1943510523Editions de la Revue Verve 1943. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. VERY GOOD/Very Good. COMPLETE with both original Matisse lithographs--title page and La Chute d'Icare. With the very scarce original manilla dust jacket with Matisse's green drawing matching the green and white paper-cutout lithographed paper-over-board covers which are often mistaken for the dust jacket. Tall 4to 35.5cm. Covers torn along front hinge about 3' dj torn 5' at the same small puncture 2/3 up the spine. Internal contents exceedingly clean and sharp. Matisse's pochoir study of The Fall of Icarus was his first of two the latter appearing in Jazz published in 1945 by Teriade. Created in 1943 with Nazi troops occupying the streets outside his apartment in Paris it has been suggested that they were the referent for his falling image. 'In the final decades of his life Matisse invented a new form of art the cut-out. Working with scissors and sheets of gouache-painted paper he cut various shapes—from the organic to the geometric—and arranged them into lively compositions. Cut-outs formed the prototypes for the printed images . which Matisse insisted remain absolutely faithful to the original colors. In response the publisher Teriade turned to pochoir a stencil printing technique in which the same gouaches could be used.' MOMA. Editions de la Revue Verve hardcover
1940510631Editions de la Revue Verve 1940. First Edition. Hardcover. FINE/NEAR FINE. First American Edition with tipped in 'Occupation of Paris' notice. Tall 4to 35.5cm. sewn binding in Henri Matisse-designed lighograph printed cover on black paper over cards often mistaken for the DJ itself with original brown kraft paper lithographed dust jacket. The dust jacket was often treated as a throwaway especially since it was taped over making it impossible to see the beautiful Matisse covers without tearing it; they are quite uncommonly seen. We have not attempted removing the dust jacket here though we have supplied a photograph from another copy showing the design. This is a unique opportunity to for a collector to have not only a copy of the book as issued with the jacket but a uniquely clean and fresh copy of the cover itself entombed within the protection of the jacket. The book itself is exceedingly clean and sharp. Illustrated throughout in color and black and white with contributions from Verve's usual suspects: Matisse Miro Picasso Rouault Braque and a spectacular center-fold lithograph by Pierre Bonnard. In spite of the statement in the 'Occupation notice that half the American edition was lost this is not a terribly scarce book -- perhaps because subscribers immediately recognized the significance of what it represented namely the destruction of the thriving modern art movement in France at the hands of the neo-classical obsessed Nazis. But the jacket and condition make this an uncommon survival. Editions de la Revue Verve hardcover

1937510540Verve 1937. First Edition. Paperback. FINE. Complete run of the first four issues of Teriade's legendary art magazine. Beginning with a stunning cover produced by Matisse for the first issue Verve would incorporate fresh artwork into its cover designed newly commissioned by artists such as Miro Picasso Chagall and other leading lights of the French art world. Each issue offered spectacular color lithographs printed by the Paris lithographers Mourlot. Early issues came in litho-printed card wrappers in boxes later volumes would be in paper-over board with litho covers. This choce allowed Teriade to feature the fresh lithographic artwork in the cover design but left the books themselves extremely fragile and succeptible to wear. Additionally the full-page lithographs have been continuous targets for art dealers looking to excise the plates. So condition seen here is quite rare with each volume preserved COMPLETE FINE with no signs of the wear and toning so commonly seen. 'The cover of Verve No. 1 is by Henri Matisse; it consists of three unmodulated colors--red blue and black--that the master cut directly from printers' ink specimen books. . Mattisse's cover for the first issue lithographed by Fernand Mourlot printers was an original work of art created expressly for the magazine--as would be practically all of the Verve's covers. . The painter took great pains to make sure that the cover would turn out exactly as he wished. . THe care Matisse lavished on what others might consider a minor undertaking was one of the hallmarks of Teriade's publications. How did he induce the greatest artists of this century to give the very best of themelves . Matisse and Teriade shared a common ideal. For both of them painting was life itself.'
