The 36 most beautiful lithographs of Paris with the Eiffel Tower in the spotlight by a major artist, Henri Rivière (1864-1951), who became the undisputed master of printmaking, the facilitator of Japonism in France.

As a prelude to the book to be published by Locus Solus of the complete lithographs of Henri Rivière (presented by the same two specialists), here is brought together the complete emblematic series: "The beautiful country of Brittany". With magical views of the coasts and the countryside. A short presentation precedes this mini art book to be offered as a A souvenir book from Brittany, with a charm accentuated by its finish on creative paper and its elegant and sober layout. This book-object celebrates Brittany and introduces the art of Rivière.

Henri Rivière (1864-1951) is one of the most popular artists, not necessarily by his name but by his Japanese-style prints. They have enjoyed extraordinary success since their creation at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. And while a few books have already mentioned them (most recently published: Catalogue de la BnF, 2016), nothing recent is available to date...

In 2021, we commemorate the 70th anniversary of the death of Henri Rivière.
