Description
1988. MOTHERWELL, Robert. Ulysses. By James Joyce. 838 pp. With 40 etchings by Robert Motherwell, of which 20 are in colour. Thick folio, 322 x 240 mm., bound in original publisher's white half-pigskin over blue patterned silk over boards, in original blue patterned silk box. San Francisco: Arion Press, 1988. A fine copy of one of the seminal books produced in America in the twentieth century. Robert Motherwell (1915-1991), a founder of Abstract Expressionism, counted Joyce as his favorite modern author and drew upon his writing for titles to his paintings, drawings, and prints throughout his career. The project was four years in planning and a year and a half in production. Copies with the white pigskin still in fine condition are extremely rare. Edition limited to 150 copies, signed by Motherwell on the statement of limitation. The type is Monotype and handset Perpetua, printed by letterpress on French mouldmade Johannot. The intaglio printing was done by R. E. Townsend, Inc., Georgetown, Massachusetts, in black and 19 colours on heavier-weight Johannot. Slipcase with a little fading, else fine. Arion Press 27.
