DESCRIPTION DE L'EGYPTE. Antinoë. Élévation et détails de la colonne d'Alexandre Sévère détails d'architecture de divers monuments plan et coupe de l'hippodrome plan d'une partie de la rue principale. ANTIQUITES volume IV planche 60
Paris: Imprimerie Impériale 1809. Fine. Imprimerie Impériale Paris 1809-1829 70 x 51.50 cm une feuille Original unshaved full-page etching from the Imperial edition of the Description de l'Égypte or Recueil des observations et recherches faites en Égypte pendant l'expédition française publié par les ordres de Sa Majesté l'Empereur Napoléon le Grand A Collection of the observations and research carried out in Egypt during the French expedition published on the orders of his Majesty the Emperor Napoleon the Great'.Produced between February 1802 and 1830 on the orders of Naopleon Bonaparte and published between 1809 and 1828 1000 copies were printed and distributed to institutions on vergé paper with an 'Égypte ancienne et moderne' watermark visible when held up to the light. Light marginal spotting not touching image otherwise in very fresh fine condition. An engraving from the Description de l'Egypte one of the masterpieces of French printing and the birth of a new field: Egyptology. A gigantic survey of Egypt at the time of Bonaparte's conquests in 1798 and 1799 the work is divided into 13 volumes of engravings making up 892 plates of which 72 colored as well as presenting the splendors of the Egypt of the Pharaohs in 9 volumes. The other volumes discuss natural history and present a fascinating portrait of Coptic and Islamic Egypt as it was seen by Bonaparte's Eastern Armies. The Egyptian campaign' militarily a disaster demonstrates through the engravings of the Description d'Egypte the scientific success it nonetheless became thanks to the 167 expert members of the Commission of the Sciences and Arts of the Institut d'Egypte Egyptian Institute who followed Napoleon's army. The Institut gathered together in Egypt the mathematician Monge the chemist Berthollet the naturalist Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire as well as numerous artists engineers architects and doctors. They were tasked with re-discovering modern and ancient Egypt and displaying its natural treasures as well as the know-how of its inhabitants.This edition the so-called Imperial edition of the plates for the Description de l'Egypte was printed in four large formats two of which were specially created for it and christened Moyen-Egypte and Grand-Egypte. A special press was built to print it the process extending over 20 years from 1809 to 1829. The Imperial edition proved so popular that a second edition this time in black and white and without the Egypte ancienne et moderne watermark known as the Royal Edition was published during the Restoration by the printing house of C.-L.-F. Panckoucke Paris.The engravings of the Description d'Egypte owe a great deal to Baron Dominique-Vivant Denon illustrator diplomat collector and later Director of the Musée Napoléon the Louvre. His exploration of the South of Egypt gave Bonaparte the idea of sending the experts of the Institut there thus creating a faithful and complete portrait of the area. This was the research gathered together from 1802 in the mammoth Description de L'Egypte.Denon embarked on this story of archeological exploration at the age of 51 reaching first Alexandria and then Cairo before exploring Upper Egypt. Along with the members of the Institut d'Egypte the Natural History Museum's painter H.J. Redouté brother of Pierre-Joseph Redouté author of Roses the mineralogist Dolomiue and the draughtsman Joly Denon then explored the Nile Delta and Lower Egypt. When however he joined the 21st Light Infantry Regiment as it marched across Upper Egypt in pursuit of the retreating Mameluks in November 1798 he found himself the only civilian. In the very midst of the battle itself he reeled off sketches of the works of art that peppered his path right up to the threshold of the Sudan. He said that he had crossed a country that is apart from its name entirely unknown to Europeans and therefore everything was worth describing Voyages dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte pendant les campagnes Imprimerie Impériale unknown

Louis-Francois FAUR - Benjamin de LABORDE

à Paris: Chez Buisson 1791. Fine. Chez Buisson à Paris 1791 12 x 20.50 cm trois volumes reliés First edition written according to Barbier Dictionnaire des ouvrages anonymes by Faur and according to the BN de France by Faur or Benjamin de Laborde. Contemporary half blonde sheep bindings. Smooth spine with fillets. Marbled paper boards. Title and volume labels gilt. Stains on spines. The preface of the work indicates that the Memoirs of Richelieu are less a single biography of Richelieu than memoirs covering the end of the reign of Louis XIV the Regency and the reign of Louis XV. The present work claims to remedy these memoirs and present the marshal as he truly was ""it is the hero in undress that we present to the public"". As the title indicates besides his historical role the book reveals the relationships that Richelieu maintained with women ""all women disputed over his heart. Loving them all he claimed to owe them equal homage."" The work contains a great number of original letters and private memoirs written by Richelieu or addressed to Richelieu. A new type of historical work that would have a great future the book through various perspectives attempts to paint clearly the man that Richelieu was with his virtues and his vices. Stamp of Grande bibliothèque école libre N.D. de Mont-Roland on the half-title. Chez Buisson hardcover

Las tarascas de Madrid y tribunal espantoso. Passos del hombre perdido y relacion del espiritu malo
en Valencia: Por Francisco Antonio de Burgos 1694. Fine. Por Francisco Antonio de Burgos en Valencia 1694 10.50 x 16.30 cm relié New edition after the first edition of 1665. Rare. Contemporary full vellum binding. Smooth spine with handwritten title. Scattered foxing. Prolific Spanish writer Francisco Santos 1618-1696 who was a soldier by profession is famous for his picaresque novels and short stories from which Lesage drew abundantly for Gil Blas and his Diable boiteux. He defends the poor against the rich and the humble against the wealthy a typical attitude of the picaresque novel and reflection of Madrilenian and Spanish society. Most of Santos's works are full of Christian and Catholic morals and this spirit led to this work which departs from the strict domain of literature where the author becomes the champion of defending Christian and Catholic doctrine. One finds therein very interesting details about witches and the customs of Madrid. Por Francisco Antonio de Burgos hardcover

A gigantic survey of Egypt at the time of Bonaparte's conquests in 1798 and 1799 the work is divided into 13 volumes of engravings making up 892 plates of which 72 colored as well as presenting the splendors of the Egypt of the Pharaohs in 9 volumes. The other volumes discuss natural history and present a fascinating portrait of Coptic and Islamic Egypt as it was seen by Bonaparte's Eastern Armies. The Egyptian campaign' militarily a disaster demonstrates through the engravings of the Description d'Egypte the scientific success it nonetheless became thanks to the 167 expert members of the Commission of the Sciences and Arts of the Institut d'Egypte Egyptian Institute who followed Napoleon's army. The Institut gathered together in Egypt the mathematician Monge the chemist Berthollet the naturalist Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire as well as numerous artists engineers architects and doctors. They were tasked with re-discovering modern and ancient Egypt and displaying its natural treasures as well as the know-how of its inhabitants.This edition the so-called Imperial edition of the plates for the Description de l'Egypte was printed in four large formats two of which were specially created for it and christened Moyen-Egypte and Grand-Egypte. A special press was built to print it the process extending over 20 years from 1809 to 1829. The Imperial edition proved so popular that a second edition this time in black and white and without the Egypte ancienne et moderne watermark known as the Royal Edition was published during the Restoration by the printing house of C.-L.-F. Panckoucke Paris.The engravings of the Description d'Egypte owe a great deal to Baron Dominique-Vivant Denon illustrator diplomat collector and later Director of the Musée Napoléon the Louvre. His exploration of the South of Egypt gave Bonaparte the idea of sending the experts of the Institut there thus creating a faithful and complete portrait of the area. This was the research gathered together from 1802 in the mammoth Description de L'Egypte.Denon embarked on this story of archeological exploration at the age of 51 reaching first Alexandria and then Cairo before exploring Upper Egypt. Along with the members of the Institut d'Egypte the Natural History Museum's painter H.J. Redouté brother of Pierre-Joseph Redouté author of Roses the mineralogist Dolomiue and the draughtsman Joly Denon then explored the Nile Delta and Lower Egypt. When however he joined the 21st Light Infantry Regiment as it marched across Upper Egypt in pursuit of the retreating Mameluks in November 1798 he found himself the only civilian. In the very midst of the battle itself he reeled off sketches of the works of art that peppered his path right up to the threshold of the Sudan. He said that he had crossed a country that is apart from its name entirely unknown to Europeans and therefore everything was worth describing Voyages dans la Basse et la Haute Egypte pendant les campagnes Imprimerie Impériale unknown
