About This Item
Nine small etchings printed on a sheet of China paper. Sheet size: 275 x 240mm. (Smallest etching: 20 x 54mm; the largest: 69 x 94mm). - These etchings were destined to be published in the rare (short-lived), weekly journal Paris à l'eau-forte (1873-76),directed and edited by Richard Lesclide, at that time secretary of Victor Hugo. The concept of the little magazine was innovative enough; a variety of literary texts were intercalated with small original etchings, in the technique known as chine collé or appliqué. - Among the artists that contributed etchings to the magazine were Frédéric and Félix Regamey, Henri Guérard, Félix Buhot, Armand Guillaumin, Van Ryssel (Dr. Paul Gachet), Henry Somm, Norbert Goeneutte, and also the versatile, talented Jules Adeline, an art historian, draughtsman, etcher, Illustrator, architect, and author of about 9000 drawings, etchings and watercolours, principally on the old town of Rouen. He authored several books on decorative arts, and one of his interests, which he shared with his friends Siegfried Bing and Champfleury, was japanese art. In 1893 he published Le Chat d'après les Japonais, a true gem for bibliophiles. - Condition: some creasing at the edges of the sheet (see photos), a few mild tiny foxing spots at edges of the sheet, but in fact very good condition, and most uncommon in this uncut state, not inserted in issues of the magazine.
