

Nick Carraway, the novel's narrator, serves as a moral compass, providing a lens through which the reader witnesses the moral decay and the disintegration of dreams. His observations and reflections paint a nuanced picture of the characters and the society they inhabit.

The prose in "The Great Gatsby" is a literary marvel. Fitzgerald's writing is both lyrical and incisive, capturing the essence of an era with a keen eye for detail. The novel's themes of illusion, disillusionment, and the pursuit of an unattainable ideal reverberate through the eloquent prose, making it a work of enduring significance.

"The Great Gatsby" is a timeless exploration of the complexities of the human spirit, societal expectations, and the elusive nature of the American Dream. Fitzgerald's critique of the Jazz Age resonates across generations, inviting readers to ponder the universal themes of love, loss, and the relentless pursuit of dreams.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" is available in Amazon in paperback 13.99$ and hardcover 20.99$ editions.
