1869168897Paris: Garnier Frères 1869. Second edition of Grandville's masterpiece of satirical illustration featuring his famous engravings of beast-headed people. It was improved from the first of 1854 by printing the plates on heavier paper and revising or augmenting the captions; the artist's signature was also added to many of them. The work originally appeared as a portfolio of hand-coloured lithographs printed by Langlumé in 1829; the book form edition in 1854 was the first to include an accompanying text and reproduce the illustrations as wood-engravings. The task of re-engraving the images on wood was entrusted to Auguste Desperet 1804-1865 a skilled artist "whose talent was highly regarded by Grandville himself who considered him to be his collaborator" tr. from Brivois. Grandville the pseudonym of Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard 1803-1847 was the most famous and talented French caricaturist of the period. Les métamorphoses du jour was his first major success and the work which established his reputation. The illustrations inaugurated his characteristic "bitter burlesque" style which exposes human vices and behaviours by giving men and women the heads of animals. The work was intended as a satirical commentary on the Parisian burgeois society of the 1820s. "Lust gluttony anger and the other deadly sins are stigmatized now with the blow of a hammer now with the thrust of a stiletto; while the foibles and humors of mankind also receive due attention. Throughout the series Grandville's choice of beast-heads is inspired; and the force of his conceptions and the wit of his captions rarely falter" Ray p. 198. Quarto. Wood-engraved frontispiece and 70 similar plates all hand-coloured and with tissue guards numerous wood-engraved vignettes in text. Original red quarter roan red pebble-grain cloth sides blocked in blind spine with raised bands compartments lettered and decorated in gilt cream textured endpapers edges gilt. Wear to extremities short cracks at joints ends but firm spine skilfully retouched with colour small repair at tail peripheral fading and couple small of damp-stains to cloth intermittent and mainly marginal foxing to contents otherwise generally clean the plates vibrant.
