Condition: guter bis sehr guter Zustand. F. guter bis sehr guter Zustand, geringe Gebrauchs- und Alterungsspuren: Deckel an der oberen Kante auf ca. 3 cm Breite etwas gequetscht - Seiten sauber und ordentlich - Schutzumschlag defekt, teils geklebt und an der Unterkante der Rückseite mit Fehlstelle "Few artists have the conviction to create complete worlds for man to wander in: it is the mark of the truly great. It has been Reynolds Stone's achievement from the early years: he is supremely appropriate in his choice of subject. On the end-grain of a small slice of boxwood he will conjure with his graver the rustle of wind in leaves, the clap of a pigeon's wings. He distils essences. Technically, his mastery is shown by the colour and variety he can draw from the gradings of a simple tone; by textures that the observer instantly accepts, but which on examination prove to be the product of a few swift lines. lt is more than a virtuosity of technique ? rather it is a mystery that bypasses many of the stages normal to representational art. And underlying all is an impeccable line: sweet curves come together in a harmonious relationship of parts, as if he had at his beckoning the inventiveness of Nature. When he turns to typography, all is economy and clarity: his designs are trumpet sounds. This is the first major collection of his work. Lord Clark's assessment of Reynolds Stone's achievement and the artist's own description of how his talent first matured provide a fitting introduction to a record of rare beauty. From a practical point of view, this is a source book for typographers, designers and illustrators. The descriptive notes on the engravings provide a striking recapitulation of the last 40 years of private and public patronage, including several royal commissions. The book will be both working tool and outstanding collector's piece." "Alan Reynolds Stone , CBE , RDI (13. März 1909 - 23. Juni 1979), besser bekannt als Reynolds Stone, war ein bekannter englischer Holzstecher, Graveur, Designer, Typograf und Maler."
