SKOCZYLAS Władysław - Folk woodcut in Poland. Warsaw [1933]. J. Mortkowicz. 4, pp. [4], 13, [3], XI, plates 99 [including 34 reflections from old woodblocks]. Bound in period gilt.
Back pastedown cracked at spine, paper slightly yellowed, otherwise good condition. Modest ownership stamp on front pastedown. Tables 77-80 rearranged. An exquisitely produced album of likenesses of old Polish folk woodcuts - the fruit of many years of search and research. Bibliography on the last page. Illustrative material, preceded by an introduction on techniques and artists, arranged thematically (images of N. P. Mary, saints of the Lord, images of Christ, compositions, secular woodcuts). A French-language version of the album was also published. Infrequent.
