Ludwig Ernst Fuerbringer was born on 29 March 1864 in Frankenmuth, Michigan. He was the youngest of five children born to Ottomar Fuerbringer and his wife Agnes Buenger. He received his preparatory training at Concordia College in Fort Wayne, Indiana, after which he entered Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri, and graduated from there in 1885. He was called to be his father’s assistant at St. Lawrence Lutheran Church in Frankenmuth , Michigan, and was ordained there on 12 July 1885. He served this congregation for eight years. In 1893 he accepted a call as professor at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis. On 30 September 1931 he was installed as the third president of this institution, succeeding the late Dr. Francis Pieper. Fuerbringer served in this position until his retirement in 1943.

He was Jewish, with a French mother and Italian father, and so grew up with three cultures. A passionate and charming man who had numerous lovers, his unique vision was nurtured by his appreciation of his Italian and classical artistic heritage, his understanding of French style and sensibility, in particular the rich artistic atmosphere of Paris at the turn of the 20th century, and his intellectual awareness inspired by Jewish tradition. Unlike other avant-garde artists, Modigliani painted mainly portraits - typically unrealistically elongated with a melancholic air - and nudes, which exhibit a graceful beauty and strange eroticism. In 1906, Modigliani moved to Paris, the centre of artistic innovation and the international art market. He frequented the cafes and galleries of Montmartre and Montparnasse, where many different groups of artists congregated. He soon became friends with the post-impressionist painter (and alcoholic) Maurice Utrillo (1883-1955) and the German painter Ludwig Meidner (1844-1966), who described Modigliani as the "last, true bohemian. Modigliani's mother sent him what money she could afford, but he was desperately poor and had to change lodgings frequently, sometimes abandoning his work when he had to run away without paying the rent., Grange Book PLC, 2005, 3, Pfullingen, Germany: Gunther Neske. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1966. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Publisher's original white cloth, with dust jacket and original plain card slipcase. This copy is an unusual survival in strictly original condition and state -- the original semi-translucent glassine protective overlay which was intended to preserve the binding and dust jacket has remained sealed. The publisher's four original short lengths of old cellophane tape remain undisturbed on the portion of the glassine protecting the rear panel -- (the cello-tape has yellowed slightly, but this will not affect the pristine dust jacket kept below. Paul Swiridoff [1914-2002] became particularly famous as a photographer on the basis of his portraits. This is the first volume of three series of portraits, in the edition with an English language title and text. [The German version of this volume is titled: "Porträts Bd. 1 . Porträts aus dem geistigen Deutschland"] Arguably this is the most interesting of the three Swiridoff series; the others are devoted to portraits from German Economic and Political life). Wonderful, large portraits of portrait photographs of Ernst Bloch, Heinrich Boll, Max Born, Rudolf Bultmann, Otto Dix, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Gunter Grass, Walter Gropius, Otto Hahn, Werner Heisenberg, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Carl Orff, Erich Maria Remarque, and others. Not a rare book, but certainly uncommon in this never-opened state almost fifty years following publication. ., Gunther Neske, 1966, 5, New., 6<
