About This Item
Tate Publishing 2018. Hardcover. New. Blake. Quentin. This beautiful hardback special edition of Quentin Blakes Pens, Ink and Places is one of just 200 copies, each signed and numbered by the artist himself. Comes with a blue slip-cover presentation case Following the enormous success of Words and Pictures and Beyond the Page, this third volume continues a narrative of visual adventures of unusual diversity. It ranges from a touching series of vignettes for Great Ormond Street Hospital to gigantic drawings for the Jerwood Gallery in Hastings; from the sombre apocalyptic landscapes of Riddley Walker to the energetic fantasy of Billy and the Minpins, and includes interpretations of work by John Ruskin, La Fontaine, Lucius Apuleius and Beatrix Potter. The accompanying commentary straight, as it were, from the drawing board explores the challenges and opportunities in the creation of drawings known around the world, as well as others seen here for the first time. It is clear from every page of this informative and richly illustrated volume that there has been no slackening of brio in the scratchy pen nib of an artist who has been called the Godfather of Illustration. Still in shrink wrap. Mint in slipcase.
