Vienna, Privatdruck der Gesellschaft österreichischer Bibliophilen [CW Stern], 1908.

On the first cover of the portfolio, a label printed in black. In 1903, this Brazilian-born illustrator executed a series of 132 remarkable illustrations for H. G. Wells' War of the Worlds, for which he personally requested permission. Following the author's approval in 1905, his work was published in a deluxe edition of 500 copies in 1906 by L. Vandamme & Cie. And, as is often the case, for his own pleasure and for food reasons, he executed a few series of erotic illustrations under the pseudonym of Henri Lemort. Bilder-Lexikon IV, 387-390. 2006. Gérard Nordmann Erotic Library - Part 2, lot 144.
