174 pages. "Bill Reid's Spirit of Haida Gwaii is no ordinary sculpture. Commissioned for the courtyard of the new Canadian chancery in Washington, D.C., it sits directly across from the National Gallery and is destined to become one of the major artistic landmarks of the capital and of the North American continent... Ulli Stelzer's photographs, taken over five years, record the genesis and development of the Black Canoe and of each creature within it. This sequence of nearly one hundred images offers detailed insight into the final form and reveals many aspects of the sculpture otherwise lost forever to view." - from dust jacket. Book clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Light wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. Nice copy.
