Thin brown boards with bw tipped in illustration white text. 305 pp. Some color illustrations. "The evocative power of Delacroix's intimate and artistic encounter with Morocco is not due to possible stories of tumultuous trips in the manner of Alexandre Dumas or Theophile Gautier. The seduction that Delacroix's works executed in Morocco or conceived during his life in memory of his stay in the Cherifian Kingdom reveal in a singular way the sensitive and creative characteristic of which he has lived these few months. Hardly landed in Tangier the painter had the feeling of entering this Orient of which he had dreamed so much." Text is in French. Academie du Royaume du Maroc hardcover books

1865ref. 14621Paris: Published by A. Cadart et Luquet 79 rue de Richelieu 1865. Etching. Printed on watermarked aqua-fortistes laid paper. State i/iii before letters with artist's name and date engraved in the upper left corner of plate. Monogram in upper right corner of plate. Full sheet in excellent condition. Image size: 7 7/8 x 6 1/6 inches. This stunning image is a rich proof impression of Delacroix's famous print "Juive d'Alger." In early 1832 Delacroix visited North Africa. He accompanied his friend the Count de Mornay on his good-will mission to the Sultan of Morocco Abd-er-Rahman II. This experience had a drastic influence on his art introducing an edge of brilliant realism into his majestic paintings and bold engravings. He filled countless sketchbooks with drawings and observations of Arab life and gathered a wealth of ideas that served him for the rest of his life. This sumptuous etching is inspired by Delacroix's travels in North Africa and is considered one of his greatest prints. Assigned to the delegation as dragoman was Abraham-Ben-Chimol of Tangiers a Jew who introduced Delacroix to his wife Saada and daughter. Delacroix was greatly influenced by this encounter and he did a number of images depicting young Jewish women in simple interiors. This breathtaking image depicts a young Jewish woman in traditional dress seated in a simple room; she is accompanied by an Algerian woman who is seated on the floor beside her. The leader of the French Romantic movement Delacroix is widely considered to be one of the greatest French painters in history but he is also one the most hailed printmakers of the modern age. The simple lines and bold textures of this monumental print delineate Delacroix's genius and distinguish him as a true master of his art. This is an exceptional early impression of this important print executed before the published title and publication details were added. Included in one of the first collections of the Society de Aqua-Fortistes publications by Cadart this print is extremely rare in this early state. With its rich dark tones and fresh details this is a magnificent example of Delacroix's work and a true collector's item. Between 1862 and 1866 the Societe des Aqua-Fortistes produced a five-volume collection of artists' etchings entitled "Eaux-Fortes Modernes." Printed on laid paper made especially for the series this outstanding collection is one of the seminal publications to spring out of the etching revival in France. The Societe des Aqua-Fortistes was the French equivalent of the Etching Club in England and similarly it aimed to produce a collection of high quality etchings by the leading artists of the period. Like the Etching Club the Societe des Aqua-Fortistes sought to raise the prestige of the medium from a reproductive technique to a fine art. Although the etching revival began somewhat earlier in England the French movement exerted a far greater influence on the medium and included a wider range of prominent artists. The Barbizon painters were among the earliest French artists to participate in the etching revival and their superb prints helped raise the medium to new heights of genius. This unique publication which included works by Manet Corot and Delacroix is an outstanding example of fine art printing at its best Delteil Le Peintre-Gravure Illustre vol.
