World Without End Portfolio
Product Code: 72675
Jeff Jones was commissioned to create the 5 illustrations presented in this portfolio from 1980.
There are four ink & watercolor pieces reproduced as color plates and one pen & ink piece reproduced in black & white on the envelope.
Four 11" x 14" color plates in an illustrated envelope. The prints show age toning on the blank backside, the frontside--with the color image--looks fine.
Limited edition portfolios were a phenomenon of the 1970s and 80s. They grew out of a greater appreciation of comic and fantasy artists. Middle-Earth lead the way publishing a 1973 portfolio of Frank Frazetta drawings that quickly sold out its 500-copy print run. It was followed by Barry Smith's Tupenny Conan Portfolio in 1974 and another Frazetta portfolio, The Lord of the Rings, in 1975. This lead to a decade of large format, limited edition portfolios: a suite of new illustrations created without restrictions or censorship, with better printing on better paper, reproduced in a large size, to fully appreciate the artwork.
