1947 CÉZANNE | The Faber Gallery
An early first edition devoted to Paul Cézanne, published by Faber and Faber as part of The Faber Gallery, a beautifully designed series of vintage art monographs.
With an introduction and notes by British artist and art critic Adrian Stokes, this volume presents Cézanne’s work through a selection of carefully reproduced color plates, including landscapes, still lifes, bathers, portraits, and his celebrated card players.
What makes these little Faber Gallery books so special is their design. Beneath the original dust jacket is a beautifully patterned printed paper wrapper, giving the book an especially lovely vintage presence.
A wonderful piece for a Cézanne collection, an art book shelf, or anyone drawn to the early history of color art reproduction.
One of five Faber Gallery titles currently available from this collection: Cézanne, Klee, Van Gogh, Matisse, and Pieter Bruegel.
