HALÉVY, Ludovic.- La Famille Cardinal. Illustré d'un portrait de l'auteur et de trente-trois monotypes en noir et en couleurs par Edgar Degas. Avant-propos de Marcel Guérin. Paris, Auguste Blaizot & fils, 1939 (1938 au colophon). Gr. in-4°. Relié par E. Maylander : plein maroquin bleu foncé, plats sertis de multiples filets dorés gras ou maigres et d'un listel de maroq. saumon, dos à nerfs et caissons ornés comme les plats, doublures de soie parme serties de cadres de maroq. bleu foncé ornés de filets dorés pleins ou pointillés, doublures de même soie, tranches dorées sur témoins, couv. et dos cons. Sous étui.
34 compositions en noir : portrait de l'auteur en noir en frontispice, 31 hors-texte dont 6 avec des couleurs lég. plus prononcées, 1 bandeau et 1 cul-de-lampe. En vue d'illustrer l'ouvrage, Degas montra ces monotypes à son ami Halévy mais ce dernier ne montra aucun enthousiasme. L'artiste rangea ses gravures qui furent mises en vente en 1928 et acquises par un groupe de bibliophiles qui céda le droit de reproduction à Blaizot. Le monotype étant un type de gravure tirée à une seule épreuve, c'est Potin qui fut chargé de reproduire au plus près les originaux.
Tirage limité à 350 ex. sur vélin de rives filigrané au nom de l'éditeur, un des 325 mis dans le commerce (n° 300).
