Condizione: Very Good Plus. Alistair [Hans Henning Otto Harry Baron von Voigt] (illustratore). Limitation of 1,000 copies -- the colophon informs us that the stones upon which the plates were printed were destroyed by the German invasion of Belgium during the early phase of the First World War. 4to. 30.5 by 23.5 cm. 36 pp. 12 illustrated, two toned plates, with Alastair illustrations. 10 of these are referenced in the List of Illustrations, and the other two are at the beginning and the end. These two are also on a folded sheet that is about 2 cm shorter, as well as about the same shy of the width of facing pages elsewhere. Alastair (1887-1969) was a German-born self-taught artist whose style was obviously greatly influenced by Beardsley, and he emulated Beardsley, too, in illustrating works of Oscar Wilde, who was the perfect template for Alastair's imagination, which gloried in decadence, as Wilde did decades earlier. This work, "The Sphinx", was Alastair's first published work based on Wilde's writing, and it is the work that exposed a far larger audience to his distinctive, highly stylized, artwork. The cloth cover, designed by Charles Ricketts, has a light film of dusty soiling, which is removable with effort, and a scattering of other small light stains, which are not susceptible to the simple eraser. The interior is generally quite clean and lovely. The hinge is cracked in one place. Decorated Cloth (Gilt impressed) Limited Edition, First Edition Thus (with Alastair illustrations).

Ohne Ort und Jahr [München, ca. 1968], Fol. 1 Seite. Bütten. An den Kunsthistoriker und Museumsdirektor Eberhard Hanfstaengl (1886-1973) in München: "Hoffentlich hat der Grippezustand Sie ganz verlassen und mit einem Geschenk (denn alle Krankheit bringt ein Geschenk - wenn man es ihr abzunehmen weiss -). Ihre Besuche sind eine grosse Freude und Stärkung in einer Krisis - die eine mörderische ist. Und zu Ihnen kann ich reden. Ich selbst bin ratlos. Wenn ich auch aus dem Glauben lebe. All dies geht im Grunde über Persönliches hinaus [.] Ein Schmetterling aus dem Garten der grossen Katzen ist der Begleiter [.]" - Alastair führte in den 10 Jahren vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg ein umtriebiges, unstetes Künstlerleben als Tänzer, Pianist, Zeichner und Illustrator in halb Europa. Sein Aufstieg in der Öffentlichkeit des deutschen und englischen Kunstbetriebes ab 1910 war fulminant, unterstützt von seinem Freund Hans Hasso von Veltheim. Bei seinem Aufenthalt in Paris führte ihn Gabriele D'Annunzio in die Pariser Gesellschaft ein. Später arbeitete er für den Beardsley-Verleger John Lane und illustrierte Oscar Wilde.
