L'aigle du casque.
HUGO (Victor). L'aigle du casque. Paris, Les Bibliophiles comtois, 1928. In-folio broché sous couverture éditeur, édition illustrée de 31 eaux-fortes originales par Richard Brunck de Freundeck dont la couverture. Faux-titre et page de titre tiré en rouge et noir. Superbe édition de ce poème extrait de La légende des siècles, imprimée en caractères de style gothique dessinés par l'artiste et entièrement illustrée de magnifiques compositions à mi-page et importantes lettrines, chaque page protégée par un papier de soie. Tirage limité à 140 exemplaires numérotés sur B.F.K Rives filigrané "Les bibliophiles comtois", celui-ci n°31, bien complet de la liste des sociétaires en dernière page. Richard Brunck de Freundeck est un graveur français d'origine alsacienne qui développa, des années 1925 à la fin des années 1940, un style de gravure très inspiré des maîtres allemands de la Renaissance. On trouve dans son oeuvre le goût pour la précision du détail et la parfaite maitrise technique des gravures de Dürer, Schongauer ou Grünewald. Il obtint notamment le Prix Chenavard en 1924, le Prix Duffer en 1925 et fut premier logiste pour le grand Prix de Rome en gravure en taille douce en 1922 et 1924. Il fut membre du Groupe de la Barque, créé à Strasbourg en 1930 à l’initiative du peintre Albert Thomas, revendiquant le « droit à l’imagination » dans l’art alsacien contemporain. Très proche de Robert Heitz, il est considéré par plusieurs de ses contemporains artistes et critiques comme "le plus grand graveur alsacien depuis Schongauer." Plusieurs de ses livres illustrés sont désormais conservés à la Bibliothèque nationale, à la Bibliothèque des Dominicains de Colmar et au Musée d'art moderne et contemporain de Strasbourg.

HYDE Laurence Wood Engravings. Introduction by Rockwell Kent.
SOUTHERN CROSS. Told in Wood Engravings. With a Review of Stories in Pictures from Earliest Times.
Los Angeles: Ward Ritchie. Good with no dust jacket. 1951. First Edition. Hardcover. 255 pages hundreds of woodcuts gift inscription from the author on the half title. Square duodecimo. Condition of this 1st edition is good antiquarian. The black cloth covers are a little worn some corner rubbing spine a bit faded with some pulling at the top interior clean and unmarked. This unusual book is a very early example of a graphic novel told entirely in engraved woodcut illustrations without text except for an introduction and a postscript �A review of Block Books and Stories in Woodcuts. � It shows/tells the fictionalized story of Bikini Island in the South Seas and the devastation that came to its inhabitants at the end of WWII with the advent of the nuclear age. The woodcuts are striking and graphic sharp and clear in a recognizably mid-century style quite reminiscent of Rockwell Kent who lends his name and introduction to the book. A beautiful book with a haunting too human and tragic story with a gift inscription from the author on the half-title! . ; Wood engraving; 12mo 7" - 7�" tall; Signed by Author .
