See More... (Whittington Press) Gerry, Leslie and Robin Llywelyn PORTMEIRION
DELUXE EDITION (Lower Marston Farm, Risbury Whittington Press 2008 4to. paper covered boards, clamshell box
This deluxe edition contains a 23" x 33" foldout illustration, 8 loose 12" x 16" illustrations, and a custom clamshell box.

Portmeirion is the extraordinary Italianate village created by the architect and town-planner Clough Williams-Ellis on a remote peninsula in North Wales.

The double-spread images in Portmeirion brilliantly capture its architectural eccentricities in a pageant of colour created by the artist in the form of a series of seven original prints drawn on an electronic tablet, a technique he has exploited that is in many ways the successor to the Jean Berte and pochoir processes in that it achieves its effects by superimposing layers of flat colour on top of one another.

Clough's grandson, Robin Llywelyn, who spent much of his childhood at Portmeirion, provides a vivid and concise commentary on each scene, tracing the development of the village from its beginnings in 1925 and describes how Clough put 'fallen buildings', rescued from demolition before and after the war, to brilliantly creative use in his uniquely bizarre concept of Portmeirion.

The images are printed by the artist on Somerset mould-made paper, and the text, on alternate openings, is set in 24-point Caslon and printed on a heavyweight Zerkall chamois geglattet mould-made paper in a threadless zig-zag binding.

Printed in an edition limited to 800 copies, this being one of 715 trade copies. Matrix is the longest surviving and probably the last typographical journal to be printed by letterpress. It is an eclectic mix of fine printing, type design, and small press lore, forming a record of events and personalities whose memory would otherwise have died with their recorders. It is no exaggeration to say that in the future it will be impossible to research fine printing without reference to Matrix. This issue contains twenty-five articles and additional book reviews, including: Anthony Dowd, "Fine Press and the Bookbinder"; Miriam MacGregor, "The Forgotten Pleasure of Hand-Printing"; Lucy Archer, "Working with Olive Cook"; Michael Caine, "My Concatenation of Types"; Dennis Gould, "Latterday Letterpress Printer"; and Simon Lawrence, "Aspects of Golden Gockerel."
