1919004965England 1919. Cloth. Near Fine. Lovely meticulously rendered vignette illustrations framing the key letter on each page and on a few pages two vignettes. Oblong 9 by 13 cm. 28 pp. The album opens to a particularly nice pen and ink drawing of a schooner framed with highly decorative foliate baroque ornamentation. The first poem is Kipling's "If" each letter device accompanied by a painting of a different type of sail boat or ship. Ship motives are used again in "Love at Sea" by Swinburne. Another Kipling poem "The Explanation" is enlivened with paintings of colorful expressive fish. In our judgment these are the most charismatic of the illustrations. Other poems include Swinburne's "Rondel" "Before Sunset" "Song" and "Child's Song"; and some verses by Sappho. Other illustrative motives take in dragons flowers and floral daipers butterflies and coasts. The poems are rendered in a neat calligraphic hand and it is very easy to imagine this manuscript as something that might have been published as a gift book. unknown

Conservé à l'état d'origine dans un splendide coffret en maroquin doublé de Cretté. - Notes bibliographiques (pour ceux qui prennent le temps): « La Princesse Boudour est regardée par ceux qui savent voir, comme le livre capital de ce premier quart de siècle. Par sa graphie et sa technique générale, elle est une exception préméditée dans le faire de son auteur. Pour la réaliser, il s’est véritablement amusé, cette fois – en tant que lecteur enthousiaste des Mille nuits et une nuit - à commenter graphiquement le texte qu’il connaît si bien et dont il est comme imbibé [...]. Il nous a [...] octroyé le délectable cadeau de trois cent quatre-vingt-dix vignettes et en couleur, et toutes différentes, et qui se rapportent au texte [...]. Et cette munificence schmiedienne n’est-elle pas, en définitive, l’exaltation de notre modernité, et en conformité avec nos goûts, du faire des imagiers incomparables de l’Orient ? [...]. Avec quel attendrissement, avec quelle passion sourde et contenue, qui n’appartient qu’à lui, il a rendu, au moyen des fragiles outils du graveur et du coloriste, la grâce masculine des adolescents, et la tendre chair de banane des radieuses jouvencelles ! [...] Je pense que s’il fallait absolument appliquer une épithète au sourire des adolescentes schmiediennes, et même à celui des adolescents, rien ne leur conviendrait mieux que le mot ambigü... Une atmosphère de pures délices enveloppe cette oeuvre boudourienne, multiple, voluptueuse, spirituelle, et d’une telle essence d’authentique Orient qu’elle nous fait vraiment respirer tous les parfums de l’Arabie. » (Préface du catalogue de l’exposition Schmied à la galerie Arnold Seligmann Rey à New York, mars 1927, pp. 34-37).
