It is difficult to select characteristic examples from this marvelous little book.The format and options are clear - an urban scene,a town's badge, a still life of objects, all deployed with a standard wordage of text. I love the varieties and precision of it all, the curious people and the blowing trees. Some illustrators involved in monumental books tire easily. Over the 370 pags Hercik doesn't slacken in interest and in variety. Above all he can be interesting on a small scale.It is no coincidence he also designed stamps.Such conrol too and variety with his colour palette. Thanks Mr. Hercik. |
