A pared-down version of the artist, lacking the profusion of words found in "Parlor Games," and concentrating instead on the illustrative aspect of book design.]]> https://aupieddelalettre.book.fr/galeries/boites/chd-6550 https://aupieddelalettre.book.fr photo-id:5070149 Mon, 03 Jan 2011 00:15:27 +0000
