PRESENTATION COPY TO ARTIST MARIA IZQUIERDO. NERUDA, PABLO. 1904-1973. Canto General. [Mexico City: Printed by Talleres Gráficos de la Nación, 1950]. 4to (350 x 237 mm). Printed in red and black, subscriber's list in rear, pictorial endpapers designed by Diego Rivera and David Siqueiros. Bound to style in green leather, gilt motif of a fish with 'Neruda' printed in gilt around it on front cover. Printed endpapers split down middle along hinges, small tear to bottom of front endpaper and top of back endpaper, first few leaves including limitation page separating, wear to page edges. FIRST EDITION, NUMBER B-47 OF ONLY 50 COPIES ON 'CHATEAU' PAPER (FROM AN TOTAL OF 600) COPIES), THIS ONE INSCRIBED BY NERUDA on limitation page in Spanish: 'A Maria Izquierdo y Raul [Iribe] con carino fraternel, Pablo Neruda Vo.Bo,' and signed by David Siqueiros, but not by Rivera. Maria Izquierdo was a protege of Diego Rivera and Rufino Tamayo, and the first Mexican woman to have a solo show in the United States in 1930. During the 1930s and 1940s she was among the top tier of Mexican painters. In 1945, on the heels of a successful show in Chile and a tribute from her friend Neruda, she was granted a mural commission from the Mexican government. In a cruel twist, her former mentor Rivera and Siquieros were the head of a panel that stopped the commission, on the grounds that she was too inexperienced. She responded with her now famous quip: 'It is a crime to be born a woman and have talent.' Around this time she married the painter-diplomat Raul Uribe, and she also had her first stroke, initiating the decline of her health. In 1949, she painted her 'Tribute to Pablo Neruda,' one of her final paintings. She died of a second stroke in 1955. Denied due recognition during her lifetime, beginning in the 1990s her career underwent a reevaluation and in 2002 she was declared a 'Monumento Artistico de la Nación' by Mexico City's National Commission for Arts and Culture, ensuring that her work and legacy would be protected, catalogued, studied, and conserved. The timing of the present inscription, after she had suffered greatly at the hands of her former patron/teacher Rivera and Siquieros, who both contributed to this work, makes this a poignant presentation to one of Mexico's most important artists. The smaller edition of 50 copies was not always signed, so it may be meaningful that Siquieros did sign this copy at his attribution, adding somewhat hesitantly beneath 'Feliz,' as if he was beginning a longer thought. An important association on one of Neruda's most important works. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
