185070018Paris: Chez Aubert & Cie 1850-51. First Edition First Issue of one of the two earliest and most rare of all Doré's illustrated books. Only Les Travaux d'Hercule precedes this book and like the Trois Artistes Incompris et Mecontens is very rarely if ever seen in commerce. Illustrated with an engraved title-page as the upper cover illustration of the book and over 150 woodcut illustrations throughout. Folio publisher's original and earliest binding of pictorially illustrated yellow paper over boards the upper cover with all-over illustrations printed in red and black. 1 25 pp. A well preserved and handsome copy of this very rare and fragile book some expert and unobtrusive strengthening at the tips and edges a book seldom if ever encountered and even then nearly always with very considerable wear and breakage. FIRST EDITION OF ONE OF THE EARLIEST AND MOST RARE OF DORÉ'S ILLUSTRATED WORKS. 'At 15 years of age Doré had begun his career working as a caricaturist for the French paper Le journal pour rire. Wood-engraving was his primary method at this time. In the late 1840s and early 1850s he made several text comics like Les Travaux d'Hercule 1847 Trois artistes incompris et mécontents 1850-1 Les Dés-agréments d'un voyage d'agrément 1851 and L'Histoire de la Sainte Russie 1854 but subsequently went on to win commissions to depict scenes from books by Cervantes Rabelais Balzac Milton and Dante. He also illustrated "Gargantua et Pantagruel" in 1854.<br> 'Trois Artists is a fascinating book.but dating the Trois Artistes original is a bibliographical challenge. The earliest Journal pour Rire advertisement was in November 29 1850 and the book itself has a Dec. 1850 date in the publisher's catalogue. The second larger Journal pour Rire advertisement was dated January 31 1851 and the book was listed by February 11 1851 in Bibliographie de la France. Whether December or January the book remains along with Les Travaux d'Hercule the most rare of Gustave Doré's illustrated books and one of the earliest "comic books" produced.<br> Gustave Doré 1832-1883 was described by Saturday Review as “The <br>most startling art phenomenon in Europe; his genius at each turn changes like the colors in a kaleidescope into something new and unexpected.†The Fine Arts Quarterly Review also wrote: “Doré is a great and marvelous genius a poet a nation produces once in a thousand years. He is the most imaginative the profoundest the most productive poet that ever sprang from the French race.†These are 1860s quotes from England about a French artist. What did Doré actually do He created a series of dozens of literary folios with thousands of full-page engravings that are still being borrowed today in hundreds of popular culture genres. The Doré phenomenon was all the more remarkable because he was being viciously attacked by British elitists like John Ruskin who asserted that Doré was the Devil come to destroy the morality of the British public who were unsophisticated peasants. But those “unsophisicated peasants†who admired Doré art included the Queen of England the Prince of Wales the Poet Laureate Charles Dickens plus Leo Tolstoy Mark Twain not to mention the Pope. Doré’s <br>dramatic mystical otherworldly imagery transcended dimensions of the physical and the spiritual. While other illustrators showed people standing in a room talking Doré showed images of Spiral Nebula Flying Saucers the depths of Hell and the opening of Heaven in his folios for Dante Milton Tennyson The Bible Rabelais Shakespeare Fairy Tales Fables Don Quixote Baron Munchausen The Ancient Mariner Doré’s social commentary masterpiece London A Pilgrimage and Poe’s The Raven which Doré did not live to see published. Doré was a creative geniuses with unlimited imagination. <br> Consider that Gustave Doré at the age of 15 years and a diminutive teenager walked into the office of Charles Philipon to show his drawings. It is said that he looked to be about 12. Philipon was mesmerized as Doré created new <br>drawings with lightning-fast rapidity right before his eyes. Shortly thereafter a book appeared with a most curious introduction by the Aubert Publishing Company that read “The Labours of Hercules was written drawn and lithographed by a 15-year-old artist who has no teacher or art training.†Thus began the art career of the most prolific and popular illustrator of all time. He wrote and drew several “comic books†before he began the transition to Literary Folios Painting & Sculpture. But the only other edition of Doré’s Hercules in 145 years was a German edition in 1922. Charles Philipon’s company Aubert contracted with Doré'’s father to hire the boy to draw for his Journal pour Rire and Doré had over a thousand engravings published while still a teenager. In 1850 TROIS ARTISTES INCOMPRIS ET MÉCONTENS Three Misunderstood Malcontent Artists with 155 drawings was published. One of the two earliest and now most rare of the young genius's books. And one of the earliest of all "comic books".<br> Considering his illustrations for Cervantes's Don Quixote his depictions of the knight and his squire Sancho Panza have become so famous that they have influenced subsequent readers artists and stage and film directors' ideas of the physical "look" of the two characters. Doré also illustrated an oversized edition of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" an endeavor that earned him 30000 francs from publisher Harper & Brothers in 1883.<br> Doré's illustrations for the Bible 1866 were a great success and in 1867 Doré had a major exhibition of his work in London. This exhibition led to the foundation of the Doré Gallery in Bond Street London. In 1869 Blanchard Jerrold the son of Douglas William Jerrold suggested that they work together to produce a comprehensive portrait of London. Jerrold had obtained the idea from The Microcosm of London produced by Rudolph Ackermann William Pyne and Thomas Rowlandson published in three volumes from 1808 to 1810. Doré signed a five-year contract with the publishers Grant & Co that involved his staying in London for three months a year and he received the vast sum of Å10000 a year for the project. Doré was mainly celebrated for his paintings in his day. His paintings remain world-renowned but his woodcuts and engravings like those he did for Jerrold are where he excelled as an artist with an individual vision.<br>The completed book London: A Pilgrimage with 180 wood-engravings was published in 1872. It enjoyed commercial and popular success but the work was disliked by many contemporary critics. Some of these critics were concerned by the fact that Doré appeared to focus on the poverty that existed in parts of London. Doré was accused by The Art Journal of "inventing rather than copying". The Westminster Review claimed that "Doré gives us sketches in which the commonest the vulgarest external features are set down". The book was a financial success however and Doré received commissions from other British publishers.<br> Doré's later work included illustrations for new editions of Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner Milton's Paradise Lost Tennyson's Idylls of the King The Works of Thomas Hood and The Divine Comedy. Doré's work also appeared in the weekly newspaper The Illustrated London News.' Wiki Chez Aubert & Cie hardcover
