WITH 23 OFTEN VERY PLEASING ENGRAVED TECHNOLOGICAL PLATES: eight in the first work two in the second seven in the third and six in the last. Brunet II 618-19. Minor worming on front board a hint of rubbing to joints and extremities but A VERY FINE AND TALL COPY especially bright clean and fresh inside and out. These works describe the arts of making wax producing vellum making pins and forging anchors. Wax it seems cannot just be left to bees--there are many steps in making the proper sort of wax for a given purpose be it ordinary candles large ceremonial candles torches for use as beacons or seals for letters or legal documents. The production of vellum or parchment is a malodorous and generally unpleasant process that changed little in the centuries before or after this was published. In the introduction to "The Art of the Pin-maker" editor Henri-Louis Duhamel du Monceau expresses wonder at the low cost of pins given the very complicated process required to produce them. He discusses how the various steps can be broken up into a "division of labor"--one of the earliest uses of this phrase that was to be so significant in subsequent works on economics. Despite being notably more cumbersome anchors seem to be easier to manufacture than pins. This is part of the "Description des Arts et M�tiers" a series of 75 treatises published in more than 100 parts that together formed the outstanding 18th century work on handicrafts. Issued over a period of almost three decades these works contain often splendid engravings of the industrial contexts of artisans making paper candles hats playing cards iron sugar wool and many other products. Published at roughly the same time as Diderot's great "L'Encyclop�die" these volumes are larger than those making up that better-known publication and the cuts here are even more striking that those in the Diderot which includes some plagiarized illustrations taken from the present series. This ambitious undertaking sponsored by the Acad�mie Royale des Sciences of Paris "constituted an effort to present a scientific picture of all the industrial processes employed in France in the 18th century. Since no corresponding survey was carried through in any other country at so early a date and since this one in France anticipated but briefly the industrial changes commonly associated with the phrase 'the industrial revolution' these volumes are worthy of particular notice. In a sense they portray the maxima of skills attained at the end of a social period the age of the handicraftsman." Cole and Watts Work on "Arts et M�tiers" was begun under the auspices of scientist Ren� Antoine Ferchault de R�aumur 1683-1757 and was brought to publication under the editorship of the multitalented French physician botanist and naval engineer Henri-Louis Duhamel du Monceau 1700-82 who also contributed a number of articles.
