Baigneuses

by Buckland Wright, Christopher

  • Used
Denby Dale: Fleece Press, 1995. Capon, Lester. Folio. 80pp. One of 240 copies. When John Buckland Wright died in 1954 his studio contained a number of his engraved woodblocks, mostly those for which he had a particular fondness. This volume publishes "all the engravings of bathers or of women in watery landscapes and seascapes," comprising twenty-five plates printed from the original blocks. In addition, the introduction is illustrated with tipped-in prints and photographs.

This copy has been specially bound by Lester Capon in boards sculpted in feminine curves. Covered in five differently colored calfskins with leather onlays and inlays of further variety. These, along with Capon's droplets of gold tooling to both covers and Finnish reindeer suede doublures, evokes the sensuality so readily associated with Buckland Wright's style. Held in lined tray which slides out from underneath a green plexiglass shield, so that when the book emerges it does so as if from underwater into sunlight. All protected by a clamshell box. Fine.

Description:
Edited and with an Introduction by Christopher Buckland Wright. - Aldershot, Ashgate Editions, 1990, quarto, pp. 160, fully illustrated; black cloth gilt & dustwrapper. - A sort of definitive book and catalogue raisonné of Buckland Wright's engravings, with additional chapters (see photo 2, contents). It was published to coincide with a major exhibition of the artist's work at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; copies are quite scarce. - Note: this copy had very slight water damage at the foot of the spine only. This is visible at the white endpapers and at inside foot of the dustjacket; not visible at the black cloth binding (see last photo), and the book is otherwise in very good condition. - [Extra shipping cost for destinations outside Europe]
