Set in Cambria and printed in photo-lithography on Fedrigoni Materica Gesso 250gsm. Printed glassine limitation leaf, hand numbered. The box measures 23.5 x 17cm and is sealed with a printed glassine wraparound band. A fine copy. Issued in an edition of 150 copies, this example is number 8 of just 12 'deluxe' editions issued with one of the drawings hand-tinted by Jake Attree. Signed by the poet and the artist in black ink on the title page. Renowned artist Jake Attree and Elmet Prize winning poet Robert Powell have created this enchanting 'small box' of poems and drawings inspired by a series of walks along the Rivers Ouse and Foss in York. The resulting creation explores the relationship with the visual and the written word, the connections and differences between a book and a work of art, and the boundaries between a series of words and a series of drawings.
