MATISSE Henri. JOYCE James.
Ulysses.
New York: The Limited Editions Club 1935. Matisse emerges from the fog Quarto. Original brown cloth title and decoration to spine front cover with design by Le Roy Appleton incorporating Matisse's illustration to the Nausicaa episode in gilt bas-relief circled by Roman numerals representing the 24 hours of Bloomsday brown speckled top edge others untrimmed. With 6 soft-ground etchings by Matisse and 20 reproductions of preliminary drawings on yellow and blue paper; printed in double columns; sidenotes and pagination printed in bisque. A near-fine copy a faint scratch and small white blemish to the front board but the binding square and firm the contents clean and etchings bright. First illustrated edition number 88 of 1500 copies signed by Matisse on the colophon. Within weeks of the lifting of the US ban on the book 6 December 1933 the Limited Editions Club impresario George Macy approached Joyce about a special edition of Ulysses and by February 1934 he was en route to Paris to speak to Matisse about illustration. The artist had not read the book and despite being sent a copy of the French translation by Joyce scholar Stuart Gilbert was according to the artist's neighbour Dorothy Bussy née Strachey sister of Lytton Strachey "in a complete fog about it" Goodwin p. 91. Bussy lent Matisse a copy of Gilbert's seminal James Joyce's Ulysses: a Study 1930 which she remarked "he will certainly find useful as a guide through the labyrinth" ibid. Matisse quickly accepted the commission saying that he had "spent the night reading the book and had discerned how the eight episodes in Joyce's Ulysses had their impulse in corresponding episodes in Homer's Odyssey. Macy accepted the suggestion and Matisse went to work" ibid. Matisse's etchings depict the Calypso Aeolus Cyclops Nausicaa Circe and Ithaca episodes. The text with an explanatory introduction by Stuart Gilbert is based on the second impression of the Odyssey Press edition 1933 which is "generally considered to be the most accurate and authoritative text" Slocum & Cahoon p. 30. In her study of Matisse and his relationship to literature Kathryn Brown places the Limited Editions Club Ulysses "at the intersection of four important relationships: artist and writer; visual art and literary criticism; innovation and tradition; France and the United States".

Matisse Henri
Cinquante Dessins Par Henri Matisse.
Paris: Les Soins de l'Artiste 1920. First edition of Matisse's classic self-produced suite of 50 photo-lithographic reproductions of his drawings of women. Quarto original wrappers as issued with an original frontispiece etching of a woman's face. One of only 1000 copies produced this is number 908. Signed by Matisse below the original frontispiece etching "Henri Matisse." Fine in a fine dust jacket. Rare and desirable signed and in the original jacket. Matisse himself edited and printed this exquisite suite of 50 photo-lithographic reproductions of his drawings of women to accompany a 1920 exhibition of his work. "Daily painting sessions alternated with hours on end devoted to drawing a corrective Matisse would use from now on whenever he felt his work was in danger of losing its balance between color and feeling on the one hand and line and form on the other. He returned over and over again to a lace collar drawing it first in minute detail until he had got it by heart and could translated it at will with two swift lines 'into an ornament an arabesque without losing the character of lace and of that particular lace'. Matisse was evolving methods he would use for the rest of his life. He published fifty of these drawings in a portfolio called Cinquante Dessins to coincide with his exhibition at Bernheim-Jeune in 1920. A surge of renewed energy pulses between the lines of the letters he wrote home as he drew them" Spurling 225-26. Les Soins de l'Artiste unknown books

Matisse Henri
Henri Matisse's Handwritten Response to a Request to Pose for a Painting
Eminent French painter. Matisse ranks among the greatest artists of the 20th century. Scarce handwritten letter entirely in Matisse's hand 1 page dated November 2 1949 in French. At this time in his life Matisse said that all he could do was work he dreaded the daily confrontation with form and color on the canvas and could not face it without the consoling human presence of the pretty young girls he paid to pose for him. "That's what keeps me there surrounded by my fruit and flowers which I get to grips with little by little almost without noticing . . . and then I wait for the thunderbolt that is bound to follow."The young women who posed for him all learned to live and work in the atmosphere of almost unbearable tension generated by Matisse's effort to express his emotions on canvas-an effort that drained all his strength. He felt the same tension as when asked to pose himself. <br/><br/>Matisse writes: "Dear Friend I am quite upset about having to write to you that I am too nervous to be able to pose. It is something that has always been painful for me. I have never been able to pose even for Marquet 50 years ago. Please believe dear friend in my regrets and in my best wishes. H. Matisse 2 nov 49 ". Matisse and Albert Marquet were among the foremost painters in the Fauvist movement. They met at and both attended the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs one of the most prestigious French Universities of art and design. Matisse and Marquet were roommates for a time and they influenced each other's work.<br/><br/>Wonderful associations between the two luminaries with interesting insight in Matisse's private nature and the great painter's own nervousness at being the subject and posing. In Excellent Condition. unknown books
