[ROJANKOVSKI, Fyodor, known as ROJAN, attributed to]. [Large Pornographic Drawings]. No place, no publisher, (ca. 1930–1940). Folio. Loose sheets, in a black paper folder illustrated with negative fascini motifs (folder spine broken). A collection of 12 large-scale pornographic drawings in color with a handwritten title in pencil, mounted on folio-sized sheets, 4 of which are on black Canson paper with photomontage. Unidentified ex libris, but it may be in the artist’s hand (two dogs or a pig side by side, their intertwined tails forming the monogram “R G.”) Highly transgressive. View in person at the studio. Provenance: from the library of Pierre Séjourné. Pierre Séjourné (1930–1993), a Parisian bookseller and lover of bookbinding, a flutist, and an enthusiast of literature and classical music, frequented both the Parisian artistic and literary circles and the world of the Arts Décoratifs and its schools through his uncle, the architect and academician Albert Laprade. Also an author and actor, he devoted himself to writing and performing his own plays, which were staged primarily in the Paris region.
