Stock Code 114806
Paris, Le Degré quarante et un, 1968
A wonderful example of this homage to the Parisian printer and publisher Roger Lacourière, containing original etchings by thirteen artists who collaborated with him in his Montmartre atelier. Picasso not only contributed an etching but also a poem titled Aux quatre coins de la pièce which he had engraved on a copper plate. The original plate was lost and there was only one known impression. Through great skill, Iliazd was able to the poem, in printed form, the same aesthetic as the manuscript-engraving.
First edition, one of 50 copies on Japon, from a total edition of 75, signed by Iliazd in red pencil on the colophon and by nine of the artists on the upper flyleaf; oblong 4to (23.2 x 29 cm); illustrated with 13 drypoint engravings of which three are in colour from the following artists: Beaudin, Bryen, Derain, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Ernst, Giacometti, Magnelli, Marcoussis, Masson, Miro, Pascin, Picasso and Survage; loose as issuedin the publisher's blue marbled wrappers cover with title printed in red and brown cloth chemise and slipcase with title in black to spine, chemise spine a little spotted else a fine copy.
