A very good example. Magnificent plate no.13 from the 7th and final volume of John Gould's magisterial "Birds of Asia" published over a twenty-three year period 1850-1883. <br> <br>"Numerous as have been the acquisitions rendered to ornithology during the last few years by the opening up of the great countries of China Yunnan and the vast territories lying between our Indian frontier and the Celestial Empire here has not been one fraught with greater interest than the fine Pheasant figured in the accompanying Plate. <br> <br>This beautiful bird is a native of Borneo and at first sight it might seem as if it might have been kept in one or other of the genera of gallinaceous birds.but on closer inspection it will be found to differ not only from these birds but from every from of Pheasant yet discovered; and I quite agree with Mr Sharpe who has had the honour of describing this magnificent species that its generic separation was necessary."

WALTER-FILM007601United Artists. No binding. Just About Fine. Vintage original 22 x 28" 56 x 72 cm half sheet poster style A. Backed with conservation paper a tiny amount of conservation in white background above the word "VIOLENCE" overall just about fine or even slightly better. The film was very quickly retitled as Gun Crazy during its initial release. Hence any Deadly is the Female posters are unusually scarce because they were so quickly discarded in favor of the retitled posters all of which had entirely different artwork. Distributor United Artists created two entirely different half sheets for this film labeled styles A and B. This poster is the style A version. This poster is extremely scarce -- Heritage auctioned the B style only twice once in 2004 for $920 and once in 2007 for $717 and that last sale was nineteen years ago. Furthermore Heritage has never auctioned any example of this style A. United Artists unknown
WALTER-FILM000196No binding. Very Good. Fine Art Print Vintage original 14 x 22"" 35 x 55 cm. window card poster USA. Feodor Chaliapin Sr. George Robey Oscar Asche Miles Mander Sidney Fox dir: Georg Wilhelm Pabst; United Artists. The story of an elderly gentlemen in 16th century Spain who goes mad after reading too much about chivalry claims himself a knight and sets out with a small entourage to revive that age. With songs this version of the famous tale would later be realized as the musical MAN OF LA MANCHA. Three versions were filmed for 3 different languages -- English French and German -- with the famous Russian-born opera singer Feodor Chaliapin playing in all three versions resulting in three somewhat different films. This work is one of the only times Chaliapin was captured on film. He is known to have been the first opera singer to concern himself with a believably-acted presentation of character. This card displays beautifully and has been cleaned and backed. There were some creases/tears in the ""C"" of ""Chaliapin"" which has had a bit of touch-up. An area in the top center has been addressed. An area at the bottom of the sword has also had a bit of touch-up and a tear at the center of Chaliapin's neck extending from the right edge has had a touch-up. An inner tear below the windmill has been addressed. A few minor edge creases have been smoothed out VERY GOOD-FINE. unknown books

In 2019 the Fukuoka Art Museum ç¦å²¡å¸‚美術館 Fukuoka-shi Bijutsukan held an exhibit of his work from the magazine. He was a founding member of Nihon Hanga KyÅkai and contributed to numerous important works. His hanko ‘S’ is within the woodcut.<br /> <br /> August - The red flower illustrated by Azechi UmetarŠ畦地 梅太郎 1902-1999 in the woodcut for August may well be a cliff flower as Azechi was a mountain climber as well as an artist.

His work is known under both names and often bears the character hachi ‘鉢†within a red hexagon as it does here in the October print of autumn foliage as viewed through a window. He was a watercolor artist as well as a printmaker; his work in both were awarded numerous prizes over the years. Institutions in Japan hold his works as well as the British Museum which holds 6 of his prints and the MFA Boston which holds 3.<br /> <br /> November - Maekawa Senpan å‰å·åƒå¸† 1888-1960 was one of the most important of all the mid-century SÅsaku Hanga 創作版画 Creative Print Movement artists.

201232906San Francisco: Deeply Game Publications 2012. Hardcover. Fine. Hardcover. Number 45 of 55 copies. Signed by the author and book artists. Book artist Sara Press collaborated with Andrew Rottner to create this exquisite tribute to printing's golden age. "The story by Christina Lauritsen mis-remembers H.C. Andersen's classic tale of the same name transforming it into a story of revelation and madness. The visual progression of the book mirrors the plot pitting the beauty of the decorative arts against the intense and unpredictable messiness of human experience. This book confronts the inevitability of loss and bows to intellectual freedom and its attendant risks." artists' statement. The book is printed in Garamond and Bembo types on Moab Entrada paper. It features two 26 inch wide foldouts with illustrations by Rottner. The striking cover is done from a cut-marbled-paper and brocade. The book measures 7 x 9 inches. It is unpaginated. Deeply Game Productions creates and distributes the art works of Sara Press and her collaborators. Sara L. Press is a photographer printmaker and book artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Many of her projects examine peculiar areas of overlap between nature and culture for example: dog fighting feral children and our co-evolution with snakes. Sara has also wrestled with the relationship between creativity and the scientific method. Recently Sara has turned to constructions of masculinity and femininity in our culture such as human bloodsports and altered fairy-tales. Her work can be seen in public collections around the country and are also in many library and private collections. A lovely book in fine condition. PRI/021919. Deeply Game Publications hardcover
