1967Best.-Nr. AMO-3557Très belle peinture originale gouache et aquarelle signée par Mark Miller Grand format 35,7 x 24 cm environ sur carton de même dimensions Signé au crayon dans le dessin en bas Sujet : homme et deux femmes scène d'intérieur Dessin original exécuté pour un roman-photos intitulé "Voyage pour un meurtre" publié dans le programme TV Télé Poche n°84 (numéro du 16 août 1967 - deuxième année de parution de ce périodique pour la télévision) Annotations en marge supérieure du dessin et au verso (voir photos). Très beau dessin par un maître du genre. Mark Miller, born Marshall Dawson Miller, was an internationally renowned illustrator whose work was published in most of the world. His life and career took him from Oklahoma to Hollywood to New York and Europe. Born in Eldorado, Oklahoma on Jan. 2, 1919, Miller grew up on a cotton farm, studied art at the University of Oklahoma (where he took the name Mark) and then moved to Los Angeles where he attended the Chouinard Art Institute and later got his start as a costume designer for 20th Century Fox in Hollywood. After WW II, he moved to New York where he had a had a long career as an artist that culminated in the 1950s and 60s when he was an illustrator for the Saturday Evening Post and other leading magazines like Colliers, Good Housekeeping, McCall’s, Redbook, Cosmopolitan and many magazines throughout Europe, South America and Australia. In describing the humble beginnings of his career, Miller has said, “My choice of an art career did not have the enthusiastic support of my conservative family back in OK. From their point of view, it was clearly my duty as the eldest son to help run the family farms, and they tolerated my errant pursuit of art only in the certainty that it would become as clear to me as it was to them that I couldn’t make a living at it.

FIRST EDITION. 220 x 130 mm. 8 5/8 x 5 1/8". 2 p.l. ii v-xix 1 411 1 pp. Agreeable contemporary black morocco covers with an elaborate border in gilt and blind of numerous straight and decorative rules and scrolling foliate cornerpieces raised bands gilt in compartments with a central ornament in blind turn-ins tooled in gilt all edges gilt. Carefully rebacked retaining original spine hinges neatly reinforced with buckram. WITH A FORE-EDGE PAINTING DEPICTING A LANDSCAPE WITH A VERY LARGE CASTLE AND LAKE. With 13 pages of charts. Corners bumped and exposed a handful of scratches to the front cover; occasional spots and soiling internally other trivial defects but still quite a good copy the bulk of the text extremely clean and fresh with a well-preserved fore-edge painting. This is a pleasing copy with an attractive fore-edge painting of the final work of Scottish mathematician and economist Robert Hamilton 1743-1829. A professor at the University of Aberdeen and one of the founders of Edinburgh's Royal Society Hamilton wrote this work of political economy shortly before his passing and it was published posthumously. It treats of the relationship between economic principles and the development of social life and is considered perhaps second in importance only to his "Essay on the National Debt" issued in 1813. The fore-edge painting depicts a serene landscape with sailboat gliding across a smooth lake in front of a castle and tree-studded hills. The artist has rendered the details with subtlety for example the castle is faintly reflected in the lake and the scene as a whole is brigher and richer in color than might be expected.
