Title

The Iliad and the Odyssey.

Publication, distribution, etc.

[Stroud, Gloucestershire :, Paul Thomas,, 2005].

Physical description

2v.

Note

Illustrations to the Iliad and the Odyssey. The first publication in 2002 was titled the Trojan War. Paul Thomas did not, for this publication, have full control over the printing process and the end result was poor tone contrast in the dramatic black and white prints. In 2006, following the creation of a further 80 drawings for the Odyssey, a new publication was made (25 copies) combining, in one bound edition, two volumes, the Iliad and Odyssey illustrations. Paul Thomas, for this, decided to do the whole printing process himself at his studio in Stroud, Gloucestershire.

Note

The Odyssey has 80 plates; the Iliad 68. Includes an index to the plates.

Note

Paper is Fabriano 300 gm hot pressed.

Note

The Eton copy is the first of the 25 copies produced.
