1927ref. 145168Paris: Le livre du bibliophile 1927. Casanova's exploits beautifully illustrated First edition thus first printing number 226 of 414 copies printed on velin d'arches paper of a total print run of 500. The text is extracted from Casanova's memoirs describing his relationship with "M.M." a nun from the convent at Murano. This edition is beautifully illustrated by Gerda Wegener likely using her wife Lili Elbe as a model. Gerda Wegener 1886-1940 was a Danish artist working in art deco and art nouveau styles known for her eroticized depictions of women her pioneering reconsideration of the female gaze in portraiture and her stunningly decadent backgrounds which are well-exemplified here. In 1925 Wegener represented France at the world exhibition in Paris where she was awarded two gold and one bronze medals. Wegener was married to fellow artist Lili Elbe having met at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. The two lived in Paris from 1912 where Elbe was one of Wegener's most frequent models. Elbe is also known for being one of the first documented recipients of gender affirming surgery and as the subject of the novel The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff and 2015 film of the same name. 2 vols quarto. Text in French. With 8 full-page colour etchings by Andre Lambert after Wegener's watercolours with tissue guards and wood engraved headpieces initials and vignettes by G. Aubert printed in sepia after her designs. Original plain paper wrappers titles to spines and front covers in black and red edges untrimmed. With the original glassine wrappers. Slight chips to spine ends gatherings a little fragile a near-fine copy in the faintly toned glassine jackets. unknown
1922ref. 194825London: The Casanova Society 1922. The publishing industry's "l'Affaire Casanova" Limited edition this set signed and dated by the translator on the front free endpaper of Volume 1 "Arthur Machen. February 4th 1926". This set is out-of-series from a limited edition of 1000 copies previously revised by the translator and cult fantasy author Machen and now including an additional two chapters maps of Casanova's itineraries and a new translator's preface. The Casanova Society imprint was established to produce this handsome edition of the great libertine's autobiography and it continued to release luxurious reprints until 1926. Its publisher John Rodker 1894-1955 was like Casanova an amorous man and his turbulent venture was satirized in Wyndham Lewis's Apes of God 1930. Rodker published the first British edition of Ulysses in the same year he founded the Casanova Society to issue salacious literary classics in sumptuous editions. He "knew the literature; he had taste and judgement and a fine flair for producing a handsome volume" Warburg p. 106. Casanova's autobiography is a notably authentic source for the customs and norms of 18th-century European social life and his name remains synonymous with the art of seduction. Machen's translation was first published in 1894. 12 vols quarto. Frontispieces of which 4 folding 17 maps of Casanova's itineraries at end of vol. 12. Title pages with floral border. Original white quarter parchment spines lettered in black and white on black ground blue sides top edges gilt others untrimmed.

Aubert and 10 coloured etchings hors-texte by André Lambert all after original watercolours by Gerda Wegener with an extra suite in black and yellow; original wrappers with covers ink inscription to top left corner of cover some wear to edges but internally fine. Gerda Wegener 1886 1940 was a Danish illustrator and painter best known for her erotic works. After moving to Paris in 1912 she became highly successful both as a painter and as illustrator for Vogue La Vie Parisienne and Fantasio. Her work comes with a sensational backstory: Gerda's husband Einar also a successful artist posed as a model for many of her works dressed in women's clothing and later underwent the world's first sex-change operation. The actress Alicia Vikander won an Oscar for her portrait of Gerda in the recent film adaptation of this story Tom Hooper's The Danish Girl.

1926ref. 11004Paris: Chez l’artiste 16 rue Cassini 1926. 2 volumes. No. 371 of 450 printed on papier vergé d’Arches but this a rare hand-coloured copy. 33 engravings by Sylvain Sauvage engraved in collaboration with Emile-Henri Feltesse including an engraving on each wrapper all expertly hand-coloured in gouache. Tall thin 8vo. loose in the original wrappers each volume with its own maroon cloth backed chemise and both in the matching maroon cloth edged slipcase. Slipcase and chemises with a little wear or rubbing at edges a little darkening to the wrappers but otherwise very good.Sylvain Sauvage 1888-1948 whose real name was Felix Roy was an illustrator and engraver who published his own artist’s books with the imprint of his home in Paris as well as creating illustrations for other publishers. Sauvage had originally intended to produce illustrations to the whole of the memoirs of Casanova but the task was too great so he settled on the erotic story of Casanova and the Nun of Murano - hence it being a singular adventure. His first version was a large paper edition of 75 copies being a portfolio of 20 full page plates and 13 smaller ones which was published in 1920 and quickly sold. In 1924 he produced another portfolio containing 50 watercolours illustrating Casanova’s memoirs. Eventually in 1926 this two volume edition as the first in ‘La rose mal defendue’ The Poorly Protected Rose series. The illustrations included all the original plates in their black and white version. A very few hand-coloured copies exist as here thought to have been coloured by Sauvage for special clients. These have certainly been done by a professional sensitive hand. Carteret IV 92 An expertly hand-coloured copy possibly by Sauvage himself Chez l’artiste, 16, rue Cassini hardcover
1833ref. ABC_50290Paris 1833. 8vo. Paulin Contemporary gold-tooled quarter calf with the title author and volume number lettered in gold on the spine marbled paper boards green marbled endpapers brown sprinkled edges. The set is housed in two blue marbled paper slipcases. 10 volumes. 4 427 3; 4 422 2; 4 432 4 480; 4 455 1 blank; 4 468; 4 475 1; 4 455 1 blank 4 426; 4 394 pp. First complete French edition of Giacomo Casanova's 1725-1798 Mémoires comprising 10 volumes. The original French manuscripts were acquired in 1821 by the German publisher Friedrich Arnold Brockhaus 1772-1823 who first published an expurgated German translation prepared by Willem von Schütz 1776-1847 between 1822 and 1828. Its success prompted a French retranslation from the German by Victor Tournachon 1771-1837 published in 14 volumes between 1825 and 1828.The Brockhaus firm subsequently undertook a French-language edition based on the original manuscripts revised and rewritten by Jean Laforgue 1782-1852. The first four volumes appeared in 1826-1827 but publication was then delayed by censorship with the next four volumes published in 1832 and the final four only in 1838.During these delays the Parisian publisher Paulin published a rival edition. After reprinting the first eight Laforgue volumes in 1833 he commissioned Philippe Busoni 1804-1883 to complete the work. Their two concluding volumes published in 1837 contain material not found in the Laforgue text and may derive from a free combination of the Schütz translation and earlier French adaptations. The 9th volume bore the imprint Paulin Libraire-Éditeur Rue de Seine 33. 1837 and the tenth volume Chez E.-B. Delanchy Imprimeur Rue du Faubourg-Montmartre 11. 1837.The Mémoires are celebrated not only as an extraordinary autobiography but also as a rich historical and cultural record of 18th-century Europe. Casanova recounts his travels amorous adventures encounters with royalty intellectuals and artists as well as his experiences in prisons courts and salons. The work combines vivid storytelling with keen observation offering a unique window into the social political and cultural life of the Enlightenment. This edition as the first complete French version preserves the full scope of Casanovas narrative and remains a cornerstone for both literary and historical study.Volume 10 bears a pencil ownership inscription on the verso of the second flyleaf reading Monsuur Dehor a modern manuscript volume number label mounted on the front pastedown of each volume The upper spines of volumes 1 and 5 are slightly rubbed brown stains on some of the boards. The leaves are somewhat foxed p. 455 of volume 5 has been reinforced pp. 82-88 of volume 6 show some brown staining consistent with the quality of the paper.
