“Irish stonework and a bit from the Book of Kells seemed just right for the Fifth Evangelist, as Bach has been called. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and Johann. The first edition of this design was for a sedate film about Anna Magdalena Bach, shown once or twice at the Pacific Film Archive and so crashingly dull that it played nowhere else, far as I know. The poster's reincarnation as general publicity for the California Bach Society came somewhat later. Artists probably invented recycling.”. Item #52-0085
