Authorized Images Famous Authors Seen Through Antique and Vintage Postcards: Alexandre Dumas, père & Gustave Flaubert
The author of The Count of Monte Cristo and of The Three Musketeers has always been in print in both his native France and abroad, resulting in hundreds of unique postcards reflecting deep appreciation of his life and work were om sale in the early years of the 20th century. Flaubert, most known for his novel Madame Bovary, operated on a higher plane but still managed to attract a large following, perhaps partly because of the sexual and moral notoriety attached to his best-known work. Parisian printers honoured both with a myriad of handsome cards, a broad selection of which are presented in this volume, in the company of biographical prose and full captions.
