    Hardcover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. What could they have had in common-Count Balthazar Klossowski de Rola, the Paris-born modern artist (better known as Balthus) who has filled scores of canvases with paintings of female nudes, and Mistress Emily Brontė, the mid-nineteenth century British spinster who seems never to have left the Yorkshire moors? Precisely, those moors. In his youth, the Count visited that wild landscape and, in 1933, made a series of drawings based on her gripping novel. Some say that he saw himself as Heathcliff. Sixty-one years later, and after creating a vast array of famous paintings, many reminiscent of those drawings, Balthus agreed in 1994 to have The Limited Editions Club present, for the first time in their destined context, the entire suite of fifteen drawings. Happy to behold their fruition, Balthus wrote an Afterword for the book. Fifteen lithographs and Afterword by Balthus. Edition limited to 300 numbered copies. Each signed by Balthus. The Balthus drawings have been turned into lithographic plates and printed, in brown-toned black ink, on fine Japanese paper by Bruce Porter at his Trestle Editions in New York City. They were mounted on mould made paper from the Arches mill, in Epinal, France. The text was also printed on this paper, uniquely watermarked with the coat of arms of the family Klossowski de Rola. The book is bound in Nigerian goatskin dyed gray-green to suggest the Yorkshire moors. Linen covered and lined case. One Volume, 12-3/4 x 16-1/2 inches. As the publisher, we unconditionally guarantee that all books are authentic and the condition is As New (NOS). Signed by Illustrator(s).

    420 x 315 mm. (16 1/2 x 12 1/2"). 3 p.l., 208 pp., [2] leaves.With an afterword by Balthus. Publisher's sage-green crushed morocco, upper board with title stamped in brown, smooth spine. In the original linen clamshell box. With 15 lithographs by Balthus. Colophon with small embossed armorial stamp. Prospectus laid in at front. āIn mint condition. Printed on beautifully thick paper, this impressive oversized production brings together an intense 19th century gothic novel and the work of a major modern artist, both inspired by the power and rugged beauty of the Yorkshire moors. "Wuthering Heights" was first published in 1847 under the pen name Ellis Bell, and it was to be Emily Brontė's first and only novel. Though many contemporary reviewers found the story strange and disturbing, her potent language and enthralling characters have secured it a place among the classics of English literature. The modern (and sometimes controversial) artist Balthasar Klossowski de Rola (known as Balthus) wouldn't seem a likely choice to illustrate this work; in fact, the two could hardly be more different. Brontė (1818-48) was a parson's daughter who spent most of her life in an isolated village in northern England, while Balthus (1908-2001) was a famous cosmopolitan painter whose friends included Pablo Picasso and Albert Camus. But the pair had at least one thing in common: a deeply felt connection to the Yorkshire moors. In Bathus' own words, recounting a visit to northern England made when he was a young man, "the wild beauty of the moors around Haworth . . . left an indelible impression on me." Years later, in 1933, still inspired by what he had seen, Balthus made a series of 15 drawings to accompany the novel that is practically synonymous with the moors. Compelling, moody, and a little wild, these drawings are a formidable complement to Brontė's words. The LEC Newsletter, introducing the present work, notes the "incisive linear quality" of the black & white drawings; Balthus' biographer and critic, Jean Leymarie, is also quoted, describing the work as "lit up with something of the book's flame and storm-flashes." It is also worth noting that this impressive production marks the first time these 15 illustrations appear alongside the text that inspired them--60 years after Balthus completed them. No. 15 OF 300 COPIES SIGNED by the artist.
