JENNIFER JONES in MADAME BOVARY (1949)

Emma feeds on mediocre books, and therefore her dissatisfactions are never truly tragic, just grotesque. She is not to be pitied but derided. She is worthy of condemantion for her vulgar nature, for her cold and self-centered pursuit of a kind of pleasure that not even she understands, for her stupid attachment to the most inane of literary myths, for her dime-store sentimentalism. Few readers take time to look more closely at Emma and at how her author judges her, how many indignities he heaps upon her — so many that she is left without a single good quality, not one. - Dacia Maraini, Searching for Emma

#madame bovary #jennifer jones #the silver screen #* #god i just love it when people GET THINGS #i will forever love madame bovary because it's the most perfectly written book i know #but it's truly astounding how many people think emma is some kind of icon #she's dumb! she's trashy and vulgar af! flaubert is making fun of her! #girlbloggers: i can't read suddenly i don't know /mariah voice

But her life was as cold as an attic facing north; and boredom, like a silent spider, was weaving its web in the shadows, in every corner of her heart.

Gustave Flaubert, from Madame Bovary

“Haven't you ever happened to come across in a book some vague notion that you've had, some obscure idea that returns from afar and that seems to express completely your most subtle feelings?” ― Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary.

Wood Engraving Wednesday

THÉO SCHMIED

The French painter and illustrator Pierre Brissaud (1885-1964) was commissioned to produce watercolor illustrations for the 1950 Limited Edition Club (LEC) production of Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary. The watercolors were turned over to the workshop of master French wood engraver Théo Schmied (1900-1985) to be reproduced for the edition as these remarkable, multi-block color wood engravings.

Schmied's Swiss-born father François-Louis Schmied (1873-1941), also a wood engraver and formally trained in the book arts, established his Paris workshop in 1910 to produce deluxe, illustrated limited editions. Théo Schmied took over the management of his father's workshop beginning in 1924 and inherited the business after his father's death.

This edition was designed by Francis Meynell of the Nonesuch Press in London, with the text composed in Monotype Ehrhardt at the Curwen Press under the supervision of Ernest Ingham and printed letterpress at the Marchbanks Press in New York on specially-made paper bearing the title of the book as watermark by the Curtis Paper Company of Newark, Delaware. The edition is limited to 1500 copies signed by Pierre Brissaud.

… for her, life was as cold as an attic with a window looking to the north, and ennui, like a spider, was silently spinning its shadowy web in every cranny of her heart.

- Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary
