Nicolas Party 2022 New Print Edition, by titian2021 on Feb 15, 2022 17:06:36 GMT 1, Just been offered one by Phaidon for ยฃ1500. Possibly not selling that well? Too good to turn down for that money though. Have said yes but I guess I will wait to hear back. They always hold a handful back for main release. Bargain imo.
Thanks, think Iโll go for it!

Nicolas Party 2022 New Print Edition, by orchid on Feb 15, 2022 17:10:00 GMT 1, Is it just me, or does that look like it's printed on news print ? Seems to be very thin paper.
It's a handmade paper that tends to lend itself to this type of printing and
'Gampi yields a strong, crisp sheet that is translucent, with almost no visible fibers. These papers have a very smooth surface and a satin-like sheen that becomes even more apparent with the thinner sheets. The skill required to make these virtually flawless sheets is second only to their beauty.
Gampi papers are suitable for restoration, etching, ink, and digital printing, as well as platinum prints.'

This print seems like it'll be an obvious flop for resellers much like the terrible KAWS and J Wood phaidon releases. No one's gonna pay a premium price for B&W.

With smaller scale prints, woodcut, lino or various plating methods work much better than screen printing or photocopier, sorry I mean giclee. Canโt wait to see it in the flesh.

In the meantime I now have an extra signed book so if anyone wants one, let me know. ยฃ60 which I think makes it cheaper than any on eBay.

Congratulations. I think the print is beautiful too. Reminds me a little of Aubrey Beardsley, whose work I love.

Of course to an extent framing is a matter of personal taste (I say only to an extent as I think it is quite acceptable to say some framing is simply bad, even if some people like it). I think the framing option offered for this beautiful print is terrible. It is far too heavy for such a delicate image. That frame detracts from the image; draws your eyes away from it. I would suggest a much more delicate black box frame (at least half the width of the suggested frame) is appropriate (as you have suggested). Regardless, I am envious of anyone who bought one of these prints.

Absolutely agree, needs to be understated, maybe off white or a light oak or ash and floated. IMO

I agree with your framing suggestions above, this reminds me slightly of the type of illustrations done by Aubrey Beardsley. Examples of the framing of his pieces can be seen on the Tate website which would suit this piece also.

Well indeed! If you read my earlier post in this thread you will see that have said that this print also reminds me of Aubrey Beardsley. Great minds...!

I hadn't spotted that @coach. You bet me to it I have one of the Yellow Book issues from 1894 that he had some illustrations in and on the cover. His work is great.

Yes, very beautiful. Iโd love an original yellow book. I had a look a year or so for one, without success then.

It is reassuring to learn there are some Aubrey Beardsley enthusiasts here.
Some of his illustrations remain shocking to this day. They're among the most subversive and radical I've ever seen โ making an image like Banksy's Queen Vic look positively quaint by comparison.

Did you mock those up? If so, I applaud your skills! I think the top one is similar to how many of my pieces are framed. But looking at how those frames suit this particular piece, I think I prefer the bottom one. Just the right level of delicacy.
