About This Item
Princeton, NJ: The Pyne Press, 1973. Hardcover. VG/G (spine of dust jacket is quite faded, few small tears and rubbing at corners of dust jacket, book is in excellent condition with all pages clear and intact). Blue cloth boards with gold gilt lettering, color illustrated dust jacker with white and black lettering; appx. 124 pp. 10 bw, 40 color plates. "This book, while it reveals Fisher's many-sided personality, is basically devoted to illustrating his work. The majority of his paintings are published here for the first time - the water color from his notebooks, begun when he was an undergraduate at Harvard, and lovingly bound with his own hands; a selection of his most important paintings in oil; and many of the woodcuts with which he illustrated his books." - dust jacket description.
