Antigas Fazendas de Cafe da Provincia Fluminense The Old Coffee Estates of the Fluminense Provence ASSOCIATION COPY - once owned by Claudio Arrau

198016020555Rio de Janeiro: Nova Fronteira Memoria Brasileira 1980. Hardcover. Near Fine. Folio size 124 pp. inscribed by Claudio Arrau. A little-known work on the great coffee plantations of the nineteenth century in the area around Rio de Janeiro. Coffee first started to appear in the area around 1760 and by 1822 there were plantations in the area with more than fifty thousand coffee plants with massive tracts of rainforest being cleared first from the vicinity of Rio and later Sao Paulo for coffee growing. The families owning the plantations built huge homes some of them almost small castles - one of which the Parque Sao Clemente had ceilings so beautiful that special reclining chairs were installed so that they could be better admired. This book explores those fazendas both inside and out to provide a glimpse into this glittering past. The text of the book is in Portuguese and an accompanying softcover book has the English translation. This volume was previously owned by Claudio Arrau 1903-1991 a Chilean pianist widely considered one of the greatest pianists of the twentieth century. ___DESCRIPTION: Quarter tan cloth with black paper boards pictorial paste-down of one of the plantation houses inset into the front board with titlte in silver brown lettering on the spine decorative endpapers of stylised palm trees title page in red and black with a small tipped-in photograph tipped-in colour photographs throughout drawn map towards the rear of the book showing the location of the fazendas along the Rio Paraiba do Sul; folio size 13.75" by 10.5" pagination: i-iii 1-2 3-111 112-121 inscribed by Claudio Arrau "Rio de Janeiro 1981" on the first flyleaf.
