Description
Original 1939 photogravure (heliogravure) bifolium from Verve Vol. II, Nos. 5-6 (special double number, directed by Tériade). The spread pairs Auguste Rodin after Josef Breitenbach with James McNeill Whistler after Alvin Langdon Coburn. Intact two-page sheet as issued-ink-on-paper intaglio prints, not modern reproductions. Center fold and inner (gutter) margins preserved with sewing nicks visible. Rich gravure tones with light perimeter toning and routine handling consistent with Verve. Untrimmed and ready to mat or frame.
