In this artboook of images and writings inspired by his travels in Mexico, Guatemala, Fiji, and Hawaii, as well as studies of religious icons, Jean Charlot creates a second "picture book" on the 40th anniversary of his first illustrated book of the same name. The lithographs were drawn on the plates by Charlot and printed by Master Printer Lynton Kistler.

Featuring 32 original lithographs, this copy of Picture Book II retains several uncut sheets (see second image). Though it no longer has its slipcase, the book is in overall excellent condition. There is minor sunfading to the spine and shallow denting along the cover's edges. Price reflects condition.
