EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print commemorates the 11th anniversary of the esteemed Golden Cockerel Press, a renowned English fine press active between 1920 and 1961. Known for producing handmade limited editions of classic works, the press was dedicated to preserving the art of traditional bookmaking. The image features the talented designer and illustrator, Eric Ravilious, who created this stunning poster in 1932. The Golden Cockerel Press was renowned for its meticulous attention to detail, with each book being a work of art in itself. The type was painstakingly hand-set, and the pages were printed on handmade paper or even vellum, ensuring a unique and tactile reading experience. Ravilious' design for the 11th anniversary poster is a testament to the Press' commitment to artistic excellence. The image of a rooster, the Press' namesake, is depicted in intricate detail, with its fiery red comb and wattles standing out against the muted background. The use of bold, contrasting colors and clean lines adds to the overall impact of the poster. As a private press, the Golden Cockerel Press operated outside of the commercial publishing industry, allowing it to focus on producing high-quality, collectible editions of literary works. This print is a reminder of the Press' significant contribution to the world of fine bookmaking and the enduring legacy of Eric Ravilious' design.
