(1780-1857): Poniatowski. Hatons-nous. Chansons dédiées au Général Lafayette,
premier grenadier de la garde nationale polonaise, suivies du 14 Juillet 1829, et des
couplets a mes amis devenus ministres, par Béranger. Paris: a l’agence du Comité,
[1831]. 23 pp., + 4 illustrations and 2 autograph letters, octavo. Quarter morocco
with blue marbled boards, edges and corners a little rubbed, original printed blue
wrappers bound in. An extra-illustrated copy with a line-engraving of Béranger
(covering “two” pages”) by Brebant after the portrait by A. Masson, three portraits of
Poniatowski, one lithographed and two engraved, and with autograph letters signed by
Béranger and by Lafayette. Béranger’s letter to Wilhelm discusses proofs of his Le
Roi d’Yvetot, the mistakes they contain and his entitlement to copies; he also discusses
a possible issue of other works. Le Roi d’Yvetot, included in Béranger’s first
collection, was a satire against Napoleon, about which Louis XVIII remarked: “We
must excuse the author of Le Roi d’Yvetot of many things”. “Le caveau”, referred to
in the letter, is probably the Caveau Moderne, to which Béranger was elected in 1813.
Both Les Gueux and Le Roi d’Yvetot were circulated widely in the form of manuscript
copies, and the acclamantion they received contributed much to his growing
reputation as a song writer.
Lafayette’s letter to Grandmenil, dated 29 August 1831, states his readiness to receive
the Commission des Condamnés Politiques at any time, but as he has to be out a great
deal, he recommends between 10 and 11am. £1,200

65) [RECUEIL]: Receuil de Duo. [France: ca. 1780]. Oblong 12mo. 165 ff.
Manuscript vocal lines to a collection of French songs (pp. 1-144) and Italian songs
(pp. 181-275); pp. 113-131, 146-180 and 276-287 unused, with an unpaginated index
on the final leaves. Each page with an engraved decorative border incorporating
flowers and sea-shells, each exquisitely hand-coloured. Contemporary French red
morocco, gilt, side with dentelle, at centre a chain of flowers forming the letter “M”
surrounded by a wreath, backstrip lettered “RECUEIL / DE DUO / 2ME. / DESSUS /
M”, gilt inner dentelles, blue silk doublures, gilt edges, a superb production. £3,800
The letter “M” in a festoon is characteristic of Derome, see for example his binding to
David Garrick’s copy of Lucretius, where the covers contain a floral monogram of Gs
surmounted by a wreath. The rich dentelle border is well-suited to the romanticism of
the songs themselves whose refrains include ‘Aimex moi comme je voues aime’, ‘Je
veux toujours boire, chanter et rire’, ‘Ah! quelle recompense mon coeur nage dans le
plaisir’, ‘L’amour est jaloux l’amour est jaloux de ses droites’, ‘Une égale tendresse
va combler nos desirs, va combler nos dessirs’, ‘Dieu d’amour tes douces chaines
valente mieux que la liberté’. Leather bookplate of Mortimer L. Schiff to verso of
front end-paper (see Sotheby’s New York, 7 July 1938, lot 1145).
