"When Georges Braque was preparing a series of etchings of birds to be published on the occasion of his eightieth birthday it was learned that St.-John Perse had just completed a poem on the theme of birds. The poet agreed to permit the first publication in the limited edition L'Ordre des Oiseaux with twelve original etchings by Braque. The four reproduced in this book were inspired directly by the poem. Among his last works these etchings mark a change from the static forms in Braque's earlier plates to a more dynamic conception. Perse on his part added to his text several pages of aesthetic meditation referring mainly to the metamorphic vision of the painter and to Braque's birds in general. Braque who with Picasso created cubism and carried it to noble poetic heights embodied in the four plates he created for Perse a generalized sense of power flight grace and space. The poet moves in his text from a particular observation of the flight of birds to reflections on the significance of their movement through space and its impact on man's consciousness. He uses the birds of Braque by relating the process of changing form in flight to the changing form of an etching as the artist carries it through its several states. Robert Fitzgerald poet and Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory at Harvard University translated St.-John Perse's Chronique and three lyric plays by Paul Valery published in Bollingen Series."

"Le texte de Pierre Reverdy Une aventure méthodique est orné de vingt-six lithographies originales de Georges Braque qui a également exécuté la couverture & une lithographie en couleurs pour le frontispice de cet ouvrage." "In his essay on Braque Reverdy views as a unity the thirty-five years of the painter's activity. this poet had more than any other the background and aesthetic insight to elucidate the painter's aims and preoccupations. Braque without leaving the world of every man's experience has revealed new images new depths which utter like destiny truths which no one else could have brought to light." Renée Riese Hubert "Georges Braque & the French Poets." Books Abroad vol. 37 no. 4 1963 pp. 389-90. Reverdy writes "I assert that Georges Braque has undertaken and successfully carried out in his life and his experience as a painter a methodical adventure. For at the start and heading toward the future there was nothing but unknown." In Dora Vallier's catalogue raisonné of Braque's graphic works no. 49 she notes that although the project was initiated by Mourlot the book was actually published by Maeght. Fernand Mourlot
