Sobre este item
New York : Heritage Press, 1963, 1963. Very Good. xxx, 470 p. : ill. ; 27 cm. ; LCCN: 63-5353 ; LC: QH365; Dewey: 575.0162; OCLC: 1563903 ; with a new preface by Charles G. Darwin ; iIllustrated with wood engravings by Paul Landacre. ; Paul Hambleton Landacre was one of the outstanding printmakers of the modern era. His distinguished body of work was largely responsible for elevating the wood engraving to an art form in twentieth-century America. Landacre's linocuts and wood engravings of landscapes, still lifes, nudes, and abstractions are celebrated for their technical virtuosity and mastery of design....In March 1932, the artist and his wife moved to a rustic house in the Echo Park neighborhood, also known as Edendale, near downtown Los Angeles, where they lived for the remainder of their lives. Landacre died in 1963 soon after—and emotionally resulting from—the death of his wife who had been an essential working companion for 38 years, even helping the artist late in his life pull impressions from the formidable Washington hand press. In March 2006, with the growing appreciation of Landacre's artistic significance, their hillside home was declared a City of Los Angeles landmark.--Wikipedia ; some fading and a very light stain on the textblock, else VG in worn slipcase.
