Description

BAUDELAIRE, Charles Les Fleurs du mal [...]. Seconde édition augmentée de trente-cinq poëmes nouveaux et ornée d'un portrait de l'auteur dessiné et gravé par Bracquemond. Paris Poulet-Malassis et De Broise (impr. Simon Raçon et comp.) 1861 In-12 : [6]-319 pp. (some very slight spotting). Jansenist midnight-blue Cape morocco signed Alix, gilt titled spine, wide gilt int. lace, gilt tr. on witnesses, cover boards cons. In bordered slipcase. Superb copy, very fresh inside. Partly original second edition, extensively revised and enriched with 35 new poems, the last to be published during the author's lifetime (and approved by him), and consequently much more accomplished than the 1857 original. Edition of 1500 unjustified copies, this one on wove paper, complete with the etched portrait of Baudelaire by Félix Bracquemond on chine appliqué, often missing, here in first state, before the mention "L'Artiste" above the portrait. Title printed in black and red. A first-edition copy, as evidenced e.g. by the misprints on pp. 20 (missing initial on l. 9) and 49 (idem on last l.). Ref. Carteret I:124. - Vicaire I:343. - Oberlé, Poulet-Malassis, 216.
