He contributed to the revival of this technique which in the previous century was mainly reserved for the illustration and decoration of popular prints. Well-known as an ornamentalist Papillon engraved numerous typographic headpieces notably for official prints by the Imprimerie Royale as well as tailpieces for large luxury editions such as La Fontaine's <em>Fables</em> illustrated by Oudry. He also wrote all the articles concerning his art for Diderot and d'Alembert's <em>Encyclopédie</em>.</p><p>Jean Michel Papillon 1698-1776 was considered in the Eighteenth Century to be the only learned wood engraver an art long considered as minor. He was the author of an important <em>Traité historique et pratique de la gravure en bois</em> 1766 which was the source of much information and from 1747 he collaborated closely with the editors of the <em>Encyclopédie</em> providing the décorative letters vignettes fleurons and tailpieces in the dictionary and the volumes of illustrations. This contribution which sometimes seems to have led to tensions has rarely been emphasized or studied even though the engraver provides in his Treatise mimerons dues about his contribution and choices of illustrations for the <em>Encyclopédie</em>. Papillon also signed some articles but not only the ones we would expect and his relations with Diderot seem to have been difficult.</p><p><strong>A precious copy enriched with a folded autograph letter bound in blond calf with the coat of arms</strong>of <em>Guillaume Gabriel Pavée de Vendeuvre</em> born in Paris in 1779 deputy then peer of France.

Il contribua au renouveau de cette technique qui au siècle précédent était principalement réservée à l'illustration et au décor des impressions populaires. Très connu comme ornemaniste Papillon grava de nombreux bandeaux typographiques notamment pour des impressions officielles de l'Imprimerie Royale des culs-de-lampe pour les grandes éditions de luxe telle les <em>Fables</em> de La Fontaine illustrées par Oudry. Il rédigea aussi tous les articles concernant son art pour l'<em>Encyclopédie</em> de Diderot et d'Alembert.</p><p>Jean Michel Papillon 1698-1776 passait au XVIIIème siècle pour le seul graveur en bois savant dans un art depuis longtemps tenu pour mineur. Auteur en 1766 d'un important <em>Traité historique et pratique de la gravure en bois</em> source de beaucoup d'informations il a eu l'occasion dès 1747 de collaborer étroitement avec les éditeurs de l'<em>Encyclopédie</em> fournissant lettrines vignettes fleurons et culs-de-lampe qui ornent le dictionnaire et les volumes de planches. Cette contribution qui semble avoir été parfois tendue a rarement été soulignée et étudiée. Pourtant le graveur livre dans son <em>Traité</em> de nombreuses clés sur sa participation et les choix iconographiques faits pour l'<em>Encyclopédie</em>. En outre Papillon signe quelques articles mais pas toujours ceux que l'on attendait de lui : il semble avoir eu avec Diderot des relations difficiles.</p><p><strong>Précieux exemplaire enrichi d'une lettre autographe repliée relié en veau blond aux armes de</strong> <em>Guillaume Gabriel Pavée de Vendeuvre</em> né à Paris en 1779 est député puis pair de France.
