[Eric Gill] -
Gill, Eric
Art & Love
Gill, Eric: Art & Love. Bristol: Douglas Cleverdon, 1927. 26 pages with six etchings. Number 247 of 260 copies. Signed 'Eric Gill T.S.D.' in pencil on the colophon. Original black buckram, gilt-lettered spine, deckle edged. Printed by Robert Gibbings at the Golden Cockerel Press. Buckram. 20x12cms. Gill first published his reflection on art and Christianity in the journal, Blackfriars: A Monthly Review Edited by the English Dominicans in October 1924. An author's note in the present volume reveals that this reprint allowed for an expansion of Gill's theories which 'were formerly excluded in deference to puritan prejudice by editorial prudence.' He clarifies that these changes included the addition of section five, 'Clothes and Nakedness'. Long involved in the reintegration of craft (i.e. humanity) and industry, Gill's conversion to Catholicism in 1913 introduced a strictly spiritual approach to both his art and writings. In the present volume, Gill explored the act of creation as an act of love and worship. The volume includes six engravings which are exceptional examples of Gill's proficiency in the medium. Four engravings are explicitly religious, including a crucifixion and the inclusion of the hand of God.One print, For dignity and adornment, juxtaposes a 'pre-industrial' couple with a flapper and a tuxedoed man. The work accompanies Gill's criticism of contemporary fashion, 'The clothes of to-day clearly show that man has forgotten his dignity and he has forgotten his dignity because he has forgotten his Love.'.
