    Description

    First Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding

    In the publisher's original pictorial cloth binding.

    Alan Davie (1920–2014) was a prolific Scottish painter and musician renowned for his intuitive, symbol-laden abstraction informed by myths, multiple cultural traditions, and jazz improvisation.
