IF. Calligraphic manuscript.
<p>No place no date. Circa 1930's. Hand written calligraphic manuscript on off-white card in red and black ink with blue yellow brown and gold painted border and initial title. The sheet measures 11.6 x 8.9 inches. Marks on the rear where this was probably mounted previously but the front panel is clean and free of any damage. Unsigned and no clue to the calligrapher. A very attractive presentation. ------ A poll taken by the BBC in the UK in 2005 voted it as Britain's favourite Poem poling twice as many votes as the number 2 choice Lord Tennyson's The Lady of Shallot. Originally written in 1895 IF was inspired by the actions of Dr. Leander Starr Jameson a British Officer whose forces were defeated by the Boers in 1895 but who was portrayed as a victorious hero by the British press the poem is a powerful masterclass in maintaining the British stiff upper lip.</p> No place, no date. Circa 1930's unknown

Restoration of the paper cover through the fold with the original clips saved. Restoration of the upper corner on the front side of the cover. A minor tear about 1.5 cm closer to the spine on the back side. </p><p>Clean private-held copy part of the collection.<br /></p><p>The author of the poems is Joseph Rudyard Kipling 1865-1936. The poems included in this book were originally published in 1902 as parts of "Just So Stories" where each story ended with a short poem by the author. The collection also included the famous poem "When the cabin port-holes are dark and green" known in Russia under the title "40 Nord-50 West" and which gave the name to this book. It's a curious fact that Marshak changed the geographical position eventually as the original poem says "Fifty North and Forty West" however Russian translation delivers "40 Nord and 50 West".</p><p>Despite the imperialistic views of Kipling which were pretty contrary to the general Soviet ideology his publications were actively printed by the new Soviet authorities so the best writers and artists were involved to work on Kipling's books.</p><p>David Petrovich Shterenberg 1881 - 1948 - Soviet painter illustrator. Shterenberg left Russia to Paris in 1907 as a political émigré. The earliest of his works are dated 1908 i.e. "Flowers and gypsum". Shterenberg was welcomed by the artistic circle of Paris and critics spoke in a positive way about him. David Shterenberg took part in exhibitions at the Autumn Salon of 1912 together with a list of masters like Matisse Valadon Derain and other "Independent" painters.</p><p>David Shterenberg returned to Russia right after the February Revolution in 1917. He was actively engaged in administrative work - firstly on the protection of monuments of art. Later he was appointed to a position of a head of the Department of Fine Arts of the People's Commissariat of Education. In 1925 together with the architect K.S. Melnikov and artist A.M. Rodchenko he designed the Soviet pavilion of the International Exhibition of Decorative Arts and the Art Industry in Paris. From the mid-20s till the beginning of the 30s he was a member of the artistic council of the editorial board of the children's book GIZ. Like many famous Soviet contemporary artists towards the end of the 1920s he began to work on book graphics creating illustrations for the books of various authors. The first among these books were the children's thin books knizhki-kartinki "Gala and Mgatu" by O. Guryan "Bobka the Physiculturist" by A. Mariengof and the "Children" by V. Mayakovsky. Later David Shterenberg composes and illustrates picture books such as "Tea" "Physical Culture" and others. During this period from the mid-20s to the beginning of the 30s there were a lot of children's books created by the publishing houses Raduga GIZ later OGIZ and others. These books became not just a standard of children book design but also an art and so it's been considered up to this day.</p><p>The collection of poems by R. Kipling translated by Samuil Marshak "40 Nord - 50 West" is considered as the undoubted peak of David Shterenberg's mastery. Illustrations were created in the technique of woodcutting xylography. The feel of distant lands is delivered in a very unique way and black and white color scheme illustrations integrated amazingly along with a rhythm of a text.</p><p>The works of D. Shterenberg are exhibited at the Tretyakov Gallery the State Museum of Fine Arts named by Pushkin Russian Museum and many others. </p><p>Turchinsky p.338</p><p><i>Additional photos can be provided upon request.</i></p><p><i>Please note this item requires paperwork for send out approx. up to 15 working days delivery so it might take some extra time to get this item delivered to you. </i></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p> OGIZ Molodaia Gvardiia paperback

Anyone who is familiar with 'The Jungle Book' and the'Just So Stories' will be aware that Rudyard Kipling derived great inspiration and happiness from children.Uncomfortable in the limelight after achieving international literary fame and successby far his most treasured role became that of father to his three childrentwo of whom died at a tragically young age.It was for JohnElsie and Josephine - his 'dear people'as he called themthat he invented the magical stories that have delighted generations of children for over a century.Over a period of nine yearsfrom 1905 to 1915Kipling wrote a series of letters to his beloved 'Babes'.Signed variously 'Daddo''Pater' and 'Thy Parent'the letters reveal the same imaginationverve and wit as Kipling's fictional works and cover everything from hygiene to spellingnews from homeas well as brilliantly graphic descriptions of travel in EuropeEgypt and Canada.Many of the letters are liberally peppered with impromptu pen and ink sketcheshumorous stories and poems.Perhaps the most moving are those letters written by Kipling to his son Johnwhoas a young officer fighting in France during the First World Warwas to be killed in the trenches in 1915 only a few weeks before his eighteenth birthday.These letters offer an unprecedented glimpse into the relationship between father and son.After John died thefatherly scrawls of affection came to an abrupt endas Kipling would never forgive himself for having encouraged his son to enlist. Professor Elliot L. Gilbert is widely and highly regarded for his groundbreaking research on Kipling.He was formerly Professor of English at the University of California and is the author of numerous critical books and articlesincluding 'Kipling and the Critics' and 'The Good Kipling'.
