Description
APOLLINAIRE (Guillaume). [PIA (Pascal)]. *Le Verger des Amours*. Monaco, n.p., 1924 [Paris, René Bonnel, 1927]. In-8, fawn half-shagreen with corners, smooth spine, initials H.E. gilded at the tail, gilded head, cover and spine (contemporary binding). First edition.
This collection of erotic poems is not by Apollinaire: it is a skilful pastiche by Pascal Pia.
The illustrations feature six erotic drypoint engravings by Foujita, including a frontispiece and five compositions within the text, all unsigned.
Printed in an edition of only 100 copies; this is one of 90 on Rives laid paper in the standard format (no. 52).
Hinges and caps slightly rubbed, a small tear on one corner, the colour of the chagrin slightly faded.
Pia, 1497 – Dutel, no. 2587.
