large 4to. quarter red oasis niger over red cloth boards, gilt on cover and spine, original publisher's acetate dustjacket, decorated paper-covered slipcase. 55 pages, eleven color prints, of which five are double-page and six are full page. Printed in an edition limited to 95 numbered copies signed by the author/artist. A fine copy in near-fine slipcase. The engravings are hand-made by the artist from copper-plates worked by engraving, etching, aquatint & soft-ground etching. The colours are applied from intaglio & relief, and additional colours are added by hand. Typography & printing by Will Carter at the Rampant Lions Press on hand-made paper. Some of Joe Lubbock's finest work with several plates approaching abstraction from figurative inspiration found in the natural world from the author's native Suffolk to the mountains of Central Asia. The edition is hand-bound by George Percival at Leicester. In 1967 J.G.Lubbock retired to work on his wonderful books of engravings inspired by the spiritual nature of the landscape and the sea. They are full of atmosphere and depth of feeling and deserve their place in the history of contemporary livres d'artistes. quarter red oasis niger over red cloth boards, gilt on cover and spine, original publisher's acetate dustjacket, decorated paper-covered slipcase.
