Description: THE ULTIMATE ALPHABET by Mike Wilks Softcover, Excellent Condition THE ULTIMATE ALPHABET by Mike Wilks, softcover, 12½" x 9½", 64 pages, 1986, Henry Holt & Co, ISBN: 978-0805025163, Excellent condition, first 10 pages have minor humidity damage on 4" of right side, Amazon price $12.95 used. From the back cover: "In this definitive alphabet book the artist Mike Wilks rakes us on a magical journey through the English language. The 26 unforgettable paintings illustrate a multitude of objects beginning with the relevant letter—there are 8,050 depicted! Some are easy to spot, some are more elusive and esoteric, the result of painstaking research as the artist buried himself reading several multi-volume dictionaries and encyclopedias cover to cover. A minutely observed dream world is revealed in increasing detail each time the pictures are examined. The use of different symbols and layers of meaning is complemented by the classic technique of using up to twenty transparent glazes, giving rare vividness and vitality to these haunting images."
