In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. One of 54 (60) copies set in Garamond, printed on heavy Somerset paper in Thame (by Christine Tacq) and signed by both artists. Illustrated with six woodcuts by Jose San Martin and eight etchings (and embossing) by Christine Tacq. This, one of 19 copies specially boxed… in a solander case (lined with Kahdi paper to echo the colour of tarnished copper), with a folder of four signed etchings, and copper strips set into the grey cloth boards. A fine copy. In the etched and relief-printed 'A' that opens the book, Christine Tacq has sought to recover Blake's mystery method of printing. More etchings unfold to celebrate the visionary in the everyday and Blake's instructions for creating a book. They begin in a London railway station and end in the new British Library, drawing from the British Museum's Enlightenment Gallery, a random collection of creature images from around the world. Copies with odd numbers are with Jose San Martin. Copies with even numbers are bound by the Fine Book Bindery, of which ten special solander cases are lined with Kahdi paper. Copies 2-20 have copper strips set in the covers; copies 22-54 are held in a slipcase. 6 copies are inscribed A/P. Signed by Author(s).
