About This Item

Octavo 16.5x10cm., original wrappers, 64pp. First and only edition. Cover design and twelve drawings by Lajos Gulácsy. Arthur Keleti (Artur Rosenburg, 1889-1969) was a Hungarian poet and translator; he was also a master bookmaker. In 1912 he met Lajos Gulácsy who encouraged him to publish his first book of poetry after which they went to Italy. This trip had a major impact for both of them in their work. Keleti went on to release poetry, plays and operas, and his books are often collaborative with artists in bibliophile editions. Gulácsy (1882-1932) was a unique Pre-Raphaelite and Symbolist visionary and an important part of Hungarian Secessionism whose late works point to surrealism. He had a nervous breakdown in the First World War which led to mental illness and was confined to institutions after 1919. Uncommon, with copies of this work rarely on the market. Institutional holdings in UTL, UCB, BL worldwide.
