Men of Letters and People of Substance Paperback - 2007

by Roberto De Vicq de Cumptich


From the publisher

Portraits of literary heroes using designs of type, ornaments, common linecuts. The author also combines type ornaments and icons to suggest a face with singular attributes: pride, fear, fanaticism, and surprise. But these are not drawings; they are images arranged from the combination of specific and discrete graphic forms.
Printed throughout in two colors, often displaying the various letters, sorts and ornaments that make up the whole, this is wholly original, totally inventive. In these typographic assemblies transformed into ingenious portraits, de Vicq has given the alphabet a whole new life.
