Very comfortable in political and moral caricatures he is one of the first to give stories in drawings that will soon be called comics and as such occupies a key place in the history of comics in France and among the pioneers of the genre.<br /> <br /> Louis Adrien Huart 1813-1865 was a French journalist writer and theater director. From 1835 he wrote for Le Charivari France's main opposition satirical daily of which he was to become the most assiduous editor. In his literary and theatrical chronicles as well as in his satires of daily political news he constantly approached the legal limit set by censorship without ever exceeding it. Many legends of lithographs by Honoré Daumier came from his pen. Editor-in-chief of Charivari from 1848 he later became its editor until his death. He had the merit of discovering and promoting young talents from the new generation such as Henri Rochefort who without him would have remained a simple employee of the administration. He also wrote the text for several books illustrated by Grandville and Cham.<br /> <br /> Victor Champs 1844-1912 was one of the most prolific and renowned bookbinders of the late nineteenth century. "His bindings for bibliophiles are sought after by collectors for the good performance of their body of work and the finish of the work. Together with Carayon they were the bookbinders who in relatively simple works summed up the highest degree of perfection of execution." Fléty p.41.<br /> <br /> Provenance: Bibliothèque Antoine Vautier. One of the great French bibliophiles whose superb collection "Catalogue de Vente aux Encheres" was sold in Paris at Hotel Drouot on April 21st 1971 and on May 11th 1977.<br /> <br /> Hatin 521.
