5709Nogent-sur-Oise and Paris France. Ca. 1861-1864. Oblong 4to 11" x 16" original pebbled burgundy morocco raised Gothic Revival strapwork with applied brass ornaments and two brass clasps at fore edge title stamped in black at upper cover a.e.g. 20 original watercolors 6" x 9.25" to 6.5" x 9.75" 3 tinted lithographs 5.875" x 5.625"; 4" x 5.75"; 7.25" x 5.25" all plus margins. CONDITION: Very good light wear to cover extremities. <p>A lovely and historically valuable "estate portrait" album of original watercolor views by painter and lithographer Isidore-Laurent Deroy depicting the grounds of the Parc de Nogent and its residence noted for its incorporation of the façade of a 16th century château rescued from demolition at the eleventh hour in 1833.</p> <br /> <p>Constructed in the 1500s as an expansion and modernization of a fortification dating back to the Roman invasion the Château de Sarcus boasted twenty-two arches in total. It was designed by Martin Chambiges who worked in the high Gothic style and is known for the façades of several cathedrals. In 1833 its owner elected to demolish it and-so the story goes-Armand-Gustave Houbigant the mayor of Nogent-sur-Oise and the son of a famous early perfumer rushed nearly fifty miles to save it arriving in time to prevent the last three arches as well as several other architectural elements from being destroyed. Houbigant integrated the arched façade into his residence and as a historian wrote an account of what he had rescued. The Gothic façade appears in two of Deroy's watercolors and is the subject of all three of the lithographs one of which is captioned in the lower margin: "Trois des arcades du château de Sarcus Transportées et relevées par Mr. Houbigant à Nogent les Vierges Oise et formant un des façades de son habitation." After the second world war the Houbigant residence was vandalized and the façade was moved to the nearby parc Hébert à Nogent.</p> <br /> <p>Deroy's charming watercolors painted over the course of several years provide a comprehensive record of the Parc's many picturesque views and are almost always populated by figures-presumably meant to represent members of Houbigant's household-strolling with parasols along paths or across meadows boating on gentle waterways resting on the steps of a castle ruin playing with children or enjoying the view together often accompanied by their dog. In addition to the many lush and finely detailed landscapes Deroy's views show the Houbigant residence the Church at Nogent-sur-Oise exterior and interior and two other buildings as well as the distant town from within an octagonal or hexagonal porch with stained glass Gothic arches. In the captioned lithograph two male figures standing before the arched façade-one holding an open sketch book-likely represent Houbigant and Deroy themselves who were evidently artistic collaborators and friends.</p> <br /> <p>Armand-Gustave Houbigant who did not follow his father into the perfume business was a historian and visual artist. After inheriting his fortune he established himself at Nogent-sur-Oise in 1812. He is best known for designing a new set of playing cards in 1816 but he also produced numerous watercolors and views several of which Deroy lithographed and at least one of which "Lescar. Ruines du Château des Évêques de Béarn" 1854 Deroy actually retouched-"but only a little" according to an ink note on the painting: "he only touched the trees."</p> <br /> <p>Isidore-Laurent Deroy 1797-1886 was a painter draftsman and lithographer from Paris. He studied painting under Louis-François Cassas and architectural drawing under an artist cited in several sources simply as "Félix." His lithographs were exhibited at the Paris Salon from 1827 to 1866 and he received third class medals for lithography in 1836 and 1861. Some sources suggest he traveled to North America but this seems to be based on various lithographs of American views to his credit after August Kollner Köllner and others. All of these were produced by French lithographic firms-Gouptil and Vibert in the case of Kollner's "Views of American Cities"-but were often published by New York London and sometimes Berlin firms as well. From 1860 into the 1880s Deroy appears in the Paris trade directory Bottins as an "artiste-lithographe."</p> <br /> <p>A splendid collection of watercolor views of an impressive French country house and its grounds.</p> <br /> <p>REFERENCES: Houbigant A.-G.

C'est dire que durant ses soixante-quatorze ans d'existence cetterevue porte un témoignage direct sur l'évolution des mouvements artistiques etlittéraires ayant joué souvent un rôle actif soit dans la légitimation de la modernité et de l'innovation soit au contraire dans la défense des principes proclamés et propagés par les organes officiels de l'Institut et du gouvernement.

184017230Paris: V. Turgis editeur 10 rue Serpente 1840. Tinted lithograph with original hand colouring. Printed on wove paper. In excellent condition. Image size: 12 3/8 x 17 5/8 inches. A picturesque view of Lyon from the Guillotiere after a drawing by the celebrated French painter Nicolas-Marie Joseph Chapuy.<br/> <br/>Chapuy has chosen to depict Lyon from the Guillotiere neighborhood with the winding river running through the middle of the image. The docks next to the bridge are scattered with large stones and lumber and many small boats are moored along the banks. The bridge is crowded with pedestrians who make their way across the busy thoroughfare. Domes and spires crowd the horizon and two large boats hurry down the river. This sweeping view is a wonderful example of Chapuy's considerable talents and picturesque eye and a beautiful glimpse of Lyon in the early decades of the nineteenth century. Nicolas-Marie Joseph Chapuy was born in Paris in 1790 and in his early life became an officer in the Navy. An accomplished architect and landscape painter Chapuy is perhaps best known for his stunning lithographs. He exhibited regularly at the Salon and in 1833 won a third class medal for his lithography. He produced a wide array of lithographs which varied in subject from historical scenes to architectural views. Yet it was his landscape prints which received the most praise and garnered him his celebrated reputation. This impressive view of Lyon is a fantastic example of Chapuy's talents. The image includes a numbered key at the bottom of the sheet which lists all the principal buildings and monuments in the image and provides their exact location.<br/> <br/>Benezit.

006761Imp. Marie; Imprimerie Lemercier. Editeurs: Dutot; R. Lebrasseur; . Blindstamped Cloth. Very Good. N.d. circa 1860. Oblong 8vo 21 by 30 cm. 30 hand-colored plates of Paris and its surroundings. Basically two series of plates combined the first 24 drawn by Collette or Eichot and published by Imp. Marie with Dutot and R. Lebrasseur given as "editeurs" and the second group of six based on Deroy paintings and published by Lemercier. The collection of plates in this album were semi-standard with the binding itself and its title "Paris sous Napoleon III" being used for similar but not necessarily identical groups of plates. 30 plates in all was something of a standard number with some sets having a smaller number but obviouslly the binding is tailor-made for 30. Sets could be hand-colored or uncolored with colored plates the more desirable. It also appears quite common to combine plates from the Collette/Eichot series which are numbered 1 to 24 with Lemercier plates which are numbered but from the non-chronological numbering in this and other sets selected more randomly to reach a complement of 30. Plates are generally of the better known more magnificent sights in and around Paris with typically people horses coaches and other horse-drawn vehicles providing additional interest and perspective. Condition: some not all plates have darker age toning around the edges along with some foxing and thumb smudges. In our judgment half a dozen plates are marred by the soiling and/or ripples in the paper with the other plates clean or with non-disconcerting amounts of soil issues. The binding itself has some wear including rubbing some fading of the color and the like but remains more than passable and even attractive. <br /><br /> Imp. Marie; Imprimerie Lemercier.
