LYDIS, Mariette. ~ (Bookplate design). [Paris, 1925].
Original pencil and ink drawing (c. 80 × 60 mm, sheet size 122 × 132 mm), dated in pencil by the artist ‘1925’.
One of several designs created by the artist for her own ex libris, this one with a three-barred cross resembling the Maronite cross and the artist’s initials in an omega shaped cartouche at the foot. She gives her full name on a scroll at the foot. We have hitherto found no record of Mariette Lydis’ bookplate, nor indeed of books belonging to her, either with or without bookplates.
