A propos de cet article

UNBOUND. Philip Pullman - À Outrance Ruscombe Art Edition. Philip Pullman & Joan Byers. This special edition illustrated letterpress was commissioned in 2009 and is taken from A Outrance in Philip Pullman's novel, Northern Lights. This book tells of the great fight between the bear kings, as chronicled in Northern Lights, with a special introduction by the author. Some of the world's finest designer bookbinders were commissioned to produce fifteen individual hand-bound copies, of which this is one. All offer exceptionally beautiful one-off examples of how each artist interpreted the book. Each has been meticulously printed letterpress by hand on traditional cast iron Heidelberg Press, one sheet and one colour at a time on paper handmade at the famous Ruscombe Mill in France. This copy was exhibited in Oxford University's Bodleian Library. Unbound reflects the vast, open white space being freed from evil. Full printed alum goat skin in ivory white with raised images of the two fighting bears, Iorek Byrnison, on the front cover and Iofur Raknison on the back. White leather headbands and black leather inner hinges. The black endpapers have the embossed image of a bear on the lower corners and are slightly cockled, reflecting the eerie cold north. The edges are uncut to match the handmade paper and add to the ruggedness of the story. Joan chose black and white to reflect the fight between good and evil . The box is covered in soft black leather and lined with black felt. In addition to signing the book, Philip Pullman has inscribed this copy with a line of text. Each volume is encased in its own slipcase and accompanied by a set of six woodcut images used within the book. Each print is signed by the author and artist and is produced in a format suitable for framing. Oak Tree Fine Press is primarily a volunteer organisation; all profits from the sale of this book go to children living with or affected by the HIV/AIDS global pandemic. Your support of this initiative has a direct impact on children all over the world.…

Description de la boutique

Inspired by the private and fine press movements, Oak Tree Fine Press was founded in 2006 to create beautifully designed limited editions of great books to benefit children living with or affected by HIV/Aids in Africa.
