Description

Birds & Words is a vintage collection of 60 illustrations of birds and 60 humorous stories about each one.

This book is a lovely reissue of the charming and highly collectible 1972 classic by Charley Harper. Written and illustrated by the renowned illustrator.

Harper's style has been referred to as "minimal realism."* Charley Harper was a prolific mid-century modern artist based in Cincinnati, Ohio. * Each bird was hand-painted in Harper's signature style. * Birds & Words brings together the beloved illustrator's gifts as both an artist and a writer. Charley Harper has illustrated numerous books, including the notable The Golden Book of Biology. This new version of this vintage gem features a cloth-bound cover with a tipped in image alongside the original vintage typography. * A great book for fans of mid-century modern aesthetics, and for designers, bird lovers, minimal art, and those who adore all things Charley Harper* Giftable to a wide age range-from children to retirees, Charley Harper's charming illustrations and sweet stories appeal to all. * Add it to the collection of books like Charley Harper: An Illustrated Life by Todd Oldham and Charley Harper and Smithsonian Handbooks: Birds of North America by Fred J.
