Illustrations by Terry Schupbach-Gordon. Sewn binding. Illustrated paper title label tipped on front cover. Terry Schupbach-Gordon: "This very sad poem was written by Francis William Bourdillon (1852 -1921). ... This sad poem actually made me quite happy because I found a use for several pieces of hand printed papers that I've had for many years. I had almost given up hoping to find a use for them, but now, my reputation as a pack rat has been justified!"

Description:
Austin: Texas Writers Project, 2000. Original . Broadside. FINE. 24 x 36 inches, printed on high quality coated stock with metalic ink. Shipped- rolled in heavy tube. This fabulous poster was created especially for the featured author of Texas Writers Month in 2000 held in Austin, Texas by graphic designer Marc English. It is printed on heavy high quality coated stock in metalic inks: silver and bronze and laid over a duotone photograph of the rugged Big Bend country of West Texas. The poster quotes a long scene from McCarthy's BLOOD MERIDIAN with drops of bronze red blood for emphasis. This is a stunning visual and carries the impact of the original text depicting a scene of horror as the savages line up on horseback along the ridge their glass beads and painted bodies caught forever in the sun's hot glare as they anticipate the massacre that would follow. Only McCarthy could make this scene so vivid you might have to put the book down and never finish it.
