1821réf. 83789Paris: Chez Les Marchands de nouveautés 1821. Fine. Chez Les Marchands de nouveautés Paris 1821 - 1825 9.50 x 15.80 cm 2 volumes reliés First edition of these 3 works bound in 2 volumes. Following the Trial of messieurs de Béranger and Baudouin 14 manuscript songs retained by the prosecutor general against Béranger and censored. One understands the interest of this copy since the song collection was sold out or seized. Contemporary full straight-grained green morocco binding. Luxury binding from a major atelier but unsigned. Smooth spine decorated with a blind stamp with floral semé within a double gilt fillet frame. Boards decorated with multiple blind frames doubled with gilt fillets. Gilt edges. Triple gilt interior fillet. Spines uniformly faded. Small dark areas on the boards of one volume. Traces of rubbing. Scattered pale yellow foxing. Very handsome copies. Two days after the publication of the author's song collection published at his own expense the king's prosecutor for the Seine department filed a complaint against the chansonnier and ordered the seizure of the work the police only managed to seize 500 copies since 10000 had sold in a few days. He faced four charges: offense to morals attack on religious morality offense against the person of the king and incitement to wear a rallying sign unauthorized by the king the tricolor flag. He was condemned to a minimal sentence of three months in prison and a 500 F fine essentially for his attacks against the Capuchins and missionaries. Meanwhile his lawyer Dupin provoked a second trial by publishing his plea accompanied by the text of the incriminated songs as procedural documents. Béranger was a convinced republican and his songs became increasingly virulent under Louis XVIII. After the episode of his trial where all of Paris rushed to attend he became under Charles X an important figure of the liberal camp. An engaged author and today forgotten the chansonnier Béranger enjoyed immense celebrity but posterity has identified him with the acerbic criticisms of Flaubert and Baudelaire as a minor and bourgeois author unjustly revered. The history of his trial well before those of Baudelaire and Flaubert reveals the greater complexity of the author and stages the history of censorship under the Restoration.

réf. 107910Paris Bibliothèque Nationale de France 2018. 4° 191 S. zahlr. Abb. Kart. Ecken am Fuss min. gestaucht sonst tadell. Sprache: franz.- Pablo Picasso 1881-1973 est certainement l’un des artistes les plus complets du xxe siècle : à la fois peintre dessinateur sculpteur graveur il n’a cessé d’approfondir toutes les techniques explorant les champs et les modes d’expression les plus divers. À partir des années 1910 il découvre le monde du spectacle et travaille à la création de décors et costumes qui marqueront l’histoire du ballet. Parade 1917 Le Tricorne 1919 Pulcinella 1920 Mercure 1924 constituent autant de repères majeurs pour cet art. L’héritage de Picasso reste d’ailleurs vivace au sein du répertoire du Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris témoignant de l’importance de la place qu’il occupe dans le paysage chorégraphique.Mais il faut dépasser le cadre du ballet pour découvrir que l’intérêt de Picasso pour la danse s’est en réalité exprimé dès ses plus jeunes années. Des danseuses de cirque des années 1900 aux danses érotiques du dernier Picasso en passant par les scènes de bacchanales des années 1940 à 1960 tout a semblé prétexte à représenter des corps en mouvement. La dynamique du mouvement dansé a ainsi traversé toute l’œuvre du maître allant parfois jusqu’à alimenter son geste artistique.L’exposition organisée par la Bibliothèque nationale de France et l’Opéra national de Paris explore les différentes facettes du rapport de Picasso à la danse entre vie de troupe et recherches créatrices entre beaux-arts et spectacle vivant. 010 Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale de France, 2018 unknown

réf. 04866Paris: Baudouin Frères Éditeurs 1828. Pierre-Jean de Béranger "The Most Popular French Songwriter of All Time" "The First Superstar of French Popular Music" A presentation copy inscribed by Béranger to Rangot accompanied by a one-page autograph letter from Rangot and an original pencil sketch of Béranger by Monnier MONNIER Henri illustrator. Chansons de Pierre Jean de Béranger Anciennes Nouvelles et Inédites avec des vignettes de Devéria et des dessins coloriées d'Henri Monnier. Suivies des Procès Intentés a l'Auteur. Paris: Baudouin Frères Éditeurs 1828. First edition. A presentation copy inscribed by Béranger to Rangot accompanied by a one-page autograph letter from Rangot dated 21 August 1831 and an original pencil sketch of Béranger by Henri Monnier dated 16 August 1831 pasted on the verso of the title-page. Extra-illustrated by the insertion of eighty-six engraved plates on India paper mounted throughout by or after such artists as Bellangé Boilly Boulanger Charlet Devéria Fragonard Grandville Grenier Isabey Johannot Monnier Scheffer Vernet and Delacroix. Two octavo volumes 8 13/16 x 5 1/2 inches; 225 x 140 mm. iv 1-192 iv preface 193-439 1 blank 2 2-7 Biographie du Citoyen Béranger; iv 1-433 1 blank 435-438 pp. With an original pencil sketch by Monnier pasted onto the verso of the first title-page. Illustrated with thirty-three of forty superb hand-colored lithographs by Henri Monnier and numerous vignette wood-engravings by Achille Devéria. Seven plates not included: nos. 21 26 28 31 35 37 and 39 as noted by Carteret III p.272 these particular plates are "very often missing". These seven missing plates are highlighted below within the listing of all 40 plates. Bound ca. 1828 by R. Hering & Muller volume 2 stamp-signed in gilt at foot of spine in half dark blue scored calf spines elaborately tooled and lettered in gilt marbled endpapers edges uncut. A wonderful and important copy. Provenance: With two bookplates of M.A. Tessier Architecte: his engraved ex-libris with oak wreath vol. I verso of front free endpaper and the Tessier family armorial bookplate Semper Progrediens - "Ever Forward" on the front pastedowns of both volumes. "The forty drawings by Henri Monnier lithographed with a pen on stone and colored with a brush are very rare complete. Seven of these lithographs are often missing they are: The Court Dress The Exile The Good Old Man The Marquise of Pretintaille The Flight of Love The Voyager The two Grenadiers." Carteret III p. 72. The signed presentation translated reads: "Nothing more ridiculous for an author than to write something at the head of his works; but an admirable obstinacy obliges me here to obey. - Béranger". An ironic comment on the absurdity of authors inscribing their own books. The Autograph Letter Signed "Rangot" 21 Aug. 1831 translated reads: "Dear and precious friend. the amiable good Béranger will do all you wish and has promised to honor me with a visit or two. I hope that the bonds of friendship will soon bring me the happiness of seeing you. Your poor very devoted but true friend Rangot. Paris 21 August 1831 Grande rue No. 81." With a postscript in Italian: "A thousand thousand respects to your amiable kind and good wife to whom I wish a child who in all things will resemble the father." The signatory to the Als. "Rangot" leaves open the possibility of "Ragot." No individual of that exact name is recorded among Béranger's principal circle of publishers chansonniers or correspondents. It is therefore probable that "Rangot" was a minor literary or personal acquaintance acting as an intermediary arranging introductions to the poet at a time 1831 just after the July Revolution when Béranger's fame and political sensitivity made such mediation necessary. While one could tentatively connect the name with Louis-François Ragot 1782-1857 a Parisian man of letters active in minor journals of the period this identification remains unverified in standard bibliographies Vicaire Escoffier Carteret or collections of Béranger's correspondence. The original Pencil Sketch of Béranger signed and captioned dated 16 August 1831 by Henri Monnier. Reads: "Béranger the poet looking at the statue of Guillaume le Conquérant by the sculptor Archereau at the Champs-Élysées." With annotation: "I made this sketch of Béranger with all the possible politeness and convenience; it was impossible for me to take his face but from the back he gave me a good profile. I placed myself in a corner where I could see him well hidden for a poet who deserves to be observed must be carefully preserved." "Monnier also illustrated Béranger's Chansons creating numerous series over time that reflect his admiration for Béranger's work. His lithographs and early watercolors despite their small size demonstrate his extreme finesse and simplicity. Monnier's bright flat colors encircled by precise pen or pencil strokes bring his subjects to life with values and shadows indicated by more or less dense hatching. Some watercolors from this period appear almost as pen drawings enhanced with color due to the prominence of the pen work." Marie. Pierre-Jean de Béranger 1780-1857 was a prolific French poet and chansonnier songwriter who enjoyed great popularity and influence in France during his lifetime but faded into obscurity in the decades following his death. He has been described as "the most popular French songwriter of all time" and "the first superstar of French popular music". The Chansons were composed with fastidious care and are most notable for their clarity wit and incisiveness however the socialist and revolutionary content of his songs resulted in several brushes with the authorities resulting in his nine month incarceration in La Force Prison.

Octavo 8 7/8 x 5 3/4 inches; 225 x 147 mm. Illustrated with forty magnificent contemporary hand-colored lithographs by Henri Monnier and hundreds of wood-engraved text vignettes by Achille Devéria. Accompanied by the exceedingly rare complete duplicate suite of all forty contemporary hand-colored lithographs likewise preserved within the publisher's original printed wrappers bringing the total to eighty original contemporary hand-colored lithographs. The front wrapper of the First Livraison bears the contemporary presentation inscription of the printer-publisher Rignoux. Publisher's original pale green printed wrappers each with its own distinctive wood-engraved vignette. A superb entirely unsophisticated survival. The principal work remains complete in all ten original livraisons while the two complete suites of Monnier's lithographs are preserved separately one housed in an original Second Livraison wrapper and the duplicate suite in an original Fifth Livraison wrapper exactly as issued. Together with: BÉRANGER Pierre-Jean. Poniatowski. Hatons-Nous. Chansons Dédiées au Général Lafayette Premier Grenadier de la Garde Polonaise. Suivies du 14 Juillet 1829 et des Couplets à mes Amis devenus Ministres. Paris: À l'Agence du Comité. 1831. First edition. Octavo 8 7/8 x 5 3/4 inches; 225 x 147 mm. 1-23 1 blank. Preserved in its original blue printed wrapper. The entire collection housed in a handsome three-quarter green morocco clamshell case. Pierre-Jean de Béranger was the most celebrated songwriter political poet and popular literary figure of nineteenth-century France. His chansons were sung not only in theaters and cafés but in workshops military barracks taverns and private drawing rooms throughout the country becoming inseparable from everyday French life. Combining lyrical elegance with wit patriotism and fearless political commentary Béranger exercised an influence unmatched by any French popular poet of his generation. His repeated prosecutions and imprisonment under the Bourbon Restoration only increased his fame transforming him into the literary voice of liberal France and one of the defining cultural figures of the nineteenth century. The present work has long been regarded as the greatest illustrated edition of Béranger's songs. To accompany the text the publishers assembled two of the foremost artists of the Romantic generation. Achille Devéria supplied hundreds of exquisitely engraved woodcut vignettes that enrich almost every page while Henri Monnier created forty original lithographs that rank among the earliest masterpieces of French Romantic book illustration. Executed with Monnier's characteristic humanity humor and penetrating observation of everyday Parisian life these compositions perfectly complement the spirit of Béranger's verse capturing both its comic brilliance and its emotional warmth. Although complete copies of the illustrated edition are themselves of the utmost rarity the present example belongs to an altogether different order of survival. Not only does it preserve all ten original publisher's livraisons each retaining its fragile printed wrapper - ephemeral elements almost invariably discarded when nineteenth-century subscribers had their parts bound - but it also preserves the publisher's complete duplicate suite of Henri Monnier's forty contemporary hand-colored lithographs likewise retained in their original wrappers exactly as issued. Such duplicate suites were intended for collectors wishing to preserve an additional set of illustrations yet they were almost always separated damaged or discarded during the binding process. We have been unable to trace another copy preserving every original livraison together with both complete contemporary hand-colored suites. The visual effect is simply extraordinary. The contemporary hand-coloring remains remarkably fresh and luminous throughout delicately executed in the finest Parisian manner of the late Restoration. Together the two complete suites comprise eighty original contemporary hand-colored lithographs transforming the work into one of the most spectacular surviving monuments of French Romantic illustrated publishing. The front wrapper of the First Livraison bears the contemporary presentation inscription of the printer and publisher Rignoux providing an unusually appealing contemporary association with the publication itself. Equally remarkable is the survival of every original wrapper preserving the work precisely as subscribers first received it in 1828. Such wrappers rank among the most ephemeral survivals of nineteenth-century publishing and are seldom encountered complete. Henri Monnier's illustrations occupy a pivotal place in the history of French caricature. Produced before the celebrated Scènes Populaires and the works that established him as one of the supreme visual chroniclers of nineteenth-century Paris they reveal an artist already in complete command of expressive characterization theatrical composition and psychological observation. These early lithographs anticipate the qualities that would later influence Honoré Daumier and define an entire generation of French Romantic satirical art. Together with Devéria's refined wood engravings they constitute one of the great achievements of Romantic book illustration. Accompanying the principal work is the scarce first edition of Poniatowski. Hatons-Nous. published in 1831 and preserved like the Chansons in its original printed wrapper. Dedicated to General Lafayette and inspired by the Polish struggle for national independence it reflects the liberal political ideals that permeate so much of Béranger's writing. Its presence provides an exceptionally appropriate contemporary companion to the monumental illustrated edition while further enhancing the historical and bibliographical importance of the collection. Few illustrated books of the Romantic period survive in anything approaching their original published state; fewer still preserve every ephemeral wrapper and virtually none retain the publisher's complete duplicate suite of hand-colored plates. This extraordinary copy preserves not merely Béranger's greatest illustrated work but the entire experience of its publication exactly as nineteenth-century collectors first acquired it. It stands as a landmark of French Romantic literature political history music and illustrated book production and is unquestionably among the finest surviving copies of Henri Monnier's first great lithographic masterpiece. "Monnier also illustrated Béranger's Chansons creating numerous series over time that reflect his admiration for Béranger's work. His lithographs and early watercolors despite their small size demonstrate his extreme finesse and simplicity. Monnier's bright flat colors encircled by precise pen or pencil strokes bring his subjects to life with values and shadows indicated by more or less dense hatching. Some watercolors from this period appear almost as pen drawings enhanced with color due to the prominence of the pen work." Marie. KVK locates no complete copies.
