Fac Similes des Dessins Extraits des Livres de Croquis de Géricault et Lithographiés par Plusieurs Artistes.
Publiés par Blaisot M.d d'Estampes de S.A.R. M.gr le Duc d'Orléans / Palais Royal 1825 / Imp.e Lithog.e de P. Ducarme, Rue des Fossés Saint Germain l'auxerrois, No. 24
Ten lithographs in original wrappers, sheets each approx 365 x 270mm (14¼ x 10½"). Collector's stamp of [?]Paul and Véronique Sanchez on verso of each (probably variant of L.3289.
Ten lithographs of 20? after drawings by Théodore Géricault (1791 - 1824) and published shortly after his death. Subjects include military and oriental costume studies, fighting bulls, the philosopher Helvetius presenting his son to Voltaire, and a fragment of Michelangelo's 'Last Judgment'. After Géricault's death at the age of 32, his works were auctioned in a sale which contained around 220 paintings and an estimated 1600-1800 drawings and watercolours. Géricault sold very little in his lifetime, and so he owned most of his work at the time of his death. The drawings reproduced here were probably purchased at the auction by Blaisot. While he had little financial success in his lifetime, Géricault's postuhumous influence was on the likes of Delacroix and Courbet was great.

The English Farrier.
J. Gericault del. C. Hullmandel's Lithography.
London. Published by Rodwell & Martin New Bond St. May. 1821.
Lithograph, sheet 350 x 480mm (13¾ x 19"), large margins. Several creases, nicks and stains on top margin, slightly stained on publication line.
Scene in a forge with three horses, tethered to a wall-ring. A farrier hammers nails into the hoof of one of the horses, which attempts to bite another horse but it is fended off with a pair of tongs by a second farrier. After Jean Louis André Théodore Géricault (1791-1824). From the only edition of Rodwell and Martin's 'Various Subjects drawn from life on Stone', known as the 'English Series'. Despite its commercial failure at the time, Gericault's 'English Series' is now considered to have been of the greatest importance in the development of lithography as an art form during the first half of the nineteenth century. Due to the comparitively small number of impressions printed before the stones were effaced, exampes of Gericault's lithographs from this series are now exteremelty rare and have always been amongst the most sought after of his original printed works.

La Fiancée d'Abydos (Ch. X) Je t'ai dit que je n'étias pas ceque tu avais cru jusque'ici; tu vois maintenant la vérité de mes paroles. (Lord Byron)
Géricault et Eug. Lami 1823. Lith. de Villain
chez Gihaut b.ard des Italiens N.5
Lithograph, printed area 180 x 180mm (7 x 7"). Collector's stamp of [?]Paul and Véronique Sanchez verso (probably variant of L.3289).
Illustration of Lord Byron's poem 'The Bride of Abydos'. Specifically, the scene corresponds with Canto 2, verse X and the lines 'I said I was not what I seem'd;/ And now thou see'st my words were true'. Salim throws his cloak aside, revealing himself as a dashing pirate, and reveals to Zuleika that she is not his sister. From a set of six lithographs illustrating Byron, by Théodore Géricault (1791-1824) and Eugène Lami (1800-90), of which two were by Lami alone. Prior to 1822, Géricault had been able to live without much thought to the saleability of his works owing to a comfortable annuity he received following the death of his mother. However, the loss of part of his fortune in 1822 required him to produce work designed to appeal to dealers and collectors, with illustrations of exotic literature such as Byron falling into this category.
