15 Kyoto Gardens.

Poestenkill, NY Kaldewey Press 1998 Quarto. 28pp., frenchfold. One of forty copies. Signed by Gunnar Kaldewey. This book is inspired by the notion of "nature as art." The first text page poetically states: "Books are like gardens that one can carry/around; gardens are like books that one can/experience, promenade through or get lost. . . ." The artist has captured the finest details of nature in his prints of lime and silver, with borders in black. Text printed in orange on transparent, smaller, octavo-sized sheets, which appear intermittently throughout the illustrations. Bound in green Japanese paper over boards, with two little garden stones on the cover surrounded by gold leaf and a clear plastic frame. Housed in a paper chemise and matching slipcase. Small stain to bottom edge of slipcase, else extremely fine.
