AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Quarto, loose in gathers, with a printed cover, along with the wooden cover, and broken (but repairable) wooden outer slipcase box. The book itself and the first wooden cover, with title to spine, are in very good shape, and very clean (see photos).
First and only illustrated edition of this text by Roger Dévigne, limited to 135 numbered and inscribed copies on Rives white vellum. This copy is #105, complete with its frontispiece and 29 etchings in the text; with tissue guards.
Just the text was first published by Ollendorff in 1923.
Its publication came in the same year as the release of a film adaptation, which premiered in Paris in March 1937 under the direction of René Guisart.
Roger Dévigne, journalist and writer, devoted much of his work to folklore studies and founded several journals, including Le Sémaphore de l’Île Saint-Louis.
Jules Adler, long celebrated as “the painter of the humble,” was appointed professor at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1928. The 30 compositions here are etched by Raymond Haasen.
xv, 292 pp. 34 x 26 cm.
