He was active as early as 1454 as a bookseller and was also active as a scribe translator and contractor for manuscripts which meant entering into contracts with the clients and organizing and sub-contracting the elements such as scribing decorating and binding. From 1474 until 1476 he worked together with the early English printer William Caxton and he continued the company on his own afterwards. Caxton probably learned the art of printing from Mansion and it was from Mansion's press that the first books printed in English Recuyell of the Historyes of Troye and French came. He moved to the Burg the commercial heart of Bruges at the time in 1478. Mansion suffered heavily under the economic crisis in Bruges in the 1480s and only one work was printed after the death of Mary of Burgundy in 1482. Nothing is known with certainty about his life after 1484 although he may have moved to Picardy." Academic Dictionaries and Encyclopedias BMC. Goff. GW. Hain. Polain. Proctor. HBS 68911. $5500.

Folio. Twelve numbered hand-colored lithographed plates measuring approximately 7 5/8 x 5 1/2 inches; 193 x 138 mm. on sheets measuring approximately 15 3/8 x 11 3/16 inches; 390 x 286 mm. all heightened with gum arabic. The plates are printed by C. Hullmandel and are dated from Novr. 1st 1831 to Feby. 1st 1832. Loose probably as issued in an early stiff blue paper wrapper with the title label and shelf mark of the Hofbibliothek Donaueschingen. Housed in a half dark red morocco over marbled boards clamshell case front cover with rectangular maroon morocco bordered and lettered in gilt. Smooth spine with dark red morocco label lettered in gilt. A wonderful copy of this extremely rare series of plates. We have been unable to locate any other copies. The plates are captioned: "Russia Kazan Prov: Potlaki;" "Environs of Naples;" "Hungary Prov: Phillipowan;" "France Pyrenees;" "Austria Schlavonia;" "Spain Valencia;" "Italy Bologna;" "Austria Ilauzi;" "Illyria;" "Switzerland Berne;" "Portugal Vale of Almeda;" and "Grand Duchy of Baden." MANSION Andre-Leon 1785-1834. A truly beautiful suite of plates depicting the national ball costumes of countries such as Hungary Switzerland and Austria. Andre Leon Larue known professionally as Mansion was the son of a portrait painter. He worked predominantly as a miniaturist creating portraits of such figures as Empress Josephine 1763-1814 and Napoleon I 1769-1821. However he also had a celebrated career as an aquatinter producing such notable suites of costume plates as Fancy Dress Ball 1831 and the present suite National Ball Costumes. The artist's soft modeling of the fabrics and the delicate detailing of the character's faces all recall the artist's training in miniature painting. This series of ball costumes when issued was reviewed by The Spectator where it was described as following on from a 'series of superb costumes' entitled "Fancy Ball Dresses" of which we have had occasion to speak in terms of admiration and with whose style most of our readers are familiar having seen the plates in the prire shop windows for these few months past. The same clever artist who is a Frenchman by the way has commenced a new series of female costumes denominated "National Ball Costumes" which are got up in the same splendid style of colouring and are equally distinguished for richness of effect and costliness of materials and ornament' The Spectator 3 December 1831 pp. 20-21. Bobins IV 1248; Not in Colas Hiler or Lipperheide. London: Pubd....by R. Ackermann, 1831 unknown
