Mucha - 8 Pages with Ornate Illustrations
This attractive color lithograph is by Alphonse Mucha as part of the work by Robert de Flers entitled Ilsee, Princess of Tripoli or Ilsée, Prinzessin von Tripolis. The work was published in Prague by B. Koci in 1901. This is from a German edition translated by Regine Adler and a limited edition of 800.
This work was considered one of the finest examples of Mucha's book illustrations. (Ray, The Art of the French Illustrated Book 366) According to the Mucha Foundation, by the time Robert de Flers completed the manuscript for the story, Mucha had only three months to complete the 134 lithographs to illustrate the text. He later wrote: “We worked on four stones simultaneously. I did some of the drawings straight onto the stone. Other things, particularly the decorative edgings, I drew on tracing paper which was then passed on to the draughtsmen who continued the work with the colors I specified. I hardly had time to sketch out the motif for an ornament when they came and took it from my hands and got down to work on it.”
