Maroquin à mastic dos lisse muet large pièce mosaïqué en box crème titre doré souligné par un jeu de vagues du même box estampé à froid et rehaussé de filets de pointillés à la guache lila contreplats et gardes de velours beige couverture illustrée et dos conservés reliure signée de N. Kiyomiya 2004. . Édition ornée de 42 pointes-sèches en couleurs tirées sur Rives dont un frontispice et un hors-texte. Tirage à 130 exemplaires n° 107. Les 13 pages de la préface sont également illustrées d'une ornementation végétale encadrant le texte œuvre de Malo Renault. . Né à Saint-Malo le 5 octobre 1870 il se spécialise d'abord dans l'eau-forte puis le vernis mou avant d'aborder à la pointe-sèche à l'occasion de cette édition commandée par les Cent bibliophiles pour lesquels il grave sur bois l'estampe du menu en utilisant quatre planches pour les quatre couleurs. Le Jardin de Bérénice troisième volet de la trilogie romanesque que Barrès intitula Le Culte du moi est publié en 1896. Cette fable allégorique magnifie la contemplation et l'imagination qui fait comprendre les choses du coeur : il raconte l'histoire d'un jeune intellectuel Philippe qui vient d'adhérer au programme du général Boulanger - on est en 1889 - et qui part plein d'enthousiasme pour la Provence organiser une campagne électorale - il brigue la députation à Arles. Mais c'est à Aigues-Mortes qu'il retrouve Bérénice une ancienne connaissance qu'il ne cesse de contempler « si belle dans son jardin » : il découvre pour la première fois l'harmonie de la vie et pense trouver dans le cadre de ce jardin et grâce à l'amour de cette femme la signification secrète de l'univers. Cette romance - qui prendra une tournure tragique - est particulièrement mise en valeur grâce aux pointes-sèches en couleur de Malo-Renault pseudonyme d'Émile Auguste Renault. 1922 marque un tournant dans son oeuvre qui se tourne dès lors vers la représentation de la grâce féminine la mutinerie et la naïveté des enfants. Influencé par l'oeuvre d'Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec et l'art japonais la richesse de ses tons et ses compositions hautement décoratives sont celles d'un coloriste de premier ordre.

178134986London: J. F. W. Des Barres 1781. Engraved with aquatint on single double-page sheet watermarked "J. Bates." Excellent condition with minor repairs along centerfold. Detailed depiction of the mouth of the Miramachi River in New Brunswick and Miramachi Bay in the Gulf of St. Larwence.<br/> <br/> Des Barres of Swiss-Huguenot extraction studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before continuing on to the Royal Military College at Woolwich. Upon the outbreak of hostilities with France in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of General James Wolfe who appointed him to join his personal detail. During this period he also worked with the future legendary explorer James Cook on a monumental chart of the St. Lawrence River. From 1762 Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence while his colleague Samuel Holland charted the New England coast. He also managed to gain access to some surveys of the American South Cuba and Jamaica. In 1774 Des Barres returned to England where he began work on The Neptune. His dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views up until 1784. That year he returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner and living to the advanced age of 103. The Atlantic Neptune the most celebrated sea atlas contained the first systematic survey of the east coast of North America. Des Barres's synergy of great empirical accuracy with the peerless artistic virtue of his aquatint views created a work that "has been described as the most splendid collection of charts plates and views ever published" National Maritime Museum Catalogue. Upon the conclusion of the Seven Years War Britain's empire in North America was greatly expanded and this required the creation of a master atlas featuring new and accurate sea charts for use by the Royal Navy. Des Barres was charged with this Herculean task publishing the first volume in London in 1775 which was soon followed by three further volumes. Des Barres's monumental endeavor eventually featured over two-hundred charts and views many being found in several states. Des Barres's charts were immensely detailed featuring both hydrographical and topographical information and in many cases remained the most authoritative maps of the regions covered for several decades. The survey of the St. Lawrence River and Gulf was conducted by Samuel Holland who provided many charts to the immense hydrographic enterprise realized in the Atlantic Neptune. This is the fourth state of the map with the imprint date changed to 1781.<br/> <br/> HNS 131D; Spendlove The Face of Early Canada Chapter 4: "J.F.W.

Du moins j'y ai votre conversation écrite si claire rapide souple intéressante ces pages pas fabriquées mais jaillissantes et si aimables ! Je vois que je ne vous déplairais en vous disant que je vous apparente à celle de madame Millet. Robinel que j'ai tant lue quand j'étais enfant parce qu'elle était un des livres de notre maison et que je vous tiens pour sa cousine mais une dame de Paris auprès d'une importante fermière et puis aussi mais cette fois je vous choquerai. Je vous rapproche des livres de Michelet dont la ""mare-polémiste"" sait bien les élans et le goût. Au milieu de ses foules il a bien marqué comment l'homme d'action a besoin de la campagne française. Nul doute que vous n'ayez guère le petit malade mais comment vous a-t-il surpris si brusquement et réduit à une intervention chirurgicale dans les deux heures vous qui surveillez et qui défiez dans vos flots d'eau chaude et savonneuse les microbes farouches Excusez moi cette taquinerie que je regrettais bien profondément si je ne pensais si je n'étais pas sûr que vous êtes hors de souci. Au revoir chère madame amitiés de ma femme pour vous et pour Léon et bien respectueusement vôtre Barrès. Mirabeau jeudi.""

At least I have your written conversation there so clear rapid supple interesting these pages not manufactured but springing forth and so amiable! I see that I would not displease you in saying that I relate you to that of Madame Millet. Robinel whom I read so much when I was a child because it was one of the books of our house and whom I consider you her cousin but a Parisian lady beside an important farmer's wife and then also but this time I will shock you. I bring you close to Michelet's books whose ""mare-polemicist"" well knows the impulses and taste. In the midst of his crowds he clearly marked how the man of action needs the French countryside. No doubt that you hardly have the little patient but how did he surprise you so suddenly and reduce you to surgical intervention within two hours you who monitor and defy in your streams of hot soapy water the fierce microbes Excuse me this teasing that I would deeply regret if I did not think if I were not sure that you are beyond worry.
