Farewell to the Humble Tailor — Judith Hornbogen

$35.00

Farewell to the Humble Tailor is a poetic journey exploring valedictions, changes (metamorphoses) and the emotions associated with it through images and words. 

Personal or else sentimental farewells and resigning from a vocational branch for good are communicating and become intertwined through a literal as well as metaphorical approach.
