06466Paris: Aubert et Cie. 1839. The Fine Shades of Feeling: Gavarni and the Comedy of Modern Emotion<br /> <br /> GAVARNI Paul pseudonym of Guillaume-Sulpice Chevallier. Nuances du Sentiment. Paris: Aubert et Cie. 1839-1840.<br /> <br /> First edition. Folio 13 1/4 x 10 inches; 336 x 254 mm. Twenty-five lithograph plates. Plate no. 20 with contemporary hand-coloring heightened with gum arabic. Plate no. 10 misnumbered "9" as noted by Armelhault. Plate no. 15 slightly shorter 3/8 inch at lower margin. Some occasional light marginal foxing - most noticeable on plate 1.<br /> <br /> Early twentieth-century blue cloth covers decoratively bordered in blind front cover lettered in gilt expertly rebacked spine lettered in gilt. Aside from the occasional light marginal foxing this is a near fine copy.<br /> <br /> A charming and unusually appealing complete set from one of Gavarni's most perceptive and elegant social suites Nuances du Sentiment turns its attention to the delicate gradations of emotion courtship vanity hesitation disappointment and self-dramatization that animate Parisian life. Few artists of the July Monarchy were better equipped than Gavarni to capture these fleeting psychological states. With his incomparable economy of line and his gift for registering gesture pose and expression he transforms small moments of social comedy into scenes of remarkable acuity.<br /> <br /> The title itself is characteristic: these are not grand passions but subtleties - shades of feeling observed in drawing rooms promenades and private exchanges. Gavarni was among the supreme illustrators of modern manners and in suites such as this one he stands beside Daumier as one of the great visual chroniclers of nineteenth-century French urban life. Yet where Daumier often bites Gavarni more often insinuates; his satire is lighter cooler and at times almost tender though no less exact.<br /> <br /> Particularly attractive is the contemporary hand-coloring of plate 20 heightened with gum arabic a feature that lends that sheet a more finished and decorative quality and offers an appealing reminder of the close relationship between the lithographic satire and the luxury print market of the period. The mis-numbering of plate 10 as "9" recorded by Armelhault is present as expected. <br /> <br /> A quietly sophisticated and genuinely scarce Gavarni suite - and a reminder that the most revealing chronicles of nineteenth-century Paris are often found not in its grand narratives but in its smallest gestures.<br /> <br /> Rare: We have handles over fifty different titles illustrated by Gavarni - we have never seen nor heard of this title before.<br /> <br /> Armelhault and Bocher 877-901.

1864047FR1J. Hetzel et Blanchard Aux Bureaux du Figaro Paris: 1864. 1864 pp. VIII Preface by Theophile Gautier 122 lithograph plates each containing four drawings. Foxed. Folio. Plain marbled boards binding. "Gavarni was the pseudonym of Sulpice Guillaume Chevalier. A great French caricaturist and lithographer he was first known for his amusing drawings of costumes which appeared in La Mode. Later he contributed satirical drawings to Charivari. In his early delineations of society he appeared more capricious than his great contemporary Daumier. However Gavarni's last work published mostly in L'Illustration reflects a bitter attitude. His trip to London in 1847 resulted in drawings strongly condemning working-class conditions there. Gavarni produced over 8000 drawings watercolors and lithographs." - Cambridge Encyclopedia. This collection "attests to the spontaneity and profundity of his observations. The great popular success of his caricature owed as much to the accompanying captions as to the richness of the drawing." Colta Feller Ives. PRICE JUST REDUCED! FR3 Language: eng. Hardcover.

05959Paris: Caboche Gregoire / Chez Aubert 1838-1839. Two Incredibly Scarce Gavarni Albums Bound Together<br /> A Total of Forty-Three Marvelous Hand-Colored Lithographs<br /> <br /> GAVARNI pseudonym of Guillaume Sulpice Chevallier. Paris le Matin. Paris: Chez Aubert 1838-1839. bound with La Boite aux Lettres. Paris: Caboche Gregoire / Chez Aubert 1839. <br /> <br /> First editions. Folio 13 1/8 x 9 5/8 in; 334 x 245 mm. Paris le Matin with twelve and La Boite aux Lettres with thirty-one of thirty-four hand-colored lithographed plates; a total of forty-three plates most heightened with gum arabic.<br /> <br /> Bound to contemporary French style c. 1920 in quarter black morocco over marbled boards. Smooth spine ruled in blind and lettered in gilt marbled endpapers top edge gilt others uncut. A very fine copy of two extremely scarce Gavarni albums.<br /> <br /> ABPC Index 1923-present records no copies of Paris le Matin at auction within the last eighty-eight years. Only one copy of La Boite ux Lettres has come to auction within the last thirty-six years and it contained only fourteen of the called-for thirty-four plates.<br /> <br /> Only one copy of Paris le Matin is found in institutional collections worldwide at the Getty Research Library. OCLC records only five copies of La Boite aux Lettres in libraries throughout the world.<br /> <br /> Paris le Matin Paris Morning and La Boite aux Lettres Mailbox are typical - if exceedingly scarce - examples of Gavarni turning his satiric eye on the customs and manners of the French petit bourgeoisie. Paris le Matin limns the morning activities of Parisians; La Boite aux Lettres is a charmingly amusing survey of writing sending and receiving letters in Paris of the era.<br /> <br /> La Boite aux Lettres lacks the last three plates XXXI XXXIII and XXXIV. The institutional copies appear to be incomplete as well but it seems that the copy under notice is as complete as has ever been seen within our lifetime and is likely to remain so for many years to come.<br /> <br /> Armelhault & Bocher 902-913 Paris le Matin.

Joints expertly repaired. A fine example.<br /> <br /> "In 1837 Gavarni began his connection with Le charivari which did not conclude until 1848. In all he drew 1054 lithographs for his journal.Most of these appeared in series some twenty-five of which extend to ten or more plates and were afterwards published by Aubert in albums. Perhaps the best of these collections are Fourberies de femmes en matière de sentiment Les étudiants de Paris Les débardeurs and Les lorettes; but some of the rest are of hardly inferior interest. Still further series contributed to periodicals other than Le charivari were also issued as albums. Baudelaire had this part of Gavarni's work particularly in mind when he wrote.that 'the true glory and the true mission of Gavarni and Daumier has been to complete Balzac.' Certainly the pictures of Parisian society provided by the two artists perfectly complement each other. Daumier's preoccupation was the working middle class with faces and figures heavily marked by life. Gavarni remained for the most part outside the humdrum bourgeois round. He preferred to show 'youth at the prow and pleasure at the helm.' His pretty girls and sleek young men are bent on enjoyment. They live lives of graceful dissipation" Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book p. 217.<br /> <br /> Armelhault & Bocher 902-913 & 914-933. Paris: Chez Bauger [and] Chez Aubert, 1839 unknown
