About the Item

Gullivers Reise is an original modern rare book written by Jonathan Swift (Dublin, 1667 – Dublin, 1745) and illustrated by Lovis Corinth (21 July 1858 – 17 July 1925) in 1922. Published by Propylaeen, Berlin. Original First Edition. 400 numbered and signed copies. Format: in Folio. The book includes 77 pages with 25 lithographs (several full page). Cover and binding are realized by Hugo Steiner-Prag. Mint conditions. Lovis Corinth (21 July 1858 – 17 July 1925). Corinth was a German artist and writer whose mature work as a painter and printmaker realized a synthesis of impressionism and expressionism. Corinth studied in Paris and Munich, joined the Berlin Secession group, later succeeding Max Liebermann as the group's president. His early work was naturalistic in approach. Corinth was initially antagonistic towards the expressionist movement, but after a stroke in 1911 his style loosened and took on many expressionistic qualities. His use of color became more vibrant, and he created portraits and landscapes of extraordinary vitality and power. Corinth's subject matter also included nudes and biblical scenes. Jonathan Swift, pseudonym Isaac Bickerstaff, (Dublin, 1667 – Dublin, 1745) was an Anglo-Irish author, who was the foremost prose satirist in the English language. Besides the celebrated novel Gulliver’s Travels (1726), he wrote such shorter works as A Tale of a Tub (1704) and “A Modest Proposal” (1729).
