André Masson - Arthur Rimbaud. Une saison en enfer. Eaux-fortes originales de André Masson. Pari, Les Cent-Une [1961]. Mit zehn farbigen Aquatintaradierungen, davon neun doppelblattgroß, eine wiederholt in neun verschiedenen Farben. Lose Doppelbogen in Originalumschlag, -chemise und -schuber. Ausrufzeit : ca. 15:41 (Zeitplan ohne Gewähr) Subskriptionsexemplar für Mademoiselle Élise Puiforcat, eins von 140 für die Mitglieder der Société de Femmes Bibliophiles. - Im Druckvermerk vom Künstler und den Präsidentinnen der Bibliophilenvereinigung signiert. - Sehr schönes Exemplar. - Rimbaud lag - wie auch sein Zeitgenosse Isidore Ducasse (Comte de Lautréamont)- den Surrealisten als Vorreiter ihrer Ideale sehr am Herzen, so dass zahlreiche seiner Werke illustriert wurden. - Bemerkenswert ist die Drucktechnik, bei der jede Aquatinta-Platte größer als das Papierformat war, so dass nach dem Druck kein Plattenrand sichtbar ist. Die breiten weißen Ränder verhinderten unvorhergesehene Bildverluste. (siehe Saphire/Cramer, S. 130). Saphire/Cramer 50. - Monod 9764. - ABF, p. 338 39,5 : 29,0 cm. 140, [14] Seiten. english description: Includes ten color aquatint etchings, nine double-sheet in size, one repeated in nine different colors. Loose double sheets in their original wrapper. Together in a chemise and slipcase. Subscription copy for Mademoiselle Élise Puiforcat, one of 140 issued to members of the Société de Femmes Bibliophiles. - Signed in the colophon by the artist and the presidents of the bibliophiles’ association. - A very fine copy. »Rimbaud, like his contemporary Isidore Ducasse (Comte de Lautréamont), was dear to the surrealists' hearts as a precursor of their ideals. ... Each aquatint plate exceeded the double-page format, so no plate mark shows. The border around each illustration insured that no unforseen problems arose with loss of image, a method also used for Les Hain-Teny (No. 36), although less obviously. ...The suite of chapter introductions, was pulled without typography.« (Saphire/Cramer, p. 130).
