Small 4°, 141 pp. with black and white illustrations, original red cloth decoration with ornaments and lettering, original patterned endpapers (old signature on the top of the frond loose endpaper, otherwise in a good condition). A fine example of an illustrated selection of poetry by a popular Slovenian poet Simon Gregorcic (1844 1906) with wonderful art nouveau illustrations by a painter Maks Kozelj was published two years after the poet s death and includes his biography and facsimiles of his handwriting. Gregorcic is today considered one of the greatest Slovenian poets. The illustrator Maks Kozelj (1883-1956) was a popular Slovenian painter, schooled in Vienna, Munich and Prague. He is mostly known for his oil paintings and frescoes. The illustrations in this collection of poetry reflect the popular central European tendencies of book illustration. The book is signed by the priest M. Umek, possibly a Styrian priest and a dean Mihael Umek (1886 1966). References: OCLC 251014123. Codice articolo 69711
