Lions Den (Sybil Pye Bindings) Ultra Lined Hardcover Journal

English

By (author): Paperblanks

This striking Art Deco design comes from the British bookbinder Sybil Pye (18791959), heralded as one of the top female artisans of her time.Self-taught, Pye began producing her first works in the early 1900s using naturally coloured leather, before graduating to multi-coloured panels. By 1934 she was creating complex covers of up to six different inlays, and her work was regularly exhibited throughout England and around the world.This particular design was crafted to hold a collection of William Wordsworths poems illustrated by Pyes lifelong friend Thomas Sturge Moore. Though we cant be sure that Pye intended to evoke the image of a lions majestic head with this cover, the possibility offers an interesting connection between the binding and its original contents, as one of Wordsworths poems is titled Picture of Daniel in the Lions Den, at Hamilton Place.One of the youngest preFirst World War women binders, Pye was the only binder in England who specialized in inlaid leather bindings. With this series, we pay tribute to a pioneering woman in the art of book design. See more
