Designed by Crosby/Fletcher/Forbes/Gill and printed by the Kynoch press in Birmingham England in 1965 this black cloth portfolio has both color and black and white illustrations and photographs including some larger fold-out displays.French artist Philippe Noyer (1917-1985) was born in Lyon. After a traditional course of study at the elite Ecole des Roches, Noyer enrolled in the Beaux Arts School of Lyon, before going to Paris to study at the Paul Colin School of Art & experience the whirlwinds of Surrealism first hand on Paris' Left Bank. Philippe Noyer started his painting career in 1943. That same year he met the famous Paris art dealer, Emmanuel David, who promoted world-known 'School of Paris' painters from 1943-1950. David immediately put Noyer on contract with the prestigious Drouant-David Gallery of Paris. Philippe Noyer soon became one of the most sought after portraitist of Paris & London high society. As his art matured, however, he put aside this career as a portraitist to devote himself entirely to the delicate, sophisticated, slim, long-limbed ladies who had progressively replaced children as his favorite subjects.MEASUREMENTSAlbum is quite large… measuring 12" wide by 19.5" tall There’s only a couple other copies of this rare work currently available and they’re listed at $250 and $295! I’ve heavily undercut both for the sake of a quicker sale. There is some light paint loss on the block cover boards. Very minor. the Artwork within was well protected by the Hard board covers. Please see all photos and feel free to reach out with any questions
