Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza | Paris (Février 1899) | 23.50 x 34.50 cm | une feuille et une serpente
Rare lithographie originale en couleurs, exécutée par Raphaël Collin pour L'Estampe Moderne, série numéro 22 publiée en février 1899. Une des50 épreuves de grand luxe tirées sur Japon à grandes marges, signature de l'artiste dans la planche, timbre à sec de l'éditeur représentant un profil d'enfant en marge inférieure, tampon numéroté du tirage de luxe au dos ; gravure précédée d'une serpente légendée du nom de l'artiste, du titre, et d'un poème. Lithographie inspirée du poème Partenzade Francis Vièlé-Griffin, reproduit sur la serpente de l'estampe. Magnifique publication mensuelle française éditée entre mai 1897 et avril 1899, L'Estampe moderne se constitue de chromolithographies inédites qui, contrairement à d'autres revues comme Les Maîtres de l'Affiche et tel qu'il est stipulé sur les serpentes, ont été réalisées spécialement par chaque artiste pour la revue. Ce sont ainsi 100 estampes qui paraissent au total, couvrant les courants artistiques majeurs de la fin du XIXème siècle: Symbolisme, Art Nouveau, Préraphaélites, Orientalistes et Belle Époque. Chaque livraison de quatre estampes est tirée à 2000 exemplaires vendus 3,50F et 100 sur papier Japon proposés à 10F. Henri Piazza prévoit également un tirage confidentiel de très grand luxe: 50 exemplaires sur Japon à grandes marges et 50 en noir sur Chine au prix considérable de 30F. Cette estampe d'un beau format est superbement imprimée sur le plus prestigieux des papiers: le Japon. Epais, soyeux, satiné et nacré, il contribue à faire de chaque page une uvre à part entière. Sa qualité d'absorption de l'encre et son affinité avec les couleurs en font également le support idéal de ces très belles lithographies. L'intérêt des collectionneurs français pour les affiches artistiques s'amplifie au début des années 1890. Octave Uzanne, pour qualifier cette fièvre invente le terme d'«affichomanie». L'affiche, à l'origine populaire et placardée dans les rues de la capitale, devient alors objet d'art et son support éphémère se fait précieux et voué à la conservation. Piazza décide de soustraire l'affiche à sa vocation publicitaire et de l'élever au rang d'uvre d'art à part entière au même titre que le livre illustré de luxe. Il compose ainsi une collection prestigieuse d'uvres entièrement originales, par les artistes européens les plus en vue du 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. Bel exemplaire. - Photographies et détails sur www.Edition-Originale.com -
