Louis Marcoussis...illustrations for Guillaume Apollinaire's Alcohol... 1913
The Betrothal, etching, plate 29 from Alcools1934
“And the solitary cord of sea lutes.”
Singer, plate eight from Alcools1934
Moonlight, plate 30 from Alcools1934
Mellifluent moon on the lips of the maddened
The orchards and towns are greedy tonight
The stars appear like the image of bees
Of this luminous honey that offends the vines
For now all sweet in their fall from the sky
Each ray of moonlight’s a ray of honey
Now hid I conceive the sweetest adventure
I fear stings of fire from this Polar bee
that sets these deceptive rays in my hands
And takes its moon-honey to the rose of the winds
Lul of Faltenin, plate eighteen from Alcools1934
Rosemonde, plate 21 from Alcools1934
I named her Rosemonde
Lest I forget
Mouth flowered in Holland
Then slowly I took my way
Seeking the rose of the world
