1985 . Unique screenprint in colours, 1985, on Lenox Museum Board, signed in pencil, numbered and inscribed 'TP' a unique trial proof, aside from the standard edition of 40, printed by Rupert Jasen Smith, New York, published by George C. P. Mulder, Amsterdam, 100 x 80 cm. (39¼ x 31½ in.) frieze23 Queen Ntombi Twala is one of four portraits which makeup Warhol's renowned portfolio Reigning Queens, 1985. Each of the four Queens were chosen by the artist because they assumed their thrones through birthright. Queen Ntombi Twala remains the current ruling monarch of Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) along with her son and is considered an important, powerful addition to Warhol's series as the only non-European Queen. Using his characteristic vibrant colour blocking and off-register line drawing technique, Warhol has transformed this regal state portrait into one that is distinctly 'Pop'. In this transformation, Warhol is further building on the regal status of Queen Ntombi to that of international…

Description:
For the author, 1865. . Original hand-coloured lithograph. Mounted, overall size: 69cm by 52.6cm. John Gould (1804-1881) is widely considered the greatest and most ambitious of all Victorian ornithologists, combining both artistic skill and beauty and anatomical accuracy. Following in the great tradition of Natural History illustrators, such as Barraband and Audubon, Gould enlisted the services of some of the most notable ornithological artists, including Edward Lear, Joseph Wolf and his own wife Elizabeth to compile the most outstanding and comprehensive bodies of work in this field. Comprising of eighteen major works he illustrated the birds of the world, from Asia, New Guinea, Europe, and Great Britain to the Families of Toucans, Trogons and Hummingbirds.

Description:
Paris, The Olympia Press, 1956. . First edition; 8vo (175 x 105 mm, 7 x 4¼ in); black-and-white photographs printed in gravure in the second state, matte as opposed to glossy, design by T. [Shinkichi] Tajiri, light toning to edges; illustrated wrappers printed in yellow, black, and grey, light wear to extremities, reading creases to spine, 'Librairie Leduc, Paris' bookseller's label on title-page, an excellent copy; [ii], 171, [5], with 30pp of gravure photographs (two double-page spreads). Henry Miller based this novella on his experiences as an American expatriate living in Paris, coupled with the Hungarian-born photographer Brassai's nocturnal photographs of the city. Brassai's ability to observe details and scenes that usually went unnoticed led Miller, who based a character in The Tropic of Cancer (1934) on him, to remark in The Wisdom of the Heart (1941) that he 'has that rare gift which so many artists despise normal vision. He has no need to distort or deform, no need to lie or to…
