Childrens Book — Fine Art

Childrens Book - 1957 by Dieter Roth shows a page or cover with hand drawn forms and small type. The layout reads like a folded picture book, with words mixed into the drawing. Colours stay close to what you would see on a cheap printed page.

This fine art print uses a light frame on a dark wall, or a dark frame on a pale wall, or a wood frame beside wooden furniture. The frame follows the room, so the page stays readable under a ceiling light.

It sits on a hallway wall at shoulder height, so you see the small letters first and the shapes second. From the landing you notice the dark type against the brighter ground.
