Description

A PERFECT COPY OF A GORGEOUS LIVRE D'ARTISTE, WITH ONE OF THE RARE SEPARATE SUITES OF THE LITHOGRAPHS. Illustrated with 13 original lithographs by Brianchon: 6 double-page color lithographs, 1 full-page color lithograph, and 6 single-page lithographs in black. Edition limited to 180 numbered copies printed exclusively for the members of the bibliophile society "Les Francs Bibliophiles" on fine Arches wove paper (this copy printed for Christian de Brossard). This copy, exceptionally, has a separate suite of the 13 lithographs on extremely fine Auvergne handmade wove paper. The double-page lithographs in the suite, obviously, have never been folded, unlike the ones in the book. Only 40 of these suites were printed (16 on Japanese paper, 24 on Auvergne paper). Folio (book) and large folio (suite). Book is loose in original wraps, cloth chemise and slipcase. Suite in original folder. Both are FINE AND BRIGHT, WITH NO DEFECTS.
