04851Paris: Chez Tessari et Cie. 1837. Extremely Scarce No Auction Records No Copies in Libraries Worldwide GAVARNI pseudonym of Guillaume Sulpice Chevallier. Fashionables. Paris: Chez Tessari et Cie. n.d. 1837. Large quarto 13 1/8 x 10 1/16 inches; 333 x 255 mm. Twelve hand-colored lithographed plates heightened with gum arabic depicting couples during the twelve months of the year. Plates lithographed by Lemercier. Contemporary half red morocco ruled in gilt over marbled boards by CanapÃ© et Corriez stamp-signed on front flyleaf. Smooth spine decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt top edge gilt marbled endpapers. Some light foxing a few plates slightly browned. Tiny portion of lower corner of the plate "AoÃ»t" torn away. Two bookplates and remains of a third on front pastedown. An excellent copy of this extremely scarce series of plates. Not in Colas Hiler or Lipperheide. Each plate Janvier to Decembre depicts the appropriate fashion for each month of the year. A work of incredible scarcity with no copies at auction since ABPC began indexing in 1923. No records in OCLC and KVK OCLC notes one of the lithographs Avril at Clark Art Institute. "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 matiÃ¨re de sentiment Les Ã©tudiants de Paris Les dÃ©bardeurs 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 â€˜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 â€˜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. Armelhault & Bocher 2331-2342. The Plates: 1. Janvier 2. FÃ©vrier 3. Mars 4. Avril 5. Mai 6. Juin 7.

"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 with love intrigues and balls on the one hand and pawnbrokers' shops and debtors' prisons on the other. Their motto is carpe diem and they rarely think of the day or reckoning" Ray p. 217. "After the initial success of Caricaturana Philipon proposed to Gavarni that he draw 'Mme. Robert Macaire' for Le charivari. He responded with twelve studies of female deception in which he seems to have adopted Vigny's belief that 'A woman more or less is always Delilah.' They made little impression but three years later Gavarni returned to the theme in a subtler and more amiable way with one of his most searching and amusing series. In no. 37 he offers this exchange: 'How did you know papa that I loved Mr. Leon-Because you always talked to me about Mr. Paul.' Gavarni's playful mastery of female psychology is not the only attraction of the series. If Daumier could not draw a pretty woman as is sometimes alleged Gavarni at this period could hardly draw an ugly one" Ray pp. 220-221. Armelhault & Bocher 662-702; Ray The Art of the French Illustrated Book 151. Paris: Chez Aubert gal. Véro-Dodat, 1837 unknown
