He began writing when in 1876 fellow naval officers persuaded him to turn passages in his diary dealing with some curious experiences at Istanbul into a novel. He proceeded to the South Seas as part of his naval training and several years after leaving Tahiti published the Polynesian idyll originally named Rarahu 1880 which was reprinted as Le Mariage de Loti; this was followed by Le Roman d'un spahi 1881 a record of the melancholy adventures of a soldier in Senegal. In 1882 Loti issued a collection of four shorter pieces three stories and a travel piece under the general title of Fleurs d'ennui. In 1890 he published Au Maroc the record of a journey to Fez in company with a French embassy and Le Roman d'un enfant a somewhat fictionalized recollection of Loti's childhood that would greatly influence Marcel Proust. A collection of "strangely confidential and sentimental reminiscences" called Le Livre de la piti et de la mort was published in 1891. Includes a frontispiece to 'Les Desenchantees' and publishers advertisments to each. Includes fourteen volumes each complete in their own right. In French.

189773993Paris: Imprimerie Champenoispour CH. MassonH. Piazza 1897. Fine. Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza Paris Novembre 1897 24 x 35 cm une feuille et une serpente Rare original color lithograph executed by Jacques Wely for L'Estampe Moderne series number 7 published in November 1897. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on Japan paper with wide margins artist's signature and date in the plate publisher's dry stamp depicting a child's profile in the lower margin numbered stamp of the deluxe printing on the verso minimal corner damage of no consequence; engraving preceded by a tissue guard captioned with the artist's name title and a poem; blank tissue guard. Lithograph inspired by a text by Pierre Loti from his novel Mon frère Yves of which an extract is reproduced on the print's tissue guard. Magnificent French monthly publication issued between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consists of original chromolithographs which unlike other magazines such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specially by each artist for the magazine. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late 19th century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Époque. Each issue of four prints was printed in 2000 copies sold for 3.50F and 100 on Japan paper offered at 10F. Henri Piazza also planned a confidential deluxe printing: 50 copies on Japan paper with wide margins and 50 in black on China paper at the considerable price of 30F. This print in a handsome format is superbly printed on the most prestigious of papers: Japan. Thick silky satin and pearlescent it contributes to making each page a work in its own right. Its quality of ink absorption and its affinity with colors also make it the ideal support for these very fine lithographs. French collectors' interest in artistic posters intensified in the early 1890s. Octave Uzanne to describe this fever invented the term ""affichomanie."" The poster originally popular and plastered on the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and destined for preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising vocation and elevate it to the rank of a complete work of art on the same level as the luxury illustrated book. He thus composed a prestigious collection of entirely original works by the most prominent European artists of the moment: Georges de Feure Eugène Grasset Henri Detouche Emile Berchmans Louis Rhead Gaston de Latenay Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer Gustave-Max Stevens Charles Doudelet Hans Christiansen Henri Fantin-Latour Steinlen Ibels Engels Willette Henri Meunier Evenepoël Bellery-Desfontaines Charles Léandre etc. Handsome copy in the Belle Époque style.
