Lumiere Press is pleased to announces the publication of STEICHEN: Eduard et Voulangis, The Early Modernist Period 1915 – 1923.
Over the decades it has been its mission to present original interviews, primary source documentation, thoughtful essays and astutely selected images with elegance and craftsmanship as our contribution to the dialogue on the art of photography and the art of the book.
Eduard et Voulangis is a fitting volume to mark this milestone. With a folio of Steichen masterpieces and newly discovered images published here for the first time, the book is an examination of a key period in the artistic evolution of one of the most important figures in the history of twentieth century art.
The edition has been hand bound in copper-colored Asahi Japanese silk on the spine and fore-edges. A central panel of Canal rag paper, crafted to our specifications at Papeterie Saint-Armand in Montreal, has been printed in gold with a pattern extrapolated by Michael Torosian from a nineteenth-century sketch by Koloman Moser.
Presented in a handmade slipcase wrapped and lined in black Asahi bookcloth. Printed in a numbered edition of 250.
