Éloa, or The Sister of the Mysterious Angels. Paris, Le livre contemporain, 1917. Quarto, full-leaf format, cream cover with title in blue lettering, in a blue marbled slipcase with title in gold lettering, with interior flaps. A beautiful edition illustrated with 26 woodcuts by Maurice Denis, including 18 color compositions and 8 vignettes in blue, engraved by Jacques, Camille, and Georges Beltrand. Printed in a run of 126 copies for the Société du Livre contemporain. The interior of the slipcase is stitched. Stitching marks inside in places. ARTIST’S PROOF. One of Maurice Denis’s finest works, in which his mystical world merges here with Vigny’s poem: Éloa, an angel born of a tear from Christ, attempts to save the fallen angel and is lost along with him. The compositions, printed in color by the Beltrand brothers, bear witness to the close collaboration between Maurice Denis and Jacques Beltrand in the 1910s. Provenance: Maurice Denis Collection Private collection
