Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Size: 8vo 8"-9" tall; Another fine contribution to the series edited by Simon Brett, "Contemporary Wood Engravers." Sturdy, still tightly bound softcover copy, minor to moderate wear of covers and text-block, but with neither underlining nor highlighting. Perfectly readable, usable copy. Printed, illustrated wraps. v + 131 pp. Fine black-and-white photograph of the master woodcutter at frontis, one of his creations gracing rear panel and spine, and then 45 black-and-white plates. Complete with a chronology, a Checklist of books illustrated, and a Checklist of Wales' wood engravings. According to the co-publisher, "This is first volume in a new series of monographs, entitled CONTEMPORARY WOOD ENGRAVERS, edited by Simon Brett, that profiles those involved in wood engraving, which involves printmakers, illustrators, and those working in fine book production. The series begins with artists from Britain and the United States, and others from around the world will be introduced in due course to present an international perspective. Wales, the artist featured in this volume, made prints which were a central part of the British response to modernism and used wood engraving, when it was least popular, to do so. He was one of the very few artists who have taken the medium of illustration all the way into abstraction-the shoreline of Norfolk and his native Kent served as an inspiration, the glimmer and beauty of the sea remaining with him all of his life. Wales experienced success from the 1930s through the 1950s during the private press movement, but his later, more adventurous work was rarely seen, much less appreciated, in his lifetime. This pioneer study places his work in the context of advanced printmaking of its time and pays tribute to an artist of quiet but revolutionary integrity. Illustrated with many wood engravings by Wales. ?
