Colin Self (b.1941) - Power and Beauty the portfolio, 1969, comprising six screenprints in colours, each signed and titled in white ink or pencil, numbered variously from the editions of 75 and 30, printed by Lynn Haywood at Editions Electo, London, published by Editions Electo, London, with their black rubber stamp and archive number verso, all on wove paper, the full sheets loose as issued within the original black cloth-covered portfolio boards and red slip-case, overall size 720 x 1085 (28 3/8 x 42 3/4 in) 'The photo images I have presented in Power and Beauty have seemed complete, impregnable the subjects are transformed and can be seen for appearance, aggressive or passive looks. This upsets the objects real physical size to a certain extent so that e.g. the cockerel looks deadlier and more massive than the charging elephant and Joe Baillon's classic customised car becomes elephantine, sinister and oppressive, more menacing than nuclear warheads.'
