[RIEMSNIJDER, H.]

Galante dichtluimen.

Zonder plaats of uitgever [= Den Haag, H.H. van Drecht], 1780. Ingenaaid. XVI, 80 p. Niet afgesneden. 1e druk. Aan de buitenkant wat roest. Voorzijde origineel omslag (beschadigd, verkleurd, maar het IS er!) ligt los bij. Vaak toegeschreven aan Bilderdijk, maar de auteur was waarschijnlijk Hendrik Riemsnijder (1743-1825). Eerste uitgave van dit roemruchte erotische werkje, met als motto op de titel: 'Dat zelfs de Scherts der malse Wellust, vrij/ Van Vuigheid en Bordeeltaal zij'. Dit gedicht is kenmerkend:'Raadzel: 'k Ben van gestalte klein; woon in een lom'rig dal Leef steeds bedekt, en ben met pragt noch praal bepaereld- Vogt is mijn voedsel slegts; men kent mij overal;'k Ben stom en doof: nogthans regeert mijn magt de waereld,Schoon hij, die mij genaakt, trotsch en vermetel staat,Verzwakt nogtans zijn moed, eer' hij weêr van mij gaat.'

CARRINGTON - (JEAN DE VILLIOT)

Eaux-fortes pour l’illustration de Étude sur la Flagellation en France & en Angleterre au point de vue médical et historique.

Paris, Charles Carrington, 1898. 28,5 x 19,5 cm. Original plain portfolio - on the inside a leaf has been pasted with title and index with the titles of the seven etchings. An inner envelope contains 7 etching-engravings on loose sheets of handmade paper, uncut. Portfolio a bit worn, ties gone, envelope browned, but etchings in excellent condition. First Edition. These seven illustrations (all of ladies with their skirts up, a rod about to descend on their bare buttocks), according to the printed leaf, were only for sale for those who had bought Étude sur la flagellation. A second leaf pasted at the inside of the envelope advertises the Carrington title Sophie Arnould. Mentioned (but probably not seen) by Pia on col. 429. According to Guacamole (Charles Carrington (1867-1921). Bibliographie eines Verlags. Berlin, 2005), this publication (nr. 236 in his list) should comprise the 7 illustrations in three states. Our copy has only the accounted-for 7 etchings, but in different states: either in a sketchy state with engraved erotic marginalia (2), a state without these dainty additions, but the pictures finished (4), or with an engraved title (1). The artist of these delicate etching-engravings in a style following the 18th century is unknown. Please feel free to ask for pictures.
