About the Item

BOMBERG, David. Russian Ballet. With 6 original color lithographs by David Bomberg. London; Hendersons. [The Bomb Shop] 1919. 8 3/8 x 10 1⁄2 Inches, 8 loose sheets, only the half title page being folded. Boxed. Superb example of Bomberg’s “contructive-geometric” style. The tightly composed abstract drawings seem to have been executed before the war and lithographed at the time Diaghilev’s ballet came to London. Bomberg printed the lithographs and poem himself. One of the finest examples of a Vorticist Publication.
