Dzama, Marcel The Berlin Years
McSweeney's 2003 0971904790 First Edition Softcover Near Fine
Includes 32 individual, loose-leaf, full-size, high-quality reproductions of Dzama"s work, suitable for framing. All enclosed in a closeable folder. Includes the separate sheet of introduction by Viggo Mortensen. Does NOT include the 32-page scrapbook. The prints are all fine while the folder is nearly fine with a bump and light wear to the lower corners. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; Marcel Dzama has changed everything about art that involves alligators and men in bear costumes holding guns. Dzama is from Winnipeg, and his work shows frequently in New York and on Beck's album covers. Sometimes he paints with root beer. This book — it's not even a book at all, really — is an envelope with 32 loose-leaf prints good enough to frame; plus a scrapbook; plus an insert card; plus an introduction by Sarah Vowell, recently brought back into existence after a long absence — and it's a wonderfully multifaceted introduction to the work of a really amazing artist.

Franklin Library 1984 First Edition Thus Hardcover Near Fine
Bound in full dark green leather with gilt decoration. All page edges are gilt, bound-in silk marker, silk endpapers. In excellent condition but for a former owner's bookplate to a rear blank page. ; The Collected stories of the world's greatest writers; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) made her fictional debut when "Scenes of Clerical Life" appeared in "Blackwood's Magazine" in 1857. These stories contain Eliot's earliest studies of what became enduring themes in her great novels: the impact of religious controversy and social change in provincial life, and the power of love to transform the lives of individual men and women. "Adam Bede" was soon to appear and bring George Eliot fame and fortune. In the meantime the "Scenes" won acclaim from a discerning readership including Charles Dickens: 'I hope you will excuse my writing to you to express my admiration...The exquisite truth and delicacy, both of the humour and the pathos of those stories, I have never seen the like of'.

Evans, Walker; Kirstein, Lincoln American Photographs 50th (Fiftieth) Anniversary Edition
New York Museum of Modern Art (1988) 0870702378 Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket
Black cloth with lettering on the spine in blind. A beautiful copy, just about a fine copy with no markings, bookplates, or wear. The dust jacket has a 1/4" closed tear to the lower, front edge at the spine. There is a 3/8" ragged tear to the upper, rear spine corner with associated longer creasing. A couple of small marks of soiling. Not price clipped. Very nice copy indeed. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; Errata Editions' Books on Books series is an ongoing publishing project dedicated to making rare and out-of-print photography books accessible to students and photobook enthusiasts. These are not reprints or facsimiles but complete studies of the original books. Each volume in the series presents the entire content, page for page, of an original master bookwork which, up until now, has been too rare or expensive for most to experience. Through a mix of classic and contemporary titles, this series spans the breadth of photographic practice as it has appeared on the printed page and allows further study of the creation and meanings of these great works of art. Each volume in the series contains illustrations of every page in the original photobook, a new essay by an established writer on photography, production notes about the creation of the original edition and biographical and bibliographical information about each artist.
Walker Evans' American Photographs is arguably the most important photobook ever published. Originally conceived as a catalogue to accompany Evan's one-man show at The Museum of Modern Art in 1938, it has been out of print for many long stretches of time. Books on Books 2 presents the original 1938 edition with the 87 legendary black-and-white photographs that defined the documentary-style aesthetic. This volume also reproduces Lincoln Kirstein's great original essay as well as a contemporary piece by John T. Hill, the author of many books on Evans, including Lyric Documentary, published in 2006.

Both book and jacket have very slight wear. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 237 pages; This book offers a fascinating new dimension to the history of Roman society and of gardening and horticulture. The author, a classicist and archaeology with a special interest in gardening and garden history, traces the development of Roman gardens from their humble origins as vegetable patches to the sophisticated landscapes of the rich and famous at the height of the Empire. This fully illustrated study features evidence from gardens in Italy and from archaeological sites throughout the countryside with information on literature, frescoes, mosaics, sculptures and architecture to provide a vivid picture of the rich variety of Roman gardens, their common plants and exotic trees and flowers, their splendid arbors, and fanciful sculptures and mosaics. The habits of Roman gardeners, their tools and horticultural techniques and landscape designs complete this classical gardening tour of ancient Rome.

Nothing is wanting to heighten the effect. The style is Renaissance. The walls have a high wainscot of Circassian walnut, with red Spanish damask of two shades above. The walnut mantelpiece between the windows is paneled with brass ornaments, and is richly gilt, the overmantel being filled with a life-sized portrait of Mr. Flagler. Then comes the art gallery and music-room, an apartment of large size, admirably designed for the choice collection of paintings it contains. It is treated in old ivory and antique gold. In the center of the ceiling is a copy of Guido Reni's "Aurora." It is lighted with jeweled crystal chandeliers. At one end is a large pipe organ. The next room is the billiard-room, a quaint apartment in the Swiss style. The beamed ceiling is distinctly Teutonic in decorative feeling. The grand salon is on the right of the hall, corresponding to the library. It is Louis XVI. in style, and is a sumptuous apartment in French gray, the walls paneled in gold and gray brocaded silk. It contains a beautiful mantel of white statuary marble; the ceiling has decorated medallions; the portieres are richly embroidered, and the furniture is elaborate and costly. Immediately adjoining it is the dining-room, most hospitable in size. The style is Francois I., and the color scheme a rich green; the walls have a paneled wainscot of satinwood below and a rich brocade above. The elaborate mantelpiece supports a mirror. The beautiful ceiling is coffered in large squares, with ornaments in high relief, and is green and cream. The furniture was expressly made for this room. Adjoining the dining-room is a small breakfast-room, in ivory enamel; the ceiling ornamentation is tipped with gold; the furniture is mahogany with bronz...
