Epstein, Jacob. Epstein: An Autobiography.
London: Hutton Press, 1955, revised and extended edition, signed by Epstein on fly leaf, limitation __ of 195 copies. 4to: [x] 294 pp. Full green leather, gilt lettered spine, a few soft impressions and rubbed extremities, contains a tipped-in photocopy of his watercolor painting 'Lilies' [Absent original collotype reproduction], text interspersed with 95 black and white illustrations. Very good.
No more appropriate observation could be made about this book than the one implied in Epstein’s own statement: “Surely the best communication of the sculptor or the painter is through his work and in no other manner.”
