Winter Orchard

By Carl Dern
Designed and letterpress printed by Marie C. Dern
Edition of 60
2005

$1,200

Nine-panel, two-sided accordion book featuring 18 drawings of trees in winter, printed letterpress on Arches watercolor paper. Bound by hand with a movable accordion so that "the reader" can arrange the trees in different configurations – an orchard, a forest, a single tree. Each book is accompanied with a metal sculpture of a tree. The sculpture can be placed within the printed orchard. The book and the tree are wrapped in hand-made snowflake paper from Japan. They are nestled in an orchard crate, handmade of sawn pine.
