This is a delightful collection of insightful character studies of prominent people from the world of turn-of-the-century Paris theater, politics and public life. Without resorting to outright ridicule or mockery, Cappiello captures with an exquisite sense of irony the facial features and traits that define personalities–so that whether or not we recognize the names, we are amused by the skill of the caricaturist. Some of the portraits amount to revelations–we can detect a certain pomposity in Puccini, for example, and a bit of shrewishness in Sarah Bernhardt. All told, the volume contains 64 pages of caricatures, printed by lithography and pochoir, published in an edition of 1,520 copies, of which this is #1432.
