Zen Gardens - James Kirkup & Birgit Skiold
£285.00
KIRKUP, James & Birgit Skiold.
Zen Gardens.
First edition. 4to. Ten loose folded sheets of textured rag paper housed within a brown cloth solander box. One of 75 copies printed in English, this marked as an A/P and signed by both Kirkup and Skiold. Guildford: Circle Press, 1993.
The solander box lightly bumped. A near fine copy.
Handsome edition of previously unpublished poems by James Kirkup illustrated with coloured etchings by Birgit Skiold and hand-printed by the artist. A beautiful, thoughtful edition in its pairing of text and image. There were apparently also 25 copies printed in Japanese.
