Ex-library with bookplates on front pastedown. Some thumbing minor foxing large mark on p. 143. <br/><br/>Pierre Dupuy 1582-1651 was keeper of the French king's library a post which allowed him to become acquainted with and copy an enormous mass of unpublished documents. These furnished him with the material for some excellent works probably including this one. However this book also bears some relationship to a smaller work by Pierre Pithou 1539-1596 sometimes published under the same title. Whoever compiled it it remains an important contribution to the history of the relations of church and state in the Middle Ages. The text is written from the Gallican standpoint i.e. in favour of the rights of the crown in temporal and political matters which explains the delay in their publication until after Dupuy's death.

Further with large flowered and emblematic woodcut head- and tailpieces. 20 396 pp. Rare first edition of this manual on the theory of baroque painting composition and colours by Bernard Dupuy du Grez 1639-1720 a celebrated Toulouse scholar. After his education and a Grand Tour in Italy Dupuy de Grez became a lawyer at the parlement of Toulouse but soon he abandoned his career for a life devoted to art and science. In 1683 he founded a public drawing school the Ecole des Baux-Arts at Toulouse which later in 1751 became the famous Royal Academy of Painting Sculpture and Architecture. His model was the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in Paris founded in 1648 to free artists from the hold of the old corporations. Most of Dupuy's written work including a history of Toulouse remained in manuscript but the present manual was published especially for use in his drawing school. The work consists of four main treatises each preceeded by an allegorical engraving: 1 Traité sur la peinture. Contenant sa definition sa division & sa noblesse Painting theory definition and history including a comparison between painting and sculpture; 2 Qu'est-ce que le dessein & des moyens de s'y avancer The art of drawing the basic art for many other arts including the rules and principles of perspective and proportion. This part has a supplement discussing the proportions of the human body with references to Vitruvius Dürer Gauricus Lomasse etc. as well as the latest opinions on perspective; 3 Du coloris en quoy is consiste & du choix qu'on en peut faire Colours and the perspective of lights and shadows also with a supplement added discussing the practical use of colours in frescos in working with crayon or oil paints in miniatures etc.; 4 De la composition Composition of a drawing or painting with emphasis on perspective including the teaching of an easy method of perspective. Following this 4th treatise is the Traité d'optique. Pour suplement à la quatrième dissertation sur la composition illustrated with 8 engravings showing perspective.The book is very well produced and beautifully illustrated with finely etched plates after Antoine Rivalz 1667-1725 a Toulouse painter and etcher who in 1726 also founded a school for drawing inspired by the Ecole des Baux-Arts founded by Duput. The plates are printed in reverse.In 1972 the book was considered so important that a facsimilé edition was published in Geneva.Good copy with the engraved coat-of-arms of the Baptist Earl of Gainsborough dated 1700.- Some marginal browning and some repairs in the margins.l Brunet VI 9246; Cioranescu 17e siècle 27820; Cat.
