Four Quartets


T. S. Eliot. Rampant Lions Press. Cambridge. 1996.

Dimensions: 15” x 10 5/8” x 2 1/4”.

Bound: 2023.

Deep teal blue goatskin binding with onlays of leather, aluminum and painted paper/mylar lamination; gold and painted tooling. Painted paper edge-to-edge pastedowns and flyleaves. 

The text is not illustrated graphically. The binding is a visual interpretation of the idea that what begins will eventually come back to the same place… but differently. Eliot’s four interconnected poems in Four Quartets explore this concept.
