§ Edward Wolfe R.A. (South African/British 1897-1982) Song of Songs, designed 1930 set of 12 offset lithographs, printed by Adrian Lack at The Senecio Press on aluminium lined paper in four colours (each panel 35cm x 26cm (13.75in x 10.25in), mounted under one frame) Footnote: Provenance: Patrick Seale Gallery, London. Wolfe painted a set of 12 drawings on Chinese silver paper in 1930 to accompany a new translation of the text, by poet and novelist Louis Golding. However, the book was never printed, but the works were exhibited in Edward Wolfe’s Art Council Exhibition of 1967. Wolfe always wanted to produce a series of prints of the same subject, but was advised of the technical difficulties in accomplishing this and it was not until he met the printer Adrian Lack of The Senecio Press a number of years later that this became a possibility. The set were then produced in an edition of 250 and sold by The Royal Academy.
