Edition Notes
Photography on translucent paper of outdoor natural formations of caves, separated by sheets of heavy opaque paper.
Issued in a clamshell cloth-covered box (50 x 49 x 5 cm) with a compartment on the inside bottom housing the booklet titled : Chronographia time-line.
Accompanied in the box by a copper photogravure plate (42 x 34 cm) of one of the prints in the portfolio, and covered with an original photogravure on paper.
" ... Caves and other natural features have been associated with the gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon ... The photogravure plates following were made from images taken in Greece in the summer and fall of 2018. They depict a series of caves and their surroundings in an area reaching from the bottom point of the Peloponnese at Tenero to the sheltered bay known to Homer as Skardamoula (now Kardamyli) and up through the gorges Viros and Ridomo to the mountains of Taygetos and the Temple of Artemis."--Unnumbered leaf 3.
"The colophon shows the Greek alphabet in capital letters with each of the twenty-four copies of "Chronographia" assigned a letter from Alpha to Omega."--Booklet.
Rare Book copy: Letter Delta; signed by the artist
