Book VG-: spine sunned/spotted mild shelf wear to boards and spine mild foxing to endpapers name on title page text clean binding tight. 8vo 320pp. second printing March 1930. from Foreword: "I propose in the following pages to present a critique of contemporary social thought in the light of a scientific humanism--a humanism i.e. which steering clear of ethical attitudes that arise from purely personal predilections does not pronounce a doctrine unsound unless it is either out of focus with the objectively observable human relations within which it functions or unless these relations themselves violate our fundamental human passions." #02613.

1845réf. 15379Paris 1845. Pen ink and watercolour. Very good condition apart from some overall light soiling and foxing overall light creasing and a vertical crease in the center. A rare example of an original watercolour design for porcelain by the Samson factory of Paris. This drawing shows a full-height outline of a covered pot with high waisted body and spreading foot drawn in ink and completed in delicate washes of red green and soft blue. The main surfaces are filled with loose asymmetrical floral sprays centred on a large bouquet of roses and other garden flowers repeated on the shoulder foot and domed cover. The spout and opposing handle take the form of sinuous dragon- or serpent-like creatures their heads heightened in red and their scaly bodies mottled in green adding a whimsical zoomorphic note to the otherwise floral scheme. The French porcelain manufactory Samson & Co. was founded in 1845 by Edmé Samson 1810-1891 a Paris-born painter on ceramics who began by making replacement pieces for damaged services before turning to high-quality reproductions of historic wares. Working first at 7 rue Vendôme later rue Béranger in Paris and later from a factory at Montreuil run by his son Emile Samson 1837-1913 the firm drew on a large study collection of original pieces to copy or adapt designs from Sèvres Meissen Chelsea Derby and Worcester as well as Chinese export porcelain Japanese Islamic Delft faience and maiolica. Samson always maintained that its reproductions were distinctly marked to avoid confusion with the originals though later removal or alteration of marks has often led the firms work to be mistaken for earlier pieces. Production continued into the twentieth century finally ceasing in 1969 and the manufactory is now recognised as one of the most inventive nineteenth-century interpreters of historic ceramic styles. Surviving design drawings such as the present work offer rare insight into the way the Samson workshop translated museum models and historic patterns into working colour copies for its painters and modellers. unknown
1845réf. 14128Paris 1845. Pen ink and watercolour. Good condition apart from some overall light soiling and minor foxing. A rare example of an original watercolour design for porcelain by the Samson factory of Paris. This drawing presents a finished watercolour elevation of a large baluster-shaped pitcher with additional details of the handle border ornament and a separate shield-shaped side panel drawn to the right.

1845réf. 15917Paris 1845. Pen ink and watercolour. Very good condition apart from some overall light soiling and mild staining. A rare example of an original watercolour design for porcelain by the Samson factory of Paris. This drawing sets out the decoration for a single tall covered vase. At the top are small studies of the cover; below the main portion of the sheet opens the vessel into a sequence of flattened panels representing each side of the body and neck. The pattern in ink and blue wash reflects Chinese blue-and-white porcelain with large floral rosettes and leafy sprays interspersed with small birds framed by simple borders at rim and foot.

1845réf. 15909Paris 1845. Pen ink and watercolour. Very good condition apart from some overall light soiling and mild foxing. A rare example of an original watercolour design for porcelain by the Samson factory of Paris. Here the designer presents a single large baluster vase in elevation with blue washes on a pale ground. A dense frieze of scrolls and shell-like motifs encircles the neck with long pendant lappets dropping towards the shoulder. Below the body is covered with stylised blossoms and foliage among which a small peacock stands prominently on one side. The decoration is arranged to suggest continuous bands around the vase. The restricted blue palette scrolling bands and bird-and-flower imagery all recall East Asian blue-and-white prototypes adapted here into a clear working drawing for a Samson vase in a similar style.

1710réf. 37419Paris: Hubert Jaillot 1710. In ausgezeichnetem Zustand. 803 by 560mm 31½ by 22 inches. Kupferstichkarte in zeitgenössischem Grenzkolorit. Mit großer prächtiger allegorischer Kartusche sowie Meilenzeiger mit Legende. Erschienen im großen AtlasAtlas Nouveau contenant. von Nicolaus Sanson u. Hubert Jaillot. Dargestellt wird der schwäbische Kreis im Norden mit dem benachbarten Franken u. im Süden bis zum Bodensee. Im Osten noch mit Teilen von Bayern der Westen mit dem angrenzenden Frankreich. Das Kartenbild sorgfältig u. übersichtlich ausgearbeitet. Der Atlas Nouveau. entstand als Auftragsarbeitet für Ludwig XIV. und nahm einen Zeitraum von über 10 Jahren in Anspruch. Die Karten gelten bis heute noch als eine Meisterleistung der französischen Kartographie des 17.Jahrhunderts. Als Geburtsjahr Jaillots wird das Jahr 1632 angenommen da in seiner Sterbeurkunde sein Alter mit 80 Jahren angegeben war. Der Geburtsort war Avignon-lès-Saint-Claude damals ein kleiner Weiler in der Exklave der Freigrafschaft Burgund die dazu gehörte Spanisches Königreich. Jaillot hatte seit seiner Kindheit ein großes Talent für Kunst und Design. Bildhauerei lernte er bei seinem Bruder Pierre-Simón. Als Folge der französisch-spanischen Konflikte wurde ihre Heimatstadt verwüstet und so gingen die beiden Brüder 1657 nach Paris. Dort erlangten sie bald einen gewissen Ruf und den Titel „Sculpteur du Roy. 1665 heiratete Jaillot in die Kartenverlegerfamilie Berey ein. Nach dem Tod seines Schwagers Nikolaus II. Berey 16401667 kaufte er die Berey-Kartensammlung von seiner Schwägerin. Dadurch erhielt er eine wertvolle Grundlage die er sofort vermarkten konnte ohne jemals selbst eine Karte erstellt zu haben. Jaillot stieg zu einem günstigen Zeitpunkt in das Kartengeschäft ein. Anfang 1668 gewann Ludwig XIV. den ersten seiner Réunionskriege und es begann eine Zeit in der Frankreich sein Territorium kontinuierlich erweiterte. Es entwickelte sich eine große Nachfrage nach Karten die die französischen Triumphe und die neuen Grenzen sowie bevorstehende Expansionspläne darstellten.Zu Jaillots Kartensammlung gehörten auch Druckplatten die von Pierre Duval 16191683 Neffe von Nicolas Sanson erstellt und ursprünglich an Nicolas Berey verkauft wurden. Doch Duval der auch seine eigenen Karten veröffentlichte weigerte sich seine alten Karten nachzudrucken. Auf dem Höhepunkt des Streits mit Duval rekrutierte Jaillot Ende 1670 Nicolas Sansons Söhne Guillaume und Adrien als Kartenmacher und Geschäftspartner. Mit ihnen konnte er neue Karten mit dem prestigeträchtigen Namen Sansons vermarkten. Sein erster Atlas aus dem Jahr 1681 Atlas Nouveau wurde ein so großer kommerzieller Erfolg dass andere Verlage begannen plagiierte Kopien zu verbreiten.Jaillot bemühte sich um königliche Schirmherrschaft und widmete viele seiner Kartenausgaben dem König. Schließlich wurde er am 20. Juli 1686 zum Géographe du Roy ernannt und erhielt eine jährliche Rente von 600 Livres. Dieser Titel sowie die protektionistische und kontrollierende Gesetzgebung ermöglichten es ihm sich erfolgreich gegen seine Plagiatoren zu wehren.Seit dem frühen 18. Jahrhundert gab Jaillot immer weniger Karten aus. Die Nachfrage nach zeitnah aktualisierten Karten nahm zu und er war immer weniger in der Lage auf die Anforderungen des Marktes zu reagieren. Jüngere Konkurrenten waren gut ausgebildete Geographen wie Guillaume Delisle die die Kartierung selbst durchführen konnten. Im Laufe der Zeit übergab Jaillot das Geschäft an seinen Sohn Bernard Jean-Hyacinthe.Alexis Hubert Jaillot starb am 2. November 1712 im Alter von 80 Jahren in Paris. Er wurde im Convent des Grands-Augustins beigesetzt. WikipediaNicolas Sanson der Ältere 20. Dezember 1600 in Abbeville Frankreich; 7. Juli 1667 in Paris war ein französischer Kartograph. Seine Vorfahren stammten aus Schottland. Zwischen 1618 und 1667 schuf Sanson rund 300 Einzelkarten sowie Atlanten und illustrierte Texte.Seine Arbeit wurde von seinen Söhnen Nicolas Sanson 1626 Schottland; 27. August 1648 in Paris Adrien Sanson 1708 und Guillaume Sanson 1703 seinem Neffen Pierre Duval 1619; 1683 ausgeführt. sein Enkel Pierre Moulard Sanson 1730 und Gilles Robert de Vaugondy 1688; 1766 führten weiter.

Large and decorative map of England by the French cartographer Nicolaus Sanson and Hubert Jaillot. Published in the 'Atlas Noveau.' this atlas was a masterpiece in the French cartography in the 17th century.

The map is probably published in a French composit atlas around this date. N. Sanson unknown

1944réf. 32229France: Ceux de la Resistance 1944. First edition. Color printed boards cloth back edges a little rubbed. 60 unnumbered pages : 12 full-pagebbcolor illustrations ; 32 cm. The authorship is perhaps not surprisingly a little obscure. The authors' full names as above are listed in the 1946 Catalog of Copyright Entries and the on-line catalog of the Bibliothek des Deutschen Historischen Museums while the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin substitutes "Samson" for "Nebelska". The BNF lists only the pseudonymous attributions. Wanda Stefanowska-Nebelska b.1919 under the nom-de-guerre "Christine" is listed in the database of the Musée de la résistance en ligne as a member of the Polish resistance in France. Maurice Denier if the author here is the same person was a playwright of the 1890s his identity slightly concealed by the reversed spelling. Published by C.D.L.R. Ceux de la Résistance for Christmas 1944. The cover illustrates the two devils on either side of the Cross of Lorraine with "V" for Victory. Two little devils join the FFI Forces Françaises de l'Intérieur and make things hot for the Germans. A 1946 sequel appeared 'Asfer et Sato en Alsace au service secret'. Ceux de la Resistance unknown
