Specificatii
Night visions A fine art portfolio of Kay Nielsen's sumptuous A
Thousand and One Nights In the late 1910s, in a Europe ravaged by
World War I, Danish illustrator Kay Nielsen put the finishing
touches on his illustrations of A Thousand and One Nights. The
results are considered masterpieces of early 20th-century
illustration: bursting with sumptuous colors of deep blues, reds,
and gold leaf, and evoking all the magic of this legendary
collection of Indo-Persian and Arabic folktales, compiled between
the 8th and 13th centuries. In the financially strapped postwar
climate, however, publishers retreated from Nielsen's project and
the publication never happened. A rising star, Nielsen moved on to
other work, and the spectacular pen, ink, and watercolor images of
this world heritage classic remained under lock and key for 40
years. Published just once in the 1970s, the illustrations were
rescued from oblivion after Nielsen's death in 1957 and are now
held by the UCLA Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts at the Hammer
Museum in Los Angeles, the Art Institute of Chicago, and in two
private collections. Published for the first time ever in five
colors including gold, this unique presentation of fine art prints
revives all 21 strikingly beautiful illustrations reproduced
directly from Nielsen's original watercolors- the only complete set
of his beloved illustrations to have survived. Each illustration is
presented individually in an extra-large format and on fine art
paper, allowing Nielsen's graphic mastery and rich array of
influences, from Art Nouveau to Japanese woodcuts to Indian
painting, to dazzle. The set also includes a 144-page hardcover
book also printed in five colors, featuring descriptions of all of
the images, and three generously illustrated essays on the making
of this series, the origin of Nielsen's unique imagery, and a
history of the tales. In addition, the accompanying book features
many unpublished or rarely seen artworks by Nielsen, as well as all
23 of the incredibly intricate black-and-;white drawings Nielsen
also created for the original publication. This is a rare chance to
own exceptional reproductions of this highly-influential artist's
only surviving complete set of watercolors.Text in English, French,
