Les Etoiles.
1849. GRANDVILLE J.J. Les Etoiles. By Joseph Mery. 4 xvi 252 pp.; 4 186 2 pp. With 15 hand-colored engravings. 8vo. 255 x 176 mm bound in the original publisher's wrappers in a new blue half moocco folding box. Paris: G. de Gonet 1849. A fine copy of this charming work Grandville's last book of illustrations preserved as issued in the originalillustrated wrappers. It actually consists of two parts each having its own title-page but the parts are always found together. There are fifteen steel engravings by Grandville all with delicate original hand-coloring. Despite occasional foxing the impressions are extremely clean--an unusual state for French books of this type from this period. "The compositions of the `last fairy-tale' brilliantly engraved on steel by Charles Geoffroy and delicately colored form a fitting memorial to Grandville. They show that his powers remained unimpaired to the end of his short career" Ray. Despite damage to the fragile original spine this is a wonderful fresh copy with just insignificant foxing to a couple of pages. Extremely rare in the original wrappers. Ray 200. unknown

1884. GRANDVILLE J.J. Les Fleurs Anim�es. Introduction by Alphonse Karr. Text by Taxile Delord. 3-260; 2 102 4 iv 2 106-166 2 iv 169-234 2 pp. Illustrated with 2 engraved title-pages 50 hand-coloured engraved plates by Grandville plus 2 engraved botanical plates. 4to. 264 x 178 mm bound in original publisher's cartonnage bindings richly gilt a.e.g. Paris: Gabriel de Gonet n.d. 1847. $4750.00 A Fine Copy in the original publisher's cartonnage bindings a true classic of floral surrealism. This copy with superb hand colouring to the engravings belongs to a hitherto undescribed edition with a separate pagination for the two parts. Of all his works Les Fleurs Anim�es was Grandville's own personal favorite. In the fifty hand-coloured plates Grandville portrays a flower or plant metamorphosized into a lady clad in the petals or leaves particular to that flower or plant. Further his flower turned human exhibits the human personality traits which Grandville perceives as characteristic of the species he is illustrating. Les Fleurs Anim�es is "a little world created and governed by its own laws which was full of significance for Grandville " Ray. Occasional inoffensive foxing not detracting from the finely coloured plates. Two tipped on gilt-stamped pieces from the spine missing. Now rare in the publisher's binding. Renonciat Grandville p. 287. Carteret III 286. Ray 198. Plesch 241. Sello Grandville: Das Gesamte Werk II 1500-1508. unknown

Les fleurs animees. Par J.J. Grandville. Texte par Alph. Karr Taxile Delord et le Cte. Foeulix. Nouvelle edition avec planches tres soigneusement retouches pour la gravure et le coloris par M. Maubert peintre d'histoire naturelle attaché au Jardin des Plantes
Paris; Garnier Freres n.d. 1867 New edition. Contemporary red morocco over red cloth boards. Gilt spine all edges gilt. . Two volumes large octavo. Two hand-colored wood-engraved titles and fifty hand-colored wood-engraved plates two uncolored plates. Decorative woodcut initials and tailpieces throughout. Binding extremities lightly rubbed tear at head of spine of Vo. 2 neatly repaired. Some light foxing at beginning and end of each volume. A very good clean set. Though the images in the book are of Grandville's time his manner of proceeding is that of an artist of the modern movement exploring the same subject through a sequence of slight but significant variations. Most of the plates show an elegant lady accompanied by respectful creatures animals and insects even fish and reptiles. As the series nears its end there are more elaborate scenes of flower-ladies in groups. A little world is created governed by its own laws which was full of significance to Grandville and hence becomes so to the reader as well. his first biographer wrote in the preface to Les étoiles pp. viii-ix: 'The Fleurs animées are the very thought of Grandville; they were his favorite work the work into the execution of which he put all that was in him of poetic and gracious originality of dexterity of mind and observation of that prodigious perspicacity which made him divine affinities hitherto unperceived by anyone and discover new worlds'" Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book 198.

Re-impression of the first edition published in 1829. One of two variant copies noted by Vicaire each with a slightly different title and title page information. I could only find four auction records of this 1836 edition. Three of these had the extended title. This copy with the shorter title last appeared at auction in 2012. This copy not coloured and without the suppressed plates. Although later editions of this work are quite common this re-impression appears to be quite rare especially in the original boards and in such excellent condition. Head of spine and board tips with light wear the plates are a little age toned and foxed around the edges. G. Vicaire 5 780; L. Carteret3 284; Ray 197. Aubert et cie, Place de La Bourse, 29 hardcover

The drawing shows the left two thirds of the published plate the two figures conversing the fox playing cards and the table with the cloth and the lamp in finished form; a female figure is drawn lightly in pencil seated on the other side of the table playing cards with the fox. In the published drawing this figure has been changed and a fifth figure to the right has been added. The design of the lamp has also been modified. In Fine condition. Original artwork by Grandville is uncommon and a piece showing a stage in the creative development of a work of such fame and importance as Les Metamorphoses is particularly interesting and appealing. $3500.00 Grandville JEAN-IGNACE-ISIDORE GERARD 1803-1847 was a caricaturist best known for presenting animals in human form and using them to satirize the French social and political milieu of his period. His reputation was established with Metamorphoses du Jour in 1829 and he went on to illustrate numerous other satirical books as well as literary classics. He also drew for the humor magazines of the period "Charivari" and "Caricature." His work has continued to influence artists down to the present day. hardcover

GRANDVILLE; JJ. JEAN JACQUES GRANDVILLE J. J.
Les M�tamorphoses du Jour.
1854. GRANDVILLE J.J. Les M�tamorphoses du Jour. 4 xxviii 283 pp. With 70 hand-coloured wood engravings after designs by Grandville. Large 8vo. 262 x 163 mm bound in publisher's illustrated polychrome boards. Paris: Havard 1854. First Edition in book form comprised of 67 designs from the excessively rare 1829 suite 2 lithographs from La Silhouette and 1 woodcut from the Mus�e Philipon. The M�tamorphoses du Jour was the work which established Grandville's reputation as a brilliant satirical critic of social manners institutions and prejudices. "Throughout the series Grandville's choice of beastheads is inspired and the force of his conceptions and the wit of his captions rarely falter. Occasionally he produces a design of universal application that calls Goya to mind" Ray. Charles Blanc described the M�tamorphoses du Jour as "the most original and most remarkable series in Grandville's oeuvre." The text for this edition was contributed by Alberic Second Louis Lurine Cl�ment Caraguel Taxile Delord and others. In fine condition with the binding exceptionally fresh but with some insignificant spotting or foxing throughout not affecting the plates. The hand-colouring in this copy is excellent. Carteret III 282. Brivois 179. Ray French 132 1829 suite. Rebeyrat p. 288. hardcover
