This is my version of Virtue's Houslehold Physician, Volume 1. I have extracted some of the illustrations from a copy of this book published in 1960 by Virtue & Company Limited in the UK. "A complete guide to health and treatment of illness with the latest discoveries in medicine and approved methods of treatment by eminent specialists, physicians and surgeons." or how to treat yourself when you don't have any internet. The book has been opened and glued and cannot be closed. The back has been reinforced so it can be hung from the wall. For anyone in the medical professions or just because it makes a great talking point! Can be shipped safely (in a very sturdy box) and fully insured anywhere in the world. Once packaged, the box dimensions will be 50cm x 42cm x 7cm.

Born and raised in Paris, with a publisher for a father, I have always loved books, for their content of course but also for what they look or even smell like. I am not academically trained as an artist (I am a headhunter by day) but I have also always loved making things. I moved to London in 1994 and over the last few years, I have been collecting old books (and sometimes new ones) that either look good to me or will tell a story, very often different from their original content. I try to give some of those really old or unloved books a new life and a new purpose. I have a preference for illustrated books, some of the ones we very rarely open.I love bringing the inside permanently outside, for everyone to see and enjoy. And when a book has nothing particular to say or show, apart from a good binding, I make a sculpture that will hopefully turn out appealing to most people. If not, I like them anyway...
