1878SAV158Rouen: E. Augé 1878. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 245 x 160mm. xvi preface 418pp. with tables. Pictorial printed wrappers and title printed in red and black. Double etched frontispiece by Jules Adeline. Preface by Champfleury the pseudonym of writer Jean Fleury 1821-1889. Édition de luxe numbered 2 of 220 and initialed by Jules Adeline JA; issued as the first 20 on papier de Chine with a double suite of etchings in black and white and sepia. 127 vignettes forming the 100 pages of vignettes stated on the title depicting monumental sculpture capitals vaults reliefs gargoyles in-text. Bound by E. Quinet in 1883 in full medieval-style cuir-ciselé binding depicting two reliefs on the Cathedral of Rouen: a gothic grotesque hooded man holding staff front cover and hybrid dog-like centaur playing fiddle back cover spine blind-lettered SCULPTURES GROTESQUES marbled endpapers green gold and purple silk endbands gilt edges; A fine deluxe printing in impeccable form the binding is a treasure and was made especially for the text nothing else is quite like it. Ex-libris and oval gilt morocco bookplate of Estelle Doheny on front pastedown. <br/><br/>This is a deluxe issue of the famous monograph written and illustrated by Jules Adeline on the grotesque Gothic sculptures and gargoyles in the region of Rouen. Amply illustrated on fine papier de Chine it is numbered 2 in the first set of 20 and is initialed by Jules Adeline on the edition leaf. The deluxe edition of this monograph printing is quite rare. This was the tirage tout spécial destined for distribution between the author and printers circle. By Adelines initials we conclude this copy enjoyed that privileged circulation. Adeline was a fixture in his hometown of Rouen. His career began in architectural sketching where he developed a keen eye for depicting the monumental sculpture in his native French medieval city. Adeline also worked as a caricaturist and artistic columnist for several newspapers including the "Journal de Rouen" "Rouen Nouvelliste" and "Le Progrès de Rouen." In particular this publication dealt with the satirical and symbolic sculptures that he encountered on the winding avenues of Rouen. With contributions from Champfleury a trailblazer of Realism in painting and literature this work was celebrated for its conclusions in medieval art iconography mainly that hybrid characters embodied complex nuanced and understated ideas that often resist exact interpretation. The custom presentation binding of cuir-ciselé cut-leatherwork is most exceptional. Not only is it unusual in treatment but also it incorporates two relief panels from the Cathedral of Rouen in the form of characteristic medieval grotesques. Not much is known about the Parisian binder Quinet but he can be linked to other bindings of the late-nineteenth century many described as magnificently gilt. This artisanal binding is unparalleled in its distinctive medieval-revival leather craftsmanship; it is period to five years of the printing and would have circulated through Jules Adeline himself perhaps even by his commission.

1820aa736Paris: Hubert Libraire Palais-Royal 1820. First. Very Good. This very scarce novel written by a popular comic French actress is in red morocco with gilt titles on spines and the gilt monogram of the Empress Marie-Louise on both covers indicating that the volumes are from her personal library. Other volumes from her library with similar bindings are held at Cambridge University and at Princeton.<br /> <p>The set is in very good condition overall. Vol. 1 does have some old water damage to front edges of covers half title and endpapers but the rest of the covers and the text are unaffected with only slight age toning and uneven page edges as is sometimes typical for books of this period. Vol. 2 shows none of the issues of Vol. 1 and has only minor scuffing at the corners. Modest foxing primarily at half title and title pages Both bindings are tight and sound. An internet search yields no other originals currently available just modern print-to-order copies. So the novel itself is scarce but its association with the Empress makes this set unique.</p> <br /> <p>Marie-Anne-Florence Bernardy-Nones 1766 - 1818 known as Mademoiselle Fleury was a Belgian actress active in France Her father Louis-Joseph Nones known as Fleury and mother Marie-Anne-Denise Bernardy daughter of Charles Bernardy were comic actors in the provinces who often appeared in the Austrian Netherlands. Mademoiselle Fleury debuted at the Comédie-Française in 1786 and became a sociétaire in 1791 retiring in 1807.</p> <br /> <p>Marie Louise 1791–1847 was Napoleon's second wife and as such Empress of the French and Queen of Italy from their marriage in 1810 until his abdication in April 1814. She was the eldest child of Francis II Holy Roman Emperor and Emperor of Austria and his second wife Maria Theresa of Naples and Sicily. Despite Napoleon’s abdication her royal parentage was recognized by the Congress of Vienna and she became the Duchess of Parma from 1814 until her death.</p> . Hubert, Libraire, Palais-Royal unknown
