Renée VIVIEN La Vénus des aveugles

Renée VIVIEN

La Vénus des aveugles

Lemerre, Paris 1904, 13x19cm, relié.


La Vénus des aveugles [The Venus of the Blind]
 
Lemerre | Paris 1904 | 13 x 19 cm | in original wrappers
 

First edition for which no grand papier (deluxe) copy were printed.
Cover illustrated by Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer. Spine discreetly restored.
 
Rare inscription from the author to Jeanne de Bellune “à mon amour de petit Jeannot” ("To my love, little Jeannot").
 
End-of-century cocotte, the Viscountess of Juromenha was the lover of several intellectual female figures in the early 20th century, such as Renée Vivien and Liane de Pougy, who described her as “little gnome”. There remains no image of this “most comical lesbian”(Jacques Ars) in public collections and the only portrait we know of her is a description penned by Natalie Clifford Barney, who called her a “drunkard with a red face and no beauty”.
 
Precious copy with a sapphic inscription.
