183346404463Paris, Le Magasin Pittoresque, 1833-1882 ; 50 volumes in-4, demi-basane brune, dos lisses ornés, titre et année en lettre dor. au dos, filets dorés, tranches jaspées. (Reliures de l’époque). RARISSIME COLLECTION COMPLÈTE DE LA PREMIÈRE SÉRIE EN RELIURES UNIFORMES. Edouard Charton (Sens 1807 - Versailles 1890) a commencé sa carrière de publiciste dans les revues saint-simoniennes Le Globe et Le Journal de la doctrine de Saint-Simon. Il rompt avec les Saint-Simoniens en 1831 et fonde Le Magasin Pittoresque en 1833 avec l’imprimeur saint-simonien Lachevardière sur le modèle du Penny magazine anglais. D’abord hebdomadaire, la revue devient mensuelle en 1850 puis bi-mensuelle. Le premier numéro annonce le projet : “Le Magasin pittoresque, revue illustrée bon marché, a pour ambition d’intéresser et d’instruire, tout en les distrayant, ceux qui n’ont ni les moyens financiers ni les loisirs de le faire”. Les articles sont confiés aux plus grands spécialistes, chaque livraison aborde les différents domaines du savoir : Beaux-Arts, sciences et techniques, géographie, archéologie, etc. Charton assumait seul le contenu de la revue, corrigeant chaque article avant publication. Dans cette première série aucun article n’est signé mais les collaborateurs sont connus : Darondeau, Reynaud, Souvestre, Carnot, Cazeaux, Charton, Fortoul, Aicard, V. de Joncières, Pauline Roland, R. Töpffer, Transon, Alby, Urbain, Alexandre de Saint-Chéron, Morville ou encore George Sand, Camille Flammarion ou Eugène Delacroix. Le succès de cette revue fut considérable dès les premiers numéros et suscita de nombreuses vocations, ainsi l’égyptologue François Joseph Chabas (1817-1882), un négociant en vins à Châlons-sur-Saône qui découvre l’égyptologie en 1852 dans le Pittoresque, grâce aux articles de Nestor Lhôte. Sand, Balzac ou encore Zola revendiquent cette revue didactique comme source importante de leur œuvre.Mais c’est en tant que revue illustrée que Le Magasin Pittoresque demeure inégalée, Charton considérait qu’une illustration abondante et de qualité était essentielle à son projet d’éducation populaire. Pour donner une si nombreuse illustration en maintenant un prix modique, Charton fit appel à la gravure sur bois qui avait presque disparu en France à cette époque. Les graveurs français ne pouvant fournir tant de planches à une revue hebdomadaire, il fit appel pour les premiers numéros à des graveurs anglais. Par la suite, grâce au succès de la revue, les ateliers parisiens revinrent à ce genre délaissé. Parmi les illustrateurs Grandville a donné de nombreux dessins (voir à ce sujet Renonciat Grandville p. 295) ou encore G. Doré (v. H. Leblanc Catal. de l'Oeuvre de G. Doré. p. 227)Le Magasin Pittoresque a occupé l’essentiel de la vie d’Edouard Charton. Bien que sa revue n’ait jamais abordé les questions politiques il était un Républicain fervent et fut élu dans l’Yonne à deux reprises en 1848 et 1871. Il fut aussi l’un des fondateurs de la revue d’actualité l’Illustration en 1842.Rare collection complète de cette première série en reliure uniforme de l’époque. Bel exemplaire frais, les reliures sont en bon état.

188096441Lock and Whitfield circa 1880. 1880. Fine. - A richly hued 4-3/4 inch high by 3-1/2 inch wide woodburytype portrait of the then Crown Prince Frederick III mounted onto 11-1/4 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide stiff cream stock. An eagle & crown device above a light gray printed decorative frame highlights the image. The subject is identified in the same light gray centered within the lower half of the sheet. "Specially taken for this work by Lock and Whitfield" is centered below the title. Near fine. <p>Friedrich Wilhelm Nikolaus Karl 1831-1888 was German Emperor and King of Prussia for a period of 99 days in 1888 the year in which he passed away. The period came to be known as the Year of the Three Emperors as his father Wilhelm I passed away in March of that year and Frederick Wilhelm's only son afflicted with cancer of the larynx died in October. Though he professed a hatred of war Crown Prince Frederick had distinguished himself in the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars. He was admired by both friends and enemies for his humane conduct.<p>Both a printing process and the print which it produces Woodburytype was invented and patented by Walter B. Woodbury in 1864. A photomechanical process Woodbury type prints are made from exposing a dichromate-sensitized sheet of gelatin to UV light shining through a photographic negative. Each area of the gelatin hardens to a depth in proportion to the amount of exposure to the light before it is then soaked in warm water. The relief image is then pressed onto a sheet of lead to create an intaglio metal printing plate. Lock and Whitfield, circa [1880]. unknown

187596430Lock and Whitfield circa 1875. 1875. Very good. - A richly hued 4-1/2 inch high oval woodburytype portrait of Leon Gambetta mounted onto 11-1/4 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide stiff cream stock. A light gray printed decorative frame highlights the image. The subject's name is printed in the same light gray centered within the lower half of the sheet. "Lock and Whitfield" and "Woodbury Process" are printed at left and right along the lower edge. There is a light vertical crease in the mat and a tiny stain to it's right edge. Very good. <p>The French statesman Leon Gambetta 1838-1882 was admitted to the bar in 1859 and the Conference Mole in 1861. In 1868 Gambetta was selected to defend the journalist Delescluze who was being prosecuted for promoting the erection of a monument to Baudin who'd been killed resisting the 1851 coup d'etat. Gambetta used the occasion to both attack the coup d'etat and the government. He was elected to the assembly by both a district in Paris and one in Marseille. Initially opposing the war with Prussia he gradually came to accept the patriotic line and called for strong measures following the disaster at Sedan. It was he who proclaimed the deposition of the emperor at the corps legislatif and the establishment of a republic at the Hotel de Ville. As one of the first members of the new Government of National defense he became Minister of the Interior. When the delegation to organize resistance in the provinces failed Gambetta set off in the "Armand-Barbes" a coal gas-filled balloon to take control as minister of the interior and of war in Tours. With his assistant secretary of war and the young officer of engineers Freycinet Gambetta organized an army which might have successfully relieved Paris if Metz had not fallen. He later faded from politics after his republican party was defeated by the conservatives and monarchists.<p>Both a printing process and the print which it produces Woodburytype was invented and patented by Walter B.
