Folio. 12 drypoint monoprint menus printed from copper plates and designed by Anthony Rice, calligraphy by Ann Alaia Woods. Original hand-sewn CavePaper covers; original Italian linen-covered folding case, the upper cover inset with an original copper intaglio monoprint plate.
LIMITED EDITION, number 11 of 26 copies, SIGNED BY GREEN, RICE, WOODS, book designer ROBERT TAUBER, and chef HUBERT SIEFERT. "The idea for Solche Sensationen... originated with Robert Tauber in the spring of 1990 based on his familiarity with two other books: The Shepheardes Calendar by Edmund Spenser, first published in 1579...and Onze menus de Paul Gaugin by Robert Rey, first published in 1950... Each of the twelve menus in the book recreates a meal that marked a milestone or special occasion in Chef Hubert's life" (Colophon).
