109898St. Petersburg Lithographic Department of the Military Settlement 1835. . First edition small folio 31 x 22 cm; lithographic title and 10 unnumbered coloured by contemporary hand title soiled at foot where mark of ownership erased bottom corners of leaves with very light staining pl. 7 with printed Russian caption and early manuscript German translation; contemporary green Russian morocco upper cover lettered in gilt both covers with elaborate panelling in gilt and blind flat spine in gilt panels gilt turn-ins blue endpapers gilt edges extremities rubbed tiny split in joint at head of spine a fine copy.<br /> Remarkably fine series of hand-coloured prints of military costumes after Paul I in an exceptional contemporary Russian binding. The book was printed at the personal bequest of his son Tsar Nicholas I in an incredibly small edition. The short reign of Paul I ended with his murder in 1801 and was marked by his obsession with dress uniforms. All ten of the figures in this rare suite are drawn in the same posture at attention with arms firmly clasped to sides and though this gives them a slightly doll-like quality they are painstakingly and beautifully coloured by a contemporary hand. Nicholas I viewed his father with deep reverence and also admired the pomp and order of the Imperial army this publication was an attempt to honour his father's legacy.<br /> [St. Petersburg], Lithographic Department of the Military Settlement, 1835. unknown

1798132180St Petersburg: A l'Academie Imperiale des Sciences 1798. First and only edition. Single location on WorldCat at BL KVK adds a copy in the Austrian National Library lacking 2 plates; and copies in the Zentralbibliothek der Bundeswehr Düsseldorf and Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt Halle. Decidedly uncommon infantry manual for the Imperial Russian Army from the brief reign of Tsar Paul I r.1796-1801. Paul had travelled extensively in Europe and had developed a taste for French and Italian architecture and Prussian military practice taking immense pleasure in rigidly drilling his private brigade of troops in the Versailles-inspired grounds of his estate at Gatchina. When he ascended the throne he attempted to remodel the army along Prussian lines introducing entirely impractical uniforms a regime of elaborate ceremonials and parades and as shown here the implementation of rigourous regulations and drill. The present manual was directly translated into French from its Prussian equivalent the words of command also being given in phonetically rendered Russian. Paul was assassinated by a group of disaffected army officers after just 4 years on the throne. Octavo 196 x 110 mm. 13 folding plates at the rear; somewhat erratically numbered no plate 1 2 plans numbered 4 but apparently complete. Recent mottled sheep-backed marbled boards by G. Gauché Paris red morocco label gilt rules to the spine. Spine lightly sunned light soiling to the title page pale toning to the text-block throughout overall very good. hardcover
