Catalog accompanying an exhibition of works by Eugene Printz, held at the Galerie Willy Huybrechts in Paris from September 11-October 11, 2007. 8vo (7.25” x 9.75”), Hardcover in printed dust jacket, 68 pages with 64 color illustrations. Introductory text in French by Florence Camard. A finely produced and unusually scarce catalog devoted to Eugène Printz (1889–1948), one of the preeminent French furniture designers and ébénistes of the Art Deco period. Extensively illustrates individual furniture and interiors, documenting Printz's distinctive synthesis of architectural form, exotic and richly figured woods, and sophisticated metalwork. An important specialist reference: the catalog has subsequently been cited in the literature for individual Printz works, including by Christie's. Huybrechts was an early advocate in the modern rediscovery and revaluation of Printz, giving the exhibition particular significance in the designer's recent reception history. Light bumping and rubbing to extremities and dj. Otherwise NF.
