About This Item
New York: Visionaire 1997, 1997. Limited edition of 3000. Dark blue vinyl case with a pack of large playing cards inside. All inside a white card box. The images on the cards were each designed by individual art directors including Fabien Baron, Mario Testino (who photographed John Galliano as the King of Diamond while Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin photographed Iman as the Queen. The 3,000 issues of Visionaire 21 were packaged in individual jewellery boxes, each with its own lock and key, and offered a real diamond for one lucky subscriber. Sadly no diamond with this one. And this is missing the key but otherwise, this is is a very nice example of Visionaire's stylish and louche work.

About Voewood Rare Books
Simon Finch has been a Rare Book Dealer since 1980. He has had shops in Notting Hill Gate, Mayfair and Holt, Norfolk. His firm has handled a wide variety of material from the First Folio of Shakespeare to the wilder shores of the counterculture and everything in between. In 1998, Simon bought Voewood, one of the finest Arts and Crafts and houses and brought it back to life with an eight-year programme of renovation and restoration. Voewood Rare Books, which operates from Voewood, is the continuation for Simon of a long career in the book trade. It also represents an important link with the House. Voewood is always beautiful, surprising, mysterious and perhaps a little disorientating and we aim to bring something of this spirit to the bookshop. Whilst our focus in on the visual arts, literature and the counter-culture, we deal also in a broad range of antiquarian and modern rare books across all subject areas. Our collection can be found here at Biblio and on our website. We are open by appointment and can always be contacted by email.
