Reviews
I bought a copy of the book - number 2451 out of 7000 - in 1991 from the original distributor in Switzerland. The book is well written and very well illustrated, with both B&W and color plates. The only disappointment was Motherwell's original lithograph, a big selling point for the book.Unfortunately, in those pre-Amazon days, one could not see in advance the lithograph, which was nothing more than a bland seven-like squiggle, painted, it seems, as an afterthought .I was going to have it framed, but decided to frame the colorful frontal jacket - an example of Motherwell's work I admire.
