Collection du B.L.S.
Specialized French publishing series, likely bibliophilic in nature.
Short Biography
The 'Collection du B.L.S.' refers to a specific French publishing series, possibly the 'Collection du Bibliophile Louis Soly' or another specialized bibliophilic collection. Such series were common in the 20th century, where a publisher or a society would issue books in a uniform, high-quality design. These collections often focused on reissuing classic texts or publishing contemporary authors in deluxe editions, intended for a select audience of collectors.
Connection to the Book World
The contribution of such a collection to the illustrated book would be the production of 'livres d'artiste' or 'livres de peintre'. These books were typically printed on luxury paper (like 'vélin d'Arches' or 'Japon') in a limited edition, and featured original graphics (etchings, lithographs, woodcuts) created specifically for the edition by an artist.
