305 x 241 mm. (12 x 9 1/2"). 2 p.l., 145, [3] pp. ESPECIALLY ATTRACTIVE RICH GREEN MOROCCO BY ROOT & SON (signed on rear turn-in), covers framed in gilt with triple rules, the inner rule entwined at corners with ivy leaf terminations, raised bands, spine gilt in compartments formed by double rule and featuring ivy leaf cornerpieces around an inner central panel, wide ruled turn-ins with foliate cornerpieces, marbled endpapers, top edge gilt, other edges rough trimmed. Original wrappers preserved. Decorative initials and title page, decorative borders throughout, and 27 COLOR PLATES BY DULAC (each laid down within a decorative frame, and with a captioned tissue guard). Printed in pale orange and black throughout. Front pastedown with bookplate of Joseph H. Haines. Hughey 35h. â Upper corners slightly bumped, verso of free endpapers a little discolored (from glue?), otherwise A VERY FINE COPY. This is an attractively bound collection of tales from the "1,001 Nights," including the famous "Sinbad," charmingly illustrated by Dulac in the styles of Persian miniatures and Japanese prints. This edition contains four more plates than the English printing of the same work in 1914, and the text frames and other decorative elements are also unique to this French translation. Between 1907, when his "Arabian Nights" appeared, and 1920, Dulac's works found an appreciative audience. His illustrations have a sophisticated and exotic tone with rich color, reminiscent of the paintings of Gustav Klimt. The London bindery of William Root & Son consistently turned out excellent work, both on fine bindings as here and on trade bindings of multi-volume sets. This copy's prior owner, Joseph Howell Haines, was an avid book collector and friend of Philadelphia publisher George Lippincott. First Edition in French. No. 520 of 1,500 copies.

First Edition
First Dulac trade edition, first impression. There was also a deluxe edition of 500 signed copies bound in vellum. Hughey notes that "the Sindbad pictures. stand almost as a hallmark of one very persistent technique among his ever-evolving styles". "The exotic stories he illustrated struck a new chord in Dulac. They allowed him to enlarge his skill at caricature, and at the same time to sharpen his miniaturist's technique and to develop his lyrical sense of tone and composition. The sources he turned to were Japanese prints, which he had studied in his youth, with their flat colour and asymmetry, and the high detail and colour of Indian and Persian miniatures" (ODNB). Hughey 35a. Times Literary Supplement, 10 December 1914. Quarto. Original pictorial tan cloth, spine and front cover lettered in gilt with elaborate blue and gilt design, floral patterned brown endpapers. Colour frontispiece and 22 coloured plates mounted on paper with decorative border, with captioned tissue guards, all by Dulac. Spine a little toned, extremities a little rubbed, small stain to edge of front cover, occasional browning; a very good copy.

First Edition. 145 pp., [2 Table des Contes & Table des Illustrations], 27 colour plates illustrated by Edmond Dulac, original blue wrappers fitted in ornate blue folder and a matching slip case, title printed on spine label, each page decorated with ornamental frame, Limited and numbered edition to 1500 copies of which this copy is Number 1215, copy clean & in very good condition, no date, [ca. 1919]. Edmund Dulac (1882-1953) was a French British naturalised magazine illustrator, book illustrator and stamp designer. Born in Toulouse he studied law, but later turned to the study of art at the École des Beaux-Arts. He moved to London early in the 20th century and in 1905 received his first commission to illustrate the novels of the Brontë Sisters. During World War I, Dulac produced relief books and when after the war the deluxe children's book market shrank he turned to magazine illustrations among other ventures. He designed banknotes during World War II and postage stamps, most notably those that heralded the beginning of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. He then became a regular contributor to The Pall Mall Magazine, and joined the London Sketch Club, which introduced him to the foremost book and magazine illustrators of the day. Through these he began an association with the Leicester Galleries and Hodder & Stoughton; the gallery commissioned illustrations from Dulac which they sold in an annual exhibition, while publishing rights to the paintings were taken up by Hodder & Stoughton for reproduction in illustrated gift books, publishing one book a year. Some of the books produced under this arrangement by Dulac include Stories from The Arabian Nights (1907) with 50 colour images; an edition of William Shakespeare's The Tempest (1908) with 40 colour illustrations; The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (1909) with 20 colour images; The Sleeping Beauty and Other Fairy Tales (1910); Stories from Hans Christian Andersen (1911); The Bells and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe (1912) with 28 colour images and many monotone illustrations; and Princess Badoura (1913). #33088.

Weight: 2 lbs. 1 oz. Edmund Dulac (1882 - 1953) was a French British-naturalised Golden Age children's book illustrator (usually working in watercolors), magazine illustrator, and stamp designer. After relocating to London, J. M. Dent commissioned him in 1905 to illustrate novels of the Brontë Sisters. Hodder & Stoughton then commissioned him to produce one magnificently illustrated gift book each year. Books he thus illustrated include Stories from The Arabian Nights (1907); William Shakespeare's, The Tempest (1908); The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (1909); The Sleeping Beauty and Other Fairy Tales (1910); Stories from Hans Christian Andersen (1911); The Bells and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe (1912). In 1914, he illustrated for H&S, Sindbad the sailor & other stories from the Arabian nights. Dulac illustrated the amazing adventures of Sindbad and his sevenamazing voyages. This German trade edition is a post-war translation of that work which reproduces Dulac's superb Orientalist original H&S illustrations. In addition to such masterpieces, Dulac is also often especially recognized for Edmund Dulac's Fairy Book [1916] and his other fairytale illustrations. Ann Hughey, 350. This book is a flowering of Dulac's preoccupation with Oriental and especially Persian miniatures. In the case of the island=whale plate, one wonders if Japanese woodcuts also influenced the wide-ranging artist? Condition: VERY SCARCE EDITION.
