Madeleine. Monologue et 9 dessins

Beschreibung

Adolphe-Leon Willette (1857-1926) was a French painter, lithographer and illustrator; also he was known as an apprentice of Cabanel. Madeleine was made as a manuscript in 1911, and printed 10 years later as a limited facsimile edition on Arches paper. Social satire, telling the story of a contemporary prostitute girl, rearranges the evangelical legend of Saint Madeleine. The story accompanied by the erotical lithographs in colours.

Comes with the slipcase, in porphyry marble paper with glimpses of golden sparkles. The slip case chipped on the corners. Overall near fine to fine condition. Text in French.
