Icon: Art of the Wine Label

Rating:
Summary: Captivating
Review: This book is pure poetry in motion! An amazing collaboration by Jeffrey Caldewey and Chuck House who, according to Robert Mondavi (he wrote the book's forward) are "the acknowledged masters of the modern wine label design". This masterful work of art will elegantly grace my living room coffee table, but is so much more than just another pretty book. Everyone, from wine connoisseurs, art enthusiasts, to students interested in any form of art or genius will absoultely love this book.

Summary: Great book!
Review: Work from the world's leading wine label artist and designers Jeffrey Caldewey and Chuck House. An intricately produced book incorporating the symbolic language of wine labels, trademark illustration incorporating style with remarkable production elements. The definitive book on wine label art, design and history. Every aspect of wine label design is clearly and thoroughly covered. A beautiful book printed on high quality paper, displaying colourful details and commentaries behind the art of the wine label. The quality of print is so good it's almost as though the original labels have been pasted onto the pages. This book offers to anyone who is fortunate to own it a broadened knowledge on a subject often discussed with little or no knowledge at the dinner table. For many that know much about wines here's an opportunity to learn more about the mystery and allure behind the wine label. I rate this book a '10' on a scale of Ten.
