195013962Paris: Verve 1950. This issue of <i>Verve</i> features two sets of illustrations for Boccaccio's <i>Decameron</i> one set the so-called Duke of Burgundy version consists of twenty six miniatures reproduced in full color photogravure. The publisher of <i>Verve</i> Tériade found these black and white washes in Chagall's studio in 1948 and immediately wanted to use them in conjunction with the Duke of Burgundy miniatures. For the most part the selections from the miniatures were driven by linking them to the appropriate Chagall drawing so only about a quarter of the full set of 100 miniatures were used in this issue of <i>Verve</i>. These washes were a new development for Chagall making use of different techniques both brushes and pens as well as a wide range of shades of grey and black. The juxtapositon of the two media made for a memorable issue of Verve. The book opens with a poem by Jacques Prevert and an introduction by Frantz Calot then the curator of the Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal home of the Duke of Burgundy miniatures.This copy is inscribed from Chagall to a Monsieur Abeel Venice 1957. Laid in is a typed signed note from Chagall's wife Valentina along with the typed envelope addressed to M. Abeel at a hotel in Venice postmarked 1960. The note is regarding an invitation to dinner with the Chagalls.Very good condition overall with some of the usual problems with the exterior--paper of the corners chipped several smallish pieces missing from the spine one closed tear and one tear with a triangular piece missing. Most of the pieces of the cover are still present if folded. Held in place by the clear plastic cover. Signatures are securely sewn. Interior is near fine. Please see accompanying photographs.
