Christopher Weimann (1946–1988): A Tribute

Edited by Ingrid Weimann and Nedim Sönmez

Published by Jäckle-Sönmez, Tübingen, Germany, 1991

Limited Edition – Hand-numbered #124 of 400 copies

Signed by Ingrid Weimann

A finely produced tribute to the life and work of master marbler Christopher Weimann, this volume presents over 90 illustrations (38 in color), personal reflections, and scholarly essays. Most notably, it includes 8 1/2 original marbled paper samples made by Weimann himself, bound into the volume. Printed on high-quality, chlorine-free Phoenix Imperial paper, this edition reflects the artistry it celebrates.

The book is part of a limited regular edition of 400 hand-numbered copies (this copy is #124), and it bears the signature of Ingrid Weimann on the acknowledgments page. The marbled paper on the title page was created for a 1988 UCLA lecture.
