¡Voto a Rus!

Exquisite little work

Type of project:

Books

Design by:Estudio Flúor

¡Voto a Rus! It is an edition elaborated on the conference La Villa de San Clemente en Don Quijote by cervantist Luis Astrana Marín in the same town, San Clemente (Cuenca) in 1959.

Together with a prologue that places the conference and opens the way to the biography of Luis Astrana Marín, the aforementioned dissertation and chapters 24, 25 and 26 of the second part of the Ingenioso Cavallero Don Quixote de La Mancha are brought together. The well-known engravings by Gustave Doré and images from the National Library of Spain decorate the texts.

This literary tasting at the hands of Estudio Flúor, careful in its design and full of sentimental ties to the town of San Clemente, required in its production approach the same care that its pages radiated.

Gardapat Klassica paper stands out on the inner sheets. A coated art paper in an off-white tone that favors the quality of reproduction of the images with the contribution of a pleasant touch. Throughout the reading you will find colorful pages, in blood, with geometric shapes, Doré’s engravings and the reproduction of chapter 25 in images from the National Library. Such a display needed the balance of high-quality digital printing.

Next to it, the intensity of the Scarlet Geltex coexists on the endpapers and the cover, printed in black offset, with a book jacket in Geltex Siena die-cut in the shape of a rhomboid cell.

The otabind binding was chosen to facilitate its opening and handling.
