Rare and handsome copy housed in a contemporary binding by Carayon. Renard and Vallotton the foreign nabi had met in the offices of La Revue Blanche a famous avant-garde journal which frequently featured Vallotton's woodcuts and published numerous contributions by Jules Renard. The writer invited Vallotton to illustrate this ""other first edition of Poil de Carotte which includes 5 previously unpublished stories: My dear Vallotton Would it amuse you to illustrate - in complete freedom - Poil de Carotte for Flammarion Renard wrote him in a letter dated June 21 1902. Vallotton was chosen ahead of Toulouse-Lautrec and Alexandre Steinlen two other great artists of the time who had shown an interest in the project. Renard's affinity with Vallotton's style is easy to understand as Vallotton's raw simplicity perfectly matches Poil de Carotte's incisive depiction of a loveless childhood: A few words a few lines are enough for these two artists. They both ruthlessly cut away the superfluous Léon Guichard L'Interprétation graphique cinématographique et musicale des uvres de Jules Renard. Flammarion hardcover

The goal was the establishment of a new permanent venture for art exhibitions that was to become the center of the arts in the Rhinelands and Westfalia. Lueg took the lead and started the planing for the Kunstpalast already in 1898.
