It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue (2018) | Bob Dylan

It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue (2018), a hand signed limited edition print by the legendary Bob Dylan from the debut Mondo Scripto collection.

The Mondo Scripto collection features a selection of Bob Dylan’s most renowned lyrics, handwritten by him in pen on paper and accompanied by an original pencil drawing - offering for the first time ever a visual representation of his lyrics.

The impression of a plate mark and embossed logo on each piece are the finishing touches to Dylan’s instantly-recognisable aesthetic.A merciless valedictory: the final verdict on a relationship, seen from outside, although the object of the verdict is ambiguous. This is one of the dense song-poems that strikes a match and sets a fire on the 1965 album Bringing It All Back Home. The carpet is moving, the sky is folding, an ex-lover has stolen the blankets and an orphan is holding a gun and crying in this more lyrical precursor to the stance and point of view in his slightly later masterpiece, Like A Rolling Stone.

First album release: Bringing It All Back Home, 1965
