Krátky popis
The middle decades of the twentieth century saw an extraordinary
flourishing of the illustrated, pictorial dust jacket. From the
1920s, as the potential for the book’s protective wrapping to be
used for promotion and enticement became clear, artists and
illustrators on both sides of the Atlantic applied their talents to
this particular art form. Rising to the wide-ranging challenges
posed by format and subject matter, leading artists and
illustrators, including John Piper, Edward Bawden and John Minton
in the UK and Ben Shahn, Edward Gorey and George Salter in the USA,
brought their unique personal vision to bear on the world of books.
Many of their designs reflect the changing visual styles and motifs
of the period, including Bloomsbury, Art Deco, Modernism, postwar
neo-romanticism and the Kitchen Sink School.&,nbsp,Martin
Salisbury has selected over fifty of the artists and illustrators
who were active in the period 1920–1970 in the UK and USA, as well
as others such as Tove Jansson and Celestino Piatti, and discusses
their life and work. A selection of dust jackets – both known and
too long forgotten – for each artist reveals how far the book as an
artefact had travelled from the days of the plain wrapper in the
nineteenth century.Table of ContentsIntroduction • Profiles of over
