Description:
London, 1924. . First edition, limited edition of 500 copies, this copy hors serie; 4to, illustrated with 30 plates by Grigoriev with tissue guards; publisher's special binding for the owner of half vellum over boards, title gilt stamped to upper cover as well as 'The Moscow Art Theatre...Special Edition by Order of Morris Gest'. Grigoriev's wonderful work here printed specially for one of Broadway's most successful producers of the 1910s and 1920s. Numerous illustrations and tipped in reproductions of the artist's work are accompanied with essays by Louis Reau, Clare Sheridan, André Levinson, Claude Farrere and André Antoine.Although Grigoriev left Russia in 1918, the faces of Russian peasants continued to haunt him, and he worked tirelessly on this theme while living in France in the early 1920s. The result is an intense study of the faces of the Russian people; each portrait depicts the peasant in a uniquely harsh light, exposing the hardships of their lives through their rugged faces and…

Description:
Paris: Chez l'Auteur, 1788. . Quarto, engraved title, engraved dedication, 24 engraved plates accompanied by engraved text, contemporary mottled calf gilt, neat repairs to joints. Lovely example of this celebrated work, bound in full contemporary calf.The plates are reductions of large plates engraved from drawings by Jesuit Attiret, on orders of the Emperor of China and the intervention of the East India Company. Cochin the French engraver was charged by M. de Marigny to oversea the work, and the plates were actually done by Aliamet, Choffard, Le Bas, Nee, Prevost and Saint-Aubin. Distribution was very strictly limited to China, and only one or two rare copies were found in Europe. It was after these sets that Helman made his fine engravings.
