    Albert Marque, a Sculptor, a Doll, by F. Theimer
    Albert Marque, a Sculptor, a Doll, by F. Theimer
    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 of 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...
