Description from the seller
Superb bibliophile edition of this text by Maurice Genevoix, illustrated with 15 original full-page etchings by A. D. Steinlen.
Book in in-quarto Jésus format, comprising 88 pages, presented under a soft cover, with a gray cloth case and slipcase with gilt lettering.
Exemplaire d’artiste n° XIV, signed in pencil by the artist A. D. Steinlen and the publisher Jacques Danon, as confirmed by the colophon page.
This copy is especially remarkable for the presence of a large original full-page watercolor drawing, signed by A. D. Steinlen, depicting an architectural and landscape view.
The edition’s printing is limited to 355 numbered copies, in addition to copies reserved for the author and artist’s copies.
The 15 etchings were etched in drypoint and pulled on the presses of the Aqua-Art workshop in Corbeil.
State of conservation:
- Interior of the book in perfect condition.
- Pages and engravings in remarkably fresh condition.
- Cover, slipcase, and interior of the case in perfect condition.
- Outer case showing light wear on the top parts, with a few small losses of cloth, consistent with its age.
- Overall very well preserved, complete with its original presentation.
A very fine example of bibliophilia, pairing Maurice Genevoix and A. D. Steinlen, sought after for its signed artist’s edition and especially for the presence of an original watercolor.
