1800284241800. Engraving 5 x 4 inches. Light soiling. A few contemporary ink notations on verso. Engraved portrait of Governor Anne Joseph Hippolyte de Maurès Comte de Malartic governor of the island of Mauritius. The portrait is a line-drawing done in profile and framed in an oval. Flags flank either side of the oval frame and it is captioned beneath. There is some light wear to the tiny imprint information causing it to be slightly obscured but it is possible that the illustrator's name is "Girouai" and the engraver may be "Noiret." The engraving is a bit crude and printed on laid paper. It is likely that it was done shortly after Malartic's death in 1800. A most unusual and exotic image a tribute to the rich culture of printing that flourished on the remote island in the south Indian Ocean. unknown books

1913003195Paris 1913. Full Leather. Very Good. 17 by 13 cm. One caricature per page for a total of 366 caricatures one per day plus an introductory illustration each in color almost all accompanied by a few lines of light verse. The caricatures are of the famous of the day from all walks of life -- theater politics the military literature and graphic arts high society commerce etc. -- and a few of an earlier time Alfred de Musset Cyrano du Bergerac Jesus not all of whom were French. The non-Gallic caricatures include people such as Andrew Carnegie John Jacob Astor Rockefeller and Paderewski. A few of the drawings are of fictional characters -- debatably this might include Cyrano or Biblical characters such as Methusaleh and then some non-human characters such as Chanticler. Altogether it is a smorgasbord feast of colorful absurdist portraiture that can probably only be fully absorbed over many days. Contributors include among the artists Rip Sem Hemard Mich Poulbot etc. -- a who's who of French comic illustrators of the day in other words some of whom are themselves depicted in the illustrations -- with the verses and captions by Jean Bastia Numa Bles Dominique Bonnaud etc. Spine on top and opens verticallly or in typical calendar style with the first half of the year represented on one side of the leaves and then the book is flipped to reveal the second half on the verso of the leaves.
