1988ref. 508423Ediciones Siruela 1988. First Edition. Hardcover. NEAR FINE. First Printing. 4to sewn binding in printed red and black paper over board hardcovers with matching slipcase. Profusely illustrated. 'Alchemy its mysteries and the quest for the Philosopher's Stone have been a strand in the development of European culture from antiquity onwards. By the seventeenth century the complex pictorial language of alchemical symbols had reached a high point of elaboration and beauty. With the spread of printing the whole fantastic iconography flowered as never before. This magnificent book presents a selection of the finest alchemical engravings brought together for the first time. The best engravers of the age--the De Bry family Merian De Hooghe and others--worked to interpret the haunting emblems of Lambsprinck and Michael Maier the profundities of the wordless Mutus Liber or the Christian mysticism of Jacob Bohme. In his introduction and commentaries the author investigates the origins of this visual tradition interprets the symbols and provides information on authors publishers patrons and engravers.'

ref. 3067Paris: Editions Librairie Seguier 1988. First collected edition of Messiaen's detailed accounts of each of Mozart's piano concertos which had appeared individually in concert programs. Olivier Messiaen 1908-1992 was the pre-eminent French composer of the second half of the 20th century. From a total edition of 100 numbered copies this is ONE OF ONLY 50 COPIES WITH A LOOSE COLOR LITHOGRAPH BY BALTHUS. The lithograph in soft colors depicts a bay with a smoking volcano in the background. Balthus Balthazar Klossowski de Rola 1908-2001 was one of the great French artists of the 20th century. In theory the book is supposed to be signed by Messiaen and the lithograph by Balthus but in fact neither is signed. The publication of this book was carried out in the most chaotic possible way: Messiaen ended up signing only presentation copies and Balthus ended up signing only a few impressions of the lithograph. Large folio 56 x 38.5 cm. Loose as issued in printed wraps and publisher's cloth portfolio/clamshell box. FINE AND BRIGHT with no defects. Paris: Editions Librairie Seguier, 1988 paperback

Balthus loved Mozart so much that to him 'music' was Mozart. Once incorporated into Mozart's scores folk songs and traditional music are no longer confined by the boundaries of time or geography. Instead they begin to reside in the Country of Beauty. Balthus too wished to visualize scenes from the ordinary into paintings upon canvasesÉ. In July 1950 Balthus was invited to create sets and costume designs for 'Cos Fan Tutte' at the musical festival in Aix-en-Provence. Balthus recalled the opportunity with great tenderness. So much so that many years later after moving to Switzerland he made numerous inquiries concerning the whereabouts of his stage sets. Unfortunately Balthus was to be disappointed and this work remains lost."" Perhaps appropriately then the three CDs included with this volume are of a performance at the Aix-en-Provence festival of July 1957. Fine condition in a toned slipcase. hardcover
