Description from the seller
Original sketch for the frontispiece for Christmas Cards II + print
Christmas cards from 2000 is a book in which my Christmas cards from 1985-2000 are collected. The successor from 1924 is, of course, Christmas Cards Part II with the cards for 2001 through 2025 (the latter I had finished by the end of 2024). I actually quite like frontispieces without a title; and if I produce something entirely myself, I can decide that as well.
This II is a sibling to No. 1; somewhere near the Westertoren, Franka buys her Christmas trees. On it she walks through the Raadhuisstraat; in II she is on her way to the head of the Rozengracht, the other way. In both, the Westertoren is central. Cover 1 is a vertical one-page plate, Cover II is a horizontal two-page spread: that’s also something I like.
The winner of this lot will also receive, for this auction, in an edition of 150 unnumbered copies, a special print in color on A4, signed by Henk Kuijpers. The original of this print is also in this auction (see lot 150).
