Voyages de Gulliver

by Jonathan Swift


A lovely edition, in French, of this great classic of English literature. Number 46 of a special print run of 250, with original etchings.  A beautiful book, turned into a lovely keepsake. This book was auctioned at a charity event.  Nice to know that my work has ended up helping people.
A classic binding for a classic book. Sometimes less is more.
The beautiful paper is made by amazing French paper artist Claire Guillot. She specialises in hand painting papers for find bindings.
A great view of the beautiful handmade paper
You can see that this is a very special edition.
One of the lovely illustrations.
I love making headbands!
Photographs by Nikolaus van der Pas
Gilding by  Patrick Prouteau, Paris
