Paul Eluard. Just a hint. Poem illustrated with drypoints by Guino. Highlighted by Iliazd. Paris, Degré Quarante et un, 1965. In-folio, in sheets, under quadruple filled cover, three of grey paper, one of parchment decorated, on the first plate, with a colour engraving, folder and publisher's case in unbleached canvas. Original edition: it is illustrated with 16 original drypoints in colours by the sculptor Michel Guino, including one on the cover. Unique edition at 72 copies: one of the 47 on imperial japanese (nº 65). "Éluard's text, Un soupçon, is not betrayed [...] by the movement of a typography which, around Guino's drypoints, modulates a euphoria as imponderable, as airy as the impression suggested by the leitmotiv: Se balançait légère//riait léger//sautait légère/// tombbait léger [...]" (François Chapon, Le Peintre et le Livre, p. 211). Perfectly preserved copy.
