AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
French medieval heroes portrayed in large woodcuts by Hermann Paul
André Mary. Le doctrinal des Preux.
Paris, Léon Pichon, 1919. Folio (340 x 240 mm). [28] p.
With 20 large woodcut portraits by Hermann Paul.
White backfold wrapper, printed in red and black.
Issued in 336 copies, this is one of the 300 (no 48) on vélin à la cuve des Papeterie de Rives.
André Mary (1879-1962) was a poet and specialist for medieval French literature. Inspired by his birth ground, Burgundy, much of his work was inspired by the medieval times, which is also the case in this work, where medieval heroes are portrayed by Hermann Paul and described in a short poem by Mary.
Hermann Paul (1864-1940) was a French caricaturist and illustrator. He worked in many techniques, but after World War I mainly in woodcut. His inspirations became in this period more literary than journalistic. His style evolved from a Belle Époque line to a modernist simplification.
-Literature: Carteret V, p. 133.
-Condition: Wrapper a bit browned; else a very fine copy.
