Alphonse Daudet / Dubout - L'Arlésienne - 1928

Rare and superb numbered edition 369 on large Arches vélin and illustrated with beautiful color illustrations by Dubout -

This dramatic work deeply marked by themes of impossible love, honor, jealousy, and family drama, the action of which is set in the rural and southern world dear to the author -

The story unfolds in Provence, around a family of landowners and farmers whose existence is upheaved by Frédéri's passion for a young woman from Arles, whom one never sees directly but whose presence dominates the entire plot -

This physical absence gives the character of the Arlésienne an almost mythical dimension, since she exists in the play only through the words, the memories and the judgments of the other characters -
