"The otter must enter his holt through water. Water that's stilled and steady, well-deep to catch the print of high-flying birds. The otter with pale grey feet must leave through water: dry home, wet element staking his life on margins."
The text is from a poem by by Catherine Byron, "Liadain to Cuirithir, 1. Changing Elements",
published in Catherine's book 'The Fat Hen Field Hospital', Loxwood Stoneleigh, 1993.
Close-ups of free cursive italics, with half uncial for the word Otter in the background.
ABOUT THE ARCHIVAL MEDIA

The detail is super fine at this resolution, almost 10 times finer than commercial printing. Even under a magnifying glass the prints hold up to close scrutiny.
