“Prefaced by a title-page which expresses [Crane’s] concept of symbolic illustration – here a nude female figure intertwined with her hair, and a flight of doves rising with the dawn of a new day. As a backdrop, the curves of the artist’s palette are played off against a rectangular mass of white upon which the lettering in black is imposed.” Nelson, Early Nineties , p. 66. Large tear to inner portfolio flap, light soiling to boards, and some silk ties missing. Externally very good, internally fine.
