June 2021
... and I am delighted that I have had today contact
with Mrs. Simona d'Achille who was so kind to confirm to
me that indeed her late father the acclaimed Italian
Artist GINO D'ACHILLE had illustrated three of the
'Catherine' Pan books we see here below. They are:
ONE LOVE IS ENOUGH -
CATHERINE - CATHERINE A TIME FOR LOVE
|
|
Simona d'Achille has confinded
in me that her father had at times asked her
mother and his
children to pose for a painting. In this particular case
it was for Catherine and a time for love. For this
reason the fifth of the Catherine Pan books cover is her favourite and close to her heart. I admit that I am now
looking at that particular cover with a tender smile. It
is now his daughter who manages his Archive and Studio
Editions.

I am really excited to announce that I finally know the
name of the Artists for six of the Pan books covers for
the CATHERINE series. It was the very talented
Hans Heinrich Helweg from Denmark and the acclaimed
Artist Gino
d'Achille from Italy. A big thank
you to Tim from www.tikit.net for this splendid news.
Both Hans Helweg
and Gino d'Achille were great Artists, I invite you to click on the links

Bizarreness !
While searching for something specific, I stumbled over
something bizarre concerning the Catherine covers...
what you see here is on the left side the original
Canadian cover for ONE LOVE IS ENOUGH from 1966 ! On the
right side you see exactly the same Lady (watch closely
the background...!) but the book is called :
« The Lady of Monkton
» by Elisabeth Byrd
! Oh and her dress is now grass-green...!
The website www.tikit.net
of Tim Kitchen, where I found the cover, is speculating which cover
came first ! The answer is 99% the Catherine book ONE
LOVE IS ENOUGH !
The Lady of Monkton was published in Hardcover 1975
- (if we can trust Amazon !) On
« Goodreads
» we read that the
paperback came out in 1981!
I admit I am really baffled that a publisher like
Pan books would have done such a cheat to
save money... |
1963 -
translated article from French by Linda, webmaster
Photo showing
Juliette Benzoni dedicating the first
time her Catherine book IL SUFFIT D'UN AMOUR /ONE LOVE
IS ENOUGH at Editions Trévise in Paris 1963.
We learn that England was also one of those 9 - 10
countries who bought the rights of the Book before
CATHERINE was even available in the Bookstores. |

On the painting above we see how Juliette imagined her
heroine.

In Heinemann
Ltd. original Hardcovers (and a few othter
countries) we see these two beautiful
photos of Juliette Benzoni. The one on the left was
taken by the acclaimed late writer photographer Jerry
Bauer (
1934 -
2010
)
The photo on the right was taken by another world
famous photographer Sam Lévin (1904 - 1988).
The Lévin
photo was Juliette's official Autograph card.
Sometimes we can buy them on Ebay nowadays... |
