Parallèlement https://collections.artsmia.org/art/66008/
Book illustrated with lithographs in rose ink and wood engravings. Custom-designed binding: red, white and green leather cover with design of circles, highlighted with gold; poems and illustrations in pink (mostly female figures) Widely regarded as the first modern artist's book, Parallèlement set the standard for every artist's book that followed. Even today, Pierre Bonnard's sprawling illustrations interpret Paul Verlaine's sensual poetry with unusual insight. Bonnard's model for these rosy-pink lithographs was his longtime lover Marthe de Méligny (born Maria Boursin), whose languorous poses are interwoven with blocks of text with unprecendented freedom and expressiveness.
