John Derian Picture Book | Books

Description

John Derian is a legendary decoupage artist who transforms printed images from the past — including illustrations, etchings, chromolithographs, and rare reproductions that were garnered from eighteenth- and nineteenth-century found books. Each year, he designs and oversees the hand-crafting of more than seven hundred new objects including paperweights and coasters, trays and plates. These items are as much functional home goods as they are objets d’art. The
John Derian Picture Book
is a curated collection of nearly three hundred of Derian’s best-loved images from his more than thirty years of work. It is an astoundingly beautiful assortment of over 400 full-bleed images in their original form. With intensely colored flowers and fruit, birds and animals, and curious portraits to calligraphy, the
John Derian Picture Book
is a work of art in and of itself.
