Lot Description

[ERAGNY PRESS]. RONSARD, Pierre de (1524-1585). Abregé de l'Art Poetique François. London: Eragny Press, 1903.

8vo. Wood-engraved frontispiece, border, initials, illustrations and printer's device by Esther Pissarro after Lucien Pissarro; with original prospectus laid in. Original floral patterned boards gilt (rubbing, endpapers lightly browned as usual).

LIMITED EDITION, one of 226 copies. The Eragny Press was founded by Lucien Pissarro in 1894. Heavily inspired by the English Arts and Crafts movement, Pissarro's press also infused the works with a modern sensibility influenced by Pissarro's father, the French Impressionist artist Camille Pissarro.
