1927réf. 0005209Chicago: A. Ackermann & Son Inc 1927. First Limited edition. Very Good. Image measures approx. 15.5 inches by 21.25 inches; unframed but mounted on fiberboard dark "tidal stain" at lower left margin maskable with matting. Perhaps the most vivid illustrations created of 1860 Chicago were published by Jevne and Almini in France. Raoul Varin of Paris France re-created the original paintings in the mid-1920s. "The differences between Mr. Varin's paintings and the original prints were subtle. He engraved a variety of signed limited edition numbered prints . in the 1920s and 1930s. They were published by A Ackermann & Son . His views took a historical perspective . often based on extant classical works." Only 100 signed prints of the finished work were published. This is apparently a Proof State of the print and thus unnumbered but it is signed by Varin in pencil in the lower right corner. . A. Ackermann & Son Inc unknown

réf. 21804S.l., s.n., XIXe siècle. In-folio, 67 planches, demi-chagrin vert, plats de percaline chagrinée verte estampée à froid, dos à nerfs orné de filets dorés (reliure frottée, petites rousseurs et taches).
33 x 23 cm (sheet size). Gouache on paper. Heightened in gold and silver. Charming, if amateurish, anonymous representation of Napoleon Bonaparte as Consul, based on reproductions of an original portrait by the general and military painter Louis Albert Guislain Bacler d'Albe (1761-1824). The official engraved version of d'Albe's portrait by Michelangelo Mercoli the younger circulated widely in Europe and was frequently reproduced and varied. In the gouached copy at hand, Napoleon's typical bicorne hat was added, either based on the concrete model or as an original idea of the copyist. This artistically rather unhappy addition is an interesting reminder of the immediate iconicity of Napoleon's hat. The inscription "N. Bonaparte P.er Consul de la République Française" corresponds exactly to Mercoli's print. - Well preserved. With minor tears and browning to the margins.
