Souvenirs of Auguste Borget
HUTCHEON, Robin
South China Morning Post Hong Kong 1979 First Edition
4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Hard Cover Publishers original green cloth with black lettering to spine. Minor shelf wear. Dustwrapper: unclipped, sunned spine, now protected in Brodart. Pale blue endpapers, no inscriptions. Frontis: colour plate. 125pp. including 13 full page colour plates. Profusely illustrated throughout text with b/w illustrations. Pages clean and bright in firm binding. A beautiful copy. This is a book that is mainly pictorial because Borget was a man who in later years pulled a shroud of secrecy over his private life and his earlier correspondence with the French author Honore Balzac was destroyed. However, this book by Robin Hutcheon throws new light on his Borget's life and travels and draws extensively from his published letters and articles. Many pictures by Borget both in China and other parts of the world are published for the first time and there is a selection of some of his outstanding works in colour, including oils from French museums.
