CHAGALL by Ingo F. Walther TASCHEN - Leather Covered Hardback Coffee Table Book

Description: This is my book. I can make one for you, conditioned I can find an edition of the book.This is the original, large size, of Taschen's Basic Art series from the 1990s. The book is second hand and there might be signs of usage. I will make a cover for every title in this series, as I find the original books. It is a beautiful book for your coffee table.With his enchanting roster of musicans, roosters, flowers, and floating lovers, Marc Chagall is celebrated to this day as one of the most readily identifiable modern masters and one of the most influential Jewish artists of all time. This dependable artist introduction explores the dreams, tales, colors, and cultural traditions that made up Chagall’s rich and intricate tapestry.The book is a soft cover which I recycle and transform into a limited edition, personalized hardback with leather cover, designed and made by me. First, I prepare the book by embedding cotton cords into the spine. Adding 2 mm wood boards to the front and back. And reinforcing everything with cloth. To make the cover I use grade A, naturally tanned hide, I buy from a tannery in north Spain. It is the same leather Louis Vuitton uses to make his bags, so it is top quality. I do all the processing of the leather myself. First, I design the cover, and what I did here, for the front, and back, I used Chagal's paintings. Next, I mix leather inks and screen them on the surface of the leather. The inks are partly absorbed by the skin to create a permanent bond. Finally, I coat the leather with protective solution. The leather gives the image a vintage look and beautiful texture, and it will age nicely with time. Inside the front cover. I can print a personal message or a quote from the book.The book is beautiful. Visually it has a very nice texture, it smells great, and the more you handle it the more beautiful it will become. And it makes a great gift for yourself, or somebody who appreciates books. So if you want one, don’t snooze, or you might lose.Book - CHAGALL by Ingo F.
