19001869s.l., ca 1900. 35 X 26 cm (planches), environ 6 x 8 cm, 7,5 x 8,5 cm, 8 x 11 cm, (photos). 9 planches. Ensemble de 50 photographies originales sur papier, réparties sur 9 planches, titrées et illustrées à la main, à l'encre et à la gouache. Les photographies retracent un parcours touristique en Belgique, de la Grand Place et des rues de Bruxelles au bois de La Cambre, en passant par le célèbre Manneken Pis, de la gare du Midi à la Bourse et à Laeken, puis dans plusieurs quartiers de Bruges (quais, Grand' Place, églises, beffroi et cathédrale...), avec un cliché du tramway à vapeur de Han à Rochefort, les alentours du port et de la gare d'Ostende, et enfin Anvers, ses gares, son port, sa cathédrale, son jardin zoologique... De nombreuses illustrations ornent également les planches : les armoiries de chaque ville sont représentées, des paysages (à l'encre ou à l'aquarelle et à la gouache) complètent les photographies, des personnages animent les marges, sans oublier frises, décors, vignettes et ornementations diverses. Tous les titres bénéficient d'un travail particulier de la typographie. Très intéressant ensemble, qui reflète une certaine diffusion sociale de la pratique photographique - au sein de l'élite bourgeoise - à la fin du XIXe siècle, en lien avec l'évolution des techniques, à la fois en ce qui concerne la prise de vue et les procédés de tirage. Equipés d'appareils d'utilisation de plus en plus aisée, de nombreux amateurs immortalisent alors les petits et grands moments de la vie de tous les jours, constituant albums de souvenirs et collections privées qui consacrent le rôle désormais essentiel de l'image dans la culture de la Belle Epoque. L'auteur de ces clichés, qui ne manquait ni d'humour ni de talent, a par ailleurs enrichi son travail artisanal d'autres éléments esthétiques : décors et ornements graphiques issus de l'univers du livre (imitant fleurons,bandeaux, culs-de-lampe, séparations de chapitres...), dessins "classiques" (paysages, portraits), inspirés du mouvement Art Nouveau ou influencés par la presse et l'affiche (typographie fantaisiste, caricatures,...).
16-6449Circa 1920s-1930s. Original ink drawing. 25 x 32 cm. A tiger berates an elephant driver with 2 female passengers for yelling at him. "Charléno aka Carlo is regarded as one of the two or three most talented and striking artists who provided illustrations to the French erotic book trade in Paris during the 1920s and 1930s. His work is held in the highest esteem along with that of Cheri Herouard and another more mysterious illustrator called ‘Wighead.’ Carlo is celebrated for his strong lines and forms which are nonetheless coupled with the most delicate treatment of fabrics such as lace and satin and most importantly a unique and bold imaginative vision.Surprisingly though despite his popularity with the book buying public at the time and the subsequent collectability of his illustrations very little is known about Carlo; all that can be stated with any confidence is the dates when he was active: between about 1910 and the mid-1930s. Readers may sometimes see these given as birth and death dates of 1900 to 1930; this can be disregarded. Whoever our artist was he must have been born around 1890 if not earlier to become old enough and skilled enough to find employment by the second decade of the twentieth century. We simply don’t know why his output ceased in 1936." Provenance: Jacques Cathy - Né en 1906 à Lezay Deux-Sèvres Jacques Cathy a exercé d’abord la profession de caricaturiste à l’hebdomadaire « Le Rire ». Il a rejoint vers 1927 l’équipe du Cabaret « La Vache Enragée » conduite par Roger Toziny. Jacques Cathy poursuit sa carrière de chansonnier après le décès de Toziny en 1939 et après la guerre il conduit parallèlement une carrière d’acteur dans le cinéma. Jacques Cathy était le 3ème Maire de La Commune Libre de Montmartre à partir de l’élection en 1949.Final provenance: Les Collections Aristophil - 164 bis avenue Charles-de-Gaulle 92200 Neuilly-sur-Seine.
