‎à Paris: De l'imprimerie d' Antoine-Urbain Coustelier 1723. Fine. De l'imprimerie d' Antoine-Urbain Coustelier à Paris 1723 10 x 16 cm relié New edition in the collection of ancient poets published by Coustelier. The first edition of this work appeared in 1526. Contemporary full marbled and glazed calf binding. Raised band spine decorated. Red morocco title label. Head restored by an amateur. Some scuffing to boards. Trace of pale yellow dampstaining on the first two endpapers and the two following same at rear on 20 leaves. Under the general title of La légende de Pierre Faifeu the author recounts the adventures and misadventures ""faitz et dicts joyeux"" of one Pierre Faifeu alter ego of the author like him a native of Angers. The whole breathes drollery and satire and evokes Villon. Jean Molinet was a poet of the late 15th century from a generation preceding that of Bourdigné. He is better known for his prose adaptation of the Roman de la Rose. He is one of the major representatives of Burgundian literature of that time. His poetry seems quite light carried by numerous word games. De l'imprimerie d' Antoine-Urbain Coustelier hardcover‎

One of the first French fashion magazines published a few days before the famous Gazette fashionable and bringing together the greatest French artists of the Art Deco movement. The Journal ladies and modes is a trimensuelle illustrated French fashion magazine created in 1797. Its publication was stopped in 1839 before being taken in June 1912 under the leadership of Tommaso Antongini secretary friend and biographer of Gabriele 'Annunzio. It will disappear in August 1914 on the eve of the First World War. The review was drawn to 1279 copies making it for the time a relatively confidential publication. The 186 plates with great finesse are engraved on strong paper and colored stencil. They represent the majority of the time women but also men and children. The models are not unlike those of the Gazette fashionable whose publication will be launched a few months later those renowned couturiers but are the fruit of the imagination of the illustrators themselves.

Many of these illustrators will also be involved in The Gazette fashionable. Their work emblematic of the Art Deco movement emphasize the influence of Orientalism and costumes of the Ballets Russes while registering in the daily activities of affluent French of the time. From the preface of the first issue of 1912 Anatole France said: ""After seventy-five years he is reborn. He is reborn through the efforts of a few ingenious minds and artists. He is reborn for the curious if there is that do not simply modes newspaper fired several thousand and illustrated by photography. And if publishers make us very exactly in its format with its paper printing its processes of etching and coloring the old classic patterns of the past is that they intend to continue the pleasantly and become charming classic fashion of today and tomorrow.

‎Les loisirs d'un ministre ou essais dans le goût de ceux de Montagne composés en 1736‎

‎à Liège: Chez C. Plompteux 1787. Fine. Chez C. Plompteux à Liège 1787 13.50 x 21.30 cm 2 tomes en un volume relié First edition under this title the Essais dans le goût de Montaigne initially appeared in 1785 in Amsterdam but the edition was printed in only a small number of copies intended for family and friends. The manuscript was reviewed corrected and arranged for publication by the son of the Marquis d'Argenson the Marquis de Paulmy. Full brown granulated sheep binding. Smooth spine decorated with 4 urn tools fillets and roulettes. Triple fillet frame on covers. Red morocco title label. Very fine copy. This collection of reflections and thoughts on various subjects is in fact a composition by the Marquis de Paulmy his son based on the manuscripts of the memoirs which were not published until 1857. It is therefore more effectively the first book of the Memoirs of the Marquis d'Argenson to be published. One finds there a gallery of portraits of contemporary figures but also numerous historical considerations notably on Cardinal de Retz literary criticism in brief the work gives the impression of being a salon of former times where conversation always refined touches on different subjects. The Marquis d'Argenson frequented philosophers early on notably Voltaire he was preoccupied with political thoughts and he is held to be a precursor of economic liberalism and the physiocrats; although he was minister of foreign affairs and very versed in diplomacy his principal interest always focused on belles-lettres.

‎Paris: Lucien Vogel éditeur 1920. Fine. Lucien Vogel éditeur Paris 1920 18 x 24 cm une feuille original print in color printed on laid paper unsigned. Original content produced for the illustration of The Gazette fashionable one of the finest and most influential twentieth century fashion magazines celebrating the talent of creators and artists French burgeoning art deco. Famous fashion magazine founded in 1912 by Lucien Vogel The Gazette fashionable appeared until 1925 with an interruption during the War of 1915 to 1920 due to mobilization of its editor. She is 69 Deliveries from just 2000 copies and is illustrated including 573 color plates and 148 sketches depicting models of fashion designers. Upon publication these luxury publications ""are for bibliophiles and worldly aesthetes"" Françoise Tétart-Vittu ""good Gazette of tone"" in the fashion dictionary 2016. Printed on fine laid paper they use a typeface created specifically for the magazine by Georges Peignot the Cochin character taken in 1946 by Christian Dior. The prints are made with the technique of metal stencil enhanced color and some outlined in gold or palladium. The adventure began in 1912 when Lucien Vogel man of the world and fashion - it has already participated in Femina magazine - decided to found with his wife Cosette de Brunhoff John's sister the father of Babar Gazette good tone in which the subtitle is then ""Art fashions and frivolities."" Georges Charensol quotes the editor: ""In 1910 he observed there was no truly artistic fashion magazine and representative of the spirit of his time. So I thought of making a glossy magazine with truly modern artists . I was certain of success because no country for fashion can compete with France. """" A great art editor. Lucien Vogel ""in Literary News No. 133 May 1925. The success of the magazine is immediate not only in France but also the US and South America. Originally Vogel therefore brings together a group of seven artists: André-Édouard Marty and Pierre Brissaud followed by Georges Lepape and Dammicourt; and finally his friends from the School of Fine Arts as are George Barbier Bernard Boutet de Monvel or Charles Martin. Other talents come quickly reach the equipped Guy Arnoux Léon Bakst Benito Boutet de Monvel Umberto Brunelleschi Chas Laborde Jean-Gabriel Domergue Raoul Dufy Edward Halouze Alexander Iacovleff Jean Emile Laboureur Charles Loupot Charles Martin Maggie Salcedo. These artists mostly unknown when Lucien Vogel appealed to them will eventually become iconic figures and artistic sought. These are the same illustrators who make the drawings advertisements Gazette. The boards highlight the dresses and sublime seven artists of the time: Lanvin Doeuillet Paquin Poiret Worth Vionnet and Doucet. The designers provide for each number of exclusive models. Nevertheless some of Illustrations contained no real model but only the idea that the illustrator is done in the fashion of the day. Gazette fashionable is a milestone in the history of fashion. Combining the aesthetic requirement and plastic unit it brings together for the first time the great talents of the world of arts literature and fashion and imposed by this alchemy a new image of women slender independent and bold also driven by the new generation of designers Coco Chanel Jean Patou Rochas Marcel . Recovery in 1920 by Condé Montrose Nast Gazette fashionable modeled for the new composition and the aesthetic choices of the ""little dying newspaper"" that Nast had bought a few years ago: the Vogue magazine.
