Influenced by a gap year spent studying art and Italian in Florence, Italy, Mazur's thesis included 16 hand - carved woodcuts and
wood engravings illustrating texts from the Bible, Oscar Wilde, Gustav Flaubert and Stéphane Mallarmé.
Seventeen color etchings with aquatint are highlighted in the series, along with 82
wood engravings that
illustrate the text, written by Rouault.
