182647 (instead of 55) lithographs (c. 610 x 485 to 480 x 385 mm). In contemp. cloth portfolio with ties. Large folio (630 x 490 mm). "Privately printed at the command of Emperor Franz I and published in a very small press run, not available to the common public [...] Shows views, interiors, decorations, etc. [...] The plates are not captioned or numbered" (cf. Nebehay/W.). Drawn by Jakob Alt, Johann Rupp, Carl Bschor, and Albert von Radmannsdorf. - Slight fingerstaining and foxing (usually confined to margins); some small tears. Portfolio is rather severly rubbed. Wants nos. 1, 4-6, 15-17, and 20. The view of the castle from the South is a lithograph by Jakob von Alt, not an anonymous etching as in the Albertina copy. No. 7 ("Gothische Brücke") is a trial print from the collection of the great Austrian otologist Adam Politzer (1835-1920), whose collection was sold by Schwarz in 1922 (cf. Lugt 2037 and 2741). "Il collectionnait depuis 1870 environ, sans système bien défini, mais seulement d'après son goût artistique [...] L' amateur a consacré une attention spéciale à la lithographie, de ses debuts à l'année 1880" (Lugt, p. 513). Nebehay/Wagner 359. H. Schwarz (Anfänge der Lithographie in Österr.) 76.
Original watercoloured pen-and-ink drawing within ruled ink borders, sheet size 347 x 275 mm. Matted (510 x 400 mm). Charming, early watercoloured drawing of a Neapolitan street vendor of maccaroni. Unsigned and undated, but attributable by its style to the Neapolitan artist active ca. 1820 who signed some of his works "Raimo". - Margins a little dust-stained, but very attractive.
325 x 280 mm. Ink and wash on drawing cardboard. Framed and glazed. This beautiful study, most likely for a lithograph, can be attributed to Carle Vernet, the youngest son of the painter Claude-Joseph Vernet. The monumental central motif of an Arabian cavalier on a dark Arabian stallion is elaborately executed, whereas the backdrop of a tent and a battle scene remain sketchy. - A passionate horseman himself, Carle Vernet is most famous for his cavalry scenes and other equestrian motifs. - Trimmed on the upper margin. Abrasions throughout, mostly affecting the background.
52,1 x 39 cm. Copperprint engraving on paper (two conjoined sheets). Beautiful copy of the famous south-west view of the Strasbourg Cathedral by Daniel Specklin from 1566. Some minor changes to the original print concern small architectural changes to the building itself, such as the helmet of the ridge turret, the staffage figures, and the monumental cartouche with the text, marking the transition from late Renaissance to early Baroque ornaments. The German text offers a partly legendary building history of the famous north tower. An additional text directly underneath the seam of the two sheets is a dedication to the dignitaries of the city: “Nobilissimis, amplissimis, prudentissimis Dominis, D. D. Praetoribus, Consulibus, Reliquisq[ue] inclusae Argentinae Senatoribus, Patribus Patriae, Patriam hanc turrim humiliter offert, consecrat, dedicat Isaac Brunn Argentine(n)sis chalkiographos A(nn)o 1615”. - Born in Strasbourg, Isaac Brun (1596-1669) worked primarily as a portraitist and book illustrator. - Upper margin somewhat brittle and with several tears, one larger tear showing traces of unprofessional restoration. Right border of the cartouche chafed. With a pinch fold affecting the dedication and a restored tear affecting the image in the lower right margin. Trimmed on the upper and lower margins, some browning. Thieme/Becker V, 121 (biography). Drugulin I, 291.
Oblong 8vo. (170 x 106 mm). In pencil. Charming page from a notebook showing sketches of flowers and shadings with indications of colours: "bleu bleu garance vert bleu foncé vert jaune transparent". The highly stylized petals and the colours indicated suggest Dufy's beautiful post-impressionist watercolour flower bouquets. - On the verso, a sketch of a marine horizon with a ship and some buildings on the shore. Minimal browning.
98 Zeichnungen und Entwürfe auf 86 (und einem einmontierten) Bll. Flexibler Perkalinband. 8vo. Mit zahlreichen Beilagen (s. u.). Originelles Skizzen- und Notizbuch des Wiener Malers, der sowohl Entwürfe und Gedanken wie auch Bilder seines Alltags festhält, gelegentlich auch kleine Beobachtungen und Notizen ("Weißes Packpap. 80 m² Kleister"). Einige der Zeichnungen sind der Wiener Schule des phantastischen Realismus zuzuordnen, andere sind Portraits (wie das von "Christl 28. 7. 64 Am Ziegelteich"), manche auch Karikaturen. Dazwischen eingestreut sind an einigen Stellen auch kleine Gedichte, etwa der "Chor der alten Jungfern!": "Nur nichts riskieren / Nur nichts verlieren / Und sich für nichts und / Niemand interessieren / Dann kann uns nichts passieren! / Nur nichts vergeben / Um Gottes Willen nur nicht "leben" / Und so werden wir langsam alt / Und haben noch niemals draufgezahlt! / Wir haben uns keinen angelacht / Kein Mann hat uns ein Kind gemacht / Wir blieben unberührt / Und unverführt! / Juchhei!". - Hans Hanko war kaufmännischer Angestellter, wurde später Polizist und bildete sich autodidaktisch zum Maler. "Er malte anfänglich vorwiegend expressionistisch. Nach 1960 Hinwendung zur phantastischen Kunst. Erstmals im Jahre 1962 nahm er in der Galerie zur Silbernen Rose an einer Ausstellung von Künstlern der Wiener Schule des phantastischen Realismus teil" (Fuchs 2, K 42). - Die Beilagen umfassen zwei eh. Briefe mit U. aus dem Jahre 1980 (zusammen 7 SS. auf 4 Bll., 4to), in denen er von einem Arbeitsaufenthalt in der Schweiz berichtet, einen Brief einer Buchhandlung, die Hankos Frau Margarete ihre Kündigung mitteilt, einen Notizzettel aus dem Jahre 1981, drei private Photographien und 96 Photographien, die seine Arbeiten und einmal ihn bei der Arbeit zeigen.

1924- s.d. (1924), 93x78mm, autre. - Tehura. Original proof engraved after the painting "Merahi Metua no Tehamana". Intermediate state for Noa Noa [between 1904 & 1924] | 9,3 x 7,8 cm | one sheet Original proof, likely unique, of this intermediate state of "Tehura", wood drawn and engraved after Paul Gaughin's painting "Merahi Metua no Tehamana" by George-Daniel de Monfreid. Print on fine cream laid paper, annotation by the artist in the left-hand margin. The definitive wood served as the head of chapter VI, "Le Conteur parle", page 81 of the true first edition of Noa Noa published by Crès in 1924, the first illustrated work from Paul Gauguin and a majestic tribute to one of the precursors of modern art. A most important and very first woodcut of Gauguin's masterpiece, engraved by his closest friend and executor, artist George-Daniel de Monfreid, to whom Gauguin offered the painting after two unsuccessful exhibitions. Likely unique proof, part of 17 known test prints from the project to publish prematurely Noa Noa, all made on various fine papers and annotated by the artist. Precious woodcut after Gauguin's masterpiece Merahi metua no Tehamana, showing the painter's wife, his main tahitian model. It is from the original illustrated manuscript of Noa Noa, brought back from Tahiti by Segalen on the artist's death in 1903, that Monfreid began producing this fundamental work from as early as 1904. This is the second version of this "to read and look at" notebook. The first manuscript, written on the return of his first voyage and entrusted by Gauguin to Charles Morice in 1893, responded to a different project. Gauguin had composed only the text, interspersed with blank pages for Morice's poems. But after several years without news, Morice preferred to publish a version entirely rewritten by himself in 1901. Gauguin, therefore, copied his manuscript and illustrated it during his second stay in Polynesia, with sketches, watercolors and collages. This album, that the artist enriched and safely preserved until his death, is preserved today at the Musée d'Orsay. It is, therefore, from this manuscript, the only one illustrated, that Monfreid composed the edition of Gauguin's Noa Noa. However, although Monfreid's publication was forward, it took more than twenty years to complete, in part due to a copyright dispute with Charles Morice who wanted to be co-author of the forthcoming edition and whose poems would eventually be preserved. The result of several years of reflection and work, the 1924 edition is both faithful to the watercolors and woodcut engravings illustrating the precious manuscript, and to the whole of Gauguin's Tahitian work, who died in indifference. Monfreid thus engraves several drawings from the original notebook and enriches it with woodcuts made from other works of which he is the custodian. Some of these compositions combine several paintings, while scrupulously respecting the artist's line, transforming the work into a true journey through the painter's works. The very choice of using wood engraving is a tribute to this technique prized by Gauguin, who, in Pont-Aven, produced 10 woodcuts to illustrate his manuscript between his two Polynesian stays. The intermediate woodcuts, until then unknown, testify to the slow work of composition to restore the artistic richness of Gauguin's work by his most faithful artistic companion and first champion: "When I saw Gauguin for the first time, I was greatly disconcerted by the details of art that radiated from his works as well as from the conversations of this extraordinary man... You immediately felt that he was the Master" (in L'Hermitage, 1903).

255 x 180 mm. Copperprint engraving, cut, hand-coloured and dressed with several fabric fragments, some with metallic threads, metallic lace details, and ground glass. Stitched at an early date to a ruled paper mount. Later giltwood frame and glazing with framer’s label ("Collard Doreur sur bois. Versailles’", ca. 1830-40). Striking and well-preserved example of a so-called "dressed print", based on a devotional engraving of Mary Magdalene by the German engraver and publisher Martin Engelbrecht (1684-1756), dating to the mid-18th century. The materials and style of the adornments point to the 18th century, though a later reuse of older fabrics cannot be ruled out. As often, the dressing has been ingeniously applied both under and over the surface of the original engraving. The penitent Mary Magdalene has been modified by being pasted onto glazed paper, producing a dramatic black-sky background, her body is embellished with three different brocade fabrics (two with metallic threads), and the print was further enhanced with hand-colouring, some metallic lace and ground glass. The saint is characterized by her traditional attributes of a cross, a book, a myrrh jar, a straw mat, and a skull, while her left foot rests on a globe or orb. The precious clothes that were added to Mary Magdalene, who is usually just covered by her long open hair as an expression of her ascetism and atonement, almost transforms her into a celestial Mary, thus altering the meaning of the engraving. - The fashion for dressing prints existed probably from the beginning of printed illustrations themselves, though it was a widespread, predominantly female recreation, especially in nunneries and convents, during the 17th and 18th centuries. Dressed prints were often overlooked by art historians and, due to their fragile nature, are rarely preserved in such good condition.
4to. 244 (instead of 248) partly numbered engraved plates. Slightly later full calf with giltstamped red title label to sparsely gilt spine. Very rare edition of "one of the most splendidly illustrated devotional books of the period" (Jantz), containing only the engraved plates and neither the text nor the music. The "Geistreiche Gesänge und Lieder auf alle Sonntags-Evangelien und Episteln so in dem Christlichen Jahre enthalten seyn [...]" were first issued in 1725-26, which saw a reissue under the title "Das Christliche Jahr" in 1735. This title is stamped on the spine label of this copy, suggesting that the present copy is of this latter edition. The plates "represent scenes from biblical history and the lives of the saints [...] exhibit[ing] a high point of Baroque illustration" (Faber du Faur) and are mostly presented within ornamental frames decorated by emblematic vignettes. - Wants title-page. Later handwritten bibliographical note in ink to flyleaf. Hinges a little worn, small flaw at the top margin of the plate showing St. Theresa (not touching image), but otherwise very well preserved. From the library of the Viennese collector Werner Habel, with his ownership stamp to flyleaf. Faber du Faur 1146. Jantz 2379. Bäumker III, 56, 138. Wolffheim 2202. Seebass 301.

NUMBER ONE OF ONLY TEN SETS OF THIS OUTSTANDING PORTFOLIO OF EXPRESSIONIST ETCHINGS, WITH MANY OF THE ETCHINGS PRINTED ON OLD JAPANESE PAPER. In 1918 German novelist Hans Bethge wrote "Satuila oder vom Zauber der Suedsee" ("Satuila or the Enchantment of the South Sea"), the story of a young woman in Samoa. It is a sensual, escapist tale: the situation in Germany was quite terrible after the defeat in WWI, and there was great demand for escapism. This novel was a hit, and a deluxe edition, with 6 original etchings by German Expressionist artist Georg Alexander Mathey, was published in Berlin in 1921. The etchings are extremely beautiful, perfectly capturing the lush sensuality of the landscape and the unabashed sexuality of the characters (similar to the depictions of Gypsies by Otto Mueller, from about the same time). This edition of the novel was limited to 250 copies. Aside from the book edition, 10 sets of the etchings were printed, with large margins. In these 10 sets, each of the etchings is signed and numbered by the artist. I OFFER ONE OF THESE 10 SETS: SET NUMBER 1, with each of the etchings numbered 1/10 and signed in pencil by the artist. FOUR OF THE SIX ETCHINGS IN THIS SET ARE PRINTED ON OLD JAPANESE PAPER, AND ARE PERHAPS UNIQUE AS SUCH. Additionally, there is a signed working proof of an early version of one of the etchings, also printed on old Japanese paper. This proof is probably unique, as the etching was never published. The set is as it was issued. Each etching (sheet size 8 1/2 x 7 inches--22 x 18 cm) is individually matted, and the original parchment-backed cloth portfolio case (16 1/2 x 13 inches--42 x 33 cm). There is a little light wear to the portfolio, but the etchings are fine and bright. An important and extremely rare item (and perhaps the only German Expressionist depictions of the South Pacific!)
Each puzzle measures 195 x 245 mm. Each puzzle with an engraved plate mounted on thin wood, coloured by a contemporary hand and cut to form a jigsaw puzzle, with engraved caption and short description below the image. Stored in the original cardboard box with an etched and engraved sample plate for a fourth puzzle (with caption "Équité de l'empereur") on the top, coloured by a contemporary hand, and an embossed gilt-paper border. Each puzzle with the original pink paper wrap-around slip preserved. A fine and colourful set of jigsaw puzzles depicting scenes from the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. Two of the puzzles and the sample plate have the address "Ulysse Paris" engraved in the image. Each puzzle has 20 pieces: the first depicts Napoleon calmly sleeping in a chair after having given orders to his generals on the eve of the battle of Austerlitz (1 Dec. 1805); the second shows Napoleon addressing an exhausted soldier - a scene from the battle of Lodi on 10 May 1796, fought between Napoleon's forces and the Austrian rear guard commanded by Johann Beaulieu. The third puzzle shows Napoleon as merciful emperor, receiving the thankful wife and children of a Prussian lord accused of conspiracy, whom he pardoned. The puzzle matching the scene depicted on the top of the box is not included. A few pieces cracked at thin spots; box slightly defective with traces of handling and browned. A good set.
