ATLASES & MAPS PORTFOLIO RECUEIL DE PLANS DE LA VILLE DE PARIS

291568An assembled portfolio of eighteen 17th and 18th century engraved plans and plates relating to Paris. ~A true rarity in the portfolio is Israel Silvestre's 17th century "Vue General de Paris en Deux Feuilles". It is a magnificent panoramic view of Paris from the hill of Chaillot in two sheets. There is a third sheet with an elaborate cartouche and with flanking texts in Latin and in French. The "Vue General" in its two leaves is approximately 142 x 41 cm. to which the third sheet with cartouche adds an additional 15 cm. or so.~~This comment about Silvestre's "Vue General de Paris" is loosely translated from the Bulletin de la Societe d'Archaeologie de Lorraine Tome VI; Nancy: A. Lepage 1856; p. 135:~~Regarding the first sheet: "We see the Tuileries in the background of the first sheet; towards the middle the faubourg St. Honore and then the heights of Montmartre. In the foreground on the left there are three men two seated with the third who is without a hat leaning on a stick. In the middle of the print at the front are the houses of Chaillot and on the right the Seine."~~Of the second sheet: "In the background towards the middle we see the Invalides; on the left are the bell towers of Saint Germain des Pres Notre Dame and several other churches. The Observatory is on the right at the bottom. There Seine and land surrounding it are in the foreground." "It is a general view of Paris taken from the heights of Chaillot and drawn by Silvestre from the terrace of his house some time before his death. This view of Paris is very rare."~~At the bottom of the two sheets there are 45 numbered sites and buildings identified in Latin and French.~~There are two dampstains to the top sheet at the fold. ~Silvestre died in Paris in 1691. His Vue General is c. 1690.~~~~There is a complete set of Ten Plans of the City of Paris engraved by Coquart Nicolas de Fer and Delagrive and intended to illustrate Nicolas Delamare's Treaty of Police. The first eight plans accompanied Volume I in 1705. The last two are plans by Delagrive and accompanied the fourth volume of the Treaty of Police published after the death of Delamare in 1738.~It is uncommon to find all of the ten plans assembled together. Together they show the continuous growth of Paris from the Caesar's time Lutece to the beginning of the 18th century.~~Three plates follow: 1. L'Hostel de la Ville de Paris and 2. Statue of Louis XIV in Roman armor; engraved by Jean Frosne 1630-1676and 3. The Reception of Louis XIV at the Hotel de la Ville by Sebastian Leclerc 1637-1714.~~Four smaller plates mounted two to a leaf follow. They are engraved by Ballieul L'Aine mid-18th century.~The plates are: 1. Vue Geometrale de L'Illumination; 2. Vue Perspective de L'Ilumination de l Rue de la Ferronerie; 3. Decoration du Throne Eleve; and 4. Decoration du Salon Compose de Tranparents.~~The elephant folio is bound in marbled boards expertly rebacked with a new spine. There are several dampstains generally at the corners or folds. The binding is 64 x 42 cm. The largest of the plans of Paris is the Delagrive's elegant 1737 Neuvieme Plan de Paris 63 x 83 cm. unknown books
