Two original artworks from the Night procession of the hundred demons

1860ref. 5628Japan: No Publisher C1860. First edition / original artwork. Two lovely pieces very similar to and likely copies of details from Itaya's monumental banner of the night procession which was created in 1860. The original banner showed a large number of the demons. These pieces each show one detail from this spectacular night. Original water colour and gouache on silk covered washi Japanese card with an applied gilt border and the silk speckled kozo washi mulberry paper surround. In the first painting two oni 鬼 Japanese supernatural demons are in the parade with a long banner or streamer on a pole. In the second image four female yÅkai or demons are engaged in a cosmetic / grooming ritual. They are busy applying makeup holding a mirror and attending to one another. The red lipstick in particular implies that these are demons. Both images are humorous in style much as Halloween takes the fear out of All Hallow's Eve. The hyakki yagyo 百鬼夜行 is the parade in which one hundred demons or yokai march through the streets at certain times of the year. As the parade passed those foolish enough to peer out of their windows risked being killed or abducted. Each painting has a silk painted panel of 16cm x 17cm on a backing of 22cm x 27cm. The original 6 metre long panel is currently hanging in the "Art Gallery of New South Wales." Another detail from the panel in an almost identical style and border is held at the Pompidou Centre Paris. Holding ref. AM 2023-361. Première édition / œuvre originale. Deux jolies pièces très proches de la bannière monumentale d'Itaya représentant la procession nocturne réalisée en 1860 et qui en sont probablement des copies de détails. La bannière originale représentait un grand nombre de démons. Ces œuvres montrent chacune un détail de cette nuit spectaculaire. Aquarelle et gouache originales sur washi papier japonais recouvert de soie avec une bordure dorée appliquée et un encadrement en washi kozo papier de mûrier moucheté de soie. Sur la première peinture deux oni 鬼 démons surnaturels japonais défilent portant une longue bannière ou une banderole sur une hampe. Dans la deuxième image quatre yÅkai ou démones sont occupées à un rituel de beauté et de toilette. Elles s'affairent à se maquiller à tenir un miroir et à s'entraider. Le rouge à lèvres rouge en particulier laisse entendre qu'il s'agit de démones. Les deux images sont de style humoristique tout comme Halloween enlève la peur de la veille de la Toussaint. Le hyakki yagyo 百鬼夜行 est le défilé au cours duquel une centaine de démons ou yokai défilent dans les rues à certaines périodes de l'année. Lorsque le défilé passait ceux qui étaient assez imprudents pour jeter un œil par la fenêtre risquaient d'être tués ou enlevés. Chaque peinture est un panneau de soie peint de 16 cm x 17 cm sur un support de 22 cm x 27 cm. Le panneau original de 6 mètres de long est actuellement exposé à l'« Art Gallery of New South Wales ». Un autre détail du panneau dans un style et avec une bordure presque identiques est conservé au Centre Pompidou à Paris. Référence : AM 2023-361. No Publisher unknown

Traité des trois Imposteurs A Treatise on the Three Imposters

1793ref. 935Suisse: De L'imprimerie Philosophique 1793. Hardcover. Near fine. A Lovely 1793 Printing of the Notorious Les Trois Imposteurs The most ubiquitous and influential of the clandestine philosophical manuscripts ANON Traité des trois Imposteurs A Treatise on the Three Imposters De L'imprimerie Philosophique En Suisse 1793. 1 blank leaf TP TP 3 168 i iii = Table des Matieres 1 blank leaf. 12mo. Later edition. NOTE: This edition contains the six notorious chapters along with three Appendices: "Sentimens sur le Traité des trois imposteurs" by B. de La Monnoye pp. 113 - 144; "Réponse à la dessertation de Mr. de La Monnoye sur le Traine des trois Imposteurs" signed J.L.R.L. and attributed to P.F. Arpe and to J. Rousset de Missy pp. 145 - 163 dated Janvier 1716; "Copie de l'article IX du tome ler seconde partie des Mémoires de littérature imprimes a la Haye ches Henry du Sauzet 1716 pp. 164 - 168. The publication history of this book has become something of a cottage industry for Enlightenment bibliographers. The authorship has been variously attributed to Lucas Faint-Glain Boulainvilliers Levier Vroesen Aymon and even to Baron dHolbach. Because of its heretical and blasphemous content Israel in Radical Enlightenment says on p. 695 that it surpasses infinitely in atheistical profanity even those works of Spinoza which are regarded as the most pernicious this text was long an underground affair never officially published showing up in slightly different hand-written versions and frequently seen incorporated with other texts. Its history is still confused by the fact that everyone involved with this work was so secretive an understandable position to take given the harsh penalties including death that could result from being associated with this text in any way. The first printed appearance the text seemed to have been just a part of a larger work La Vie et lEsprit de Spinosa which had a tinypress run in 1719 by a Dutch printer see Israel Radical Enlightenment 684 & 700. The text of Traite des trois Imposteurs was then excerpted and avidly copied by hand and circulated among the most radical free thinkers of Europe who frequently paid exorbitant prices just for the privilege of owning a copy. Beginning in 1768 printers became brave enough or government supervision lax enough that they actually began to print and surreptitiously sell various editions of the text. Offered here is a 1793 edition of this revolutionary and heretical work. The short treatise presents a direct assault on the three great monotheistic religions and challenges the integrity of their founding figures Moses Jesus and Muhammad claiming that these religions lack any substance whatsoever and owe their success in the world to the fear that underlies all of their basic assumptions and pronouncements. In contradistinction to these three frauds the text claims that Nature as the only god that is acting within the world. For more details and a scholarly discussion of this important work see Jonathan Israels Radical Enlightenment Oxford University Press Oxford 2001 especially pages 684-703. CONDITION: Very good to near fine in contemporary full leather gilt decorated spine with title in gilt to black panel. Mior cracking to hinges. Decorative endpapers. Former owners bookplate to verso of front endpaper. Small elegantly scripted annotations to the first page of the Reponse and Copie pages. A wonderful copy of this extraordinarily important text of the Radical Enlightenment. De L'imprimerie Philosophique hardcover
