19298747<p>Number 381 of 485 copies on paper there were also 15 on vellum. Along with Troilus and Criseyde and The Four Gospels The Canterbury Tales is one of the high points of the Golden Cockerel Press. It perhaps stands above above all in Gill's masterful designs forming as Colin Franklin pointed out an integral part of the book's success — 'not quite illustration but far transcending decoration'. 'The balance of text and illustration goes further than typography . Most of the borders are leaf and stem but among the leaves hiding or beckoning climbing or leaning out are girls and men kings and boys priests and nuns who take part or seem to be commenting on the stories. A young man is whistling across the page two fingers at his mouth to a girl; Chaucer himself waves to a little god of love facing across his own poem; a sad lover looks over to Christ crucifies; Pan blows pipes and a naked girl hearing him prepares to climb her tree; a nineteen-twentyish girl climbs up and a sad young bearded man looking like Robert Gibbings sits supporting the whole tree's weight opposite; Chaucer is writing with confidence under the leaves taking it down by dictation from the naughty spirit looking down and over the lines. So the pattern continues affectionate and cheeky erotic enjoyable and relevant decorative and explanatory a balance of taste and eye' Franklin.</p><p>4 volumes small folio 310 × 190 mm pp. 4 150 2; 4 188 2; 4 196 2; 4 218 4.
