Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Folio. (64)pp. Dineâs riveting expressionistic woodcuts depict objects and characters in Revelation, such as a skull, a cloud, the Beast, the serpent, and a two-page spread of angelâs wings. The text is set in Garamond, with the voices of God and the angels distinguished by type size. To ensure that t…he pages would lie flat, Andrew Hoyem himself sewed the signatures concertina-style over a flexible core of plastic and nylon fiber. The binding is quarter-inch laminated oak boards with a lightning-bolt device by Dine, backed in white alum-tawed pigskin. One of the major modern artistâs books, Dine draws on a long tradition of illustrated Apocalypses, from Dürer to the present. A bright, crisp copy showing none of the spine toning to which this book is prone. Prospectus laid in. (Arion Bibliography 10). One of 150 copies, signed by Jim Dine and by the printer, Andrew Hoyem.
