CAULFIELD, Patrick (1936-2005, illustrator) and Jules LAFORGUE (1860-1887). Some Poems of Jules Laforgue. [London]: Petersburg Press, [1973].

Limited edition, number 96 from the English Edition A of 200 copies, signed by the artist on the justification and on the verso of the six accompanying screenprints. ‘I tried to imagine what Laforgue might have been looking at when he thought of the poems, knowing, of course, that certain of the images are totally of another period to Laforgue’s lifetime: poetic licence with poetic licence’ (Caulfield, quoted in The Poems of Jules Laforgue, p.9 [1995]). In this English Edition A, there were also 20 artist proofs.

Folio (402 x 352mm). The complete set of 22 bound screenprints, on Neobond paper, signed, numbered and inscribed ‘Edition A’ in pencil on the justification, together with the accompanying six loose screenprints in colours, stamped, signed and numbered on verso. Original blue-grey leatherette covers and slipcase (slipcase lightly scuffed and marked, slightly faded). Provenance: from the library of Sir Colin St John Wilson and M.J. Long.
