Libaud, im Halbleder und Schuber, Folio, sehr guter ZustandAndré Minaux studierte an der Kunst- und Gewerbeschule in Paris. Um 1948 entdeckt der Künstler im Atelier von Mourlot die Lithografie. Von nun an wird sie zu einer bedeutenden Komponente seines Werks. Er macht Stilleben, Landschaften und realistische Szenen mit farbigen und schwarzen Konturen abgegrenzten Flächen.

Nach einer naturalistischen Periode in den sechziger Jahren erneuert der Künstler seinen Blicke und bringt seine Kunst in die Nähe der lyrischen Abstraktion.

Recorde, Robert. The Castle of Knowledge, scarce and important first edition of "the first comprehensive and original astronomical treatise to be published in English" [History of Science Museum], London: Reginalde Wolfe, 1556. Small folio (250 x 180mm), pp. [xvi], 286, [ii]. NB Eight leaves are supplied in facsimile (pp.209-212 & 217-228). Woodcut allegorical title and numerous illustrations within the text, pagination erratic but all signatures following on correctly and matching the copy in the Smithsonian [Dibner, Heralds of Science], a⁸ A-Z⁶ &⁶. The final leaf includes errata & colophon. [ESTC, S115662]. Internally well-preserved & bright, light handling marks & cockling, occasional early marginalia, small ink marks & blemishes in places, early owner inscriptions on title, marginal pale staining to final quarter, heavier staining to pp.25-34, heavier ink marks to pp.142/143, one short 2cm tear at top edge of p.60, early panelled calf, rebacked, worn but strong. Very scarce Provenance: The front pastedown features typed notes recording the book's passage through the family from Dr. Edward Swinfen (1742-1801) of Long Buckby, Northamptonshire. Armorial bookplate for Edward Swinfen Harris. Bibliographical notes pasted to front free endpaper "The Castle of Knowledge is special for three reasons: for one, it is the oldest surviving original English astronomy book, not merely a translation or abstract of Latin medieval or classical works. Secondly, it is simultaneously one of the first English books on astronomy that mentions and comments on Copernicus’ De revolutionibus orbium caelestium (1543) and the heliocentric system presented therein. Thirdly, and perhaps even more relevant in the context of this study, Recorde not only refers to Plato, but directly to Proclus on several occasions, so we know for a fact that he had immediate access to Neoplatonic source material." [The University of Bayreuth]

Marilyn Monroe (1926-1962). Autograph. Iconic publicity still by Eugene Kornman [also known as Gene Korman], promoting Monroe's film "Niagara", 20th Century Fox [1953], gelatin silver print, 25.8cm by 20.3cm, inscribed & signed in blue ink, 'Thanks Freddie x Marilyn Monroe'. This instantly recognisable image was given lasting fame by Andy Warhol in his Marilyn Diptych [1962]. The photograph is mounted with a typed caption, 'Marilyn Monroe (a 20th Century Fox Star) The girl with the biggest publicity boost during the post war years.' It is housed in an oblong folio album filled with similar publicity photographs depicting various stars of the 1940s to 1960s, including one of Marilyn Monroe with Victor Mature and Anthony Quayle at the Royal Film Performance, 1956, where Monroe famously met HM Queen Elizabeth II, though incorrectly captioned in the album. The album includes signed photographs of John Mills; Horst Buchholz; Leslie Phillips; Anna Neagle [shown meeting HM Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother]; Michael Wilding; Leslie Caron; Kenneth More; Eva Bartok, and Christine Norden. A number of the unsigned photographs depict Freddie Watson (see provenance below), while others depict Rita Hayworth; Peter Cushing; Dermot Walsh; Zena Dare; Trevor Howard; Hazel Court; Kieron Moore; Susan Hayward; Jeffrey Hunter; Glynis Johns (nine photographs), and George Formby (eleven photographs). One photograph shows HRH Princess Margaret shaking hands with Gregory Peck at the UK premiere of "To Kill a Mockingbird" in 1963. The album, which contains a total of 60 photographs, was the personal scrapbook of Fred "Freddie" Watson, a publicity agent and commercial promotions manager. The scrapbook begins with a typed introduction, 'Until the embargo on the import of American films imposed by the British government in 1947, the film industry both British & American offered progress and opportunity. Publicity seemed to be the keynote to the successful presentation of a film and it was in this sphere I met so many of "my friends the stars". Fred Watson. May. 1949.' The photographs are mounted with typed captions by Watson in his role of handling UK publicity arrangements for The Rank Organisation, London Films, Columbia Pictures, and 20th Century Fox. The images of Watson show him working in this capacity. Contents generally well-preserved, though the pages have some undulation/cockling, and a couple of photographs have offsetting/staining from ink signatures. The cover includes a hand-painted design, 'My Friends The Stars'. Album measuring 31cm by 22cm by 5cm Provenance: By descent of Fred "Freddie" Watson, publicity agent and commercial promotions manager
