Alpha Books, Sydney, 1968. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Illustrator: Various. 550 g; 128 pages, includes notes on illustrations and sources, illustrated with 62 images reproduced, either in colour or in black-and-white. In original hardcover binding, the book shows no damage. The "fine art" of the title relates, not to culinary genius, but to the illustrations, which have been chosen partly to amplify the text and partly to show how painters have look at food in the context of their own times. -- From the preface page 5 slight rubbing of the edges of the dust jacket, and age toning of the page edges. Internally clean. This I believe was published simultaneously as a folio Society production and an Australian production Size: 4to 9¾" - 12" tall. Please refer to accompanying picture (s).
