An unusual pairing—a guillotine and a grand piano—is featured on the cover of the Summer 1977 issue of The Paris Review. Showcasing the artist William N. Copley’s poetic wit, this image—one of his signature motifs—finds a new iteration in the Copley Tote, made in collaboration with the artist’s estate. A self-taught artist who was deeply influenced by the surrealists, Copley (1919–1996) became well-known as a provocative painter who explored eroticism, humor, and social critique. This careful reproduction retains the detail of the artist’s drawing for the cover of the Review, originally executed in ink. 15 x 13 x 3" bag 9 x 9" open internal hanging pocket Sturdy cotton duck 25" spun poly handles Made in the U.S. Photographs by Scott Rossi.
