Overall, a gorgeous edition. // Tom Phillips (1937?2022) was a highly-regarded British painter, printmaker, and polymath whose work fused visual art, literature, and music in erudite, self-referential ways. A Royal Academician and translator of Dante, he is best known for A Humument (1966?2016), a lifelong project transforming W. H. Mallock?s Victorian novel A Human Document into a richly layered visual-textual palimpsest. Phillips?s art, often exploring systems, chance, and the interplay of text and image, spanned painting, collage, opera design, and portraiture?including a celebrated portrait of Iris Murdoch in the National Portrait Gallery?and his influence extended across the British conceptual and book-arts movements of the late twentieth century. // **Heavy item.
