VOODOO FIRE IN HAITI
by Loederer, Richard
- Used
- Hardcover
New York: The Literary Guild, 1935. Large octavo. Gilt cloth. Illustrated throughout by the author. Cloth a bit hand- smudged, but very good in bright, probably supplied pictorial dust jacket. Literary Guild printing of the American edition, printed from the plates of the Doubleday printing. Translated from the German by Desmond Ivo Vesey. The Austrian- American artist's most widely known work, based in large part on his own travels to Haiti. This copy bears Loederer's ten line, 1945 presentation inscription to designer/artist/illustrator P. K. Thomajan, attended by a full-page color water-color and ink drawing, signed, of a bare-breasted woman engaged in what one must presume is a voodoo dance. Loederer's bookplate is laid in, along with two a.pcs.s. ("Dick") from Loederer to Thomajan, one from Vancouver (Nov. 28, no year), and one from Hollywood, postmarked 8 October 1946. The first incorporates three small humorous drawings, the second has affixed a small photo of the author and a Native American chief, on the occasion of a trip to Arizona. A decent lot.

Description:
[Np, ca. 1917].. Approximately 22 x 11 cm, in contemporary mat (the latter 35.5 x 25 cm). Mat edgeworn and somewhat dust darkened, with a few minor spots, but generally very good. A charming period drawing, inscribed as a gift to his model, Hildegarde Hirsch on the mat: "To Hildegarde on her sixteenth birthday. Rockwell." There is also a small 'H' in the lower right foreground of the image in his hand. Hildegarde Hirsch was a performer with the Ziegfeld Follies, and was both Kent's model and his lover. "The reference to 'sixteenth' birthday is facetious, as there is evidence that she was in her 20s when they met and may have been married and separated prior to the relationship with RK" - Stanley, REDISCOVERING ROCKWELL KENT. The drawing was published, without color, in the November 1917 issue of VANITY FAIR, and this original was included in the 1997 Grolier Club exhibition. GROLIER (STANLEY) 9.

Description:
[Probably Big Sur, CA.], no date.. Original watercolor on paper, 19.5 x 21cm, matted. Not examined out of mount, but visible portions a trace tanned, otherwise near fine. A characteristic watercolor, likely painted during the period of Miller's residence in Big Sur, when he actively solicited financial assistance in exchange for his paintings to enable him to survive and continue writing (ref: AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL AND SUNDRY, etc etc). The dominant colors are shades of blue and black. The painting depicts a male and a female figure, in a bathtub, exposed from mid- chest up. Not signed by Miller, but inscribed by his friend Emil White, who functioned during his Big Sur residence (1944-62) as his aide/secretary in correspondence with painting customers and the public: "This was painted but not signed by H.M. E. White."

[Np: The Artist, ca. 1962].. Original watercolor on paper (13.5 x 8"; 345 x 200 mm). Signed by the artist in the left lower corner, and captioned in pencil on verso. About fine. A close-up full-body rendering of a pangolin next to a waterhole, with a suggestion of its focusing on its own reflection in the water. This watercolor was painted at the approximate time of Parker's work on the illustrations for the limited edition of Marianne Moore's EIGHT POEMS, published by the Museum of Modern Art. It is a much more detailed and finished piece than the drawings executed for that work.
