Description
Modern Western calligraphy has seldom been recognized as an art form. Correcting this oversight, Jerry Kelly presents major examples of calligraphic art by over 80 artists spanning the years 1906-2016. He demonstrates that in the computer age, the art of beautiful writing not only lives but thrives. The catalogue accompanied the eponymous Grolier Club. With a preface by Jerry Kelly and an introduction by Christopher Calderhead.
