Marais was a French composer and viol player. "He is one of the outstanding figures in French music of the Baroque period. . A viol virtuoso Marais was one of the first French instrumentalists to make his mark as a soloist. Gifted with a remarkable technique he developed it adding new complexities. His pleasing tone had a rare power thanks to an 'airy' style of playing which made full use of open strings and their harmonics. However his virtuosity always took second place to his musicality. His performances full of charm and 'fire' captivated his contemporaries who said that he played 'like an angel'. Composer and performer were closely linked for at this time soloists concentrated almost exclusively on playing their own works at concerts. Between 1686 and 1725 Marais published five books of pieces for viol and continuo and several suites for two and three viols - a total of 596 pieces grouped into 39 suites two of them for three viols." Jérôme de La Gorce and Sylvette Milliot in Grove Music Online Works of both the artist Antoine Pezey 16-16 and the engraver Antoine Trouvain 1656-1708 of the title page are held in major museum collections. The present work constitutes the first published music for viola da gamba by Marin Marais the greatest viol-player of the Baroque era.

Monument élevé a la gloire de Pierre-Le-Grand

1777réf. 115583Paris: Nyon and Stoupe 1777. The invention of ball bearings making possible one of the great engineering feats of the 18th century First edition of this account of this remarkable feat the first practical use of ball bearings in engineering. Charged with designing the bronze equestrian statue of the Russian emperor Peter the Great that remains a celebrated landmark of St Petersburg the French sculptor Etienne Falconet decided that the traditional pedestal for equestrian statues would be too mundane. Only a massive rock would suffice. Eventually an enormous piece of granite was located in a marsh near the Gulf of Finland. The Thunder Stone as it was dubbed was estimated to be 40 feet long 25 feet side and 21 feet tall and weighed some 1800 tons: about 1300 tons more than any of the obelisks moved by the ancient Egyptians or Romans. Most engineers declared its removal impossible but Catherine the Great turned to Carburi a Greek of dubious moral reputation who had banished himself from his native island of Cephalonia and had come to Russia where he found favour with the empress. To move the giant rock Carburi devised a gigantic sled moving on a system of rails and six-inch bronze ball bearings. Although ball bearings had been shown in earlier sketches by both Leonardo da Vinci and Agostino Ramelli Carburi's feat was the first practical demonstration of their use. It predated the first modern recorded patent on ball bearings that awarded to Philip Vaughan a British inventor and ironmaster who created a design for a ball bearing in Carmarthen in 1794 by more than two decades. The project invited comparison to the moving of the Vatican obelisk by Fontana in the 16th century which Carburi here argues must have been easier because it was a shorter distance. Folio 423 x 280 mm. With 12 folding engraved plates most double-page by Sellier and d'Elvaux after Blarenberg. Contemporary mottled calf red morocco label spine gilt in compartments marbled endpapers red edges. Armorial bookplate of Henry Tronchin.

La Perspective Curieuse.Divisée en Quatre Livres Avec lOptrique et La Catoptrique du R.P. Mersenne

1663réf. 1752Paris: Jean du Puis/Widow of Langlois 1663. Scarce edition of this important treatise on perspective by the most scientifically rigorous of 17th-century French theorists of particular interest for its contention that the illustrations to earlier treatises were often defective Millard thus making it the first work on the subject to treat the problem of didactic illustration in a deliberate and self-conscious manner. A comprehensive textbook Book I gives basic geometrical definitions and an introduction to perspective construction; Book II treats simple and deformed perspectivenamely the curved or irregular surfaces found in vaulted ceilings niches etc. and examines the necessary surface distortion anamorphosis to bring a picture painted on such a surface into perspective; Book III deals with more complex cases of anamorphosis such as reflections on flat cylindrical and conical surfaces; and Book IV covers the use of dioptrics for placing figures on flat surfaces. The sections of books II and III dealing with anamorphosis were particularly important whether in Nicerons own practice as a painter or for later artists or theorists see the chapter on Niceron in Baltruaitis and according to Mahoney DSB the discussion of refraction in Book IV possibly contains the first published reference to Descartes derivation of the law of refraction X.104. The work first appeared in French in 1638; reprinted in 1646 and 1651 in the latter with the first appearance of Mersennes treatise. This edition is a second edition of that reprint. Millard French 124 1663; Wiebenson III.b.18; Kemp The Science of Art pp. 129ff.; Baltruaitis Anamorphosis 51ff. Folio 35 x 22.5 cm engraved frontispiece signed Daret 6 ff. including half-title and title engraved portrait of Niceron signed M. Lasne 191 1 pp. with 7 woodcut diagrams in text and 50 numbered plates 49 full-page 1 double page; 6 ff. 134 pp. Note: plates bound at back. Bound in contemporary calf covers ruled spine with raised bands elaborately gilt; covers abraded and some small chips to spine on bands; former ownership stamp on verso of title; spotting and even toning or light browning on scattered leaves often seen in this work; wormhole in margin of plates 27 and following repaired extending into printed surface generally only printed border. Otherwise very good. Jean du Puis/Widow of Langlois hardcover

Part I contains the earliest examples of music engraving in France. Part II is an important study of musical instruments of the late Renaissance and early Baroque. Mersenne was a "French mathematician philosopher music theorist and savant. He was one of the leading French thinkers of the 17th century and his work is central to the academic and scientific movements of the second quarter of the century; an important part of it is devoted to the science theory and practice of music. He was a transitional figure at a crucial confluence of Renaissance and Baroque ideas in France summing up the accomplishments of the past and posing the difficult questions for the future inherent in the new attitudes of his own time." Albert Cohen in Grove Music Online "An examination of the Harmonicorum will at once show how much it was in advance of anything published up to that time and it is the first in which the science of acoustics is applied practically to the study of Music. Perhaps to us in the present day the greatest interest is in the last four Books treating of the various instruments known at that time divided into stringed and wind instruments the organ having a book to itself and instruments of percussion as bells and drums. These are illustrated profusely with woodcuts as well as with engravings on copper both printed in the text. It is worthy of notice that in treating of the organ several schemes are given for dividing the octave into more than twelve semi-tones so as to be able to use it in the keys impossible with unequal temperament." Matthew: The Literature of Music p. 53. Mersenne also authored an early and influential work on music theory Harmonie Universelle published in Paris 1636-37 addressing the relationship between music and mathematics and containing the earliest presentation of what have become known as "Mersenne's Laws" describing the harmonics of vibrating strings; he is thus often referred to as the "father of acoustics." A cornerstone of the literature. Guillelmi Baudry unknown books
