Albert Marque, a Sculptor, a Doll, by F. Theimer, Ed. Polichinelle, 8 inches x 12 inches ( 21 cm x 30 cm ), hardcover book with 120 full color pages

This is a hardcover book with 120 color pages magnificently documented that presents
the work of the French artist Albert Marque (1872 - 1939), famous at the beginning of the century
for his representation of women and children.
In 1915, he worked in collaboration with Jeanne Margaine-Lacroix who asked him to create a doll
The realization of the head has been given to the manufacture de Sèvres who worked on the
sculptures from Albert Marque. The clothing was made by Margaine-Lacroix.
A very large variety of costumes was made, this giving the collection of very beautiful quality
presented at the Margaine-Lacroix gallery in 1915.
The success was immediate but brief at this time of war.
The signed dolls "A. Marque " made their return in the 70s
first, on auction sales in the U.S. and in France in the 80's.
These luxury dolls are now at significant amounts...
