Introducing a fine, limited - edition book published and designed by Izzy Pludwinski,
set in his new lyrical Hebrew typeface "Shir", illustrated with the powerful
linocuts of Mordechai Beck. The edition is presented in a silk-screened pinewood box which includes the main Hebrew volume, hard cover, bound with a handmade paper made especially for this book (and containing some of the spices mentioned in the Song), and a translation volume, soft cover, set in Herman Zapf's elegant "Zapfino" typeface. The book makes for an excellent wedding or anniversary gift. It had been purchased by book collectors, lovers of letters and the Hebrew script, as well as by prestigous museums and libraries, including the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA).) |
