Attribué à Achille DEVERIA

[Erotica] Musée des familles

S.n. [Deshayes], Bruxelles s.d. (circa 1840), 26,9x17,7cm, en feuilles sous couverture.

s. n. [Deshayes] | Bruxelles n.?d. [circa 1840] | 26.9 x 17.7 cm | 12 lithographs under original wrappers
 
Extremely rare erotic set, anonymous but attributed to Achille Devéria, comprising an illustrated cover depicting a teacher showing 3 children drawings on a board of female and male genitals, and 12 black lithographs, numbered and entitled respectively: Childhood. - Pucelage. - The Bride. - A good position. - All places are good. - My Husband is sleeping. - The Bidet. - Pastimes - The Boudoir. - The Discovery. - The Official Report. - The Cantinière (Historical 1830). This copy also includes 2 further lithographs, un-numbered, one entitled "Rien sans lui" "Nothing without him" and the other with the caption "36 degrés au-dessus de Glace" "36 degrees above ice."
Plate number 8 undoubtedly comes from another set, comprising numbering and a caption in a different typography from the other lithographs. Cover skillfully repaired.
This set of licentious images was, for obvious reasons, published anonymously and without the name of the publisher. The rectangular scenes in frames, showing a detailed decorative background in this collection, allows us, however, to attribute them to Achille Devéria.
Two of the plates in our copy can be found in the Galitzin catalogue (n°130 in the iconographic supplement), in a
collection also bearing the title "Musée des familles".
One copy was up for sale at Christie's Nordmann sale in 2006, its cover was missing and it included 14 plates, 3 of which were duplicates. We have not been able to find any copies of this collection in any libraries world-wide.
