A Large Paper Copy. Cohen-de Ricci 652-53; Ray 2A. Four small very faint water spots to boards one plate somewhat foxed in all other ways A GORGEOUS COPY clean and fresh internally with immense margins and in an unworn binding.<br/> <br/> This exceptionally desirable copy of Longus' unique combination of decadence and sweet innocence is printed on quarto-sized paper enhanced with engravings from some of the greatest Rococo illustrators and offered in an exquisite binding by a modern Parisian master. The charming pastoral novel appears here in the popular translation of Jacques Amyot 1513-93 first printed in 1559 and always recognized for its graceful style. The illustrations were created in 1714 by Philippe duc d'Orléans and Regent of France 1674-1723 engraved by Benoît Audran and published for the first time in 1718. Although Ray indicates that Philippe's work is clearly an amateur's he says that the plates "do tell the story in their halting way and the background landscapes in some of the larger plates have a naïve appeal." The plates were re-engraved for our 1745 printing and the always elegantly graceful tailpiece vignettes by Charles-Nicholas Cochin were created for this edition. Cochin 1715-90 is generally considered on a par with the three Rococo masters Gravelot Eisen and Moreau. Ray notes that works from his early career like the engravings here "are marked not only by the mastery of outline and firmness of composition which never deserted him but also by acute observation and unpretentious humor." Our volume also contains an extra plate by the Comte de Caylus omitted from some copies for its suggestive nature as it shows the feet of the entwined lovers Mon Dieu! protruding from the privacy of a grotto. Additionally a previous owner added four engravings created for the 1754 Longus by the great Charles Eisen 1720-78 Louis XV's Court painter and drawing master to Madame de Pompadour. Ray describes him as "the master of the small design" with "a marvelous talent for pleasing." The beauty of this copy was further--and gloriously--enhanced ca. 1910 when binder René Kieffer created the striking binding with its bouquets of fantastical flowers in a riot of colors and gold. Kieffer 1875-1963 was in the first class of students to graduate from the École Étienne where he concentrated on becoming a doreur learning to tool gold designs in the well-established style. After leaving school he worked for Chambolle-Duru until 1898 at which time he established his own studio. According to Duncan & De Bartha he "became a disciple of Marius Michel moving gradually away from his traditional training towards a more emblematic and modern style." He would become one of the most innovative and progressive binders in Paris in the 20th century earning a well-deserved reputation for producing widely variable bindings that defied typification. s.n. unknown
