Abstract
The examples selected for this catalogue are original works of art. Included are fourteen prints, sixteen illustrated books, one watercolor, and one pen and ink sketch. Chosen because they exemplify the collaborative process,, the prints and illustrations are autonomous objects that can be appreciated for their aesthetic qualities alone. To understand more fully their content, value and integrity, it is necessary to focus on their collaborative nature. The aim of this essay and catalogue is to discuss why and how certain artists produced both prints and book illustrations and to examine the fascinating and different types of collaboration represented by them.
