Description
This is from a series of folios on the Exposition Internationale de 1937, by Gabriel Henriot, Editions d’Art Charles Moreau, 8, rue du Prague.
It consists of 48 plates, with lighting by Printz, Adnet, Leleu, Subes, Genet et Michon, Perzel and others. It is especially intriguing, as electric lighting was still quite new, and so interesting to see how different designers exploited (or failed to exploit) its properties. These period publications have become quite rare, and are wonderful reference for a dealer or serious collector. This is in very nice condition.
