I found this site while researching it for the description. I will have it on the website once the catalogue is finished in early November (swanngalleries.com). It's a lovely copy and is number 30 of 100 (from a total edition of 125).<br /><br />Christine von der Linn<br />Senior Specialist<br />Art, Architecture, Press & Illustrated Books<br />Illustration Art<br />Swann Auction Galleries<br />104 East 25th St.<br />New York, NY 10010<br />(212) 254-4710 ext. 20<br />cvonderlinn@swanngalleries.com<br /> Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12924285724698633491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-340634554199883217.post-79742003399658473142013-08-12T16:36:32.934+01:002013-08-12T16:36:32.934+01:00Hi Martin, lovely to hear from you.

You are way beyond me in knowledge of these obscure Marcel Roux items - I didn't know about the coloured woodcuts from the Fequet atelier, or the album Gestes, and I don't think the Musée Marcel Roux know about them either! I have no idea why he is credited as Marc Roux on Descente dans le Maelstrom - I have a feeling it was the publisher who decided to call him Marc not Marcel - maybe that was how he was known by his friends. Fascinating uncovering the tracks of these long-lost artists...Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18020242863144175965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-340634554199883217.post-3606948680169334112013-08-10T19:21:15.569+01:002013-08-10T19:21:15.569+01:00Thanks for more on MarcelRoux,Neil.I recently boug...Thanks for more on MarcelRoux,Neil.I recently bought(and sold)aportfolio of six coloured woodcuts from the atelier of the printer Marthe Fequet,limited to 30copies only,with an original gouache inscribed to Fequet.Alas,I fear I shall never see another one!But subsequently I acquired from the same source three more gouaches,one dated 1916,one large black and white woodcut,inscribed,and and inscribed copy of his edition of Poe's "Descente dans le Maelstrom",for which he used the name Marc Roux.I also have a flyer for his album of 16 woodcuts"Gestes",with text by Raymond Duncan,self-published from his own atelier ,9,Rue Falguiere,Paris.This book I have never seen...and I want it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09287771248567051545noreply@blogger.com
