The National Museum of Fine Arts of Cuba recently received a donation of 22 titles, including catalogs and books on Cuban and international art, from specialist Moraima Clavijo, president of the Cuban National Committee of the International Council of Museums (ICOM).<\/p>\n

As part of trials for the new Library Management System developed by CODES, currently being implemented at the Antonio Rodr\u00edguez Morey Information Center, the museum has incorporated Dulce Mar\u00eda Loynaz: Una dama y sus abanicos<\/strong>\u2014an exquisite volume born from a collaboration between the Polymita imprint and Cuba\u2019s National Museum of Decorative Arts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The book showcases over 100 pieces from Dulce Mar\u00eda Loynaz\u2019s collections, primarily preserved at institutions such as the Palacio de Lombillo, the Dulce Mar\u00eda Loynaz Cultural Center, the Museum of Decorative Arts in Santa Clara, and the Palacio de Junco Provincial Museum in Matanzas. These artifacts, meticulously documented with scholarly rigor, adorn the book\u2019s pages, highlighting the diversity of styles, materials, and craftsmanship techniques.<\/p>\n

The volume features selections from the famed author of Jard\u00edn\u2019s smaller collections, most notably her most significant and comprehensive assemblage: fans. With texts by Mar\u00eda Rosa Oyarz\u00e1bal Guti\u00e9rrez, the book presents a thorough investigation into the unique nature of this collection, which Loynaz herself described as born from a blend of \u201cchance and deliberate intent.\u201d As such, the publication stands as an essential reference for those studying the collections of this towering figure in Cuban literature.<\/p>\n

Fans were among her greatest treasures\u2014a trove of roughly 350 surviving pieces. At the 1958 inauguration of one of her exhibitions at Havana\u2019s Palace of Fine Arts, the writer reflected: \u201cSomething so intimately mine and cherished, like my fans, owes [their existence] in part to the women of my family who began this collection, and to me, who lovingly continued it from almost childhood.\u201d<\/p>\n
