Description
29 pp. 8vo (206 x 132 mm.), disbound, stitched as issued. Paris: Henry & Olivier, 1815. The scarce catalogue of an auction directed by Bon-Thomas Henry (1766-1836), first a painter, then a respected dealer and tasteful collector. The supposed consigner “La Baronne de V***ez,” was very probably fictitious. This sale, consisting mostly of Northern pictures, offered 76 lots of paintings and 11 lots of engraved stones. Henry has contributed informative descriptions for most of the pictures. Attributed here to P. de Hooch, lot 36, now at the Frick, is today credited to Hendrik van der Burgh. Nice copy, a little foxed. Stamp of the Bibliothèque Heim on upper wrapper. ❧ Lugt 8764. Oxford Art online (Henry)–“He studied under Charles Landon and Jean-Baptiste Regnault. In 1793 he began to deal in pictures and until 1812 spent part of his time travelling abroad (mainly in Italy) to increase his knowledge of art. In October 1816 he was appointed Commissaire-expert des Musées Royaux, a post he held until his death. Between 1810 and 1830 he assembled an eclectic collection, purchasing either privately or at sales, among them the posthumous sales (1826 and 1827) of Vivant Denon. His tastes in Italian art ranged from the work of Fra Angelico to that of the 17th-century Bolognese masters…In 1834 Henry offered a large part of his collection to the town of Cherbourg, and on 29 July 1835 a museum to house his works was opened on the second floor of the Hôtel de Ville; it was later named the Musée Thomas-Henry.”.

Description
Long Island City, N.Y.: Bomart Music Publications [PN bmp I/1], 1949. Folio. Stapled. Original publisher's light gray wrappers printed in blue. 1f. (blank), 2ff. (title, texts, notes), 23, [3] (blank) pp. Narrator's text in English with some German; preliminaries with full French and German text. Chorus in transliterated Hebrew. Series statement to lower wrapper: International Contemporary Series. From the collection of noted musicologist Stanely Boorman, with his signature to front flyleaf and occasional annotations in pencil. Wrappers lightly worn and browned; small price stamp to upper outer corner of upper. First Edition. Rufer (E), pp. 73-74. GA B/19, pp. 63-64. "The plot of the "Survivor from Warsaw," which Schönberg wrote himself, describes a scene, typical of national socialism's organized terror, of roll-call selection, where the human inventory was inspected, and those sentenced to death were pulled from the prisoners' ranks; in this way, it was possibly to portray the significant patterns of everyday life in the concentration camps. Schönberg's literary method of obscuring the Warsaw Ghetto - the symbolic location - by focusing on a locationally indefinite episode along the continuum of a larger historical process, entails that it remains factually undefined, as well. It is not, however, the authenticity of the details, but rather the interpretation thereof that is important for the reading and understanding of the terror of extermination as the signature of modern social history: "Now, what the text of the Survivor means to me: it means at first a warning to all Jews, never to forget what has been done to us, never to forget that even people who did not do it themselves, agreed with them and many of them found it necessary to treat us this way. We should never forget this, even such things have not been done in the manner in which I describe in the Survivor. This does not matter. The main thing is, that I saw it in my imagination." (Letter to Kurt List, November 1st, 1948)" Therese Muxeneder © Arnold Schönberg Center.
