Scope and Contents

In Lemaitre's essay, he mentions that that only 200 bound copies of Les Journaux Des Dieux were delivered for distribution because there were insufficent funds to pay him - "which of course makes the saved volumes extremely valuable." The books as well as prints and printed plates depicted in this exhibition consisted of 'Les Journal des Dieux' [The God's Diaries], 'Initiation a la haute volupte' [Initiation to High Voluptuousness], and 'Jonas.' -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
