My Daughter Bernadette. Illustrations by Maurice DENIS. Woodcuts by Jacques BELTRAND. Lyon, Cercle Lyonnais du livre, 1931. Quarto in folio, pink cover with title in gold lettering, pink slipcase in gray half-cloth with flaps, title in gold lettering. Tears on one flap. A beautiful illustrated edition featuring 28 color compositions by Maurice Denis, woodcuts by Jacques [and Georges] Beltrand. A limited edition of 175 numbered copies on BFK vellum from Rives; No. 69 printed for Maurice Lassaigne. The text, dedicated by Jammes to his eldest daughter Bernadette, struck a deeply personal chord with Maurice Denis himself, who was also the father of a daughter named Bernadette, born in 1899 and frequently depicted in his work. Fatherhood, childhood, and family life also occupy a central place in his work. His touching and delicate compositions thus aptly accompany this paternal tribute, imbued with tenderness and spirituality. One of the most intimate books from the artist’s later period.
