A lovely copy of this Fantastical re-telling of the myth of Arachne wherein she rebels at the teaching of Athene in weaving enchanting webs of silk. A delightful study from Phillpotts about the role of Gods and humans and how they interacted in mythological times. A fine copy in a near fine dustjacket, 1st British edition from Faber and Gwyer Publishers, London.
Printed in London for Lippincott, Philadelphia. Some chipping to paper spine label. Still a very nice copy of this Large Illustrated Edition. A classic Arcadian Fantasy.
