One of a six part collection engraved for Tartarus Press, for their M R James Collection. The first editions of the book sold out in under two weeks!
This engraving is inspired by the brilliant 'A warning to the curious' another of 'James' stories centred on the coast of Suffolk. The plundering of a tumuli, which threatens the very survival of the old Kingdoms of the East Angles from foreign invaders, above the coastal town of Seaburgh (or the beautiful Aldeburgh as we know it) leads to one of the last the guardians of the treasure to return from the grave.
The print is in an edition of 50 - Tartarus included the first 30 of the edition in each of the first 30 of the books. Therefore is only another 20 available to purchase. There is a reduction in price if all six of the collection are bought together.
It is hand printed on my 1849 Albion Printing Press on some of the last stocks of Zerkall hand made paper directly from the boxwood block. And measures 180mm x 110mm.
