Opis od sprzedawcy
"The Compleat Angler" by Izaak Walton and illustrated by Arthur Rackham (ill)
George Harrap, London - 1931 first UK Rackham edition - 224p, 25cmx20cm - with 12 colored plates by Rackham and some in-text b/w illustrations - condition: a very good copy complete with all plates, some rubbing to boards, rare original dustwrapper pasted on front endpaper.
No fewer than six plates have landscape backgrounds, plates which should remind us of Rackham's very serious reputation as a landscape painter, with a fine vision of natural forms" (Gettings, Arthur Rackham, p. 159). Latimore & Haskell, pp. 66-67. Riall, p. 175.
The Compleat Angler (the spelling is sometimes modernised to The Complete Angler, though this spelling also occurs in first editions) is a book by Izaak Walton. It was first published in 1653 by Richard Marriot in London. Walton continued to add to it for a quarter of a century. It is a celebration of the art and spirit of fishing in prose and verse.
