Description
Paris, Bibliophiles indépendants, 1898.
In-4 (234x176mm) of [26]pp. and continuation in black of [25]pp.
Original bradel binding in full-shagreen with shagreen frame and painted vellum skin. The shagreen frames the covers of the previous binding which was in vellum. These covers are painted in a medieval illumination style in gold, red, blue and black.
Cover illustrated and preserved with 26 compositions by Léon Lebègue, the book is entirely calligraphed by the artist and hand-watercolored from the originals.
One of the greatest successes of Léon Lebègue for this story of Anatole France telling us the loose morals of Madame Violante to the great displeasure of her husband and her confessor Brother Jean Curelure.
This humorous story comes to life with the characters drawn by Lebègue, bright colors, magnificent and mastered composition accompanied by a calligraphy in harmony with the subject.
ORIGINAL EDITION for this limited publication of 200 copies and executed by Octave Uzanne for the Independent Bibliophiles. Here is No. 35.
