Profit and Loss, Art of Mourning in Print

Profit and Loss in A Miscellany of Death & Folly

I’m proud to announce my literary chapter titled ‘Profit and Loss’ in the anthology book A Miscellany of Death & Folly.

Published by Egaeus Press, the book is a lithographically printed, 250 page sewn hardback with colour endpapers; limited to just 300 copies.

ISBN 978-1-916465749.

It can be purchased now for £35.00, inclusive of postage worldwide.

‘Profit and Loss’ is an investigation of the cost of mourning jewels in the 16th – 19th centuries, the goldsmiths who made them, the hair artists who wove them and the retailers who exploited grief for profit.

This is a companion to my USA shows in January, 2020, which dives more into the lives of these people, where they worked and how death generated finances for British families.

Please note that the publisher has removed the references from the publication, so please contact me to request these.
