 by Ugo Mochi and T. Donald Carter. Charles Scribner’s & Sons, 1953. First edition. Signed by Mochi. Format: 12” x 15 ¼”. Unpaginated. Decorated cover. No D.J. as issued. Condition: Fine. 40 plates in silhouette of animals. Mochi’s work needs to be seen to completely appreciate it. He cut his silhouettes with a knife resembling a scalpel, and the anatomical accuracy is amazing. Each silhouette, no matter how complicated, is cut from one piece of paper with no breaks in continuity. |
