Description from the seller

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

Magnificent bibliophile 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 work combines the dramatic power of classical theatre with Claude Weisbuch’s graphic universe, a master of movement and line.

Through his engravings, the artist brings to life the characters of Corneille with all the fervor and intensity that characterizes his work. His compositions, at once nerve‑racking and elegant, admirably convey the dramatic tension and the inner conflicts of the protagonists.

A remarkable encounter between literature and original engraving
