ill. Uno sguardo al percorso artistico di uno dei grand maestri della seconda metà del XX secolo, capace di raggiungere la sensibilità più recondita dell'individuo con immagini emblematiche della violenza e dell'angoscia caratteristiche della nostra epoca. La sua opera, dai piccoli intensissimi ritratti ai monumentali trittici, risulta contraddistinta da valenze simboliche del tutto personali, ricche di allusioni cinematografiche, letterarie e religiose, ed è sostenuta da un'eccezionale perizia esecutiva e da una profonda partecipazione emotiva.

Seconde édition qui contient, outre l'"Analyse", "La Vie de François Bacon" (tome I, p. 1-199), adaptation par Pouillot de "The Life of Francis Bacon" de David Mallet ; "Essai sur la reine Elisabeth" traduction de "Felix memoria Elizabethae" dû à Francis Bacon et "Eloges du chancelier François Bacon". Collaborateur à l'Encyclopédie, lié à Diderot, Rousseau, Condillac, proche de Montesquieu, Deleyre fut élu député montagnard à la Convention. Cette minutieuse étude sur la philosophie de Bacon contribua, dès la première édition (1755), à propager les doctrines du philosophe anglais et à asseoir sa notoriété auprès des hommes des Lumières. Naigeon inséra cette étude à l'article "Bacon" du "Dictionnaire de la Philosophie" de l'Encyclopédie méthodique Panckoucke. Quelques infimes accrocs à la reliure. Très bon exemplaire, frais, bien relié.

'Captain Bacon may be described as a typical Territorial officer, but it must be added that he is a lucky one.

Then to France in 1918 for the victorious offensive' (Falls). VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. Enser, p.258; Falls, p.178.

8vo., with decorative title and pictorial endpapers; early series binding of maroon full leatherette, upper board blocked in gilt, gilt back, gilt top, radial corners, ribbon marker, backstrip chipped at tail else a very good, bright, clean copy. The most elaborate of the four original binding styles, full leatherette was introduced at the commencement of the series and discontinued around 1919 (see Seymour pp.103).

SOLE APPEARANCE THUS IN EVERYMAN. The EL full leatherette binding (1906-c.1917) faithfully reflects the art deco movement of the period. By far the most elegant of all the EL series bindings, it is notoriously fragile and seldom found in bright, sound state as here. VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. EL 10; Seymour 46.0.
