Zustand: Wie neu. Fundación Mapfre, Madrid. 2014. First spanish edition, first printing. Mint, new, unread; still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher`s plastic foil. Hardcover in half linen (as issued). 230 x 258 mm. 296 pages. Text in spanish. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! "A key American Pictorialist and a crucial innovator in abstract photography, Alvin Langdon Coburn is a fascinating but often neglected figure in the history of American modernism. As early as 1909, Coburn was making futuristic depictions of New York and Pittsburgh, anticipating modernist architectural photography`s classic "bird`s-eye" view. In 1912, in New York, working with the Cubist artist-poet Max Weber, he developed this idiom a step further, photographing New York from the pinnacles of skyscrapers. The following year he published Men of Mark, which featured portraits of authors, artists and statesmen, including Henri Matisse, Henry James, Mark Twain and Theodore Roosevelt. In 1914 Coburn relocated to London, participating in the British Vorticist movement, led by Wyndham Lewis and Ezra Pound; Coburn`s series of multiple exposures and "Vortographs" were the first truly abstract photographs. So why is Coburn not better known today? After 1920 he deliberately withdrew from the photo world (though he never gave up photography) and retired to rural Wales, where he immersed himself in painting, music composition and Freemasonry. In the 1950s he was rediscovered and championed by Beaumont and Nancy Newhall of George Eastman House, to which he bequeathed almost 20,000 prints and negatives along with cameras, correspondence and ephemera. This beautiful volume, published to accompany a show at George Eastman House and drawing on a wide range of public and private collections, reveals his work and legacy for a new generation."

First edition, British signed limited issue, number 31 of 60 copies signed by both Wells and Coburn, the handwritten limitation statement facing the half-title and dated January 1915. Considered Wells's most disturbing and evocative work of speculative fiction, The Door in the Wall "deals with a favourite Wellsian theme: the intrusion of mysterious forces into everyday life" (Coelsch-Foisner, p. 180). Grappling with man's inability to bridge the gap between science and imagination, the fantastical and the rational, it chronicles the life of the eminent politician Lionel Wallace, who in childhood had once entered through a mysterious green door in a white wall to find himself briefly in a luxurious paradise, only to be tantalized throughout his adult life by visions of the door in the wall, and eventually driven mad. "Six hundred copies of The Door in the Wall were printed in November 1911 [by Mitchell Kennerley of New York]; but publication was delayed by the spoilage of Coburn's photogravures, which were to be inserted in the books. When the crate arrived from England, it was discovered that a nail had accidentally been driven through the photogravures. Only three hundred copies were published with all ten illustrations. The remaining copies were sold with a label explaining the circumstances. Sixty copies of the Kennerley edition were issued in England in 1915 with Grant Richards's title page; these numbered copies were signed by both Wells and Coburn" (Bruccoli, p. 55). The fine French handmade Glaslan paper, the striking text (printed using types and decorations designed by the great Frederic W. Goudy and set by his wife Bertha S. Goudy at the Village Press), and Coburn's atmospheric photographs combine to make this a beautifully produced book. Currey, p. 518; Wells 43a.
