Original cloth; pictorial dust jacket. "The catalog to an international art sensation - a once in a lifetime event of Picasso's most prolific creative period - show opening at the Gagosian Gallery in London June 2010. This volume features 3 single and 4 double gatefold illustrations and includes a detachable 23-page booklet of Picasso's pencil and ink drawings. During the decade after the end of World War II Picasso began to spend more and more time in the Cote d'Azur where he began drawing on the Mediterranean sources that had inspired him in earlier years. Picasso's return to the south marked a return to a family life as well - which in turn inspired him in the studio. In the 1950s his sculpture work evolved and he expanded into ceramics lithography printing and graphic design techniques. This latest Picasso exhibition from the Gagosian Gallery features a more private side to these prolific years - a dazzling coming together paintings sculptures prints and ceramics - many provided by of the pieces by Picasso's grandson Bernard Ruiz-Picasso and curated by Mr. Ruiz-Picasso and Picasso's acclaimed biographer Sir John Richardson" the publisher.

Spines just slightly and uniformly darkened text lightly washed and pressed no doubt at the time of binding half a dozen expert marginal paper repairs leaves a shade less than bright isolated light foxing or trivial stain but still quite a fine set--clean and pleasing internally in lustrous virtually unworn bindings. This is an attractively bound copy of a work widely considered the first English novel with all four volumes in their first state. The story of a virtuous servant girl who resists the unwanted attention of her employer's son until marriage is offered "Pamela" was first issued in November 1740 as a complete novel in two volumes. The tale was a runaway success going to five editions in 1741 and spawning so many imitations parodies and unauthorized continuations that Richardson was compelled to wrest the narrative back under his own control by writing two additional volumes. The second part of the work features "Pamela" as the exemplary wife of a country gentleman winning over snobs and winning back her straying spouse. Day describes the plucky maid-turned-lady as "the first great character creation of English prose fiction" wryly observing "as much as we may dislike her prudential morality we must recognize here a complete human being." And even the book's moralizing is far more than just palatable: as Day notes Alexander Pope after staying up all night to read the novel declared "it will do more good than a great many of the new sermons." Sets with all four volumes in the first state are rarely seen in the marketplace and are frequently in unpleasant condition when they are found. A well-preserved set of firsts in uniform bindings by a premier workshop is especially agreeable. Printed for C. Rivington and J. Osborn [vols. III-IV printed for S. Richardson and sold by C.

1782réf. 298728London: J. Stockdale; R. Faulder 1782. First Edition. Half Leather. Very Good binding. 8vo.; in an attractive later binding of red half-goat over marbled boards with raised bands with morocco label lettered vertically; with marbled endpapers; 2 49 1 pages.~~A note on this rather interesting binding: we assume that the binder was charged with binding a group of different books to a uniform size -- the title page is trimmed and mounted and all the other leaves are folded neatly to fit the bottom edge and then the leading edge over it. Rather astonishing actually.~~This is Ritson’s first book in which he attacks Thomas Warton’s History of English Poetry in such vitriolic tones -- Warton is a pretender a cheater and a liar -- as to cause quite a contretemps in late 18th century English literary circles. One assumes this actually pleased Ritson as he went on the next year to attack Samuel Johnson and George Steevens. Eventually Ritson went complete mad barricading himself in his rooms at Gray’s Inn and setting fire to a pile of manuscripts. Very Good binding. J. Stockdale; R. Faulder unknown books

"This publication explores Picasso's portrayals of life with Gilot and their young family in the decade they spent together. Françoise Gilot was a young budding painter when she met Picasso by chance at a café in 1943. The subsequent ten years spent together was a time of transformation in Picasso's paintings that coincided with revolutionary inventions in lithography sculpture and ceramics. Picasso: L'Epoque Françoise presents for the first time several of Gilot's paintings and drawings from the period alongside Picasso's when the young painter was maturing while the elder continued to change the face of modern art. The fully illustrated catalogue includes a historic dialogue between Richardson and Gilot celebrating Picasso's innovation in every medium during the postwar years of renewal" the publisher.

2011réf. 411098New York: Gagosian Gallery 2011. First edition. New in shrinkwrap. 12.5 x 9.5 inches. 300 pages. Profusely illustrated in color. Original cloth; pictorial dust jacket. "Pablo Picasso's endless fascination with his lover's character and form led to radical shifts in his conception of portraiture and the mystical metamorphoses that the act of creation entails. Picasso's secretive love affair with Marie-Therese Walter which began in 1927 inspired a radical shift in his conception of portraiture. The exhibition and catalogue present Marie-Therese as a primary vehicle for his experimentation during the period including several works never before seen in the United States as well as previously unpublished personal letters and photographs. Picasso and Marie-Therese sheds new light on the interpretation of one of the most creative relationships in Picasso's rich and varied oeuvre" the publisher. Gagosian Gallery unknown books
