MIRÓ -- ÉLUARD, Paul (1895-1952). À toute épreuve. Genève: Gérald Cramer, 1958.
4º (323 x 253mm). 80 woodcuts in colours or in black, including the front cover, some plates heightened with collage; and a duplicate suite of plates printed on china paper. In sheets, as issued, in the original printed wrappers, and in the original vellum-backed chemise and slipcase.
FIRST ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF THIS POEM BY PAUL ELUARD; ‘ONE OF THE MOST TRIUMPHANT FEATS OF BOOK ILLUSTRATION IN OUR CENTURY’ (Soby).
Number VII of XXIV copies, signed by Miró and with a duplicate suite of plates printed on china paper, from an edition of 130 copies only. Miró’s original illustration includes 80 woodcuts, all but 4 in colour, and a few with collage. It took no less than 10 years to complete the book with 233 woodblocks and more than 42,000 runs on the press. When Miró passed away in 1952, only a third of the engravings were completed. But the result was beyond all expectations: ‘a brilliance of invention and a vitality of form and colour sweep through the pages of this most distinguished example of Surrealist book production’ (The Artist and the Book).
Soby, Joan Miró, 29 and pp. 135-139; Malet-Cramer 49; Coron, 50 livres illustrés depuis 1947, 20 (‘Tant de gravures, tant de couleurs, d'invention, de poésie, au service de poèmes d'un si pur accent situaient ce livre parmi les plus beaux illustrés. "Livre de Peintre" devrait-on dire plutôt, tant s'y manifeste l'emprise de Miró, jusque sur le texte qu'il fit imprimer tantôt en gris, tantôt en noir, selon la couleur des gravures voisines’); The Artist and the Book, 209.
