Croquis d'Apres A. Grévin par F. Cosnefroy

Croquis d'Apres A. Grévin par F. Cosnefroy

Quarter Morocco. Marbled boards. . Very Good. Brilliant imitation of the style of the great French caricaturist Alfred Grévin.

Album of a Dozen Chinese Watercolors of Colorful Birds on Pith Paper, 19th Century

Album of a Dozen Chinese Watercolors of Colorful Birds on Pith Paper, 19th Century

Silk covered boards. Good. N.d., circa 1850. 12mo, 16 by 12 cm. Each painting mounted on thin paper and framed with blue strips, as typical of such albums made presumably for the tourist and expatriate market. The paintings have a disarming naive quality. Yet in our view the paintings have more color and detail than the average such album of this size (larger format pictures tend to be more nuanced when it comes to this genre). The silk patterned cover has had its joints repaired. The usual... Read more about this item
