RELVAS (Carlos)

ALBUM de Photypias da Exposição Retrospectiva de Arte Ornamental em Lisboa. Clichés de C. Relvas e Photyp. de J. Leiipold. Lisboa: Impresso na Officina de J. Leipold, 1883.

[8], 64 pp., 55 phototypias impressas, [2] pp.; 460 mm. Beautiful copy, clean and sharp, with editorial binding with calf spine and cloth covers in a modern cloth box; gilded edges; a small amount of foxing on some folios.

EDITION of only 55 copies of a selection of clichés obtained by Carlos Relvas at the Retrospective Exhibition of Ornamental Art. According to António Sena, Carlos Relvas will have taken 512 clichés during the last 20 days of the exhibition, making four luxurious and distinct editions from his photographs, this one of 50 copies and which is added with texts on art; another of 3 or 5 copies in two folders containing 123 and 201 collotypes and another two, which António Sena considers unique, with more than five hundred collotypes signed in pencil by Relvas. Very rare.
