Softcover. Zustand: Very Good -. Softcover. Numbered 425 of 500 copies initialed and signed by the book artist. Carol Schwartzott has been creating artists' books for over twenty-five years. Her work appears in many museums,and private collections including the libraries of the Smithsonian, the National Gallery of Art, and the V…ictoria and Albert Museum. This lovely miniature book is one in a series of four miniature books that the artist referred to as "The Seasons." This is the Spring book. Like the others in the series, the books are printed offset. However, each book had something handmade about it. April Rain has some illustrations that are painted in color, and it has die-cut windows. The accompanying text is a poem by Robert Loveman (1864-1923). Loveman's poem "The Rain Song" (also known as "April Rain") became very well known and was anthologized in many books of verse. It later inspired the Al Jolson song "April Showers." The book was designed and bound by Schwartzott. In addition to the two hand-painted flower spreads, the end papers are also handpainted. It is an accordion fold book with paper wraps with image of flower petals and green ribbon ties. Measures 2.8 x 2.8 inches. Unpaginated. Signed.
