1904réf. Pro4PROUST Jeanne WEIL 1849-1905 5th December 1904 original period film print. Round photography 159 cm diameter mounted on thick paper frame in the photographer's name.Tiny spot on lower margin of the mounting small stainStamp on verso from collection Suzy Mante-Proust collection One of Jeanne Weil Proust's last portraits less than a year before her death This portrait was taken on December 5th 1904. At this time aged 56 years old Proust's mother has been a widow for a year. The translation of his son's The Bible of Amiens was published that same year. She died of nephritis a year later on September 26 1905. Nadar did process her portrait and removed the shadows and various flaws on her face. Michel Schneider notes that the narrator's mother in the Search is obviously inspired by the mother of the author himself. Jeanne Proust was born Jeanne Weil in 1849 from a Jewish family of the enlightened bourgeoisie. Much has been said about the intellectual complicity that united her with elder son. Marcel Proust who during his mother's lifetime wrote only beautifulthings in the spirit of the time Pleasures and Days will not become the novelist of the Search until after the death his mother an event that has somehow freed his creation. In the novel the grief he felt at his death is shifted to that of the grandmother and that of Albertine. In the Search Mom doesn't die she is also mentioned more than 500 times.

2002réf. 9651New York: Vincent FitzGerald & Co. 2002. One of 20 copies all on special paper handmade by Paul Wong at Dieu Donne Papermill each signed and numbered on the colophon by Susan Weil. The artist has titled signed numbered and dated each print as well at the bottom in pencil. Page size: 16 x 16 inches; 6 images plus colophon. Housed in orange silk custom-made clamshell box with inset of blueprint image by the artist of broken glasses printed in white on blue fabric box made by Priscilla Spitler at Hands on Bookbinding new. The colophon was printed by Daniel Keleher at Wild Carrot Letterpress. Vincent FitzGerald & Company did the collage work. The prints are described by the publisher as follows: 1 blueprint image on cover; 2 "Umbrella" photograph which puts the umbrella structure directly on the paper; 3 "Secrets" A collaged blueprint. These private words are layered then cut in strips and woven. The back of the strips are water colored red reflecting slightly. 4 "Grace's Lace" The lace squares are treated with chemicals for a brown print and developed with ultraviolet light. This is mounted on handmade paper which has been water colored pale gray. 5 "Catenary" This is a blueprint collage. The two blueprint hands hold a copper string. The handmade paper is water colored pale green. 6 "Woven Wineglasses" This is a photograph collage. Several direct wineglass images are simply woven into a box form making this study of water and shadows into an abstraction. 7 "Haphazard" This is a formal blue print configuration of glass rectangles. The haphazard quality comes from the unpredictability of the beautiful breaks in the glass. Susan Weil returns to a medium she used in the late 1940's and early 1950's with her then husband Robert Rauschenberg at Black Mountain College where they had studied with Josef Albers. Carla Schulz-Hoffman notes in her article on Susan Weil in the exhibition catalogue MIND'S EYE 1989 the origins of this art form. In subsequent visits to Black Mountain they began experimenting with blueprint paper. Rauschenberg writes "Sue and I experimented with light-sensitive papers partly because of their low cost.". Schulz-Hoffman writes "In 1951 their son Christopher was born and in that same year 'Life' magazine published a three page article including reproductions of their spectacular 'Blueprints'. Similar to Man Ray's rayographs the blueprints used blueprint-paper and a sunray lamp to capture life-sized silhouettes." She notes "For this reason it is not always possible to credit one particular individual with the discovery of innovations which would prove decisive in precipitating the fall of Abstract Expressionism and in shaping the course which the entire New York School would eventually take. Although many of the results of Weil's productive collaborations with Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns cannot be attributed exclusively to one or another of these artists nevertheless a typically one-sided art historical scholarship tends to ignore Weil or consign her a marginal role.". As well as blueprint images Weil began to use collage in an especially creative way. Her complete mastery of these techniques can be seen in these images. Vincent FitzGerald & Co. unknown books
