MASSON, André (1896-1987) et Robert DESNOS (1900-1945). Mines de rien. Paris : Louis Broder, 1957.Édition originale, illustrée de 4 aquatintes originales de Masson. Mines de rien est le sixième ouvrage de la série « Miroir du poète ». Masson emploie ici une technique qu’il avait développée lors de son séjour aux États-Unis, à savoir faire usage d’un fond noir pour donner aux touches de couleurs un aspect presque phosphorescent. Si l’achevé d’imprimer est daté de novembre 1957, il est probable que le tirage ait en réalité été achevé deux ans plus tard. Saphire-Cramer, Masson, n°42.In-16 carré (165 x 135 mm), en feuilles. Tirage limité à 130 exemplaires sur vélin de Rives, celui-ci un des 115, n°102, signé par l'artiste à la justification. 4 aquatintes originales d’André Masson. Sous deux couvertures rempliées, la première de papier Japon avec titre imprimé en rouge, et la seconde en papier Montval, chemise de l’éditeur recouverte de papier vergé gris comportant sur le dos le titre en rouge, et étui de l’éditeur recouvert de papier vergé noir.First edition, with the 4 original aquatints by Masson.
