Description: JERICHO: THE SOUTH BEHELD ~ BY: HUBERT SHUPTRINE (ART PRINT BOOK) NUMBERED EDITION = 32,702 OF 150,000 ~ NO DUST JACKETWITH 'LATE AFTERNOON' PRINT - OXMOOR HOUSE - Item Description & Noted Condition ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a VINTAGE, PRE-OWNED BOOK in GREAT CONDITION with NO DUST JACKET, THAT IS INDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALSO INCLUDED IS A PRINT TITLED: "LATE AFTERNOON" by HUBERT SHUPTRINE Though in the form of a book, this is an Excellent Opportunity to acquire Limited Edition Artwork and Poetry that is suitable for framing. Both the Written Poetry and Reproduced Illustrations throughout this piece are worthy of being taken beyond the pages they are confined to, but the Limited Edition Nature of the work stalls most from doing that. In the case of THIS Auction, the piece is LESS THAN PERFECT as a Coffee Table Art Book, or Discussion piece, but is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT for being repurposed as Framed Art. With Regards to Wear/Aging: - Wear is Minimal on the MAJORITY of the Book, but there are exceptions. - Binding is Tight Throughout - Colors are Strong and Vibrant - DustJacket is NOT present. - There is a degree of wear/fray on the bottom backside of the spine. - Page Edges have a Light Yellowing ... maybe on purpose? - I think I found 3 'Coffee Drips' (???) in the foreword. They were only slight distractions, and did not take away from the beauty of the book. - Scents MAY be present, but are subtle if there. *With a Giant Stack of Books from Various Sources, it is hard to say if a specific one has a scent, ... unless it knocks you down! This one does NOT. - Any other flaws should be seen in pics, and I do respond to questions. FROM THE INTERNET: "In this unique, mysterious and beautiful book, two Southerners turn their talents on their land and their people. One is a painter and the other is a poet. The painter, Hubert Shuptrine, and the poet, James Dickey, each went his own way into the South, Shuptrine visually a d Dickey by a strange verbal process of his own. No attempt is made to have the paintings and text coincide. The paintings should be looked at for themselves and the prose passages should be read for themselves. The purpose was to capture the South from the standpoint of two artists an deeply sentient human beings, and to record in a big book what both experienced, independently and yet with a kinship that can come only from gifted men in a kind of creative brotherhood. Shuptrine's images will enter into the consciousness of the viewer very quickly and will stay. Dickey's prose-poems will do the same from a different angle. He asks nothing more or less than that the reader become pure spirit. He endows him with the power to fly, to hover with the hummingbird and slide along the wind with the gull, to circle like a buzzard and swarm like a gnat. He asks the reader - maybe you - to give up your body for the space of reading this book, and to enter into the veer of the land and rivers, to zigzag over the landscape of people, to investigate the trembling of the web of custom and family. For his land, Dickey chooses the emblem of Jericho, the first city of the Promised Land: the city that fell to Joshua. Dickey asks nothing of history, nothing of Biblical accuracy, nothing but what may be given the poet for his needs: first, that there was a Promised Land, and, second, that it was named Jericho. It is the South, in Shuptrine's sensitive paintings and Dickey's strange, perhaps unforgettable, prose. Two artists, then. Two deep views of Jericho, that will not come - or come together - again."
