Edward and The Horse Olle Eksell Double page spread from his 1961 children’s book, written by Ann Rand. A dream team, and it’s a complete mystery to me why this hasn’t been reissued. One of those perfect mid-Century children’s books and I wish I had a perfect copy, but very happy to make do with my library discard! #olleeksell #annrand #edwardandthehorse #designclassic #midcenturymodern #graphicdesign #designlegend https://www.instagram.com/p/BoLg-2vDueR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j60v3luj5h8p

Listen…if you’re very quiet, you can hear the sound of the breeze whispering in the trees. Listen, and you can hear the tiny plop of a raindrop, the whop of a ball hitting the fence, or even the crunch, crunch of buttered toast. You can listen to the scary sounds, too, the wail of a siren in the night or the moan of trees when a storm is coming. Best of all are the sounds of morning, when the world is waking up...

That particular sense of sacred rapture men say they experience in contemplating nature- I've never received it from nature, only from. Buildings, Skyscrapers. I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline. The shapes and the thought that made them. The sky over New York and the will of man made visible. What other religion do we need?"

Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead
