Part of Ezra Pound & Art

From the library of A. David Moody

“When Ezra Pound encountered Henri Gaudier-Brzeska for the first time in 1913, he was immediately impressed and likened the young Frenchman to ‘a well-made young wolf or some soft-moving, bright eyed wild thing.’”

Published on the occasion of the Wild Thing exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, 24 Oct 2009 - 24 Jan 2010. Cork’s study on the three sculptors, illustrated throughout. With the original Gallery Guide for the exhibition laid-in. A bit of trouble to the bottom right corner for the first two pages, otherwise fine.
