Visoes Das filhas de Albion (Visions of the Daughters of Albion)

Natal, Brazil: Sol Negro Edicoes, 2012. Limited First Edition Thus. Sewn Wrappers. "Enslav'd, the Daughters of Albion weep: a/ trembling lamentation/ Upon their mountains; in their valleys. sighs/ toward America." (pg. 8) The canonical poem of 1793 by William Blake, the inspired & inspiring British poet-painter-printer, presented here in a bilingual edition, with original English text opposite Portugese translation by Marcio Simoes. An exquisite production in Blake-illustrated attached over-wraps with flaps, sewn binding. As noted in (Portugese language) colophon, this is one of 40 stamp-numbered copies produced during August of 2012, this is copy No. 2/40. Look for a delightful parody of the ubiquitous bar code on back cover. A very rare & beautiful version of this Blake classic. In very fine condition with only very slight rubbing to front, back covers & spine; a bit of wear & a few tiny bumps at edges & corners of same; several short, very faint creases at lower area of front cover. Interior very fine with only miniscule bumps at lower corners of a few page leaves. Very Fine. [Item #3873]
