Casanova's exploits beautifully illustrated First edition thus first printing number 226 of 414 copies printed on velin d'arches paper of a total print run of 500. The text is extracted from Casanova's memoirs describing his relationship with "M.M." a nun from the convent at Murano. This edition is beautifully illustrated by Gerda Wegener likely using her wife Lili Elbe as a model. Gerda Wegener 1886-1940 was a Danish artist working in art deco and art nouveau styles known for her eroticized depictions of women her pioneering reconsideration of the female gaze in portraiture and her stunningly decadent backgrounds which are well-exemplified here. In 1925 Wegener represented France at the world exhibition in Paris where she was awarded two gold and one bronze medals. Wegener was married to fellow artist Lili Elbe having met at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. The two lived in Paris from 1912 where Elbe was one of Wegener's most frequent models. Elbe is also known for being one of the first documented recipients of gender affirming surgery and as the subject of the novel The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff and 2015 film of the same name. 2 vols quarto. Text in French. With 8 full-page colour etchings by Andre Lambert after Wegener's watercolours with tissue guards and wood engraved headpieces initials and vignettes by G. Aubert printed in sepia after her designs. Original plain paper wrappers titles to spines and front covers in black and red edges untrimmed. With the original glassine wrappers.

192611004Paris: Chez l’artiste 16 rue Cassini 1926. 2 volumes. No. 371 of 450 printed on papier vergé d’Arches but this a rare hand-coloured copy. 33 engravings by Sylvain Sauvage engraved in collaboration with Emile-Henri Feltesse including an engraving on each wrapper all expertly hand-coloured in gouache. Tall thin 8vo. loose in the original wrappers each volume with its own maroon cloth backed chemise and both in the matching maroon cloth edged slipcase. Slipcase and chemises with a little wear or rubbing at edges a little darkening to the wrappers but otherwise very good.Sylvain Sauvage 1888-1948 whose real name was Felix Roy was an illustrator and engraver who published his own artist’s books with the imprint of his home in Paris as well as creating illustrations for other publishers. Sauvage had originally intended to produce illustrations to the whole of the memoirs of Casanova but the task was too great so he settled on the erotic story of Casanova and the Nun of Murano - hence it being a singular adventure.<br>His first version was a large paper edition of 75 copies being a portfolio of 20 full page plates and 13 smaller ones which was published in 1920 and quickly sold. In 1924 he produced another portfolio containing 50 watercolours illustrating Casanova’s memoirs. Eventually in 1926 this two volume edition as the first in ‘La rose mal defendue’ The Poorly Protected Rose series.<br>The illustrations included all the original plates in their black and white version. A very few hand-coloured copies exist as here thought to have been coloured by Sauvage for special clients. These have certainly been done by a professional sensitive hand.
