WELLS (H.G.) AND DAVID LOWA collection of 9 large original artworks by David Low for H.G. Wells' novel The Autocracy of Mr. Parham, published in 1930, pen, pastel crayon, ink and body colour on drawing paper, captions, proofing corrections and amendments in the margins, each signed ('Low') lower left or right, 435 x 695mm., [1930] (9)Footnotes:The artwork produced by the great British cartoonist David Low for H.G. Wells's political novel The Autocracy of Mr. Parham, published in 1930. Low's striking large format images were greatly reduced in size when published as double-page spreads in the printed novel. Wells's satire of autocracy and fascism, big money and the inadvertent slide into the commencement of a World War brought about by 'the imaginations of a modern British imperialist of the university type' (Wells, Experiment in Autobiography, 1934), was based on recognisable caricatures of figures such as Lord Beaverbrook (Low's employer at the Evening Standard) and Mussolini, and differences in outlook between Britain, America and Europe, themes eloquently illuminated by Low with background of jazz dancing, flappers, grandstanding heads of states, the mobilising of military forces, and their consequences represented by the collapse of Nelson's column in Trafalgar Square. The book was published in London by William Heinemann (July 1930), and in America by Doubleday Doran (June 1930).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
