Lot 55 | RENOIR, Pierre-Auguste (1841-1919) et Stéphane MALLARMÉ (1842-1898)
RENOIR, Pierre-Auguste (1841-1919) et Stéphane MALLARMÉ (1842-1898). Pages. Bruxelles : Edmond Deman, 1891.

Édition originale de ce recueil de Mallarmé, avec le célèbre nu gravépar Renoir, l'une des premières eaux-fortes réalisées par l'artiste, sa seule oeuvre originale réalisée pour un livre et publiée. The Artist and the Book, n°259 : "Renoir's only published original book illustration. In the late 1880s, Mallarmé planned a volume of essays on literature and the theatre [to be illustrated by Degas, Renoir, Berthe Morisot and John Lewis Brown]. The plan was not realized and only Renoir's plate was finally completed and published, four years later in Pages. This is one of his early ethings -a medium which he used for the first time about 1890- and illustrates 'Le phénomène futur', Mallarmé's dream of an idealized female form".

In-4 (273 x 194 mm). Un des 275 exemplaires sur papier de Hollande Van Gelder, celui-ci le n°189. En frontispice, une eau-forte originale de Renoir (habituels reports de la gravure et du titre, les deux premiers feuillets sont montés sur onglets). Demi-chagrin ivoire, dos à nerfs, lettre dorée, tête dorée (reliure frottée et décolorée).

First edition, with the famous nude etched by Renoir, his only published original book illustration.
