About This Item
Francestown: Typographeum, 1995. Limited private press edition. First edition.. Hardcover. Fine. 8vo. Blue cloth with printed label on back-strip (spare label tipped in). 48 pp. Illustrated: 3 pp. of plates. Issued without a dust-jacket. 150 copies hand-set, printed letterpress and bound by R. T. Risk. Gisèle d'Ailly is a Dutch artist who in the mid-1960s found and restored a small, nearly ruined monastery on the Aegean island of Paros. The monastery was isolated and spartan; yet it had a splendid location and there was much natural beauty to inspire her art. In the evenings, by candlelight, she wrote these poems about her work, her distant neighbors, and her life on the island.
