Hardcover in slipcase. Zustand: very good. Hardcover with slipcase in very good condition. 8 x 6 inches (15 x 20cm), 290 pages. Araki's _Kyonen (last year) _is an intimate and affectionately charming collection of Araki's daily records. Within the hardcover publication are a series of snapshots, photo sessions, social gatherings… at bars, and a visual record of Araki's female lovers. The images are both playful and unrestrainedly candid; portraits of his models with their sex marked out in black pen by Araki and his sexual interactions lay alongside gatherings with the likes of Bjork, creating a highly personal and unconstrained depiction of Araki, a bound example of his entirely subjective take on image making, humourously coined as "i-photography" Hardcover with slipcase, very good.

Hardcover. Very good. Original linen backing. Folds into tooled royal blue leather slipcase with gilt decoration and titling. Size 40 x 41 Inches. A spectacularly presented c. 1787 Charles-François Delamarche / Robert de Vaugondy map of Asia. The beautifully presented map is laid down on unusual patterned linen and set into a fi…ne royal blue slipcase with gold gilt tooling. A Closer Look Coverage embraces all of Asia, from the eastern Mediterranean and the Levant to Japan and from the Arctic Circle to Java. Much of the cartography is based on the work of J. B. B. D'Anville, for example, the distinctive square shape of Korea. Hokkaido (Jedso Gasima) is here correctly mapped as an island but incorrectly attached to a very tenuous mapping of the lower forks of Sakhalin. We see an informed mapping of the Kuril Islands, reflecting the explorations of Vitus Bering and Aleksei Chirikov (Tchirikow), but note that the cartographer was not yet ready to give up on 17th-century notions of 'Terre de la Compagnie' and 'Terre de Gama', both of which are mapped without eastern coastlines. Far to the north, land sighted by Chirikov in 1741, likely an Aleutian Island, is noted. In Southeast Asia, the cartographer has made a valiant attempt to address the complex river systems and political boundaries. It somewhat correctly breaks out Ava (Burma/Myanmar), Pegu (Burma/Myanmar), Siam (Thailand), Laos, Cambodia, Tonquin (North Vietnam), and Cochinchina (South Vietnam). It also identifies 'Petit Laos', a former tribal kingdom in what is today northwest Vietnam, bordering China. Singapore Strait is named. In Arabia, the cartographer assigns much of the western Persian Gulf to the Kingdom of Bahrain (Bahrein). It also identifies a neighboring island, Samak, a misunderstanding of the peninsula of Qatar. Other named cities along the Gulf are El Caty (El Catif), Cathema (Ras al-Kahaimah), Mascalat, Calba, Raz Ollima, Mekehoan, and Julphar (Gioloflar). Publication History and Census According to Mary Pedley (#376), this map was originally engraved by J. Arrivet for publication by Didier Robert de Vaugondy in 1758, per Library of Congress cataloging. She catalogs four states; this is the fourth, the Charles-François Delamarche edition, published c. 1786-87. It dates to, or slightly post-dates 1787, when Delamarche acquired the Robert de Vaugondy map plates and rights, but must predate the French Revolution (1789 - 1799). There is a state 5 (c. 1792), in which all references to the 'Roi' were excised. Scarce to the market. References: Pedley, Mary Sponberg, Bel et Utile: The Work of the Robert de Vaugondy Family of Mapmakers, #376, state 4. Bibliothèque nationale de France, département Cartes et plans, GE C-80.
