Glasses Frames For Women

Pince-nez ( /ˈpænsneɪ/ or /ˈpɪnsneɪ/; French pronunciation: [pɛ̃sˈne]) are a style of spectacles, popular in the 19th century, which are supported without earpieces, by pinching the bridge of the nose. The name comes from French pincer, to pinch, and nez, nose.
Although pince-nez were used in Europe in the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries, modern ones appeared in the 1840s and reached their peak popularity around 1880 to 1900. By the late 1930s, they were popular mostly with the elderly.

Hubert , which marks Ben Gijsemans ’s debut as a graphic novelist, is also about the isolation that comes with city life. However, this beautiful, moving book isn’t only about what it is like to be too much alone. The deafening silence of its frames are at moments as crushing as lead.

He lives in a tiny flat in Brussels (Gijsemans is Belgian), and spends his free time, of which he seems to have a lot, visiting galleries, standing in front of his favourite pictures – he loves paintings of beautiful women, like Manet’s Olympia –... In between, he talks to almost no one. he has lost the habit of small talk, if he ever had it in the first place.
