Seller's Description:
Luigi Serafini. Like New in Like New jacket. 392pp. Black cloth, blindstamped, and gilt lettering on the spine. The book and the jacket have the slightest of handling, otherwise as new. Laid in is a press release dated August29, 1983, and a translation of Italo Calvino's essay on Codex Seraphinianus. Codex is an encyclopedia in manuscript with copious hand-drawn, colored-pencil illustrations of bizarre and fantastical flora, fauna, anatomies, fashions, and foods. [4] It has been compared to the still undeciphered Voynich manuscript, the story "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" by Jorge Luis Borges, and the artwork of M. C. Escher and Hieronymus Bosch. The illustrations are often surreal parodies of things in the real world, such as a bleeding fruit, a plant that grows into roughly the shape of a chair and is subsequently made into one, and a copulating couple who metamorphose into an alligator.
