The author/illustrator's intent was for this title 'Benign Icons' to be a second version of one of his earlier published books: 'Mythopoeikon'. He hopes to have that title republished by this publisher and for that reason none of the images from it appear in this book.
As many of Woodroffe's earlier titles are out of print,this publisher also hopes to reprint, republish Woodroffe's back catalogue of works, with a couple of Woodroffe's specified exceptions.
