PICARD (Edmond) - REDON (Odilon). Le Juré. Monodrama in five acts. Bruxelles: des presses de Mme Ve Monnom, 1887. - In-4, 283 x 225: frontispiece, (4 ff.), XLVII, 133 pp., (4 ff.), 2 portraits, 6 plates. White overlaid parchment, boards decorated with a double frame of 3 gilt fillets, gilt iron with symbols of justice at corners, gilt plate in center, smooth spine decorated, untrimmed (Claessens). Mellerio 75-81. Rare and highly sought-after first edition, printed in an edition of only 100 copies on special vat Hollande Van Gelder paper. The work opens with two introductory texts printed in black, namely a Lettre sur le Monodrame - in which the author defines Monodrama as a play intended to be read aloud to an audience - and a study entitled Le Fantastique réel. The Monodrama, first read by the author at the Brussels Young Bar Association conference on November 10, 1888, is printed in bistre and gothic type. This edition is sought-after because of its illustrations, made especially for the work, including 7 original lithographic interpretations by Odilon REDON (1840-1916). In addition, there is a self-portrait of the artist, reproduced using the Evely process, and a portrait of the author writing at his desk, reproduced in heliogravure after a composition by Théo Van Rysselberghe. Each plate is printed on japon and includes a captioned serpente. Copy numbered 38, specially printed for Eugène Robert. Preserved in its publisher's binding signed by Claessens. Soiling to binding, 7.5-centimeter split at first board hinge. Ink stains in the margins of pages 58-59. Non-missing tears to some serpents. Transfer of the plates despite the serpents. Provenance: Eugène Robert.
