Very comfortable in political and moral caricatures he is one of the first to give stories in drawings that will soon be called comics and as such occupies a key place in the history of comics in France and among the pioneers of the genre.<br /> <br /> Louis Adrien Huart 1813-1865 was a French journalist writer and theater director. From 1835 he wrote for Le Charivari France's main opposition satirical daily of which he was to become the most assiduous editor. In his literary and theatrical chronicles as well as in his satires of daily political news he constantly approached the legal limit set by censorship without ever exceeding it. Many legends of lithographs by Honoré Daumier came from his pen. Editor-in-chief of Charivari from 1848 he later became its editor until his death. He had the merit of discovering and promoting young talents from the new generation such as Henri Rochefort who without him would have remained a simple employee of the administration. He also wrote the text for several books illustrated by Grandville and Cham.<br /> <br /> Victor Champs 1844-1912 was one of the most prolific and renowned bookbinders of the late nineteenth century. "His bindings for bibliophiles are sought after by collectors for the good performance of their body of work and the finish of the work. Together with Carayon they were the bookbinders who in relatively simple works summed up the highest degree of perfection of execution." Fléty p.41.<br /> <br /> Provenance: Bibliothèque Antoine Vautier.

Una piccolissima mancanza di carta al margine superiore bianco dell'ultima carta, ininfluente. Prima edizione di questa raccolta di opere satiriche e caricaturali del celebre illustratore, caricaturista e fumettista francese, Charles Amédée de Noé, noto con lo pseudonimo di Cham (Parigi, 26 gennaio 1818 Parigi, 6 settembre 1879). Di nobili origini, suo padre era Conte di Noé e Pari di Francia, nonostante una naturale predisposizione per la matematica, preferì fin da giovane di frequentare le botteghe dei due celebri pittori, Nicolas Toussaint Charlet e Paul Delaroche. La sua opera "Histoire de Mr. Lajaunisse", pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1839, una storia ideata come un susseguirsi di immagini sequenziali sulla scorta dell opera dello svizzero Rodolphe Topffer, è considerato il primo albo a fumetti francese. L'opera qui presentata, facente parte delle Miroir Comiques, ne rappresenta il numero 2. Rarissimo. Very rare.‎

Plates lithographed by Destouches.<br /> <br /> Original quarter green pebble-cloth over green grained-paper boards with blindstamped decoration and gilt lettering. <br /> <br /> Of Amédée de Noé â€known as Cham that is Ham the son of Noah…it was said that he had ‘an idea a day’ for Le charivari. A good proportion of his thousands of lithographs were gathered into albums. His contributions to the Album du siège 173 in which Daumier was his collaborator are typical of his work†Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book pp. 155-156.<br /> <br /> In the ninety-seven years since 1923 that ABPC has been recording auction results not a single copy of this work has fallen under the hammer. All albums by Cham are scarce; the volume under notice is extremely so. Only eight copies survive in institutional holdings worldwide.<br /> <br /> The gently amusing trials of an urban gentleman preparing for a vacation in the French countryside and the hilarious tribulations once he arrives. In essence Woody Allen leaves Manhattan for the Catskills and copes with nature and rural life.<br /> <br /> CHAM pseudonym of Charles Amédée de Noé 1818-1879. "It is to be regretted that space will not serve to represent the caricaturists and depictors of manners who followed in the wake of Daumier and Gavarni. Among the most attractive of the former is Amédée de Noé known as Cham that is Ham the son of Noah of whom it was said that he had ‘an idea a day’ for Le charivari. A good proportion of his thousands of lithographs were gathered into albums. His contributions to the Album du siège in which Daumier was his collaborator are typical of his work†<br /> Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book pp. 155-156. Paris: Maison Martinet, 1856 unknown‎
