(Ziggurat Press)
XIV Shakespeare Sonnets. XIV Original Woodcuts.
Providence, RI: Ziggurat Press, 1987. Octavo. (14)ff., + 14 plates. One of thirty-five copies, signed on the front cover by Walter Feldman, the artist and printer. Fourteen of Shakespeare's sonnets are here printed in a range of colors, and each receives both a woodcut header and a facing woodcut plate. Feldman's geometric and abstract style lends the sonnets due emotional range; the viewer is forced to linger on each sonnet along with each image, probing through their own abstract reactions. Bound in gray handmade paper wrappers, and further sewn into a dust wrapper of peach paper with paper label. Fine, held in a chemise. Item #31361
