In the original publisher's full cloth binding. Externally very smart with minor shelf wear only, light bumping and fading to head and tail of spine.

VOLTAIRE (François-Marie AROUET, dit) - PRUVOST (Jack ou Paul, ill. de).

Candide.

S.l. Kra / Coll. ''Poivre et sel'', (1928). Un vol. au format gd in-8 (213 x 164 mm) de 225 pp. broché, sous couverture à rabats rempliés. Un des exemplaires numérotés du tirage sur vélin de Rives (seul papier). Il s'agrémente - ici en premier tirage - de savoureuses compositions en couleurs de Jack Pruvost. ''Natif de Merville, il a illustré Candide de Voltaire''. (in Bénézit). Oeuvre ironique dès les premières lignes, volontiers sarcastique à l'égard le conservatisme social de la noblesse arrogante, elle s'avère annonciatrice du Figaro de Beaumarchais. Mais Candide est également un récit de formation, narrant le voyage qui transformera son héros éponyme en philosophe. En somme, un Télémaque d'un genre nouveau.. Mahé, Répertoire des éditions de luxe, p. 199 - Bénézit VIII, Dictionnaire des peintres, p. 514. Plats présentant un éclat légèrement altéré. Marques brunes en tête et queue du dos ; lequel est en outre légèrement ridé. Rares et discrètes rousseurs dans le texte. Un feuillet légèrement effrangé. Du reste, belle condition. Exemplaire non coupé.
