Manuel Bruker, was born in 1891 in Radaut, Romania. He was three years old when his family arrived in France and settled in Paris around 1894.

After studying medicine and receiving his doctorate in 1917, he became an ear, nose and throat specialist.

Dr. Manuel Bruker was, in the words of Pierre Mac Orlan, a "book lover" with a real passion for art.

In 1926, at the age of thirty-five, he created his own publishing house on the advice of his friend Dr. Lucien-Graux, "the prince of bibliophiles".

Between 1931 and 1963, Bruker devoted himself to what was to be the most original and personal part of his work as a publisher: the creation of Praise and Portraits of Artists. He chose among his contemporaries those whose work he particularly esteemed; collaborating with them, he commissioned prints to illustrate the texts, which were written by writers or art critics often close to the artist. During these three decades Manuel Bruker publishes forty-six Praises and Portraits.
These works, which testify to the publisher's aspirations in the field of illustrated books - Manuel Bruker considered this field to be "a production in which France has been able to take the lead" - have rarely been brought together. They have been the subject of three exhibitions, the first at the municipal library of Toulouse in 1958, more recently at the Meguro Museum of Tokyo in the fall of 2003, and then at the Museum of Fine Arts of Bordeaux in 2005, from whom we borrow this introduction.

A very rare and complete collection of the 34 "Praises" and 12 "Portraits" published by Manuel Bruker.

If most of these works are easy to find, some are rare, such as the portrait of Hasegawa

Most of them are printed at 200 copies, some at 150 or 250 copies.

Les plus beaux Monuments de Rome Ancienne ou Recueil des plus beaux morceaux de l'Antiquité Romaine qui existent encore. 

Rome, Bouchard & Gravier, 1761.
More Details >
5500 €

First edition of this beautiful collection dedicated to ancient Rome, remarkably illustrated by the painter and engraver Jean Barbault.
117 engravings on 73 leaves, 9 large engraved vignettes in the text, and 1 on the title page.
They depict the principal monuments of antiquity—the Colosseum, the Pantheon, temples, columns, aqueducts, thermal baths, and paintings recently discovered at Herculaneum—some with their plans and bas-relief details.
Several etchings reveal the influence of Piranesi, with whom Barbault collaborated for a time.
The collection presents a true archaeological inventory.

The French painter and engraver Jean Barbault, born in Vienna near Beauvais around 1705, received a scholarship from the Academy of Fine Arts to study in Rome in 1749.
After graduating from the Academy in 1753, he decided not to return to France due to lack of funds and remained in Italy until his death in 1766.

Drawing album bellonging to Alfred Robaut, with his blind-stamped monogram on the upper cover.

A draftsman and lithographer, Robaut is best known as the author of the first catalog of works by Eugène Delacroix and Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, painters for whom he greatly admired.

He learned to paint from his father, Felix Robaut, who taught embroidery design at the Douai Academy. In 1853, he married the eldest daughter of the painter Constant Dutilleux, through whom he came into contact with Delacroix and Corot.

This album contains numerous drawings by Alfred Robault's close friends and artists from the North (Alfred Robaut, Felix Robaut, and some of his students, as well as Constant Dutilleux).
We thus find about twenty drawings by Constant Dutillleux (3 are signed, the others attributed in the margin) by his father, 10 are attributed to Félix Robaut, 18 to Alfred Robaut, others to northern artists or former students of Felix Robaut. (2 drawings signed HP attributed to Henry Pluchard, 1 sketch by Henri Regnault with the stamp of the sale of his studio, 1 signed by De La Rochenoire, 1 signed by Célestin Lepollart, 2 drawings attributed to Caullet, 1 attributed to Abel de Pujol, 1 signed by Ambroise Détrez, 3 attributed to Pierre Billet, ...).

Second edition.
A new edition by Claude Antoine Jombert, who had just acquired the original copperplates from the descendants of the architect.
Antoine Desgodetz was sent to Rome, where he stayed for sixteen months in 1676–1677, to survey and measure ancient monuments with great precision. The purpose was well conceived, as he had already observed discrepancies in the dimensions—and thus the proportions—given in classical works on the subject.
The result was a work of obvious utility and great beauty: Desgodetz’s drawings were engraved by excellent artists, including Louis de Chastillon, Nicolas Guérard, and Jean and Pierre Lepautre. Each plate is accompanied by a facing descriptive notice specifying the measurements of the various elements and pointing out the errors in earlier treatises.
The work was justly admired and underwent several reissues. It is all the more surprising to learn that, unlike most ancient treatises, it has not lost its value: even today’s archaeologists—far more demanding than the amateurs of the past—still recognize its accuracy and usefulness.

A complete copy, with all 137 required plates.

2500 €

First edition.
This work is a treatise on optical illusions and anamorphic perspectives, written by Nicéron, a monk of the order of Minims and mathematician of the 17th century. In it, he explores the principles of geometry applied to perspective, in particular the deformations of images that are only correctly revealed from a certain angle or through a mirror.
La Perspective Curieuse is a major work in the history of visual perception and art, influencing both artists and scientists of its time.
The discussion in the fourth part is particularly famous for being the first reference to the law of refraction developed by Descartes that same year.

First edition printed at 400 numbered copies (n° 35), with 68 caricatures by Georges BASTIA (1904-1980), on 61 plates, , representing the stars of the show of the time such as Sacha Guitry, Jean Gabin, Gérard Philippe, Madeleine Renaud, Jean-Louis Barrault, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Marais, Simone Signoret, Yves Montand, Yvonne Printemps, Bourvil, Michel Simon, etc.

Although bearing the same title and including the same preface as the work published by Éditions Héracléïa v. 1946, this work is completly different.

The rarity of this edition comes from the fact that the quality of the plates which compose it is such that they are often sold separately and sometimes by mistake as original works.
Indeed, each lithograph has een enhanced with gouache by the artist, which gives a kind of uniqueness to each copy.

The story of the four Aymon sons is a legendary tale, which was originally a gesture song from the French Carolingian era. The four heroes, sons of Duke Aymon, are introduced to the emperor Charlemagne and will live many adventures accompanied by an enchanter and a magical horse.
Their adventures are finely illustrated by Eugène Grasset (1845-1917), one of the representatives of Art Nouveau. It combines, with delicacy and simplicity, iconography inspired by the Middle Ages and the Knighthood with Art Nouveau style (with stylized forms and characteristic ornamental motifs such as flowers).

Georges Champion (1889–1940) was a French decorator and furniture designer. He was born in Chaumont. He was professionally active in Paris. Champion’s designs were known for their sleek lines and modern aesthetic. The Art Deco movement, which was well-liked in the early 20th century, had a significant influence on him. His furniture pieces often featured geometric shapes and bold colours, which made them stand out from more traditional designs. In addition to his work as a furniture designer, Champion was also a skilled decorator. He worked on numerous high-profile projects throughout his career, including the interior design of several Parisian hotels and restaurants.

This work is undoubtedly Gus Bofa's book with which his admirers have the most intimate connection. We find in these vignettes all the mastery of this brilliant stylist, and this sense of graphic formula which made him one of the fathers of modern drawing. In 40 satirical drawings Gus Bofa summarizes the work of 40 literary personalities from Proust to Loti via Schopenauer and René Maran. L'Agoisse with Edgar Poe, L'Intime with Zola, La Tentation with France, including the racist pun with Maran (black square for a black poet).

First edition.
Rare publication on the construction of the Croton Aqueduct.
Following the Cholera epidemic of 1832, the city of New York, whose population was exploding at the time (the most populated city in the United States as early as 1820), decided to build an aqueduct to bring drinking water from the Catskills to the heart of the city.
The construction site, which spanned 40.5 miles (65 kilometers) from 1837 to 1842, was led by John B. Jervis and secured New York's water supply. It was then one of the largest works of hydraulic architecture, linking reservoirs, tunnels, and bridges. The Aqueduct remained in service until 1955.
It was the first of the monumental infrastructures that would make New York a new Rome.

The horse has always been at the center of Chagall's dreamlike work, it is an animal that is almost always present in the paintings of the Russian master. It is therefore natural that Manuel Bruker asked the painter to illustrate this short story by Claire Goll.
Chagall and Goll will become friends and Chagall will draw the tomb of Yvan and Claire Goll after the death of the latter in 1977.

Twenty-eight books and exhibition catalogs relating to the work of Théodore Géricault.

This collection comes from the documentation library of the art dealer Maurice Gobin (later his son Francis).
Maurice Gobin was also a collector of Delacroix's works and from time to time we see works by Delacroix from his collection on the market.
In 1935 he organized an important "Exposition de Dessins Aquarelles & Gouaches, par Géricault" (see n.2).

1. GOBIN, Maurice. Géricault : 1791-1824 dans la collection d'un amateur. 1958.
Catalog of 59 watercolors and drawings by Géricault from Maurice Gobin's personal collection.
Maurice Gobin copy's, who added a corrective note to his entry for issue no. 48.
2. GOBIN, Maurice. Exposition du 5 au 21 décembre 1935 de Dessins Aquarelles & Gouaches, par Géricault 1791-1824.
Two copies of the catalog for this exhibition - Maurice Gobin, copiously annotated these copies. They contain details, corrections, mention of pieces not in the catalog, ...
Very interesting. Attached are two typescript sheets "signed by Maurice Gobin's expertise" of the works loaned for this exhibition with the names of the lenders and the value of the works.
3. La belle France - n°11. 1936. with a 2-page article reporting on Maurice Gobin's Géricault exhibition. Poor condition.
4. [GOBIN, Maurice], Collection de Monsieur M.G... Vente du Jeudi 9 juin 1960. Hotel Drouot Salle N°8.
Catalogue of the sale of works from the Maurice Gobin collection. It includes several works from his Géricault collection (see no. 1). A copy by Maurice Gobin with all the auction prices noted and sometimes the names of the buyers.
5. Exposition Géricault 24 avril – 16 mai 1924 à l'Hôtel Jean Carpentier. Covers in poor condition and loose. With the rare supplement sheet (additional works from nos. 338-359).
6. Marie Sterner Galleries. First exhibition of Gericault Painting – Drawings. November 16 to December 5, 1936.
Copy of Maurice Gobin filled with the list (with prices) of the works belonging to him and for sale at this exhibition and the copy of the letter sent by Maurice Gobin to Mary Sterner on March 20, 1937 in which he is surprised not to have had any news and asks which of these works have been sold.
7. BERGER, Klaus. Gericault Drawings and Watercolors. 1946. Presentation copy to Maurice Gobin.
A copiously annotated copy by Maurice Gobin, providing clarification on certain works, calling into question the attribution to Géricault, particularly one of them. Indeed, Berger claims that it was exhibited in 1935 by Gobin (see no. 2), but Gobin asserts (supported by a photo filled with notes) that it is not the same work.
This copy is peppered with correspondence between Gobin and Berger. A first letter from Berger (1945) in which he thanks Gobin for sending two Géricault works (we have found which ones) and the others (about ten pages) after the publication of the book, with vigorous exchanges about Berger's attribution of certain works to Géricault.
8. BERGER, Klaus. Gericault und Sein Werk. 1952.
This German edition reproduces 95 of Géricault's works, compared to 52 in the first edition (see no. 7). A few annotations by Maurice Gobin and 1 attached leaflet where he specifies, according to him, the drawings which seem to him "beautiful, very beautiful, true", "good or quite good, plausible or questionable" and the last ones "mediocre or bad, impossible or false".
9. EITNER, Lorenz. Deux Oeuvres inconnues de Géricault au Musée d'art Moderne. Offprint from bulletin des musées royaux des Beaux Arts. Juin 1953.
