Original Woodcuts.

Beschreibung

FIRST EDITION, 36/75 COPIES, the title-page with woodcut device and a few small spots, ex dono inscription of Barbara Bagenal (see below) to the title-page, recording this as the gift (at Christmas 1918) of 'J.M.K. [i.e., John Maynard Keynes], pencil note at foot of 'The Cup' by Fry, this by Barbara Bagenal noting her having given said object to Duncan Grant in 1916 and that is was also painted by Vanessa Bell in 'Still Life of Roses', pp. [27], royal 8vo, original purple patterned boards (a hand-printed Omega design), worn, the spine largely perished (but the boards secure), edges untrimmed and toned, poor condition. A notable association: the copy of artist Barbara Bagenal (née Hiles), a friend of Carrington from the Slade who - alongside Winifred Gill and Gladys Hynes - assisted at Omega. Amongst her relationships within the Bloomsbury Group were Saxon Sydney-Turner and later Clive Bell - and she is noted as having been, prior to her marriage to Nicholas Bagenal (though that presumably needn't have been an obstacle), probably the first heterosexual partner of J.M. Keynes, whom she records this book as having been a gift from (in the year of her marriage, and his first acquaintance with Lydia Lopokova). Twelve cuts; the final publication of the Omega Workshops.
