Beschreibung

First edition, first printing. Illustrated boards with a tan cloth spine lettered in black. Illustrated throughout in colour and black and white by Claude Flight, C. W. Toovey, Stanislaus Brien, Margaret Barnard, and others. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the spine tips slightly worn, the corners a little rubbed, with a little faint toning and light marks to the boards. The internal front hinge is starting but holding firm. The contents, with a contemporary price label (3/6) to the front pastedown, are otherwise clean and bright throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. An instructional book on linoleum cut printing, a technique which the British artist and printmaker Claude Flight (1881 - 1955) pioneered and popularised. Lino-cuts by children are included alongside the work of professional artists, demonstrating the technique's accessibility and exemplifying Flight's promotion of lino-cut as an affordable and easy method of printmaking which he passionately believed would make art available to a large amount of people, including within education. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 25994
