1: The Solar Eclipse of July 8th, 1842 (Die Sonnenfinsternis am 8. Juli 1842) by Adalbert Stifter.
Translated from German by Kristofer Minta.
Hand set letterpress printed pamphlet. Sewn and bound by hand, in a letterpress printed dust jacket.
“It was no different than if God had spoken a clear word, and I had understood it.” Adalbert Stifter, legend of German letters, stood on a rooftop in Vienna one morning in 1842 and was transported to another world. He and all who witnessed the total solar eclipse that day were moved in ways perhaps unavailable to moderns — orphaned on the other side of the scientific and industrial revolutions underway in Stifter’s time. The Solar Eclipse of July 8th, 1842 may revive for us some necessary dread and humility before the sheer scale of nature, but can also serve to reconnect us with our forebears, whose hearts and minds, after all, were just as our own.
2: Work on paper by Jon Beacham combining color darkroom C-Print and letterpress.
