      BINDING: KERSTIN TINI MIURA. B. 1940. SWINBURNE, ALGERNON C. Songs before Sunrise. London: Printed for the Florence Press by Chatto & Windus, 1909 8vo. Multi-colored abstract landscape binding by Kerstin Tini Miura, the exterior with all-over design featuring undulating swaths of lavender, blue, and violet above a base of black morocco, (these areas resembling trees silhouetted against hills), then at bottom an animated line of pearlized white morocco onlays and bubble-like dots of cream and lilac rising from them (suggesting foaming sea waves); flat spine with gilt titling, burgundy polished calf doublures and endleaves, top edge gilt, other edges gilt on the rough, leather-lined, morocco-trimmed chemise and matching slipcase, all contained in a second blue cloth slipcase with paper label on upper cover. Extremely fine. LIMITED EDITION, number 240 OF 650 COPIES printed on handmade paper (and 12 copies on vellum). A desirable private press publication offered in a binding of notable richness characteristic of the work of one of the world's leading contemporary female bookbinders. European by birth, Kerstin Tini Miura (b.1940) studied bookbinding techniques and design in Germany, Switzerland, and France, before choosing to concentrate on French technique. She has taught bookbinding in Sweden and Japan, was a founder and faculty member at the American Academy of Bookbinding in Telluride, Colorado, for 10 years, and has authored 'My World of Bibliophile Binding' (1980). She has been entrusted with the binding of numerous books of very considerable value. Now based in Long Beach, California, she continues to bind books, give lessons, and undertake special projects, including designing Nobel Prize diplomas. The printed work within the binding, from the Florence Press, is a collection of poems calling for the overthrow of political and ideological despotism of all sorts, prompted by the struggle of Swinburne's hero, the Italian patriot Mazzini. Tomkinson, p 85. For the binding: Shoseki 'A Master's Bibliophile Bindings: Tini Miura 1980-1990' 157. For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website
