Descripción del artículo del vendedor

"The Leopard and the Imagination - Kipling Recast in Gold and Light" One of 1,000 Copies with Original Signed Etching KIPLING, Rudyard. Just So Stories for Little Children. Introduced by Michael Morpurgo. Illustrated by Niroot Puttapipat. London: The Folio Society, 2012. Limited Edition. One of 1,000 numbered copies, each with an original signed copperplate etching of The Leopard by the artist; this copy no. 975. Folio (12 3/4 x 9 5/8 inches; 324 x 245 mm.). [2, blank], [4, limitation statement and original signed etching], [2, blank], [1-6], 7-195, [1, blank], [1], [3, blank] pp. Fourteen tipped-in color plates, including frontispiece, by Niroot Puttapipat. Hand-bound by The Fine Book Bindery, Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, in quarter white vellum over brown boards, elaborately blocked in gold, silver, bronze, and black, smooth spine lettered in gilt, tan pictorial endpapers, top edge gilt. Housed in the original brown cloth clamshell case, spine with black paper label lettered in gilt. A mint, as new example. Niroot Puttapipat (b. 1971) is among the most accomplished contemporary book artists, renowned for his intricate, highly decorative style that blends Eastern and Western influences. Working with techniques such as gold leaf, embossing, and finely layered color, his illustrations evoke the richness of traditional manuscript illumination while retaining a distinctly modern sensibility. His limited-edition books have become increasingly sought after for their craftsmanship and visual sophistication. Michael Morpurgo (b. 1943), former Children's Laureate and author of War Horse, is one of the most celebrated writers of modern children's literature. His introduction situates Kipling's tales within their enduring storytelling tradition, emphasizing their rhythm, wit, and oral charm. A sumptuous modern interpretation of Kipling's timeless tales, this edition unites fine press craftsmanship with one of the most distinctive illustrative voices working today. The inclusion of an original signed etching - depicting the iconic Leopard - further elevates the book into the realm of the collector. One of the more elegant and desirable Folio Society limited editions of recent years.
