Aggiungi al carrelloHUTTON, Clarke (illustratore). First Edition. First edition of this charming autolithographed children's book. English artist and illustrator, Stanley Clarke Hutton (1898 - 1984) studied and taught lithography lithography Central School of Arts and Crafts in London. Between 1945 and 1962, Hutton illustrated many books for children including picture histories of Britain, France, Canada, Italy, Australia, America, Russia and India. Hutton's books are marvellously redolent of the period and have considerable visual and nostalgic impact as well as being fascinating sociologically for their view of the history of the various subjects. All illustrations are drawn directly onto the plate by Hutton. Each of Hutton's books is written by a different author. The text for one of Hutton's rarer works, "A Picture History of Great Discoveries", is by Mabel E.George. Small folio, boudn in original illustrated linen-backed boards, illustrated throughout in colour lithographs on every page, a very good bright copy.

The Limited Editions Club signed limited edition of two of George Bernard Shaw's classic plays. Quarto, bound in full modern morocco by Sangorski & Sutcliffe with gilt titles to the spine, all edges gilt, gilt inner dentelles, marbled endpapers, title page vignette, illustrated throughout. Boldly signed by illustrator Clarke Hutton on the colophon page at the rear. One of 2,000 numbered copies, this is number 1731. In near fine condition. Introduction by Alan Strachan. Illustrated by Clarke Hutton. In ancient Greek mythology, Pygmalion fell in love with one of his sculptures, which then came to life. The general idea of that myth was a popular subject for Victorian era English playwrights, including one of Shaw's influences, W. S. Gilbert, who wrote a successful play based on the story called Pygmalion and Galatea that was first presented in 1871. Shaw's play has been adapted numerous times, most notably as the musical My Fair Lady and its film version. My Fair Lady is a musical based on George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, with book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe. The story concerns Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl who takes speech lessons from professor Henry Higgins, a phoneticist, so that she may pass as a lady. The original Broadway and London shows starred Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews. The musical's 1956 Broadway production was a notable critical and popular success. It set a record for the longest run of any show on Broadway up to that time. It was followed by a hit London production, a popular film version, and numerous revivals. My Fair Lady has frequently been called "the perfect musical". It was the basis for the 1964 Geoge Cukor directed film starring Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison as Eliza Doolittle and Henry Higgins respectively, with Stanley Holloway, Gladys Cooper and Wilfrid Hyde-White in supporting roles. A critical and commercial success, it won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director. In 1998, the American Film Institute named it the 91st greatest American film of all time.
