Books by Erik Desmazieres

This book is a tribute by a leading contemporary graphic artist to his intaglio printer. While Rene Taze made the prints, Erik Desmazieres began to draw his surroundings, of which he was much inspired. Text in English and French.

Erik Desmazieres is acknowledged as a contemporary master of the art of etching. This book locates Desmazieres and his work in the long tradition of artist-printmakers, surveys the world of 17th-century antiquarianism and its intriguing cast of characters; and examines today's reawakened interest in cabinets of rarities and curiosities.
