This well-known biblical ode to marriage and erotic love has been attributed to King Solomon, or his storytellers...Italian-American graphic artist, engraver, printer and children's author, Valenti Angelo (1897-1982), created the striking book art here. His art shows some influence of his fascination with the decorative arts of the American Southwest, which he employs in the design of the sun and sunflowers, for instance, shown on this book's covers. He designed art for a variety of private press as well as larger commercial publishers during a lengthy career". (M. Bussacco,)
