One gathering slightly protruding in vol. 2. Internally excellent.; Complete with 77 plates; 4to 11" - 13" tall; "One of the key figures in establishing the new aesthetic at the Qing court was the Italian Jesuit Giuseppe Castiglione 1688-1766 whose illusionist approach to painting revolutionized Qing court art. Castiglione served at the Qing court for fifty years working under the Chinese name Lang Shining. A master of vividly naturalistic draftsmanship and large-scale compositions in Italy and Portugal he had worked as a muralist Castiglione successfully combined Western realism with traditional Chinese conventions of brushwork in a manner that suited the imperial taste. Descriptively complex technically finished and monumental in scale Castiglione's vividly realistic painting style perfectly served the emperor's documentary purposes as well as his predilection for self-promotion on a grandiose scale".

1913172668Paris: Goupil & Cie 1913. The most famous woman in Paris First edition of the Parisian aesthete's sumptuously illustrated biography. Castiglione 1837-1899 was a self-fashioned icon of high society whose extensive portfolio as a photographic model made her a major figure in the medium's early history. "La Castiglione was one of the first celebrated women to realize the iconic potential of the camera in this first period of photography. She was aware of the necessity for control a concern to use the camera rather than let the camera use her. Her chosen studio Mayer and Pierson made over seven hundred images of her an enterprise that in photography's earliest years represented a considerable investment in time and effort" Badger p. 51. She performed a wide variety of identities in her highly staged portraits including mythical historical seductive and grotesque. The fame resulting from her enigmatic images earned her significant political influence: her affair with Napoleon III likely contributed to Italian unification and Otto von Bismarck met with her to discuss the strategic importance of Paris following the Franco-Prussian war. Although he never met Castiglione Montesquiou 1855-1921 was enraptured by her reputation and collected hundreds of her photographs the majority of which are now held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. A fellow photography enthusiast - he aspired to be the most photographed person in the world - he was also a Symbolist poet painter and dandy. Quarto 273 x 195 mm.
