BRONTE, Emily. WUTHERING HEIGHTS. New York: Limited Editions Club, 1993. 
Folio (12-3/4" x 16-1/2") bound in goatskin leather dyed grey-green to 
evoke the Yorkshire moors and housed in a cloth slipcase with leather 
spine label. Illustrated with 15 drawings by the artist Balthus which 
were begun in 1933 when he was 25 for an edition of WUTHERING HEIGHTS 
that did not materialize. Balthus, in his eighties, agreed to have the 
entire suite presented for the first time if the publication was 
strictly limited. The drawings were turned into lithographs and printed 
on fine Japanese paper and then mounted on mould-made paper from France 
uniquely watermarked with the coat of arms of Balthus's family: 
Klossowski de Rola. Copy #5 of only 300 copies SIGNED by the artist and 
with an afterword by him as well. Monthly Letter laid in. Fine in a Fine 
clamshell box, as issued. (#017281)        $5,000.00
