Item description from seller

Edition of 2965 of which 300 are signed 1-300, 26 are signed A-Z as artist's proofs, and 3 sets are signed as progressives.April 14, 1983.8 colors 16-3/4" x 24".Influence: Carl Otto Czeschka (Austrian, 1878 - 1960).Client: George Gund III for The San Francisco Film Festival.1-300: Saint Hieronymus Press, Inc. A-Z: artist's own use.Progressives: 1 set to George Gund III, 2 sets to Saint Hieronymus Press, Inc.(Communication Arts 83 Design Annual).The quest for the Holy Grail can be undertaken with any hope of success only by the pure in mind, body and heart. Lancelot, the best knight in the world, was disqualified because of his carnal love for Guenevere. Perceval didn't love anybody or anything, except his own purity. His strength was as the strength of ten because his heart was pure, and whenever he found himself in danger of becoming impure he was saved by some simple act of faith. Fiends burst like sausages all around him as soon as he made the sign of the cross, which he always did just in the nick of time. He was, in fact, too pure for the mundane altogether, and after attaining the object of his quest, passed out of this world without even bothering to die.
