[EN] Folio (42,5 x 33 cm), loose as issued in publisher's printed wrappers, publisher's chemise and slipcase. Poems by Fouad El-Etr. An aesthete of an elegance from another age, Fouad El-Etr has fashioned a poetic oeuvre rich in collections whose very titles invite reverie: "Comme une pieuvre que son encre efface" (1977), "Arraché à la nuit" (1987), "Le Nuage d'infini" (1995) and "Le Souffleur de verre" (2003). 9 monochrome soft-ground etching by Sam Szafran. From the edition limited to 200 numbered copies, with this one of 40 artist's copies on papier vélin d'Arches, signed by the author and the artist, with an additional suite of the etchings. Unique copy, illuminated by Szafran, with 9 etchings heightened in watercolor and a full watercolor composition covering the boards of the chemise. A graphic exploration of the serrated leaves of the Monstera deliciosa, a tropical plant native to the forests of southern Mexico. This motif, omnipresent in the work of Sam Szafran, first emerged in 1966, when he was living in the studio of Zao Wou-Ki: "Au printemps 1966, Jean-Paul Riopelle m'avait présenté Zao Wou-Ki et sa femme May, que j'adorais. Très gen-timent, ils m'ont prêté leur atelier pendant l'été, mais j'ai été absolument incapable d'y travailler : j'étais fasciné par un magnifique philodendron - rare à l'époque dans une maison - qui resplendissait sous la verrière, et qu'il m'était impossible de dessiner. Cette impuis-sance était devenue une obsession". Provenance : Bibliothèque Lilette et Sam Szafran. Lite-rature: Antoine Coron, Bibliographie de La Délirante, Éditions du Centre Pompidou, 1982, n°26, p. 121-122. [FR] In-folio (42,5 x 33 cm), en feuilles, couverture imprimée, étui-chemise de l'éditeur. Poèmes de Fouad El-Etr. Esthète d'une élégance d'un autre temps, l'auteur a créé une oeuvre poétique riche de recueils dont les titres eux-mêmes invitent à la rêverie. 9 gravures au vernis mou de Sam Szafran, dont 1 placée en frontispice. Tirage à 200 exemplaires. Un des 40 exemplaires d'artiste sur papier vélin d'Arches, signés par l'auteur et l'artiste comportant une suite supplémentaire des gravures. Exemplaire enluminé par Szafran, orné de 9 gravures rehaussées à l'aquarelle et d'une composition à l'aquarelle couvrant les plats de la chemise. Déclinaison graphique autour des feuilles dentelées du Monstera Deliciosa, plante tropicale originaire des forêts du sud du Mexique. Ce thème, omniprésent dans l'oeuvre de Sam Szafran, prend naissance en 1966 lorsqu'il réside dans l'atelier de Zao Wou-Ki : "Au printemps 1966, Jean-Paul Riopelle m'avait présenté Zao Wou-Ki et sa femme May, que j'adorais. Très gentiment, ils m'ont prêté leur atelier pendant l'été, mais j'ai été absolument incapable d'y travailler : j'étais fasciné par un magnifique philodendron - rare à l'époque dans une maison - qui resplendissait sous la verrière, et qu'il m'était impossible de dessiner.
