Description: Amsterdam, Van Zoetendaal, 2011. 24 x 34 cm. 50 pp. Paperback with dustwrapper. Illustrated in b/w throughout. - Printed in an edition of 750 copies, numbered and signed by Harold Strak. Text in English. - Whoever reads this book probably has to do a double take to each of the pictures. Even though, their beauty and appeal is obvious; their subject matter is not. Upon taking a closer look, it becomes clear that what is shown on these intricate black-and-white pictures are in fact dead organisms. From moths to flies to other unrecognizable creatures. 'A chemical and optical miracle thus reveils the marvellous world of countless arthropods. In that sense Harold Strak's work is a highly personal, modern-day sequel to The Pencil of Nature by William Henry Fox Talbot [...]' [Flip Bool - Harold's Pencil of Nature]. - New copy
