About the book
Ismália, by Alphonsus de Guimaraens (1870-1921), from Minas Gerais, is one of the most beautiful poems of Brazilian Symbolism. In this new interpretation by artist Odilon Moraes, the reveries unfold in mirrored pages. The tower, the sky and the sea take shape, illuminated by the “double moon of Ismália gone mad”, as another poet from Minas Gerais, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, described it.

About Fine Art Printing
These are those created with techniques and materials that use the most rigorous criteria today to achieve an impression with museum longevity.
The papers are 100% cotton. The inks, which are made of mineral pigments, are not soluble in water, therefore they do not fade. And the color fidelity, by using RGB, is much greater than common printing.
A work printed in fine art, therefore, deserves to be signed and numbered, and can last a lifetime.
