To the left, we show a rare copy of
The Arabian Nights with colour illustrations
by René
Bull and monotone images by Helen Stratton. This 1st Edition - containing
a
new suite of images by Bull from those published in 1912 - was published by
Blackie
& Son Limited(London) in 1930 and shows the decoratively
multi-coloured
stamped green cover.
The Arabian Nights published by Blackie &
Sons Limited (London) in 1930 contains a suite of colour images
by Bull in
addition to a multitude of monotone illustrations by Helen
Stratton. The colour illustrations contributed by Bull are a
different suite
of images from those he prepared for an earlier version of this title, but
are, nevertheless, of a similar
style.
Our Greeting Cards and Reproduction Prints
For connoisseurs of Bull's work, we have prepared sets of 16 Greeting Cards displaying
each of his colour images for The Arabian Nights (1930) and on the left, we show an example of how these Greeting
Cards appear.
Code: RB
AN1930 CS(16) Price: US$80.00
When presented on Greeting Cards, these
images are prepared as tipped-on
plates - in hommage to the hand-crafted
approach typical
of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades
of the 20th Century. Each card is
hand-finished and and the images are presented
on Ivory card stock with an
accompanying envelope. The rear of each
card carries information about René Bull, this wonderful suite and the profiled
illustration - we have left the interior
of the cards blank so that
you may write your own personal message.
Should you wish to order a Reproduction Print of one or
more of these images, we have provided some options below.
Each of these large format prints is also accompanied by
information about René Bull, this suite and the profiled
illustration.
