GOETHE (Johann Wolfgang von) &
DOVES PRESS
Torquato Tasso. Ein Schauspiel von Goethe.
FABULOUSLY BOUND BY OTTO HERFURTH
Very good, spine faded, covers very slightly scuffed.
A fabulous binding by Otto Herfurth, who operated the Daphnis bindery in Berlin. The binding achieves a sense of both restraint and opulence, marrying the intricacy of early 20th century German design with the studied elegance of the Doves Press with remarkable success.
