""The idea of illustrating these texts had been suggested by the Bibliophile Jacob Paul Lacroix who had been commissioned by Balzac's widow for the philological revision of the text. The illustrations fall within a caricatural and 'droll' vein; they reveal Gustave Doré's immense talent his attraction to landscape and his ease in portraying grotesque characters as well as in capturing burlesque scenes. 'This illustration is like no other in its powerful originality: it is Gaulish Rabelaisian and sparkling with wit. Doré certainly lavished the best of his talent on the Contes drolatiques. They had no success however and the entire edition was marked down. Today it is one of Doré's most sought-after works"" Leblanc. Garnier frères hardcover

18781433461878. An interesting autograph letter signed G. Doré in French approximately 80 words on 17 lines dated 24 June 1878. The previous year Doré had illustrated Ludovico Ariosto's influential poem Orlando Furioso published in London by Hachette and Co. In 1878 he produced several landscapes including Landscape in Scotland exhibited his woodcut entitled Ganymede at the Cercle de l'Union Artistique and showed sculptures at the Paris Salon. The Daily Telegraph commenting on his works at the Salon observed "It is not often that many-sided genius is so quickly appreciated by the jealous world of art" Conder The Doré Gallery: Descriptive Catalogue of the Pictures by M. Gustave Doré on View at 35 New Bond Street London. The same month Doré gained notice at the Exposition Universelle in Paris for a plaster cast of his eleven-foot vase "Poem of the Vine". Although the vase was the subject of much comment and admiration the sculptor received no awards for it. "There was a great deal of comment on this lack of appreciation evinced by the French for their fellow-countryman especially as 'La Nuit' another of Doré's superb creations occupied a place in one of the interior galleries of the Champs de Mars buildings. It is a curious fact that nowadays most people are of opinion that Doré received a great many medals and was usually one of the most distinguished contributors to the Paris Salon. As a matter of fact he never received one; not even an honorable mention" Roosevelt The Life and Reminiscences of Gustave Doré p. 440. "Cher maitre Pour la troisième fois depuis hier je recois inclus dans des lettres d'amis de Londres le feuillet détaché du Daily Telegraph du 22; c'est vous dire la très vive sensation qu'ont produites là-bas les lignes si chaleureuses que vous m'avez fait l'amitié de consacrer à la description de ma nouvelle oeuvre. Je m'empresse de vous adresser mes plus affectueux remerciements que je ne veux pas tarder d'aller renouveler de vive voix. À vous bien cordialement." "Dear Master For the third time since yesterday I have received included in letters from London friends the page taken from the Daily Telegraph of the 22nd; this is to tell you of the very lively sensation produced there by the warm lines that you so kindly devoted to the description of my new work. I hasten to forward you my most affectionate thanks that before long I hope to renew to you in person." Single sheet of notepaper watermarked "Freres" 204 x 260 mm sometime folded for mailing.

1868120562London: Cassell Petter and Galpin c. 1868. Famous Dore illustrated edition of Cervantes with 120 full-page wood-<span class="glossaryQtip qTip">engravings</span> and 257 head- and tail-pieces by Gustave Dore engraved in the wood by Heliodore Pisan. Quarto bound in contemporary three quarters leather gilt titles to the spine raised bands illustrations by Dore. With text edited by J.W. Clark and a biographical notice of Cervantes by T. Teignmouth Shore. In near fine condition. One can hardly deny that Gustave Dore is not merely one of the most popular but also one of the greatest of all illustrators. Don Quixote was a text calculated to test even Dore. He was matching himself against Coypel and Tony Johannot not to mention the Spanish illustrators of the great Ibarra edition published in Madrid in 1780. He met the challenge superbly. At first he intended only 40 designs but Cervantes' book captured his imagination and he arranged for a major work. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza reached their definitive rendering in Dore's designs" Ray 328-29 337. The English-language edition of Dore's Don Quixote first appeared in 30 monthly parts beginning in December 1864. In September of 1866 Cassell announced the publication of Don Quixote in book form. "In those two and a half years Dore went from being virtually unknown in England to being the most famous illustrator in the world" Malan 67. Cassell, Petter, and Galpin hardcover books
