Sobre este artículo
New York: The Limited Editions Club, 1986. First edition. Hardcover. Fine. Full morocco folio, approximately 14.25 x 10.5 inches. One of only 40 portfolios containing the original photogravures produced by Mapplethorpe for the Limited Editions Club edition of Rimbaud's A Season in Hell. Each photogravure numbered, initialed and dated in pencil by Mapplethorpe, all tissue-guarded. Completely fine. Black cloth folding panels inside holding a letter press sheet containing the complete set of Mapplethorpe images: eight dust-grain photogravure plates, loose. The images are all as new. A stunning set, printed in two colors -- black wiped onto the etched area and yellow rolled onto the surface as a final step in preparing the plate for printing. Mapplethorpe explores both Rimbaud's life (the gun image referring to when he was shot by Verlaine) and his own difficult relationship with Catholicism. Very rare and very beautiful.
