Printed completed on January 22: 1963 on the presses de l'Imprimerie Nationale de France, Daniel Gibelin, director. Georges Arnoult, inspector of typography. This work was composed by hand in characters called "Romain du Roi Corps” engraved in 1699 by Grandjean on the order of Louis XIV, the original lithographies were drawn by Mourlot Frères, and the stones erased after printing. Justification of the draw; one hundred and eighty examples on a grand vélin d'Arches décomposant as follows: ten examples, numbered to the press from 1 to 10, including a sequel on japon nacré, the original lithographies signed by the artists and a sequel on Arches; twenty examples, numbered to the press from 11 to 30, including a suite on Arches of the original lithographies; one hundred and twenty examples, numbered from 31 to 150; thirty non-trade examples, marked H.C., reserved for the authors, artists and artisans of the folio. All colophons are signed by the ten authors and the ten artists. MAURICE BRIANCHON (1899-1979) began his official art training at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs in Paris in 1917. Early public recognition of his talent came when, at the age of 23, he was appointed a member of the committee of the Salon d'Automne. By 1934 Brianchon's career was established. The 1950s brought Brianchon national and international acclaim. The Musee des Arts Decoratifs presented a retrospective exhibition of his work at the Palais du Louvre in 1951. His first American exhibition was hosted by David Findlay Galleries in New York in 1959. In the following two decades Brianchon began spending less time in Paris and more time at his country home in Perigord which eventually affected his paintings. The dynamic images of horse races, theater stages and street scenes painted by the young artist enamored with city life were gradually replaced by the equally beautiful, though more relaxed and contemplative, landscapes and still lifes of a mature artist savoring his elder years in the country. Brianchon continued to exhibit regularly in the art-centers of the world until his death in 1979.
