Two small broadsides, 1830 and 1831; 8 x 5 and 8 1/4 x 4 3/4; off-white stock, in Fraktur; tiny nicks to lower corners; mild age-toning to margins; faint stamps "Ex Bibliot : Rigens" to upper left margin; in very good condition.Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Fleischer, pseud. Artamos, Kreopola, Thearos (1777 - 1831) was a German author, translator, educator, and actor. At various times in his career he taught at the University of Konigsberg, published a journal, titled "Der Spiegel," and performed at theaters in Konigsberg, St. Petersburg, and Riga. He also ran a boarding house in the early 1800s in Riga and wrote poetry and theater reviews. Of his current poems, the first was an ode to the liberation of Russia from the country's French invasion, known as the Patriotic War of 1812. Written during the reign of Nicholas I, it proclaimed that the spirit of his brother Alexander (in power during the war) was looking down from the starry heights, sending good luck and blessings. The second one (unsigned, but attributed to Fleischer) commemorated the birthday of the son of Nicholas I - Aleksander II Nikolaevich, later to become Emperor of Russia, known as Alexander the Liberator for his emancipation of Russia's serfs.

Softcover. 0 (illustrator). First editions, two volumes; folio: 16 1/2 x 11 1/2; pp. 30 and 32 respectively; mustard and black wraps, printed in red, white, and gray; a bit of wear and small nicks to corners and edges; illustrated with photographs by Petrusov, Shterzer, Grigoriev, and others; cover art design by O. Deinek; overall in very good condition.One of the most artistic gems from the beginning of the Social Realism period, the journal was published monthly from 1930 to 1941 and, briefly, in 1949 in Russian, German, English, French, and, later, Spanish. The self-proclaimed purpose of the magazine was to portray Russia as an emerging industrial power, or "to publish a special illustrated magazine 'The USSR in Construction,' reflecting the colossal construction now taking place in the Soviet Union." The various issues often featured lavish fold-out illustrations, die-cuts, and photographic plates. The publication also drew articles from the most beloved authors of the times, including Isaac Babel and Sergei Tretiakov, and some of the most talented photo-journalists and artists - Georgii Zelma, Max Penson, Max Alpert, and others - as after Stalin's proclamation that Constructivism was bourgeois and the only acceptable form of art was Social Realism - photomontage was an alternative mode of expression to them all. The cover art on most of the issues was designed by El Lissitzky and his wife Sophie Lissitzky-Kuppers and Alexander Rodchenko and wife, Varvara Stepanova. Though initially the journal focused on featuring large industrial and construction projects, it later expanded its scope to cover sports, politics, transportation, and more. The current issues were dedicated to the textile and metallurgical industries, etc.

Original staple-stitched pictorial wrappers by Rodchenko; 77, [3] pp. Good or better; pre-war stamps of a publishing house archive; a few nicks and light chipping to wrapper edges. First and only edition of this biography of Louise Michel (1830?1905), a French anarchist, school teacher, medical worker, and member of the Paris Commune. With a short bibliography of translations of Michel's writings into Russian, as well as essays and books about her by her contemporaries (including Kropotkin). Written in a lively, captivating style, with chapter headings such as "What did Louise Michel strive for and preach" and "What was Louise Michel's mistake?" With a constructivist cover design by Alexander Rodchenko.Given the book's scarcity ? in spite of the 5,000 copy print run ? it must have been confiscated for political reasons after publication, possibly in connection with the author, Ol'ga Vasil'evna Neustroeva, about whom we were unable to find any further information.As of December 2023, KVK, OCLC show a sole copy at the Art Gallery of Ontario.

FIRST EDITION OF "THE GREAT OPUS OF REDOUTÉ . AMONG THE MOST IMPORTANT MONUMENTS OF BOTANICAL ILLUSTRATION EVER TO BE PUBLISHED" (Stafleu in Hunt/Redoutéana). Stafleu further writes that "This series of one hundred and twenty colored plates, plus the series of over five hundred plates in his "Les liliacées" constitute the highest peak of Redouté's artistic and botanical achievement . They have well-proportioned full-page illustrations which suit the size of the page: the lay-out and relative proportions of paper and drawing are in perfect balance. The execution of the presswork and of the hand retouching . is superb . "Les liliacées" . surpasses in size but only equals in beauty of the "Jardin de la Malmaison." The work was originally issued in 20 installments between April 1803 and November 1805. The Empress Joséphine's most important and enduring legacy was the creation of the gardens at the Château de Malmaison, just west of Paris-which she purchased in 1798 and named after her father's plantation in St. Lucia-and in the commission of several books dealing with its botanical treasures. Enormous sums were spent on expanding the estate and eventually the gardens and park comprised 726 hectares (or nearly 1,800 acres or 2.8 square miles). The gardens were designed in the style of a "jardin paysager," which was much in vogue at the beginning of the nineteenth century. She employed distinguished botanists and horticulturists that included Thomas Blaikie and André Dupont, both horticultural experts,the Scottish gardener Alexander Howatson, and the French botanist Jacques Philippe Martin Cels. With their expert assistance and Joséphine's connoisseurship, "[t]he abundance of rare plants and their careful selection transformed Malmaison into a horticultural enclave in an otherwise French monoculture at the beginning of the nineteenth century. At its peak, Josephine's garden included more than two hundred and fifty varieties of plants. She was constantly in touch with the great plant collectors and nurserymen of her time; and even corresponded and traded with the enemy She even shared the costs of a botanical collecting voyage to the Cape of Good Hope with the firm of Lee & Kennedy of Hammersmith" (Griesinger). To document her important plant collection, Joséphine commissioned several books among which was "Jardin de la Malmaison," with text by the eminent botanist E.P. Ventenat and 120 engraved plates after Redouté , which were executed by a legion of fifteen engravers. In his dedication, Ventenat praises the illustrated specimens as a conjunction of "the rarest plants of the French soil [and] the sweetest souvenir of the conquests of your illustrious consort." Upon Joséphine's premature death in 1814, the house and gardens were sold by the children of her first marriage in order to acquit the enormous debt she had amassed. "Today the park is reduced to a one-hundredth of its former size The chateau and a small park surrounding it are all that is left" (Griesinger). 6.5V.2C. REFERENCES: Dunthorne 255; Great Flowe".
