Working always in somber colors, Tàpies develops an imagery of mysterious forms and signs. The austerity of his works and the seriousness of his approach distinguish them from much contemporary abstraction.” (Robert Flynn Johnson, in: LC) The spine of the case is discolored, and the cover has some slight discoloration around the edges. - One side has an offset from the illustration (on the back). Very few, isolated small foxing spots.
