Footnotes
A posthumous publication on which John Buckland Wright had been working for twenty years. Originally planned to be the third publication by the artist's own imprint (J.B.W. Editions) the text was printed by Mouton & Co. of the Hague in 1936, but due to his being not satisfied with the illustrations the work was not issued at this time. Fifty copies of the text were printed, but only 25 copies were ever bound and issued.
