I read about Johanna Maria Hendrika Daemen (1891–1944) <a href="http://www.johncoulthart.com/feuilleton/2015/03/25/jo-daemens-the-sacred-flame/" target="_blank">on feuilleton</a> and then found some book covers she designed. These are from 1928 to 1930.<br />

I try not to think about how much I would pay for a copy of Hilde Krüger's 1924 children's book <i>Der Widiwondelwald</i>. Some links (in German): <a href="http://www.uni-erfurt.de/die-sammlung-teufel/thematische-schwerpunkte/kunst-und-musik/kunst/">one</a>, <a href="http://adalbert-gregor.de/2015/02/15/widiwondelwald-kubistisches-bilderbuch-von-hilde-krueger-1924/">two</a>, <a href="http://kibook.blogspot.com/2013/11/ein-bilderbuch-aus-bunten-dreiecken.html">three</a> -- see the full book as smaller images at the last link to the kibook blog.<br />

<a href="http://rarebook.com/index.php/component/content/article/41/534">Bookseller's description</a>: "[AVANT-GARDE POETRY] HINO Shunsuke. Shishû SEKIJI NO KUBI WO KIRU. Tôkyô, Erosu-dô. Shôwa 4 [1929]. 18.5 x 12.7, bound Western-style in wrappers with illustrated covers, book design and illustrations throughout by Iguchi Masao. A product of the Nagoya avant-garde. The illustrations and design of this "CUTTING THE BABY'S THROAT" are jarring, some of the poems sound and feel like they were written while falling down a flight of stairs. The paper is browned and some pages a bit edgeworn but a very good copy overall of this ephemeral production."

Most of these works by Bettina von Arnim (b. 1940) come from <a href="http://poll-berlin.de/Galerie/de/kunstler/bettina-von-arnim/werke/">Galerie Poll</a>, though I have trouble navigating to them directly from their website. The rest come from expired auction listings. I gave titles when I could find them. I would love to see more of her work (and proper reproductions).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Not related (as far as I know) to previous poster-boys of this blog, Clemens Brentano and Achim von Arnim (unlike <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bettina_von_Arnim">this Bettina von Arnim</a>).<br />
<br />
update: Thomas Kümmel (<a href="https://twitter.com/klbkultur">@klbkultur</a> on twitter) left a comment about the artist. Thank you!<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Bettina von Arnim (born 1940 at Zernikow) is related to the widely branching noble lineage "von Arnim" although it is not easy to trace her roots.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
She is the daughter of Friedmund and Clara von Arnim. Her parents managed the family estate "Gut Zernikow" until it was expropriated by the Soviets. They then fled Eastern Germany for West Berlin in 1945.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Her father, Friedmund von Arnim, was a great-grandchild of Ludwig Achim and Bettina von Arnim (German writer and novelist, Countess of Arnim and sister of Clemens Bretano). Friedmund von Arnim died as a prisoner of war in Russia in January 1946. Her mother, Clara von Arnim, died on May 7, 2009 at the age of 99.</blockquote>

"<a href="http://www.frankmechau.com/biography">Frank Mechau Jr.</a> (1904-1946) was a well-known Colorado artist who often painted scenes depicting the Western Colorado mountains he loved."<br />
<br />
Stumbled on this artist while googling another Frank Mechau, one who illustrated <a href="http://typographeum.com/_illustrations/Poetry/Aldington.Myrrhine.jpg">a book by Aldington</a> in 1931.<br />
<br />

During the hurricane (not so bad in Philly) I posted <a href="http://butdoesitfloat.com/There-is-no-sense-in-looking-for-something-behind-phenomena-they-are">some NASA photos of past storms</a> on But Does it Float. (Unusually topical for me, I know.) I used a Goethe quote found in Auden's <i>A Certain World: A Commonplace Book</i>. Here's the full quote:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Many years ago, as now, my mind strove with eager delight to study and discover the creative life of Nature. It is eternal unity in manifold manifestation; the great is little, the little is great, and everything after its kind; ever changing and yet preserving itself, near and far, and far and near, and so shaping and re-shaping itself—to marvel at it is what I am here for.<br />
<br />The reason why I prefer the society of nature to any other is that nature is always right and the error, if any, can only be on my side. But if I hold converse with men, they will err, then I will, and so on forever, and we never get to see matters clearly.</blockquote>
<blockquote>
Everything factual is, in a sense, theory. The blue of the sky exhibits the basic laws of chromatics. There is no sense in looking for something behind phenomena: they <i>are</i> theory.</blockquote>
<br />
On the next page Auden gives a fun Lichtenberg aphorism:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
If nature be regarded as the teacher and we poor human beings as her pupils, the human race presents a very curious picture. We all sit together at a lecture and possess the necessary principles for understanding it, yet we always pay more attention to the chatter of our fellow students than to the lecturer's discourse. Or, if our neighbor copies something down, we sneak it from him, stealing what he himself may have heard imperfectly, and add to it our own errors of spelling and opinion.</blockquote>
