"Timon of Athens" is a modern illustrated adaptation of
Shakespeare's seldom performed and probably incomplete play. The
title character of which becomes misanthropic when the community
fails to appreciate his generosity. Wyndam Lewis's original
cubo-futurist designs form the basis for the style that came to be
known as Vorticism. Designed and printed by Charles D. Jones on
Johannot paper by d'Arches. It is 13 in by 9 1/2 in. and has
printed end sheets of blue Bugra Hahnemuhle paper. It was printed
by hand from polymer plates with 6 color plates and over 30 black
and white plates from original designs by Wyndham Lewis created
circa. 1912 for use in a proposed edition of Timon that ultimately
was produced as a portfolio of plates without the text by the Cube
Press in 1912. Working with Omar Pound, an expert on Lewis and
controller of rights to his estate, and using my own understanding
of Lewis' work, I have attempted to create the work that he would
have done. It is bound on boards with a clamshell box covered with
Italian Linen book cloth.
