Product description

Richard Baker's artwork celebrates the cherished and well-loved books in every bibliophile's collection. His remarkable paintings capture the essence of vintage paperback books, highlighting their frayed edges and softened covers. These "book portraits" feature titles by some of the most iconic writers of the modern era, including Emily Dickinson, Mark Twain, George Orwell, and Susan Sontag.

Based in Brooklyn, still-life painter Richard Baker began his artistic journey by painting dog-eared copies of vintage paperbacks. He scours used bookstores to find these appropriately careworn paperbacks and immortalizes them in his 12-by-10.5-inch gouache portraits. His focus is on everyday, well-read companions rather than precious first editions or rare items. Baker's work captures the unique beauty found in these beloved and well-worn books, making them truly special to book enthusiasts.

12 notecards and envelopes.
