In 8° (19,5x13,5 cm); un foglio volante di (4) pp. Leggera piega al centro del foglio e per il resto esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Rarissima pubblicità teatrale per lo spettacolo che la grande attrice tearale e cinematografica francese, Sarah Bernhardt (Parigi, 22 ottobre 1844 – Parigi, 26 marzo 1923) tenne al Theatre de la Renaissance di Parigi. All’interno della brossure si trova anche la pubblicità per lo spettacolo che la Bernhardt avrebbe tenuto l’11 dicembre del 1898 al Teatro Paganini di Genova. La borossure pubblicitaria presenta un magnifico ritratto dell’attrice realizzato dal grande artista moravo, Alfons Maria Mucha (Ivancice in Moravia nel distretto di Brno, 24 luglio 1860 – Praga, 14 luglio 1939), considerato come il massimo esponente dell’Art Nouveau. L'attrice parigina Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923) fu la figura più influente nella vita artistica di Mucha. Fu il suo primo poster per lei, Gismonda, a renderlo famoso e crebbe sia come uomo che come artista attraverso la sua collaborazione professionale e l'amicizia con la più grande personalità scenica dell'epoca. Mucha conobbe Sarah Bernhardt per la prima volta alla fine del 1894. La leggenda narra che nel giorno di Santo Stefano (26 dicembre) Mucha, allora umile illustratore, stava facendo un favore a un amico, correggendo le prove nel laboratorio di stampa di Lemercier, quando l'attrice chiamò la stamperia con una richiesta urgente di un nuovo poster per la sua partecipazione all’opera teatrale, Gismonda. Tutti i soliti artisti di Lemercier erano in vacanza, quindi disperato si rivolse a Mucha chiedendogli se se la sentiva di realizzare lui un poster. Nonostante la sua mancanza di esperienza nella progettazione di poster, Mucha colse l’opportunità e si mise subito al lavoro. Finito il manifesto lo presentarono insiema alla grande attrice che con grande stupore di Mucha, si entusiasmò per l’opera. Fu così che i manifesti “Gismonda” di Mucha tapezzarono tutta Parigi il mattino del 1° gennaio del 1895. Questa data è oggi celebre perché segna una rivoluzionare del design dei manifesti. La forma lunga e stretta, i sottili colori pastello e l'immobilità della figura quasi a grandezza naturale, introducevano una nota di dignità e sobrietà sorprendente per la sua novità. I manifesti diventarono immediatamente oggetti del desiderio per collezionisti, molti dei quali usavano metodi clandestini per ottenerli, corrompendo coloro che per lavoro applicavano i manifesti o semplicemente, uscendo di notte e tagliandoli dai cartelloni di nascosto. Felicissimo del successo di Gismonda, Sarah Bernhardt offrì immediatamente a Mucha un contratto per la produzione di scenografie, costumi e poster. In base a questo contratto, Mucha produsse altri sei poster per le sue produzioni: La Dame aux Camélias (1896), Lorenzaccio (1896), La Samaritaine (1897), Médée (1898), La Tosca (1898) e Hamlet (1899). Mucha applicò a questi manifesti lo stesso principio progettuale che aveva sviluppato per Gismonda: l'uso di un formato allungato con un'unica figura intera dell'attrice collocata in un'alcova poco profonda sollevata da terra come fosse una santa, tutte caratteristiche che si possono ritrovare in questa brossure. La collaborazione tra Mucha e Sarah Bernhardt fu, certamente, reciprocamente vantaggiosa. I poster di Mucha hanno immortalato l'immagine "divina" dell'attrice, consolidando il suo status iconico. Da parte sua, Bernhardt era così innamorata del lavoro di Mucha che dopo il 1896 fece uso dei suoi progetti per tutti i manifesti che pubblicizzarono i suoi tour americani. D’altra parte, il successo della Bernhardt ha promosso il lavoro di Mucha e lo ha aiutato ad assicurarsi un punto d'appoggio per realizzare la sua arte ed aprirgli nuovi mercarti, anche dopo il 1904 quando l’artista s'imbarcò sul transatlantico La Lorraine, diretto a New York ed continuò la sua carriera negli Stati Uniti. Le brossure pubblicitarie di Mucha, proprio per la loro funzione di fogli volanti usa e getta, sono rarissimi.

39567rather hysterically asking for forgiveness presumably for having mistaken an appointment "I thought it was Tuesday. So ! So ! So ; I do not know what to say to you to be forgiven. You have to comfort me because I have a real sorrow. Master master when do you want me. Tell me a very very kind word." 2 sides 8vo. on monogrammed mourning paper no place no date circa In 1882 in Paris Bernhardt met a Greek diplomat Aristide Damala known in France by his stage name Jacques Damala 1855-1889 who was 11 years her junior and notorious for his romantic affairs. She fell in love with him and insisted that her tour be modified to include a stop in St. Petersburg. Bernhardt invited Damala to give up his diplomatic post to become an actor in her company as well as her lover and before long they decided to marry. Without noticeable talent. Damala began taking large quantities of morphine and following Bernhardt's great success in Fedora Damala took every opportunity to criticize and humiliate her. She later discovered that he was using the money she gave him to buy presents for other women. In early December 1882 when she confronted him he declared that he was going to North Africa to join the Foreign Legion and disappeared. In early 1889 Damala reappeared at Bernhardt's door haggard ill and penniless. Bernhardt instantly forgave him and he continued to act sometimes with success particularly in a play by Georges Ohnet Le Maître des Forges in 1883. However his morphine addiction had worsened. In August 1889 Bernhardt learned that he taken an overdose of morphine in Marseille. She hurried to his bedside and nursed him until he died on 18 August 1889 at the age of 34.

192614759New Preston CT: Bernhardt Wall 1926. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. In his introduction to this book Wall explains that he had purchase an old two-volume set of The Spectator at a secondhand bookstore when he was a child. The tale printed here was a favorite of young Bernhardt. It is supposedly Addison's translation of a story about a man who as a joke was wrapped up like a mummy and then placed in bed between two beautiful naked women who teased him all night long.<br /> <br /> Wall's illustrations for the story are cartoonish not unlike the work for many of his postcards. But there are two other etchings near the front of the book of an entirely different character dark and moody. In one a ghostly figure kneels on a grave and in another a man tortured after death tries to catch a fish in his teeth while his arms are restrained. Wall also includes portraits of Addison and Plato in this volume.<br /> <br /> Published in an edition of 150 copies this is number 10.<br /> <br /> 21 etched leaves including eight text plates. The title page is dated 1925 and the copyright is dated 1926. Wall was a prolific designer of humorous postcards in the early twentieth century some 5000 designs are attributed to him. Beginning in the 1920s he began producing short books entirely comprised of etchings—both text and illustrations were engraved on copper plates and printed by Wall in his shop in Connecticut. The subjects were intensely personal and the illustrations were iconoclastic. First edition first printing. Very good in paper-covered boards with a cloth spine. A sort of leather label is affixed around the spine at the top of the book. It is partially worn away possible with loss of the title. Signed by Wall on the limitation page. Bernhardt Wall hardcover
