Description from the seller

CLAUDE WEISBUCH (1927-2014) – HORACE DE PIERRE CORNEILLE – 1995
Bibliophilic illustrated edition featuring 15 original drypoints – Signed and numbered copy

Magnificent bibliophilic edition of the famous tragedy Horace by Pierre Corneille, illustrated with 15 original drypoints by Claude Weisbuch, including two double-page compositions.

Published in 1995 by Les Pharmaciens Bibliophiles, this exceptional volume fuses the dramatic power of classical theater with Claude Weisbuch’s graphic universe, a master of movement and line.

Through his engravings, the artist brings Corneille’s characters to life with the same ardor and intensity that characterize his work. His compositions, both tense and elegant, admirably convey the dramatic tension and the inner conflicts of the protagonists.

Buyers commit to paying for their purchases within a maximum of 3 days. For any request to consolidate lots, please do so before payment, via Catawiki, or by email: info@artdif.fr.

The number of required parcels and the shipping costs depend on feasibility. We do not offer any service beyond what is described or provided by Catawiki. Regarding multiples (numbered or justified works), unless otherwise stated, the numbering or justification may differ from what is shown in the photo, due to stock management.
