Description: | Stunning hardcover edition, reproduced from 1910 original, offers the print equivalent of a medieval manuscript: sumptuously hand-lettered text, decorative borders, illuminated scripts, and numerous marginal illustrations plus 20 full-page color plates. This stunning edition reproduces Coleridge''s epic poem from a highly original version created in 1910 by Willy Pogány. The Hungarian-born artist''s interpretation of the strange and gripping tale, told by the sole survivor of a cursed voyage, constitutes a wondrously dramatic marriage of words and images. Pogány''s vision offers the print equivalent of a medieval manuscript, rich in sumptuously hand-lettered text, decorative borders, illuminated scripts, and numerous marginal illustrations as well as 20 full-page color plates. This edition of the rare volume also includes an unabridged, easy-to-read version of the poem in standard type. |
