Tsuguharu Foujita
This led to the breakthrough in Chimot's career by which he became artistic director of Les Éditions d’Art Devambez. Between 1923 and 1931, from his atelier in the rue Ampère, he oversaw the production of a wonderful array of books illustrated by such artists as Pierre Brissaud, Edgar Chahine, Alméry Lobel-Riche, and Tsuguharu Foujita. He reserved some choice texts for himself, including "Les Chansons de Bilitis" by Pierre Louÿs (1925), "Les Belles de nuit" by Magre (1927), and "Parallèlement" by Paul Verlaine (1931).
