Item description from seller

Sextodecimo [16.5 cm] Accordion-folding artist's book composed of red cloth boards with printed paper cover label and folding color lithographic interior. With the artist's symbols printed on a folded sheet at the front. The symbols are translated in French and English. Panels are a bit concave. In the lucite slipcase with surface wear. Adapted from the fairy tale by Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm. A bright and colorful visual reinterpretation of the Little Red Riding Hood by the noted Swiss artist. Swiss-born Warja Lavater moved to New York City in 1958, where she began designing scientific illustrations for Dell Publishing Visual series. It was at this time that Honegger-Lavater came under the influence of American street advertising and began using pictograms as graphic representations of linguistic elements in her works.
