Portraits. Texte de Henri Matisse. Mit 1 Original-Lithographie von Henri Matisse, farblithographierten Umschlag nach Matisse und 93 (33 farb.) Tafeln. Kl.-Folio. Monte Carlo, André Sauret, 1954. OBroschur. in Chemise und Schuber.

Moderne Literatur und Kunst – Bolliger IV, 457. - Duthuit (Livres Illustrés), 33. - Monod 7849. - Erste Ausgabe des bedeutenden Textes. In kleinerer nummerierten Auflage erschienen. Die Auswahl der gezeichneten, gestochenen und gemalten Porträts nahm der Künstler selbst vor. Matisse reflektiert in den Texten seine künstlerische Philosophie, betont Linearität und Farbharmonie in Porträts, wie in seinen Fauves-Werken oder späteren Scherenschnitten. Die Original-Lithographie "Pompadour" (oft als Porträt einer Frau im Stil der Marquise de Pompadour interpretiert) sowie die Tafeln zeigen Porträts von Modellen wie Henriette Darricarrère oder Lydia Delektorskaya, die seine Reduktion auf Essenz demonstrieren. - Sehr gutes Exemplar.

Modern Literature and Art – With 1 original lithograph by Henri Matisse, a color lithographed cover after Matisse, and 93 plates (33 in color). First edition of this significant text, published in a smaller numbered edition. The artist himself selected the drawn, engraved, and painted portraits. Matisse reflects on his artistic philosophy in the texts, emphasizing linearity and color harmony in portraits, as seen in his Fauvist works or later paper cut-outs. The original lithograph "Pompadour" (often interpreted as a portrait of a woman in the style of the Marquise de Pompadour) and the plates feature portraits of models like Henriette Darricarrère or Lydia Delektorskaya, demonstrating his reduction to essence. - Very good copy.
