"His drawings superseded the work of all his predecessors from Gilbert to Abbey and for fifty years have enriched the imagination...Here he excelled especially in landscape, and in reconciling dream and reality, giving himself to the luxury of rich detail with a rare generosity." A fine copy of an admirable Rackham classic, in a bespoke binding designed and executed by Chris Lewis, among Bayntun-Riviere's most talented finishers in the mid-20th century before starting his own bindery with Derek Harris.

When Raymond Levy of Editions André Sauret first approached the artist about illustrating Shakespeare's Tempest, Chagall initially hesitated because he was afraid he might not do justice to the text, but then between March and May 1975, he produced fifty drawings on tracing paper, which were transferred onto zinc plates and sent back to Chagall for final retouching (Sorlier S. 17f.).
