Louis REYBAUD

Jérome Paturot à la recherche d'une position sociale. Jérome Paturot à la recherche de la meilleure des républiques

Dubochet & Michel Lévy, Paris 1846, 2 volumes Grd. in 8 Format Jésus (18x27cm), relié.

First edition of these two works published in 1846 and 1849 respectively, the first is illustrated by Grandville 32 off-texts and numerous vignettes in-text, and the second by Tony Johannot 30 off-texts and 200 vignettes information text. For illustrators, this is one of their best productions, the two novels that inspired the imagination of two designers, whose unbridled imagination and be easy to compare.
Rare meeting in contemporary uniforms binding of these two works. Demi shagreen decorated with romantic iron and fat nets. beautiful blue marbled papers on the boards. Corrugated paper and glossy guard white flowers. Small caps rubs head and along the jaw. Very fresh and white copies with very few tiny scattered spots and pale. The serpentes were removed, thus preserving the normal paper foxing here. Beautiful conditions.
Jerome Paturot looking for a social position was a great success and its sequel also crisp Parisian society and politics after the Revolution of 1848 Both novels stigmatize the bourgeois society of the time in a very Balzac's vision of social success and make an unprecedented testimony of the time. It will recognize all the political and artistic society portrayed literally and figuratively (Dumas, Balzac, Hugo). --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
