ArtPlantae Books has the opportunity to sell the catalog to “Botanical Art Into the Third Millenium“, an exhibition now on view in Pisa, Italy. Before it decides to bring this catalog to North America, it needs to determine if there is interest in this title beyond those who have already expressed an interest. The sales price will be $45 plus USPS Standard Shipping.
Please take a moment to respond to a quick survey.
How many pages? How many images? Paperback or hard cover? I would need a more detailed description of the book to make a decision.
All good questions. The catalog is paperback, has 244 pages and illustrations. The description I have doesn’t assign a number to illustrations. I will confirm the number with the publisher. The exhibition features over 150 pieces of art, including work by Margaret Stones, Rory McEwen and Margaret Mee, as well as art from the Shirley Sherwood Collection. It is 20 cm x 26.5 cm (about 7.9″ x 10.4″). Here is the table of contents (in Italian) – http://edizioniets.com/Priv_File_Libro/2029.pdf
A reader who has the catalog flipped through it and counted “roughly about 155 illustrations in full color – there are a few plates that are botanical in nature but not strictly botanical art or illustration.”
The publisher has sent this information:
“Pages 1-69 present the collection and the exhibition. They contain about 12 illustrated pages. Pages 70-235 are the catalogue. The catalogue is divided in 5 sections. Each section has a 2 page presentation (1 page in Italian, 1 page in English). Thus, out of 165 pages, 10 of them are text only, 155 are full-page illustrations. Pages 236-243 are index pages. The book is 20×26,5 cm (7.9″x10.5″).”
