Fables choisies de J.P. Clarris de Florian Illustrées par des artistes japonais sous la direction de Pierre Barboutau
Flammarion Succ., Paris, 1895
Very rare luxury copies numbered N°174 and N°98
We usually find in the trade the current print run, the numbered luxury edition on Japanese Tori-Noko paper is recognizable by the gray frame with patterns on the cover.
2 volumes In-4 oblong in traditional Japanese binding tied with white cords on Tori-Noko paper. A very thick paper printed on one side only then folded. Printed covers, 28 prints outside the text in color. Text with frame and tailpiece in black and white. The printing on the very thick paper creates a volume that accompanies the drawing on certain prints.
Volume 1: XIV fables of Clarisse illustrated by Ka-no Tomo-nobou (one of the representatives of the Ka-no school) and Kadji-ta Han-ko, a Japanese literary painter and leader of the YosaÏ realist school. The illustrations are engraved and printed by the section of the Shueisha Company, named Seiboundô.
Volume 2: XIV fables of Clarisse illustrated by Kon-bo-ta Tô-soui of the O-kio school (one of the great artists of his time) and Ka-no Tomo-nobou. The illustrations are engraved and printed by the section of the Shueisha Company, named Seiboundô.
The fables were, at the time, translated for artists so that they could create Japanese scenes of life in line with the French fables. Barboutau had to learn a lesson from his edition of La Fontaine's Fables, where the illustrations did not always match the subject of the fables.
Condition: Cover of volume 1 is sunned and foxing on the cover of volume 2. Otherwise good condition overall, the interiors are very fresh.
