This limited edition print celebrates the beautiful album cover for Larks’ Tongues In Aspic released by King Crimson in 1973.

This edition follows the 2019 silkscreen publications, In the Court of the Crimson King and In the Court of the Crimson King Inner.

THE MAKING OF THE EDITION

Larks’ Tongues In Aspic was the first King Crimson album cover commissioned by Robert Fripp. The earlier albums had been under the art direction of the band’s lyricist Peter Sinfield, who left the band in 1972.

“The sun and moon cover is from a series of tantric symbols, the artist was Peter Douglas of Tantra Designs. The symbol itself addresses the union of opposites.” Robert Fripp

We will aim to provide anyone who previously purchased In the Court of the Crimson King with a matching or complimentary number from this edition.
