‎Chanteur américain - Le Café Concert‎

‎Paris: L'Estampe originale 1893. Fine. L'Estampe originale Paris 1893 31.50 x 43 cm en feuilles TOULOUSE-LAUTREC Henri de. Chanteur américain – Le Café Concert L'Estampe originale Paris 1893 315 x 43 cm one single leaf An original print by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec from Le Café-Concert series published by Publications de l'Estampe Originale. A very rare and handsome lithograph one of 500 original proofs printed on vélin paper by Edouard Ancourt printers. A rare print perfectly preserved a reminder of the splendors of the “Fin de siècle Paris by night”. A veritable ode to the Café-concert this series by Toulouse-Lautrec and Henri-Gabriel Ibels captures the essence of the Parisian lifestyle and the vitality of its nights. The plates are accompanied by a pamphlet by the writer Georges Montorgueil singing the praises of these establishments so wrongly looked down on which he calls “a tonic for modern life.” Far removed from the heavy atmosphere of theatres and concert halls these “carefree” places saw a real boom during the Belle époque and launched the careers of some remarkably modern artists. The two painters here produced portraits of the most famous cabaret stars at the time caught in the movements of their “epileptic choreographies” or the grace of their poses. The big names in cafés-concerts including Jane Avril Yvette Guilbert – Toulouse-Lautrec's muse – or Aristide Bruant are shown in direct and confident aspects inspired by Japanese woodcuts. The influence of Impressionism is also discernible in the finer details – the style being in vogue at the fin du siècle. Toulouse-Lautrec had been a regular fixture at the Salon des Indépendants since 1889 and had shown there his view of Parisian high society traversing society salons and the city's brothels as well not to mention cabarets like the Moulin Rouge for which he designed a poster that has remained famous to this day. Another master of posters and draughtsmanship Ibels would work with the Éditions de l'Estampe Originale several times including on a series of drawings of the circus. He was also the creator of numerous illustrations for popular newspapers known for his dynamic and incisive style. L'Estampe originale unknown‎

L'Estampe originale Paris 1893 31.50 x 43 cm en feuilles Mary Hamilton - Le Café Concert An original print by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec from the Le Café-Concert series published by Publications de l'Estampe Originale. A very rare and handsome lithograph one of 500 original proofs printed on vélin paper by Edouard Ancourt printers. Portrait of Mary Hamilton by Toulouse-Lautrec. This cabaret singer is here presented in full flow dressed in men's clothes. Lautrec was fond at this time of lithographic ink drawing simple lines full of movement reminiscent of Japanese ukiyo-e prints.

‎Deux dialogues du nouveau langage françois italianize et autrement deguize principalement entre les courtisans de ce temps : de plusieurs nouveautez qui ont accompagné ceste nouveauté de langage: De quelques courtisianismes modernes & de quelques singularitez courtisanesques‎

‎Anvers Antwerp: Par Guillaume Niergue 1583. Fine. Par Guillaume Niergue Anvers Antwerp 1583 8 x 12.50 cm relié The first edition was published in 1578 in Geneva. Brunet II 1076: 'Cet ouvrage piquant a été édité à Genève en 1578 et non à Paris ; selon plusieurs bibliographes. L'auteur y a prodigué son immense érudition mais en même temps s'y est permis certaines plaisanteries un peu hardies qui lui attirèrent une verte semonse du conseil de Genève par suite de laquelle il jugea prudent de s'absenter. Il en existe deux autres d'Anvers 1579 et 1583 in 16 qui ne sont guère moins rares que la première et dont le prix est assez élevé.' ""This piquant work was published in Geneva in 1578 and not in Paris; according to several bibliographers. The author lavished his immense erudition upon it but at the same time permitted himself certain rather bold jokes which brought him a sharp rebuke from the Geneva council as a result of which he judged it prudent to absent himself. There exist two others from Antwerp 1579 and 1583 in 16mo which are hardly less rare than the first and whose price is quite high."" Full calf binding mid-19th century. Ornate spine with raised bands in the style of a 17th-century binding. Rubbing. Missing the lower right corner of leaf 97 with loss of a few letters from the last word. Satirical dialogues mocking court behaviors fashion in dress and language the fashion of pronouncing French words in the Italian manner for example or linguistic conventions about titles. Henri Estienne conceals himself under the name of Jean Franchet. The drollery and mockery are often pushed quite far and the whole reads with the greatest delight. The two dialogues are preceded by poems addressed to courtiers no less droll and satirical. Par Guillaume Niergue hardcover‎

‎Henri FANTIN-LATOUR - (William SHAKESPEARE)‎

‎"Immortalité"" - Lithographie originale sur Chine - L'Estampe Moderne‎

‎Paris: Imprimerie Champenoispour CH. MassonH. Piazza 1898. Fine. Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza Paris Mai 1898 24.50 x 34.50 cm une feuille Rare original lithograph executed by Henri Fantin-Latour for L'Estampe Moderne series number 13 published in May 1898. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on China paper with wide margins artist's signature in the plate publisher's dry stamp representing a child's profile in the lower margin mounted on a sheet of laid paper with the numbered stamp of the deluxe issue on the verso pale marginal foxing. Lithograph inspired by an extract from William Shakespeare's Sonnets. Magnificent French monthly publication issued between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consisted of original chromolithographs which unlike other periodicals such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specially by each artist for the magazine. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late nineteenth century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Epoque. Each issue of four prints was issued in 2000 copies sold at 3.50F and 100 on Japan paper offered at 10F. Henri Piazza also planned a confidential deluxe printing: 50 copies on Japan paper with wide margins and 50 in black on China paper at the considerable price of 30F. This print in a handsome format is superbly printed on one of the most prestigious papers: China paper. ""Despite all its qualities China paper too inconsistent owes its reputation not to its own beauty but rather to its particular affinities with printing ink. Its texture smooth and soft together is more apt than any other to receive a fine printing. This property makes China paper sought after for printing engravings."" Anatole France. The interest of French collectors in artistic posters grew at the beginning of the 1890s. Octave Uzanne to describe this fever invented the term ""affichomanie."" The poster originally popular and plastered on the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and devoted to preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising vocation and elevate it to the rank of a work of art in its own right on the same level as the deluxe illustrated book. He thus composed a prestigious collection of entirely original works by the most prominent European artists of the moment: Georges de Feure Eugène Grasset Henri Detouche Emile Berchmans Louis Rhead Gaston de Latenay Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer Gustave-Max Stevens Charles Doudelet Hans Christiansen Henri Fantin-Latour Steinlen Ibels Engels Willette Henri Meunier Evenepoël Bellery-Desfontaines Charles Léandre etc. Handsome copy.
