Book
Les Images D'Épinal
-
A lovely copy of this limited edition / first edition. This is the deluxe edition of the review of the Épinal images. Limited to only 300 copies, this is #171. The original cloth covered stiff card boards are in very good condition. There is a little darkening to the boards, but little other marking. Blue cloth spine, with no titles. A touch of edgewear only. The cloth ties are lacking. Internally, the contents are loose in sheets. In excellent condition, with factional marking only. This scarce edition included 207 engravings within the text (149 of which are printed in colour). There are also 44 full page plates outside the text. Printed on high quality Arches paper, these include 29 double sheets and three quadruple sheets. Most of the plates were printed from the original wood blocks, but a few were re-engraved by the Établissement Les Arts Graphiques Modernes in Nancy. The hand colouring for the plates was done by A. Collovald of Nancy. Our copy is complete, which is most unusual, and includes the Napoleon plate - which is often missing from available copies. 180 pages. 34cm x 26cm. Also included is an attractive loose advertisement for a collection of Napoléonic imagery, which was in preparation. This is printed in a lovely coloured foil. Very rare and comprehensive study on the Epinal print production which is hardly ever on the market. The 1920 edition is most often found, but this 1912 edition was printed in 300 numbered copies only. Epinal prints prints on popular subjects were rendered in bright sharp colours, and sold in France in the 19th Century. They owe their name to the fact that the first publisher of such images - Jean-Charles Pellerin - having been born in Epinal, named the printing house he founded in 1796, Imagerie d'Epinal. Rene Perrout (1868-1920), was a Lorraine writer and passionate about folk art. .
