Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard GRANDVILLE Les Etoiles Dernière féerie [avec] Astronomie des dames par le Comte Foelix

Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard GRANDVILLE

Joseph MERY

Les Etoiles Dernière féerie [avec] Astronomie des dames par le Comte Foelix

G. de Gonet, Paris s.d. [1849], 18x27cm, relié.


Les Etoiles Dernière féerie [with] Astronomie des dames par le Comte Foelix
G. de Gonet, Paris n.d. [1849], 18x27cm, bound.
First edition of this posthumously published work illustrated with 15 full-page steel-engraved hand colored plates by Charles Geoffroy, including two engraved titles and a portrait of Grandville.
Bound in the original publisher's gilt blue cloth signed Haaraus, lightly faded spine, a little soiled to the margins, small restoration to the upper part of the first joint.
Some foxing to the title page, the first endpaper and some leaves, to the protective tissue and slightly to the engravings.
An outstanding publication, undoubtedly one of Grandville's most poetic. Celestial bodies are depicted as young women, similar to Les Fleurs animées.
