Dublin: The Salvage Press, 2018. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine in Fine Archival Box. Limited Edition. Hardcover. "In this series of poems, Doireann NÃ GhrÃofa responds to art by Alice Maher. Nine Silences is a consideration of the embodiment of female silence, mermaids, and the monstrousness of the feminine, deepening into an exploration of the otherness of female desire and domesticity." [artist statement]
Designed, typeset and letterpress printed by Jamie Murphy with great assistance from Sarah O'Neill, Lorcan Rush and Lauren Shannon O'Brien at Distillers Press, NCAD, Dublin.

Printed in an edition of 80 books. Copies numbered 1 - 50 have been bound in marbled paper over boards, housed in a transparent perspex slipcase. Four similar copies marked i - iv are for collaborators.

Moderate rubbing along edges of slipcase. Age wear on binding with front board detached (but present) and leather missing on spine. Very minor age-toning along paper margin. Text in French. Slipcase…

Descrição:
London: William Heinemann, 1909. Signed limited first edition, number 425 of 1000 copies, of Arthur Rackham's illustrated version of this German tale, first published in 1811. Celebrated for his depictions of fairy creatures, Rackham is ideally suited for this tale of a water spirit seeking a soul: "below sparkle, stately and solemn, many noble ruins, washed by the loving waters which win from them delicate moss-flowers and entwining clusters of sea-grass. Those who dwell there are very fair." Rackham's wave designs, in particular, lend a Japanese woodblock-inspired Art Nouveau element to the work, as in the image of Undine sinking into the Danube. A near-fine example of the best of the Golden Age of Illustration. Quarto, measuring 11.5 x 9 inches: viii, 136. Original full vellum, front board lettered and decorated in gilt with vignette by Rackham, spine elaborately ornamented in gilt, top edge gilt, other edges uncut, stiff brown endpapers. Half-title, with limitation signed by Rackham on verso.…
