Reliure du XIXè siècle. 227 X 160 mm. EDITION ORIGINALE RARE ET PRECIEUSE DU « plus beau livre d'Entrée des rois de France qui ait été publié » (Ruggieri, 245). EDITION ORIGINALE DU SACRE ET COURONNEMENT DE LA REINE CATHERINE DE MEDICIS. Fairfax Murray French, 150 ; Du Colombier, Jean Goujon, p. 67-71, planche LVI-LVII ; Vinet, 471 ; Picot Rothschild, IV, 3114 ; Mortimer French, 202l ; Watanabe,1602. RELATION DE L'ENTREE SOLENNELLE A PARIS D'HENRI II EN ET DE CATHERINE DE MEDICIS EN 1549, deux ans après l'avènement du roi qui succédait à son père François Ier, mort en 1547. LE PREMIER OUVRAGE DECRIT LA CEREMONIE DE L'ENTREE, LE SECOND RELATE LE SACRE DE LA REINE, SIX JOURS AUPARAVANT, A SAINT-DENIS. En marquant la liquidation de la succession de François Ier, l'événement revêtait une importance politique considérable. LA VILLE DE PARIS LUI DONNA UNE SOLENNITE PARTICULIERE, N'EPARGNANT AUCUN EFFORT POUR EN SOULIGNER LE CARACTERE MAJESTUEUX : LES DECORS ET LES EDIFICES FURENT DESSINES ET CONSTRUITS SOUS LA DIRECTION DES PLUS GRANDS ARTISTES, SANS DOUTE Jean Cousin, Jean Goujon et Philibert de l'Orme. La coutume des entrées solennelles de souverains dans une ville, et principalement dans une capitale, remonte à la plus haute Antiquité et s'est poursuivie pratiquement à toutes les époques. Sauf quelques exceptions, ce n'est qu'à partir de 1515, lors de l'Entrée de Charles-Quint à Bruges, que celles-ci auraient donné lieu à des relations imprimées illustrées (von Arnim, Fünf Jahrhunderte Buchillustration, p. 91). CE BEAU ET RARE LIVRE ILLUSTRE CONSERVE LE SOUVENIR DES PLUS BELLES DECORATIONS ARCHITECTURALES DU SEIZIEME SIECLE ET DECRIT LA MAGNIFICENCE DE CETTE ENTREE ROYALE. Le texte, attribué à Hardouyn Chauveau par une inscription ancienne dans l'exemplaire Soleinne, serait dû, selon V.L. Saulnier, Les Fêtes de la Renaissance, I, pp. 31-59, au traducteur de Serlio, de Vitruve et de l'Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, l'écrivain Jean Martin, assisté, pour les inscriptions sur les monuments, du poète Thomas Sebillet. LES ONZE PLANCHES SUR BOIS, HORS ET DANS LE TEXTE, QUI DECORENT L'OUVRAGE, EN PARTIE SIGNEES D'UNE CROIX DE LORRAINE, ONT ETE ATTRIBUEES AUX PLUS GRANDS ARTISTES. PAR LA PERFECTION DE LEUR GRAVURE ET L'ELEGANCE DE LEUR DESSIN, EXEMPLES PARFAITS DU STYLE HENRI II DANS SON EXPRESSION PARISIENNE LA PLUS RAFFINEE, ELLES PASSENT POUR L'UN DES CHEFS-D’ŒUVRE DE L'ILLUSTRATION FRANÇAISE DU SEIZIEME SIECLE. La question reste évidemment ouverte de savoir si ces gravures traduisent les dessins ayant servi à élever les monuments de la réception ou si elles en restituent seulement l'aspect. La décoration de ces planches comporte à deux endroits au moins, au pont de Notre-Dame et à la construction flanquant le Beautreillis, le monogramme de Diane de Poitiers ; son emblème, le croissant, qui pourrait passer pour un motif décoratif, figure à plusieurs autres endroits, mais sur ces deux constructions son chiffre s'étale complaisamment à côté, voire à la place, de celui du roi ; le texte mentionne les monogrammes au H du roi mais reste muet sur ceux de sa maîtresse, âgée de cinquante ans, qui figurait dans le cortège de la reine sous son nouveau titre de duchesse de Vale.

Rés. Vélins 2258. We recognize the expressionless looks of the illuminated figures with large black pupils lot of white in the eyes and heavy eyelids. On mainly flat illuminations the folds are highlighted by a thicker line often black. WE notice as our artist is very respectful and faithful to the engravings. His style can be seen in several BOOKS OF HOURS. In Paris Hours BnF. lat. 1387-1376 in the Announcement to the shepherds and the Presentation in the Temple he was inspired by engravings from the Thielman Kerver series printed from 1497. Two iconographic themes are peculiar: Saint Gemme and the Virgin handing over to Canon Arnoul the text of the prayer "Missus est Gabriel" themes represented by the MASTER OF ETIENNE PONCHER in the hours Paris BnF. lat. 18017. The two artists collaborate in the HEURES DE LYON Bm. Ms. 5997. In this last manuscript our artist is again inspired by engravings for the Presentation in the Temple Simon Vostre from 1496 and for the Betrayal of Judas Kerver from 1497. Here too he demonstrates originality by representing the Meal at Emmaüs Isabelle Delaunay Artistic exchanges between handwritten and printed books of hours produced in Paris doctoral thesis ss. The direction of F. Joubert Pairs IV 2000 p. 98 fig. 130 254 fig. 327 296 380. His activity as an illuminator of engravings continued into the 16th century. He was responsible for illuminating the HOURS FOR THE USE OF ROME Nicolas Higman for Simon Vostre around 1512 for the same use those of Gillet Hardouin around 1516 and again for the use of Rome those of Guillaume Le Rouge around 1510 H.

Very interesting is the BOOK OF HOURS FOR THE USE OF ROME in Milan Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense AC. VIII 28 illuminated in Paris around 1507 for NICOLAS DE LA FONS. The name of the owner is designated by an inscription in capital letters on five lines alternately in blue and gold ink under the miniature of Saint Nicholas. NICOLAS DE LA FONS originally from Saint-Quentin in Aisne presented himself as "Esleu du Vermandois" a position he held from 1507. He was a wealthy officer who was entrusted with the distribution of the collection of aid in his site in Vermondois and the recruitment of war personnel. IT IS AFTER THIS MANUSCRIPT THAT WE CAN NAME THE ILLUMINATOR OF THE PRESENT "MASTER OF NICOLAS DE LA FONS". A skilful and firm hand compositions stripped of all details a reduced and dull palette and painting mainly in flat areas characterize his style. In the list of his sponsors we include ANNE LA ROUTYE who entered the Hôtel-Dieu in Paris at the age of 14 in 1505 who approached our artist for the addition of two miniatures in a BOOK OF HOURS PARISIAN from the mid-15th century Sydney University Library Ms. Additional 58 see P.R.

15445841Réunion en 1 seul volume de trois textes imprimés par Robert Estienne en latin italique en 1544 : Rerum gestorum de Ammianus Marcellinus (513 pp. il faut ajouter le doublement des pages 353-368; la page 401 n'existe pas d'origine : le texte est bien complet.); Trebellius Pollio, Flavius Vopiscus, Sex. Aurelius Victor, Pomponius Laetus, Ioh. Babtista Egnatius : De princibus romanorum; le troisième recueil est composé de textes traitant toujours de l'histoire romaine par Dion Cassius, Aelius Spartanus, Julius Capitolinus, Aelius Lampridius et Vulcatius Gallicanus. Ex-libris manuscrit "Gouye de Longuemarre" sur les pages de titre des trois volumes reliés en 1. Exceptionnel exemplaire du grand imprimeur de la Renaissance, dans une très agréable reliure de l'époque. Nombreuses notes manuscrites de l'époque en marge. L’ouvrage porte la signature autographe de GOUYE DE LONGUEMARE de Dieppe. Il semblerait que ce soit un parent du jésuite GOUYE, célèbre astronome en son temps. Longuemare serait né en 1715 et fut un historien qui publia divers ouvrages jusqu’en 1763 date de sa mort. Plein veau havane, dos à nerfs orné, pièce de titre en maroquin rouge, beau fleuron au centre de chacun des plats, filets dorés sur les plats. La reliure semble avoir été restaurée très anciennement.
