Limited to an edition of 45 copies. Poem by Walter Lambersy, illustrated with five etchings by Bracaval. Signed by both on the colophon. Interesting presentation with heavy handmade paper wrapper containing the three signatures of rich, thick paper which is folded, but unsewn. The edges of both the wrapper and interior papers are untrimmed. Lambersy was born in 1941in Antwerp. He has lived in Paris since 1982. Bracaval has been awarded many prizes through nearly four decades beginning with the Prix Lafont in 1967 and most recently the Prix Robert Beltz in 2002. His works are continually exhibited and are held in such public collections as the Centre George Pompidou, British Library, and the Boston Athenaeum.
