He also conducted for masked balls at the Salle Ventadour and the Opéra-Comique and eventually in 1835 and 1836 for the balls at the Opéra itself. He continued to be a popular conductor until 1845. In France he was considered the doyen of dance composers and popular conductors until 1852."

1886KC8047Paris: Alcan-Levy 20 May 1886. Limited Edition. Paperback. Very Good. 28pp 2. 245 x 152mm. Limited edition number 29 of 100 printed on papier Hollande. Original printed wrappers edges uncut preserved and bound possibly for Paul Verlaine in 19th-century marbled boards spine stamped with author title and Ex. De Paul Verlaine. Pierre Quillard dedicates this copy to friend Philippe Martinon 1859-1917 a French linguist philologist and translator À mon ami ce petit livre ancien en souvenir dancienne et présente amitié To my friend this little old book old memories of past and present friendship and autograph of Quillard. Martinon is best remembered for his classic text translations of Greek and Latin and other studies on French metric. It is possible Martinon gave this presentation copy to Verlaine who in turn had it bound with his ex-libris on the spine. Both men were of great literary reputation and frequented the same poetic circles of the burgeoning symbolist movement. <br/><br/>It was a new symbolist mystery play to be presented in two simple tableaux as opposed to acts and scenes with minimal direction and the barest of staging directions. In effect the speaker became a central character and the intention thus emphasized the lyricism of the verse. Therefore the verse has a continuous prose accompaniment which explains the changes in time and space indicating different entities and slowly revealing the facts. Quillards verse is freed to reveal the expression of the characters souls -- it becomes a book of masks and symbolic portraits. This Quillards manifesto performance aimed to establish a new aesthetic for stageable drama. The schematic story line of this work arguably made one of the boldest attempts to put such ideas into action. In it Quillard represents the medieval story of St. Uliva a young virgin who agrees to amputate her hands to save her from the incestuous caresses of her brutal father. The story is imbued with vague mysticism supernatural journeys and resurrections. This copy was well admired in the circle of symbolist artists and writers with a definite association with Martinon and perhaps the great Verlaine. Alcan-Levy paperback

186413458Paris: Dusacq & Cie. Editeurs 1864. Hand-coloured lithograph after a painting by Linder. Very good condition apart from some mild rippling a small loss in the top margin and a few skillfully repaired tears in the bottom margin. A beautifully coloured humorous plate that was most likely part of a series published by Dusacq of images by various artists depicting railway related scenes.<br/> <br/> During the mid-nineteenth century the technological advancement and financial prosperity of France under Napoleon III hastened the development of the railway and other modern modes of transportation such as the omnibus. These improvements brought about a culture of mass tourism as members of various classes flocked to the railroad to take day trips. An archetypal symbol of modern life the railway station became a popular subject during the period and was represented and parodied by artists such as Honoré Daumier and William Powell Frith. It was an ideal place to observe a varied cross-section of society and the idiosyncrasies of human behavior. In the tradition of Daumier's satiric railway scenes from the 1840s and 1850s Linder exploits the comic possibilities of this bustling modern subject in this charming print. The title 'Pleasure Train' was most likely intended as an ironic play on words since pleasure is the last thing enjoyed by the swelling crowd of people on the platform many of whom scream in frustration as they are pushed and prodded in an effort to exit and enter the train. A pupil of the celebrated artist Charles Gleyre Philippe Jacques Linder was a genre and portrait painter who regularly exhibited works at the Salon between 1857-1880.<br/> <br/> Cf.
