Arland, Marcel [Marc Chagall]. Maternité. Paris Au Sans Pareil 1926, 1926.

Price: US$2630.49 + shipping

Description: 95[5]pp. Octavo. Bound in the original wrappers with a stiff blue wrap around jacket with dark blue lettering on the front and spine. One of 60 limited copies printed on Vergé de Hollande-- numbered 56 to 115-- with an extra suite of the 5 etchings by Marc Chagall in the latter portion of the book; this copy is #110. Deckling to all text block edges. Illustrated with five full page etchings by Chagall throughout the text with duplicate copies of the plates bound at the end; all the etchings have the original tissue guards. The blue jacket has faded quite a bit and is more of a buff colour and has some water stains on the back panel and to the spine in spots. Some transfer from the inner folds of the jacket is apparent on the ffep, although it is quite faint. Internally clean and an attractive copy overall. Limited to a printing of 960 copies in total, with 60 of those on Vergé de Hollande, of which this copy is one. In 1923 Marc Chagall moved to Paris and received several commissions for visual narratives, including this story by Marcel Arland. The text is comprised of a short story told in reverse, beginning with the death of a young girl's illegitimate baby and ending with the first night she and her lover spend together. The girl is vilified by her neighbors and Chagall's first image shows her being taken away by the police as a crowd yells and shames her. Another plate shows the girl giving birth alone in her backyard among the chickens and empty crates. Due to the popularity of Chagall's prints, many copies of this book were split apart and the etchings were sold individually. This is a complete and clean copy.
