Issued in conjunction with a 2014 exhibition that "offers an extraordinary perspective on a remarkable tradition. During the Qing dynasty 1644-1911 the passion for opera and theater permeated the everyday visual and material world. Spanning all strata of Chinese society and manifested throughout Chinese visual culture this preoccupation asserts itself in an astonishing range of products -- from the artifacts of theatrical performance to everything from scroll paintings and popular prints to illustrated books painted fans ceramics textiles utensils and dioramas. This book brings together a sampling of some of the most compelling examples of these varied media and in so doing sheds new light on not only the role of opera in China but also its pervasive influence." foreword.

201110486Octon France: Verdigris Press 2011. Artist's book one of 4 deluxe copies from a total issue of 40 all on Hahnemulhe paper each copy signed by the artist Judith Rothchild and initialed by the author in pencil as is the numbering. Page size: 6-1/4 x 8-1/4 inches; 20pp; printed on 5 folios. Bound: loose as issued housed in grey wrappers printed in black the whole in custom-made burgundy paper over boards clamshell box with black paper edges title author artist and press printed in black on spine with exposed grey cloth hinges. The deluxe edition contains one of the 4 four original copper plates used for the stunning mezzotints of interior scenes by Ms. Rothchild. Also included in the deluxe copy is an original pencil and ink wash drawing. This interior scene is mounted into the inside front cover of the clamshell box with the original copper plate mounted into the rear inside cover. Both are "framed" with hand marbled paper in deep grey with white inset. <br/>Seemingly a simple series of interiors accompanied by words about the spaces it is a very powerful "aide-memoire" - visualizing and verbalizing the power of rooms and the objects therein bathed in their own peculiar light - to elicit memories / sensations all but forgotten. The artist tells us that the images were made from drawings at a friend's apartment. The parents of her friend established a bilingual journal in Paris creating a literary circle with included Henry Miller and Lawrence Durrell. Temple friendship with the publishers dates from this time and endures through an almost familial relationship with their daughter the artist's friend whose apartment is depicted.<br/>The original pencil and wash composition is of another location entirely. This is one of the public rooms in the Grand Hotel in Sete a port on the Mediterranean about one hour from Octon the home of Verdigris Press. <br/>The text is hand set in Vendome romain and printed letterpress by Mark Lintott who also made the clamshell boxes. Each of the folios has been marbled in a most subtle shade of blue - delicate and yet full of life with swirls compelling one to open the folio to the mezzotint on the verso. This is a very beautiful book - elegant and restrained - just what one has come to expect from Judith Rothchild and Mark Lintott. Verdigris Press unknown books

From Introduction: The Heritage Trail from Horse Creek to Davenport follows the trails of Davenport’s history across northeastern Polk County through beautiful forests and over the sand hills. At first it was a faint trail traveled by the Indians and Spaniards. Later the army enlarged and added to the existing paths which were widened and paved. Steel rails created easier ways for early settlers to penetrate the interior of the state. There is much to see along the way and many interesting people to meet. Thank you for joining me on this journey. Welcome to Davenport! First I would like to clarify some ambiguous names such as the City of Davenport the two Lake Davenports and the two different names for Horse Creek. The designation for many of the roads may seem confusing. Even though my family arrived here in 1911 and I have lived here most of my life I was unsure about some of these issues. I have talked to many older residents eagerly gone to governmental agencies musuems libraries and on field trips searching for the answers to these and other questions. With each question answered the puzzle pieces have fallen into place and the picture has become clear. On this journey we can turn back the hands of time and experience history as it happened. For those who are new to the area I hope the information provided will help you find your way around northeast Polk County more easily. Information about the location of the neighboring villages and other documents may be found in Appendix 3. Hands of Time Enterprises, LLC, (2013). paperback books
