‎Handcrafted Two-Dimensional Figures of Chinese Civilians Made By Chinese Silk and Paper Textile.‎

‎Nine (9) portrait impressions of Chinese civilians, mostly scholars, two geishas, and at least one immortal, each handcrafted of silk, paper, and watercolour paints, each being a one-off unique two-dimensional figure. Figures measure approximately 6 x 20 cm. Six are mounted to paper, three per leaf, paper being creased. Two are not mounted. Very good original condition, bright, colourful, and fascinating nineteenth century peasant art from China. The present items were handcrafted circa 1890, as they come from a collection of varied arts from the estate of a Anglo-Chinese man who worked as Examiner for the Imperial Maritime Customs from circa 1895 to the 1910s. Items like these continued to be made after the turn of the century, expanding the choice of representations. They have been called paper dolls by modern collectors, however they were NOT made as children's play items, which is why they are usually in very good condition. These were ornamental artforms created by innovative Chinese artisans, to sell to foreign visitors who were fascinated by the costume, lifestyle, and ancient folklore of ancient China.‎

‎Kamishibai Propaganda Play, Titled Gonin no Shoya, Containing Colour Illustrations to Depict Five Innovative Heroic Headmen.‎

‎Creator: Hiroshi Hirabayashi. Kamishibai propaganda play / Japanese picture show (kamishibai) illustrating the benefits and immense moral obligation of collaborating with one other for survival. Folio. The complete work, comprising 20 offset full-colour printed illustrative cards which together form a story to educate or indoctrinate the viewer with nationalist concepts during the Second World War, each with printed story text to verso, one of the cards being the title and publishing information. Text is in Japanese. Contained in publisher's original paper portfolio covers, with title label to front. Story cards measure approximately 38 x 26 cm. Portfolio covers measure approximately 39 x 27 x 1 cm. Some age-toning and wear to portfolio, otherwise in very good and original condition, cards retaining vivid impression, a fascinating and scarce Second World War propaganda presentation. Japanese wartime propaganda was distributed through films, magazines and newspapers, radio, books, cartoons and the education system. Publications such as the present illustrative stories, promoted the ideal citizen's nationalistic point of view, indoctrinating civilians to work collectively and in support of their government's actions, even when creating some form of imposition on the citizen himself. Kamishibai are Japanese paper plays that gained popularity among children in the 1930s and were subsequently used as a medium for propaganda during World War II. Also referred to as a "Picture Card Show," they were made for influencing youth with their engaging storylines and vivid imagery. In 1940, elementary schools were renamed "Citizen's Schools." Textbooks became vivid, engaging, and contained militaristic picture-books. During the course of World War II, the Japanese government attempted to indoctrinate Japanese children through education and propaganda. Both methods nationalized youth and encouraged them to support the war effort. Science curriculum, for example education taught children about agriculture so they could better assist in food production for the nation. Youth were expected to volunteer in factories and farms to replace the conscripted labor force. Additionally, "kokutai," meaning the uniqueness of the Japanese people in having a leader with spiritual origins, was officially promulgated by the government, including a text book distributed by the Ministry of Education. The purpose of this instruction was to ensure that every child regarded himself first of all as a Japanese and was grateful for the "family polity" structure of government, with its apex in the emperor. Indeed, little effort was made during the course of the war to explain to the Japanese people what it was fought for; instead, it was presented as a chance to rally about the emperor. This is a dramatic story of collaboration and innovation, its ultimate message being that these virtues are necessary for survival of a society and the individual. Sustenance being the key to survival, the story unfolds as follows. A village in Western Japan suffering a long arid season which led to drought, was unable to support vegetation and was seeing abandonment as many farmers left the region. Evidently this was a large village, having five shoya (village headman), and the latter devised an irrigation plan to restore its agriculture and ultimately preserve the village. In order to instill the urgency of success with the undertaking, the local bugyo (governor) approved the project under the alarming condition that if the project failed, the five headmen who also owned estates in the region, would be burnt alive at the stake. He had five hanging platforms erected in preparation of failure, and also to motivate them to accomplish the task lest they meet a gruesome public fate. Villagers supported the idea and all hands worked diligently to ensure its success. Indeed, working together with a common goal was the key. The water flowed abundantly. The village was saved, and so were the lives of the five headmen. The hanging platforms were set ablaze (without victims) in celebration.‎

‎Kamishibai Propaganda Play, Titled Ninomiya Kinjiro, Containing Colour Illustration Intended to Portray the Importance of Taxation, Specifically Relating to the All-Important Commodity, Rice.‎

‎Kamishibai propaganda plays / Japanese picture show (kamishibai) illustrating the importance of taxation, specifically relating to the all-important commodity: rice. Folio. The complete work, comprising 20 offset full-colour printed illustrative cards which together form a story to educate or indoctrinate the viewer with nationalist concepts during the Second World War, each with printed story text to verso, one of the cards being the title and publishing information.

Indeed, little effort was made during the course of the war to explain to the Japanese people what it was fought for; instead, it was presented as a chance to rally about the emperor. By using the example of the esteemed agrarian reformer and economic savant Ninomiya Kinjiro who was born into peasantry, lost his family and home in a disaster, and overcame all odds to become a notable leader and economic reformer, this story promotes the importance of government taxation, even on basic needs such as rice. Ninomiya Kinjiro (1787-1856) was an important agrarian reformer and economic thinker of the late Edo period. His legendary diligence and studiousness as a child made him a natural exemplar for Japanese schoolchildren. At one time, most every elementary school in Japan displayed a statue depicting Ninomiya as a youth with a bundle of firewood on his back and an open book in his hand.‎

‎Kamishibai Propaganda Play, Titled Uesugi Yozan, Containing Colour Illustration of Samurai Warriors Working in the Fields Aid in Food Production for the Nation at War.‎

‎Kamishibai propaganda play / Japanese picture show (kamishibai) illustrating Samurai warriors plying away in the fields aid in food production for the nation at war. Folio. The complete work, comprising 20 offset full-colour printed illustrative cards which together form a story to educate or indoctrinate the viewer with nationalist concepts during the Second World War, each with printed story text to verso, one of the cards being the title and publishing information.

Indeed, little effort was made during the course of the war to explain to the Japanese people what it was fought for; instead, it was presented as a chance to rally about the emperor. This is a story of Samurai warriors working in the fields with ordinary people in order to help grow food, a clever example using the elite class that all look up to, in order to encourage citizens to contribute to Japan's efforts in World War II. It is cleverly named after the famous and revered Uesugi Yozan, who at the young age of 17 became daimyo of the economically failing Yonezawa domain, and through hard work and sacrifice, led his people and feudal land back to prosperity. Uesugi Yozan (1751-1822), the daimyo (feudal baron) who restored the fortunes of the impoverished Yonezawa domain, is famously known as one of Japan's most virtuous lords. Perhaps the most famous words left by Yozan are, "To achieve, one must act. To not act is to not achieve; this is true in all things. The inability to achieve is the result of inaction." Indeed, Yozan is a fitting an influential figure to support this propaganda and motivate citizens to contribute their efforts to winning the war.‎

‎Original Oil Painting of an Ancient Chinese Junk, from Circa 1901-1910.‎

‎Original oil painting of a striking and stylish Chinese junk (Vessel), on thick cardstock. Made circa 1901-1910. Measuring approximately 25,5 cm x 20,5 cm. Indication at perimeters of previous framing, otherwise in very good condition. With its two strong sails inscribed with Chinese lettering by the artist, this handsome artisan work memorializes the traditions of the ancient Chinese junk, by highlighting the revolutionary and long-standing sailing designs as well as a fascinating superstitious practice. The vessel features painted eyes and an open stern with far reaching tips which exudes speed. A dragon-like flag flies from one of the masts. A stern rudder helps steer through the rough waters of the harbour, which is surrounded by mountains, possibly representing Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour. The peaked and winged-style stern of the vessel suggests speed and agility at high seas. Five Chinese seafarers onboard are wearing traditional dress.‎

‎12 Masterpieces of Korean Arts with the Seal of the President of Korea.‎

‎A special copy, bearing the South Korean Presidential Seal, quite conceivably a unique one-off presentation copy from the Korean Government, of the photogravure portfolio, showcasing a select few of the exquisite Korean art works, which were jointly selected by a Korean-American committee and displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. exhibition "Masterpieces of Korean Arts" held from 15 December 1957 to 12 January 1958. Folio. Complete, with 12 full colour photogravures, each bordered with loosely placed captioned leaf, and contained in its own folding cardstock covers bearing the portfolio title to front and a detailed historical and physical description to interior. Folders open from left to right, suggesting that this work was printed in Korea. Text is in both Korean and English. Publisher's original cloth teal and gold patterned portfolio covers, with two intact bone clasps for secure closure, and gilt presidential seal to front. Photogravure leafs measure approximately 42,5 x 34 cm. Portfolio measures approximately 43 x 34,5 x 3,5 cm Mild age-toning and wear to boards with one cosmetic tear to cloth to interior of one flap, otherwise in very good and original condition, a most unusual variant of this beautiful work, and most likely a Presentation copy from the South Korean Government. The present item is quite rare in any state, but especially this one as it shows a gilt phoenix and flower (Rose of Sharon) emblem found on the presidential seal of South Korea. It is most likely a Presentation Copy from the Korean Government to America, as a memorial to their collaboration of hosting a superb exhibition of historic Korean Art. OCLC shows a few 'standard' editions in libraries. The status and authority of the President of South Korea, officially the Republic of Korea, is represented by a symbolic phoenix emblem. The virtues represented by the mythological bird are parallel to the values a king had to pursue in governing the people, and the design of phoenix was attached on the ceiling of the throne hall of Gyeongbokgung palace, which was the main palace during much of the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910). The design of the phoenix is still used today as the emblem that represents the office of the President of Korea. The exhibition "Masterpieces of Korean Art" was held at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., from 15 December 1957 to 12 January 1958. A joint committee of Koreans and Americans selected 187 objects, with the aim of presenting a cross section of Korean art from 200 B.C. to about 1900.‎

‎Large Japanese Woodblock Broadside Illustrating the Arrival of Commodore Perry's Four American Vessels at Uraga in 8 July 1853.‎

‎Woodblock "kawaraban" broadside illustrating the arrival of Commodore Perry's four American vessels at Uraga in 8 July 1853, featuring a prominent stylized portrait of Perry himself and one of his formidable "black ships". All text is in Japanese. Thin hand-made laid paper measuring approximately 35,5 x 27cm. Small tears at folds and margins, some professional repair to verso, otherwise in very good condition, with clear imagery. A pleasing example of an uncommon variant. A contemporary broadside to alert Japanese civilians of the arrival of Commodore Perry's formidable American vessels. News was travelling fast by word of mouth along the coast and trade routes, and also began being illustrated with the "kawaraban" - broadsides with woodblock prints - for distribution. Naturally, Edo commoners were curious to learn about the imposing vessels that suddenly appeared within sight of their city.] The Japanese named the American vessels "kurofune" (black ships) for the colour of the hulls which were covered in tar and for the black smoke from the coal-fired steam engines. four "Black Ships"‎

‎Album réunissant un titre manuscrit et 25 planches d'aquarelles au pochoir représentant des vases japonais. Cette technique consiste à découper des pochoirs d'une très grande finesse et les fixer sur le papier avec de très fines aiguilles puis utiliser un pinceau à poil court pour appliquer les pigments. Elle est mise au point par Beauvallet lui-même et expliquée dans un manuel Roret intitulé Aquarelle-miniature perfectionnée, reflets métalliques et chatoyans et peinture à l'huile, publié en 1835. On sait peu de choses de l'artiste et de sa vie hormis qu'il effectua un long voyage en Italie et peignit un portrait du pape Grégoire XVI. La production d'albums et de livres enluminés n'étaient qu'une partie de son revenu, il a peint et vendu des méthodes pour enseigner cette technique particulière. Une mention manuscrite ancienne précise que l'ensemble de 25 vases coûtait à l'époque 38 francs. Très bel état aux couleurs éclatantes. Rare dans les institutions et peu commun sur le marché. Lyons, "Beauvalet's de Saint-Victor's Vases grecs et étrusques" in Excalibur: Essays on Antiquity and the History of Collections, 2013, pp. 97-104. * Membre du SLAM et de la LILA / ILAB Member.

‎Brother Antoninus [William Everson]; Philip Van Aver (Artwork - Prospectus)‎

‎The Poet is Dead; A Memorial for Robinson Jeffers‎

‎San Francisco: The Auerhahn Press 1964. First and Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/very good . Van Aver Philip. First edition in book form one of 205 copies quarto size 22pp. signed by Brother Antoninus with prospectus. A heart-wrenchingly beautiful paean by one famous poet Brother Antoninus William Everson 1912-1994 to another John Robinson Jeffers 1887-1962 upon his death. "The great tongue is dried. / The teeth that bit to the bitterness / Are sheathed in truth. / For the poet is dead." <br /> <br /> For those who may not know the Auerhaun Press was founded by Dave Haselwood who relates its beginnings in the opening pages of the "Auerhahn Press Bibliography" thus: "During the Summer of 1958 I drifted around San Francisco talking endlessly with painters such as Robert LaVigne and Jesse Sharpe & poets Lamantia McClure Wieners and reading all the live poetry & prose I could get my hands on. It was at this time that it occurred to me that the press could mean a great many things some personal some in a larger context: - I had reached the point where complete physical involvement in something important to me was absolutely necessary. The press could fill that requirement" pp. 5-6. Andrew Hoyem joined the Press and became a partner; his meticulous attention to detail and skill at design and layout are evident here which would become hallmarks of his work at the Arion Press. <br /> <br /> ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in quarter purple leather over ivory paper-covered boards white paper spine label with gilt lettering title page in purple and black the introduction "Note" and poem both with a two-line purple initial capital each stanza of the poem interspersed with a small purple circle signed by Brother Antoninus on the blank following the last page of the text; binding quarto size 10 3/4" by 8 1/8" unpaginated with twelve leaves; one of 205 copies unnumbered. The dust wrapper of plain white the prospectus a single sheet folded once to four pages an illustration on the front page in purple by Philip Van Aver text on the third page with purple initial capitals the second and final pages blank measuring 8 9/16" by 5 1/2" when closed. <br /> <br /> ___CONDITION: Volume near fine and could likely be deemed fine the boards clean other than light offsetting where the paper meets the leather and a tiny speck at the fore-edge bottom corner of the front board straight corners without rubbing a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and bright and entirely free of prior owner markings; some light offsetting to the paste-down endpapers and a few very small spots of foxing to the same else fine. The dust wrapper a bit better than very good mostly clean other than a few light stray marks light edgewear mostly at the head and tail but with a fair amount of sunning to the spine and back panel; the prospectus fine clean utterly without wear or soil. <br /> <br /> ___CITATION: Auerhahn Press bibliography no. 24; Bartlett and Campo no.

Title page preface table of contents followed by 20 plates depicting the Italian navy and sailors during the First World War. All leaves loose as issued. Nine of the plates depict the Italian navy in one way or another and 11 plates relate to the Serbian retreat during the war. Eight of the plates are portraits the remainder being action scenes. The artwork is broad stroked and has elements of Expressionism. Captured is both the heroism of the sailors and the grimness bleakness and suffering of war. The illustrations are two toned with the color varying but always solemn and dark in feel. Carpi 1886-1973 was a notable Italian artist who among other things helped design new stained glass windows for the Duomo in Milan. During the Second World War he was imprisoned by the Germans in a concentration camp an experience he recorded in sketches and writings -- thus in some sense a counterpart to this series of artwork covering the First World War.
