"Le jugement de Paris"" - Lithographie originale sur Chine - L'Estampe Moderne
Paris: Imprimerie Champenoispour CH. MassonH. Piazza 1897. Fine. Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza Paris Octobre 1897 35 x 26 cm une feuille Rare original lithograph executed by Paul Jouve for L'Estampe Moderne series number 6 published in October 1897. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on China paper with wide margins artist's signature and date in the plate publisher's dry stamp depicting a child's profile in the lower margin mounted on a sheet of laid paper with the numbered luxury edition stamp on the verso pale marginal foxing. ""It is with a pencil already sure of itself a very powerful firmness of drawing and also a very thorough knowledge that Jouve the animal artist has rendered for us this imaginatively picturesque page of monkey life"". Magnificent French monthly publication edited between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consists of original chromolithographs which unlike other reviews such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specially by each artist for the review. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late 19th century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Époque. Each delivery 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 of handsome format is superbly printed on one of the most prestigious papers: China. ""Despite all its qualities China paper too insubstantial 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 beautiful printing. This property makes China paper sought after for printing engravings."" Anatole France. The interest of French collectors in artistic posters intensified at the beginning of the 1890s. Octave Uzanne to describe this fever invented the term ""affichomania"". The poster originally popular and posted on the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and destined for preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising purpose and elevate it to the rank of a complete work of art 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 of a work of witty humor by this famous animal painter.

Sciences et lettres au Moyen-âge et à l'époque de la Renaissance
Paris: Librairie de Firmin Didot 1877. Fine. Librairie de Firmin Didot Paris 1877 20 x 29.70 cm relié First edition magnificently illustrated with 13 chromolithographs and 400 wood engravings in-text. Publisher's binding in its most luxurious version by Lenègre in half red shagreen richly decorated with a Souze plate a plate also found on the red shagreen-textured percaline boards; binding evoking the rich Renaissance bindings of Grolier type. Gilt edges. Minor rubbing at foot. Very handsome copy with some scattered foxing in the margins. The interest of the work manifests itself both through its erudition and its accessibility and readability historical anecdotes. We owe it to Paul Jacob who was a great bibliophile writer and scholar and keeper of the Arsenal library. If the entire series has become a great classic in the field it is because it successfully combines the work of publisher printer bookbinder historian illustrators and documentation and few books have ultimately achieved this amalgamation that we owe to Firmin-Didot at a time when books had become quite mediocre. One will note the presence in the sciences of the study of alchemy and occult sciences and a chapter on heraldry. Librairie de Firmin Didot hardcover

Léautaud writes to Marcel Lebarbier his publisher at Editions de la Belle Page who had published earlier that year his volume of chronicles entitled Villégiature. He asks for his author's royalties: « Je n'ai votre lettre que ce matin mercredi. On peut très bien faire un mandat carte au nom de Maurice Boissard au Mercure. Le facteur me l'apportera fort bien car on me l'enverra dans mon bureau aussitôt. Même s'il fallait toucher à la poste qui ne manque pas d'enveloppes à mon nom. Mais une chose plus simple : vous venez à Paris prochainement Vous pourrez m'apporter mes droits vous-même et je vous donnerai un reçu. Mais le mandat carte est très possible si cela va mieux dans vos arrangements. Je n'ai pas écrit à Madame Lebarbier cette affaire n'étant pas à un jour près.» ""I only received your letter this morning Wednesday. One can very well make a money order card in the name of Maurice Boissard at the Mercure. The postman will bring it to me quite well as they will send it to my office immediately. Even if one had to collect it at the post office which does not lack envelopes in my name. But something simpler: are you coming to Paris soon You could bring me my royalties yourself and I will give you a receipt. But the money order card is very possible if that works better with your arrangements. I did not write to Madame Lebarbier this matter not being urgent."" unknown

"Joueuses d'osselets"" - Lithographie originale sur Japon - L'Estampe Moderne
Paris: Imprimerie Champenoispour CH. MassonH. Piazza 1898. Fine. Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza Paris Août 1898 35 x 24 cm une feuille et une serpente Rare original color lithograph executed by Paul Leroy for L'Estampe Moderne series number 16 published in August 1898. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on Japan paper with wide margins laid paper mounted on Japan paper artist's signature in the plate publisher's dry stamp depicting a child's profile in the lower margin numbered luxury edition stamp on verso; engraving preceded by a tissue guard inscribed with the artist's name title and a poem traces of folds. Lithograph inspired by an extract from Contes persans by Rifat Oktay reproduced on the tissue guard of the print. Magnificent French monthly publication issued between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consists of original chromolithographs which unlike other magazines such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specifically by each artist for the magazine. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late 19th century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Époque. Each issue of four prints was published in 2000 copies sold for 3.50F and 100 on Japan paper offered at 10F. Henri Piazza also planned a confidential deluxe edition: 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 the most prestigious of papers: Japan paper. Thick silky satiny and pearlescent it contributes to making each page a work of art in its own right. Its quality of ink absorption and its affinity with colors also make it the ideal support for these very beautiful lithographs. The interest of French collectors in artistic posters grew in the early 1890s. Octave Uzanne to describe this fever invented the term ""affichomanie"". The poster originally popular and pasted on the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and destined for preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising purpose and elevate it to the rank of a complete work of art on the same level as the luxury 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 in the Orientalist style.

This print of fine format is superbly printed on one of the most prestigious papers: China. ""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.
