Cover title. One of a kind (edition of 1.) Book #196 by the artist. 6 pages including pastedowns. Accordion structure. Paper title with excerpt and drawing illustration on cover. Mixed media collage. Materials: acid free board, folio and handmade papers, monoprints. Signed and dated by the artist. Another in Eller's series on the Pandemic and the dramatic toll it has taken of human life. In this bookwork, Eller superimposed her drawings of likely victims over the list of the dead published in "The New York Times". Over yellow pages of cell like images she has placed small photos of people she has known that fell victim to COVID-19. On the pastedowns Eller has printed over the Times list, words we use when talking about those who have died - "Lost", "Dead", "Passed", "Gone", "Demised", "Died", "Departed". Saying the words out loud as one reads down the page is like a death knell -COVID-19 marching through the US - through the world." -- Bookseller's description, taken from Vamp and Tramp's website : http://vampandtramp.com/finepress/e/evelyn-Eller.html
