Livre Edition originale
FIRST EDITION, LIMITED EDITION (116/125). 4to. (30 x 24.5 cm). Fine Art Deco binding of full tan morocco by Loutrel (successor to Parisian bookbinder Alix), sides with interlocking bands of navy blue and green morocco, each ruled with gilt fillets, spine lettered in gilt, brown suede endpapers, top edge gilt, printed on fine velin d'arches paper. Housed in a complementary yellow marbled paper covered slipcase with tan morocco edges. 10 full-page colour printed plates, large colour engraved cover vignette, and cul-de-lampe to colophon, all engraved on wood by Théo Schmied. Two minute darker brown marks to spine, minimal faint scattered spotting, generally an excellent copy. This is one of the fine series of works produced by French doctor, entrepreneur, collector, bibliophile, writer, publisher and Nazi-resister Dr. Lucien Désiré Prosper Graux (1878-1944), who had created one of the largest and finest private collections of manuscripts and books of his time, housed at his home at 33 avenue Kleber. He also created the small publishing house called "Les Amis du Docteur Lucien-Graux" which produced finely printed livres d'artistes such as this one, typically with limitations of less than 150. François-Louis Schmied is considered one of the most important of the Art Deco artists, particularly in the area of book illustration, design and publishing. An experienced wood engraver, he practised the delicate technique of multiple monochrome overprints in order to obtain colour illustrations.
