David Hockney- Six Fairy Tales- Brothers Grimm - 

Signed and dedicated by David Hockney  

First edition, first printing. Small hardback, bound in the original blue leather with silver titling to upper board. 11 × 7.5cm, unpaginated. David Hockney's interpretation of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. Although inspired by earlier illustrators of the tales, from Arthur Rackham to Edmund Dulac, Hockney's extraordinary etchings re-imagine these strange and supernatural stories for a modern audience, capturing their distinctive atmosphere in a style that is recognisably the artist's own. Hockney's book brings together some well-known tales - Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin - with others that are less familiar. Condition: This copy is in very good condition
