This book is a collection of works by Ruth Martens, wife of the master of Dutch design, Karel Martens, titled "Animal Books For Jaap Zeno Anna Julian Luca (Reprint)". Martens, a master of Dutch design, left behind many avant-garde works and made a great contribution to guiding the next generation, even at a time when graphic design was still in its infancy and the profession was not fully recognized. This book is a collection of animal scraps created by his wife, Ruth, for their five grandchildren - Jaap, Zeno, Anna, Julian, and Luca. Ruth began making animal albums for each of her grandchildren when her first grandchild, Jaap, was born, and the contents of these, created from magazine and advertisement clippings, were updated as the children grew up. Of course, it was not intended to be published as a book, but it is a masterpiece compiled as a homage to the splendor and love of the time. This is a reprint published in 2021 following the first edition in 2017.
