First Edition
Derriey, Charles (1808-77). Specimen-album. [4, including price list], 185, [11]ff., ff. 1-185 printed on rectos only; ff. 107 and 130-134 omitted from the foliation as noted in the Table of Contents; leaf following f. 50 numbered "50-50." 37 leaves printed in color. Paris: Charles Derriey, 1862. 391 x 301 mm. Original publisher's binding of full dark blue morocco gilt elaborately decorated with type ornaments created by Derriey, inner gilt dentelles, all edges gilt; boxed. Small scuff on front cover, slight wear at hinges, front inner hinge cracking, but very good to fine. First Edition. Charles Derriey was one of France's most celebrated type founders of the nineteenth century, responsible for many developments in printing machinery. In 1862 he issued his Specimen-Album for distribution at the International Exhibition in London; deservedly famous, the book is a magnificent example of Derriey's type and ornament specimens, with numerous examples of his exceptional color work. "This is one of the most beautiful works ever issued from the French, or, indeed, any other press . . . The album was prepared for distribution at the International Exhibition of London in 1862, at which it was afterwards honoured with a prize medal" (Bigmore & Wyman, Bibliography of Printing I, p. 63). Of particular note are the color printed plates-of the 183 leaves, 37 are printed in three to eight colors and they are magnificent. "The precision of casting and fitting together of the ornaments when combined with incredible press work and register of the colors, silver and gold, is truly impressive" (J. Burke, Typographia, p. 520). The dark blue full morocco binding, decorated with type ornaments designed and created by Derriey, is one of the most remarkable bindings of the 19th century because of the exquisite subtlety of the Derriey designs stamped into the covers. The book opens with a three-page price list and table of contents, printed by Jules Claye on a single folded sheet. The remainder of the book, including all the black & white and color specimens, appears to have been printed by Paul Dupont, as "Imprimerie Paul Dupont" appears in tiny type at the foot of most of color specimens. The table of contents states the number of runs through the press required for each leaf; some of the color plates required eight runs. Maintaining the precise registration required for the superfine detail of these specimens, and the mixing all the subtle colors, would have been the greatest challenge for any printer. .

Das in der eleganten Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré ansässige Designstudio Lizzie Derriey entwarf seit seiner Gründung 1928 bis in die 1990er Jahre hinein markante Muster für Stoffe sowohl für die großen Modehäuser wie Jean Patou, Givenchy, Oscar de la Renta und Yves Saint Laurent als auch für den Interior-Bereich. "Dans le domaine de l`ameublement, part belle est faite aux créatrices: Paule Marrot, Primerose Bordier, Lizzie Derriey sont autant de personnalités et d`autres femmes vont marquer le monde de la décoration et de la création textile. (Artikel `Le Textile au Féminin`, In intima magazine, 2016). Im Rahmen einer Ausstellung von Entwürfen aus dem Atelier Derriey, die 2011 im Luxus-Kaufhaus Liberty in London stattfand, wurde eine ehemalige Mitarbeiterin des Ateliers interviewt und sie erklärte, wie die Entwürfe entstanden und wie sie verkauft wurden: "The creation of the design was all done by hand using basic materials - paper, gouache, sable brushes. Before designers began exhibiting at large design fairs like Indigo and Surtex, and the designer halls at Heimtex, most designs were sold from the showrooms of the design studios. Therefore the buyers and clients would generally visit all these studios by appointment. They would have special design buying trips planned in their schedule at various times of the year, pounding the streets of Paris, Como, etc. Studios would also send out their Sales people to also pound the streets with their weighty portfolios and sometimes hope to sell a design or collection. In the old days the studio had very strict rules regarding the exposure of designers to clients. The European studios, especially the French ones, were quite obsessed about this. If they had a good designer who`s designs were selling well, they did everything in their power to keep them under wraps." (zitiert nach: Pattern People, 3. Juni 2011). Die vorliegende Sammlung von 30 Originalentwürfen zeigt die für das Atelier typischen floralen Muster, die teils durch mutige Farbkombinationen, teils durch ins Ornamentale weisende Abstraktionen oder Zitate aus der Flower-Power-Ästhetik ganz modern und lebendig wirken. Bis auf einen Entwurf in Bleistift und zwei nur ankolorierte Blätter sind alle Entwürfe minutiös ausgearbeitet und zeugen von der beeindruckenden Professionalität und Kreativität dieses in der Öffentlichkeit kaum bekannten Studios. - Zustand: Die Muster alle tadellos erhalten, die breiten weißen Ränder vereinzelt etwas fingerfleckig, am unteren rechten Rand handschriftliche Inventarnummern.
