APPLES. 1995

Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1995
5.4 x 4.3cm, 8pp, plus card covers and printed cream dust jacket. Internally there is a text:

“Apples are points in the fields of Eragny”.

The painting “Fields of Eragny” is by the pointilliste Camille Pissarro – an art style that was made up by coloured dots on the canvas that “mixed in the retina” (although in actuality more like the visual cortex). Hence an apple in the painting would be nothing more than a dot due to both the style and the distance the painter was from the tree. VG+.
