‎Mosaïque Mosaics‎

‎1771. Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. Plates vol. 8 Paris 1771 Folio 253 x 393mm. 14 pages of descriptive text & 5 loose plates with their accompanying text sheet from the volume of plates. Slight browning to margins a little spotting otherwise very good. The 5 plates and descriptive text for the entry of Mosaïque from volume VIII of plates. Plates are numbered 1-5. Plate 4 is a double plate. 1 page 659 from volume VIII of the Encyclopédie 1765 including Les Romains 11 pages 78 79 & 741-750 from volume X of the Encyclopédie 1765 including information on Compartimens de pavés en marbre and Mosaïque en général 1 page 193 from volume XII of the Encyclopédie 1765 including L'usage des pavés en mosaïque à Rome 1 page 353 from volume III of the Supplément à l'Encyclopédie 1777 which includes Mosaïque de Herculanum With some browning to a few leaves. Included with these plates are several relevant entries on Mosaics including the main ten-page article by Chevalier Louis de Jaucourt. The article primarily concerns the role of mosaics in Christendom philosophy and also their manufacture. Despite focusing largely on the sciences Jaucourt has been regarded as an important philosopher as well. The article for mosaics is therefore a good example of this polymath's varied interests and specialities. The five plates largely concern the workmanship of this art and the atelier itself. Eight mosaic patterns are also reproduced including Europe Raised by Jupiter Neptune and his Trident and a Barge on the Nile. There is one double plate depicting the Nile Mosaic of Palestrina with various useful annotations. Thought to be the earliest Roman depiction of Nilotic scenes close examination suggests that it was produced in the reign of Sulla ca. 100 B.C. It is important for a number of reasons and could possibly be one of the mosaics referred to by Pliny in his Naturalis Historiæ. Having remained in the Barberini family since the 17th-century the mosaic can now be found in the Museo Nazionale Prenestino. unknown‎

‎1772. Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. Plates vol. 10 Paris 1772 Folio 253 x 393mm. 7 pages of descriptive text & 49 loose plates with their accompanying 4 text sheets from the volume of plates. Slight browning to margins a little spotting otherwise very good. The 49 plates and descriptive text for the entry of Machines De Théâtres from volume X of plates. The first set of plates contains twenty-seven numbered plates with 14 double sheets paltes 1-6 11-16 18 & 26 alongside 4 triple sheets 7 8 9 & 10. The second set of plates contains twenty-two numbered plates and all of these are double sheets. Plate 22 is damaged with edges and caption frayed. 2 pages 132 & 184 from volume III of the Encyclopédie 1753 including La machine par laquelle toute la décoration change dans le même moment and Char 2 pages 443 & 583 from volume VI of the Encyclopédie 1756 including information on Faux-chassis and Les machines qui pendant le cours des fêtes de la cour 1 page 800 from volume IX of the Encyclopédie 1765 including Les anciens 1 page 239 from volume XII of the Encyclopédie 1765 including La machine appellée pegma 1 page 413 from volume XVI of the Encyclopédie 1765 including La machine pour le tonnerre With some browning to a few leaves. Included in the selected articles which accompany this suite of plates is the main entry for Machines de Théâtres by Abbé Edme-François Mallet. Although he wrote around a thousand of the articles these are most often on subjects regarding philosophy history or literature. He was a useful guide for the Encyclopédists as to what religious ideas and statements would be allowed but here we see the scholar out of his usual constrained context describing theatrical devices and using his extensive knowledge of literature. He gives a succinct yet informative overview of the devices and their history as a whole. The plates provide an invaluable guide to the backstage of the theatre in the 18th-century. Many plates are very factual but were original and ahead of their time. With some measured drawing the illustrations describe the creation of a ship in a stormy sea and the raising and lifting of objects from the floor among other devices. Several of the later plates show the machines and rigging used and then elegantly illustrate the desired effect as seen on stage. A number of plates depict in vivid detail mechanisms for representing waterfalls and other natural phenomena indicative of the range of invention of the French 18th-century set designer. Other contraptions include sophisticated and avant-garde mechanical devices such as false-floors the creation of volcanic eruptions and the destruction of buildings by fire. The Opéra de Paris and the Palais Royal are used as particular examples of this great and refined period of theatre design. The plates were each drawn and described by Rodel a Pensioner of the King and a chartered architect under the direction of Giraud who served as the mastermind behind several large festivals and worked as a stage-setter at the above mentioned Opéra de Paris. unknown‎

Contributed by François-Nicolas Martinet 1731-1800 famous for his ornithological engravings these plates display many noted mammals reptiles and amphibians. Martinet was well regarded because of his ability to depict the creatures realistically and many of his subjects are now scarce or endangered. Perhaps his most famous illustrations were those for Mathurin Jacques Brisson's Ornithologia sive Synopsis Methodica 1760-63. These visually compelling plates show creatures of all sorts from elephants to capybara and apes sloths and monkeys to cabasssou armadillos surinam toads and chameleons. Martinet's illustrations are detailed and informative although in places are charmingly naïve. Several relevant text entries follow and these include Animal by Diderot and Louis-Jean-Marie Daubenton a French naturalist of note. Futher articles were contributed by Pierre Tarin Paul Jacques Malouin and Baron de Haller. unknown‎

A selection of relevant text entries are included with these plates. Of particular note are those on Antiquité by Edme Mallet Antiquité en architecture by Jacques-François Blondel and two articles on Antique one by Marc-Antoine Eidous. Although an abbot and primarily concerned with theology Mallet also wrote on history and literature. Having studied at the Barnabites College of Montargis Mallet became a key figure in the success of the Encyclopédie. Dying before the project was completed Mallet still managed to produce over a thousand articles. Although his views are often criticised as restricted and narrow-minded he acted as a safeguard for the project which could have been suspended if the religious articles had proved too controversial. His article on antiquities is a general overview whereas Blondel's contribution focuses on architecture. After studying with Gilles-Marie Oppenord Blondel earned a living as an engraver and writer. He became a well-regarded architect also publishing many of his lectures and contributing to major works such as Augustin-Charles d'Aviler's Cours d'Architecture 1737. Founder of the École des Arts he inspired many young architects such as his fellow encyclopédist Lucotte. Praised for his Traité de la Décoration des Edifices he was also an accomplished engraver of plates. He had already produced his own encyclopedia of architecture so was well-accustomed to the practises of the encyclopedist. With numerous creative abilities as displayed in his work at the Metz Cathedral he wrote nearly five hundred articles for the Encyclopédie. Marc-Antoine Eidous was a French writer and translator born in Marseilles. Despite his relatively basic education he was a tireless writer and translator focusing mainly on philosophy travel and agriculture. After serving as an engineer in the Spanish army he devoted much of his time to literature. Best known for his work on heraldry he contributed around 450 articles. His writing has been criticised for a lack of elegance but he gives a very clear summary of the antiquities in this entry. The plates include Greek and Roman architecture Judaic antiquities armour clothing furniture and many other subjects. Of particular note are the plates showing the Pantheon the Colosseum as it would have been when built and as a ruin the Arch of Constantine the Circus of Maxentius known as the Cirque de Caracalla until the 19th-century the forum in ruins Trajan's column before the bronze figure of St. Peter was added in 1587 and St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. Also displayed are some items of jewellery and ceremonial dress alongside other ornaments. There are over twice as many plates in the supplement. The suite begins with a double plate of Noah's Ark and covers the Tower of Babel the Pyramids and the Sphinx at Giza. Further plates are plans and reconstructions of Palmyra Baalbeck and Athens before the extensive 19th-century excavations. These are followed by depictions of the Apotheosis of Homer by Archelaus of Priene Achilles's shield the Roman Cussy-la-Colonne and many types of decorated chairs and lamps. Indeed two pages are dedicated solely to different types of sandal. With large and attractive illustrations such as that of the catacombs in Naples these plates of classical antiquity are particularly pleasing. hardcover‎

With nineteen text sheets all the plates from the main volumes are described in great depth. A complete guide to architecture in particular that contemporary to the Encyclopédie these plates are also very attractive. The five orders are examined and displayed in detail with some measured drawing as well. Many examples of 18th-century architecture then follow. Foremost amongst these are the plans by Blondel also a key encyclopédist for his Fontaine de la rue de Grenelle plans for the Colonnade of the Louvre a project for the Abbaye Royale de Panthemont by François Franque for the church of the Panthemont and the Town Hall of Rouen designed by Le Carpentier. Other plans include private houses and further Blondel work alongside designs for the interiors of new rooms at the Palais Royale. A display of some of the most important building work at the time this large suite of plates is also of interest as a historical record of buildings and interiors now lost or altered. There are also many plates from the supplement which again cover a variety of topics. Starting with further plates on the five orders more measured drawing is included as well. A large section of this supplementary suite is devoted to the Bagne de Brest where Eugène François Vidocq was famously held. With designs by Raphael and Carac magnificent plans by Charles De Wailly are also displayed. The penultimate set in this suite contains nine theatre designs with both interior and exterior views. The suite then closes with a final plate concerning Architecture Navale and tools used in the art. The main article for Architecture by Jaques-François Blondel is included with these plates alongside many other relevant entries. A good introduction to the plates it is testament to Blondel's understanding and knowledge of architecture. Professor at his own École des arts Blondel had already written extensively on architecture with his Traité de la Décoration des Edifices receiving much praise. With numerous creative abilities as displayed in his work at the Metz Cathedral he wrote nearly five hundred articles for the Encyclopédie. We see the full scope of his expertise displayed in this article. unknown‎

Of such importance is this suite that many studies have already been made of it. Foremost amongst these is Philipp P. Fehl's A Course in drawing by Nicolas Cochin the Younger and Denis Diderot 1954. With twelve pages of commentary the suite shows the school of design and its studio. The earlier plates are a complete guide to both the minor and the major tools of the 18th-century artist. Designed by Goussier the tools and equipment include early and important representations of the pantographe and the chambre obscure. There are then a further thirty plates on the human body with examinations of the correct proportions to use. With depictions of the intricate lines of the face of age and of passion these plates stand alone as a visual masterpiece. Furthermore many of the plates were executed after the designs of Raphael Sanzio Bouchardon Cochin Fragonard Jouvenet Le Brun de la Hire Poussin and Carache representing many periods of art. unknown‎

This vast suite of plates shows mines and earth works of an enormous size. Impressive cross-sections of shafts and images men at work in the processing halls and foundries make this one of the most visually compelling suites from Diderot's Encyclopédie. However these are not only attractive depictions of eighteenth-century mining and Earth Sciences they are a comprehensive guide to the operation and construction of the machines and tools employed. Diderot and Goussier 'the third Encyclopédist' who together visited many factories and workshops around France and Europe meant the Encyclopédie as a textbook and as a way of propagating new ideas and methods. For instance one of the largest sections in this suite is devoted to the famous Pont-Péan lead mines in Brittany where innovative hydraulic machines had recently been installed. Further plates demonstrate the arts of underground surveying and geometry the renowned slate quarries of Anjoun and the refining of mercury copper gold tin zinc and cobalt. No other publication had devoted this amount of attention to the mechanical arts before and none did again until the mid-nineteenth-century. These images are of considerable significance now as one of few records of mining practises and the mining machines of the eighteenth-century particularly interesting because of their attention to detail and their useful cross-sections and disassemblies. To accompany the plates are many relevant text entries including the main articles for Mine Minéral Minéralogie Minéraux Métal and Métallurgie by Paul-Henri Thiry Baron d'Holbach a French-German philosophe and encyclopédist author of the renowned Système de la Nature ou Des Loix du Monde Physique et du Monde Moral 1780. D'Holbach contributed around four hundred articles to the Encyclopédie a number of which were translations of German philosophical works. Another important paper is on Regne Minéral and is an abriged version of a work by Charles Le Roy a French physician and professor of medicine at Montpellier University. unknown‎
