Description

CHARIVARI (Le). Important head of collection from no. 1 (December 1, 1832) to no. 181 eighth year (June 30, 1839). 18 small folio volumes, half red morocco, richly decorated smooth spines, gilded title, tomaison and dates (mid-19th c. bindings). The binding differs in format and ornamentation from the 13th volume onwards, while remaining generally homogeneous. Covers and corners worn and rubbed. Upper head of 17th volume damaged. Variable interior defects in the first 12 volumes: numerous freckles, soiling in places, several browned issues, a few tears or cuts, large brown spots in places. The last 6 volumes (containing the bulk of Daumier's engravings, among others) are much better preserved overall (apart from a few very acceptable small spots of foxing). Up to issue no. 313 of Nov. 9, 1835, each issue consists of 2 printed pages and a lithographed plate by Daumier, Benard, Gavarni, etc. Between November 9, 1835 and February 17, 1837, illustrations were no longer systematic, but more disparate, every 2 or 3 issues (rarely more). (For this period, there were around 170 lithographs engraved outside the text. From February 1837, the presentation reverted to a 4-page issue with 1 systematic full-page illustration. The total number of full-page lithographs is around 2090. The following 26 issues are missing from this copy: n°91 (1/4/1834), n°92 (2/4/1834), n°248 (7/9/1834), n°248 (8/9/1834), n°342 (11/12/1834), n°42 (11/2/1835), n°80 (31/3/1835), n°81 (1/4/1835), n°171 (30/6/1835), n°179 (8/7/1835), n°198 (27/7/1835), n°206 (3/8/1835), n°228 (16/8/1835), n°274 (1/10/1835), n°280 (7/10/1835), n°320 (17/11/1835), n°362 (28/12/1835), n°52 (21/2/1835), n°70 (10/3/1835), n°76 (16/3/1835), n°95 (15/4/1836), n°322 (17/11/1836), n°100? (10/4/1837), n°138 (19/5/1837), n°122 (4/5/1838). n°48 (18/2/1837). The world's first illustrated satirical daily, Le Charivari appeared from 1832 to 1937. Founded on December 1, 1832 by Charles Philipon as a newspaper of republican opposition to the July monarchy, the satirical entertainment paper asserted its radical, conservative, republican and anti-clerical credentials over the course of its history. Its most notable authors included Taxile Delord and Agénor Altaroche, while its most prominent cartoonists included Philipon, Nadar, Gustave Doré, Honoré Daumier, Cham, Gavarni, Pigal and Traviès. RARE ET EXCEPTIONNEL ENSEMBLE de près de 2350 numéros du Charivari, chacun complet de son illustration quand il y a lieu d'être (detailed list available on request).
