The newest release from the Art of Dr. Seuss is all about ART.
In 2013, Ted’s wife Audrey discovered a long-overlooked box in her La Jolla home. It contained two unpublished books. One was an early concept for Ted’s Dr. Seuss’s Horse Museum, an inventive story revealing the true nature of art and its power to inspire and affect our lives.
This newest Capsule Release features a circa 1950’s sketch conceived by Ted for this unrealized project. It is one of the only fully developed drawings he made, offering collectors a rare piece of Dr. Seuss history. For admirers of Dr. Seuss, this artwork stands as both a collectible treasure and a lasting symbol of his inventive spirit.
(NOTE: After being tucked away for nearly six decades, Random House Publishing completed the project in 2019 with final illustrations by Andrew Joyner).
Listen With Your Eyes
An artist’s job is more than creating captivating imagery. They must also convey the excitement and inspiration they feel about a subject in a way that allows us to find meaning. As collectors, if we “listen” closely, not only can we find meaning, but we can begin to see our world anew. That is the true magic of art, and the true talent of Ted Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss.
He Had Something To Say That Was Really Worth Saying
Authorized Estate Edition. Image Size: 17” x 25”
Limited Edition of 195 Arabic Numbers
How Do You See The World
And What Does It Say About You
In this rare work, Ted specifically points to the fact that an artist should say “something that is really worth saying.” This same idea applies to us as collectors. When we fall in love with a particular work, our own collections begin to say something worth saying about us.
Whether we own one piece, twenty pieces, or more (like many collectors), each work we hang on our wall is a reflection of who we are and what is most important to us in life.
-
Are you a child at heart?
-
Are you looking at life through the wrong end of the telescope?
-
Are you curious enough to look past the surface, to “listen with your eyes” and find the lessons that are deeply important to us in our lives?
If you answered “yes” to any of the above, then this new work may be the perfect foundation to the collection you’ve already begun… or the one you plan to start!
