Rime.
[Canmore, Alberta, Canada: ]: Dea Fischer], Unique artist's book. The pages evoke a winter tree-line with a density of frost-rimed branches. The paper itself replicates the effect of an ice halo, and a single dot of red strikes the reader as a lone winterberry in deepest midwinter. Sheer parchment. Drawings of branches in white, translucent, and with one drop of red oil paint. A fine copy. Leporello binding, with double-sided accordion-style pages. Signed and dated by the artist on the rear cover. 5 1/8 x 7 3/4.". Unpaginated. Item #18005
