Title:	Ex-Libris Diamond (Tropical Island, Palm Trees, a Volcano & Lies)
Artist:	Feint, Adrian George 'Adrian Feint' (Narrandera, New South Wales, 1894 - Sydney, 1971)
Date:	c. 1930
Medium:	Original Wood Engraving
Source:	Ex-Libris Bookplate
Note:	Adrian Feint 'Adrian George Feint': One of Australia's finest twentieth century artists, Adrian George Feint began his formal education in 1912 at the Sydney Art School, under Julian Ashton and Elioth Gruner. In 1916 he served with the Australian Army on the Western Front and remained there until the end of the First World War (1918). As a reward for his service he was granted three months leave to study art in Paris at the Academie Julien. Adrian Feint then returned to Sydney and began designing covers and illustrations for such publications as Art in Australia.
	In 1930 the ex-libris designs of Adrian Feint received international attention with a one-man exhibition at the Library of Congress, Washington, DC. Beginning in 1932, Feint devoted more and more of his efforts to still-life painting, developing another strong reputation in this genre. Printed in deep orange tints, this Adrian George Feint wood engraving depicts a view of a tropical island with palm trees, tranquil waters and a volcano in the distance. The scene is enclosed within an arrangement of Leis joined together with a sash or ribbon which contains the collector's name; "Diamond" It is a striking example of the ex-libris art of Adrian George Feint. A 'lie' is a garland or wreath made of tropical plants and flowers, often used as a sign of welcome or a symbol of affection.
	Ex-Libris etchings, engravings and woodcuts date all the way back to the mid fifteenth century. Their function was initially quite utilitarian as miniature prints used to signify the ownership of books. As private libraries and their owners gained more wealth and prestige, however, so did their ex-libris bookplates. Pictorial imagery became as important as the wording and titles and the finished work of art came to stand as the owner's claim to posterity. Before long, famous artists were commissioned by prominent collectors to make their ex-libris art and during the centuries such masters as Durer, Holbein, Manet, Toulouse-Lautrec and Rockwell Kent all contributed significantly to this great form of art.
	The golden age for the ex-libris print, however, occurred during the twentieth century. Collecting ex-libris etchings and wood engravings reached such a peak during this time that many artists in Europe and America devoted themselves almost exclusively to this area. Such countries as Holland, Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary formed strong and vibrant ex-libris societies and associations.
