" <em>We propose by making this engraved map to show at a glance all the buildings and all the streets of Paris</em> " informed the editor.</p><p>"This bird's eye map the widest of this sort ever tackled is known under the improper designation of 'Plan de Turgot'. It is composed besides the map of combination of twenty leaves that altogether form five ranks. Each leave as a surround of 79 centim. large on 50 high. The twenty assembled leaves thus form a square of about 316 centim. on 245 excluding the margin. This surface would bother more than one Parisian amateur whose allocation is way too narrow to have it in its cabinet.</p><p>The engraved title is at the bottom of the leaves 18 and 19 in the middle of a cartouche with a very circumvented shape surrounded with volutes and topped with the allegorical figure of the city of Paris resting on her shield.</p><p>This map takes usually the form of a large folio atlas; each leaf printed on thick paper is folded in two and glued on guard. It is said that most copies were bound at the time with more or less luxury to be distributed for free with no doubt to distinguished figures; all sheepskin or Levant morocco bindings are decorated in their center with the arms of Paris. Some copies were printed with wide margins.</p><p>This map ends the series of bird's eye maps and if after this period we still see some of those published it would be older maps copied or refreshed. Louis Bretez who drew it around 1734 derogated the generally admitted custom of positioning maps according to the noon mark because willing to give of Paris an image in front view he had to prefer with the model of previous geographers a system that would allow to see in front view the gates of our ancient churches so numerous still churches that for the most part had their facades directed westward. It is deplorable that the map as it was conceived wasn't created on an earlier date at least from a century. It would have been because of its dimensions of a much higher interest for the archaeologists of today.</p><p>The drawing ordered by Turgot was achieved in 1734; it represents thus the state of Paris at this time. Claude Lucas who engraved it is probably the one who worked on the maps of the districts of La Caille 1714 or perhaps his son.</p><p>The choice that was made of a bird's eye map must have led to huge costs…</p><p>The image of Paris represented here still offers I say it again a big appeal and documentation for archaeology. The few number of ancient buildings that have survived is so quickly diminishing day by day or is suffering from strange metamorphoses with the hideous mask of replastering so much that the Paris of Turgot threatened by our thousands of projects of alignment and expansion will soon have to be called in turn the 'old Paris' ….

" <em>On s'est proposé en faisant graver ce plan de faire voir d'un seul coup d'œil tous les édifices et toutes les rues qu'elle renferme</em> " avertit l'éditeur.</p><p>" Ce plan à vol d'oiseau le plus vaste en ce genre qu'on ait entrepris est connu sous la désignation impropre de 'Plan de Turgot'. Il se compose outre le plan d'assemblage de vingt feuilles qui réunies forment cinq rangs. Chaque feuille a d'encadrement 79 centim. De largeur sur 50 de hauteur. Les vingt feuilles réunies forment donc un carré d'environ 316 centim. Sur 245 non compris la marge. Cette surface embarrasserait plus d'un amateur parisien trop étroitement logé pour en garnir son cabinet.</p><p>Le titre gravé se trouve au bas des feuilles 18 et 19 au milieu d'un cartouche de forme très contournée entouré de volutes et surmonté de la figure allégorique de la ville de Paris appuyée sur son blason.</p><p>Ce plan forme le plus souvent un atlas grand in-folio ; chaque feuille tirée sur un papier fort est pliée en deux et collée sur onglet. Il paraitrait que la plupart des exemplaires furent reliés dans le temps avec plus ou moins de luxe pour être distribués gratuitement sans doute à tous les personnages éminents ; toutes les reliures en mouton ou en maroquin du Levant sont ornées au centre des armes de Paris. Il y a des exemplaires tirés sur grandes marges.</p><p>Ce plan termine la série des plans à vol d'oiseau et si passé cette époque on en voit paraitre encore quelques-uns de ce genre ce sont des plans plus anciens copiés ou rajeunis. Louis Bretez qui le dessina vers 1734 dérogea à l'usage généralement admis d'orienter les cartes selon la méridienne parce que voulant donner de Paris une image en élévation il dut à l'exemple des anciens géographes préférer un système qui permît de voir de face les portails de nos anciennes églises si nombreuses ncore églises qui pour la plupart avaient leur façade tournée vers l'occident. Il est à regretter que le plan tel qu'il a été conçu n'ait pas une date antérieure d'au moins un siècle. Il eût été à raison de sa dimension d'un bien haut intérêt pour les archéologues d'aujourd'hui.</p><p>Le dessin ordonné par Turgot était achevé en 1734 ; il représente donc l'état de Paris à cette époque. Claude Lucas qui le grava est le même sans doute qui travailla aux plans des quartiers de La Caille 1714 ou peut-être son fils.</p><p>Le choix qu'on fit du genre à vol d'oiseau dut entrainer des frais immenses…</p><p>L'image de Paris qu'il représente offre encore je le répète beaucoup d'attraits et de documents à l'archéologie. Le petit nombre de vieux édifices qui ont survécu disaparaît de nos jours si rapidement ou subit de si étranges métamorphoses sous le hideux masque du replâtrage que la Paris de Turgot en proie à nos mille projets d'alignements et d'agrandissements devra bientôt s'appeler à son tour le 'vieux Paris' ….

This catalogue the splendid Han Fürstenberg — Otto Schäfer — Jacques Bemberg copy lists the plates made of the collections of the king including paintings medals royal chateaux fountains grottoes statues busts tapestries and jewels along with records of festivals entrances battles etc. etc. <br/> <br/> “Colbert understanding that engraving was the best means to disseminate and preserve knowledge of the undertakings of Louis XlV began to assemble a group of outstanding engravers. By 1660 they had achieved the stature of independent artists and by 1670 had become a special group under the protection of the king joined together at the Gobelins around Charles Le Brun and Sebastien Le Clerc. From 1660 André Félibien was charged with providing descriptions of maisons royales and Adam Van der Meulen and Israel Silvestre were sent to the newly conquered territories to make views of the principal chateaus and fortresses. Other commissions for the Cabinet du Roi included engravings by Chauveau of the king’s paintings at the Tuileries; copies of paintings and sculpture by Claude Mellan Rousselet and Audran in the galleries of the king; copies by Ronelet of the king’s collection of medals; and other works of art and architecture by Rousselet Silvestre Chauveau and Le Clerc. At the same time the Académie des Sciences began scholarly works commissioned by Colbert…Illustrators for these works were Abraham Bosse Sebastien Le Clerc who often made engravings for Claude Perrault Nicolas Bailly and L. de Châtillon… <br/> <br/> “From 1670 Colbert determined to join these engravings in a collection. He proposed that at the end of each year a temporary volume would be composed of all types of works with the text printed in French and Latin. At the end of ten or twelve years the collection would be subdivided by topics so that the king would have volumes separated into all the sciences and achievements of his reign… <br/> <br/> “A complete record of the king’s possessions was never achieved but the plan was continued by his successors. The engravings from the Cabinet du Roi were first published in a variety of sizes and separately. They were then collected into volumes according to Colbert’s plan but sporadically. In 1727 a new edition was published with additional plates and a catalogue. A third edition of twenty-three volumes with further additions and an index was issued in 1743. Later sets were formed with plates from various editions. The plates survive to the present day at the Chalcographie du Louvre.â€â€“Millard French Books 46. <br/> <br/> This catalogue was issued as a guide to the contents of the fifty sets of 956 plates of the 1743 edition which were prepared as gifts see Balayé La Bibliothèque Nationale des origines à 1800 pp. 226-27.

1783WRCAM34309Paris: de l'Imprimerie Royale 1783. 35pp. Quarto. Later marbled boards leather label. Very minor marginal dampstain throughout. Near fine untrimmed. The official French printing of the final treaty of peace between France and England in the American War of Independence concluded Sept. 3 1783 the same day as the final peace between the other powers in the conflict. Because of the French naval setbacks in 1782 the treaty resulted in little territorial loss for England and the powers returned each other's Caribbean possessions. Furthermore England's claims to Newfoundland were maintained and mutual fishing rights off the Canadian coast were agreed upon. The NUC and OCLC together locate nine copies of this scarce printing.

1783WRCAM20840London 1783. 14pp. Quarto. Antique half calf and marbled boards. Some minimal old ink underscoring else a near fine copy untrimmed. The first British publication of the terms of peace agreed upon between France and England after the American Revolution. The French had hoped to obtain more from England in the final peace settlement but De Grasse's catastrophic naval loss to Rodney in the Caribbean in 1782 weakened their position and the American commissioners forced their hand by coming to their own accord with the British on Nov. 30 1782. By this treaty the British cede Newfoundland fishing rights return St. Lucia and Tobago to France and France gives back Nevis Grenada St. Kitts Montserrat and St. Vincent to the British as well as territorial exchanges in India. This treaty was vital to the final resolution of the American Revolution since the United States was pledged to move with France as an ally and was not in a position to settle without her. The final treaties of all the warring powers were signed on Nov. 3 1783. DAVENPORT 169. AMERICAN CONTROVERSY 83-45. hardcover books
1784WRCAM34380Grenada: Printed by John Spahn 1784. 4pp. on a folio sheet folded once to quarto size. Splitting along most of the fold but the two leaves not detached. Stained along upper edge lightly tanned. Good. In a half morocco box. A very rare Grenada imprint printing extracts from the treaties which concluded the French and Indian War and the American Revolution especially those portions pertaining to Grenada and to Britain's guarantee of freedom of religion in her colonies. This proclamation was printed in Grenada by John Spahn and although undated was likely produced in 1784 following the news of Britain's re-acquisition of Grenada after the Treaty of Paris concluding the American Revolution. <br> <br> Four articles are reprinted from the Treaty of 1763 ending the French and Indian War: Article 4 passing all of Canada over to the British and ensuring freedom of religion to the former French subjects; Article 9 ceding Grenada the Grenadines St. Vincent Dominica and Tobago to the British and ensuring the same religious freedoms as those guaranteed to the former French subjects in Canada; and two articles pertaining to administrative matters. Four articles are also reprinted from the 1783 Treaty of Paris which ended the American Revolution: Article VII through which Britain ceded St. Lucia and Tobago to the French and in which the French guaranteed religious freedom to the Protestant inhabitants of the islands; Article VIII which gave Grenada the Grenadines St. Vincent's Dominica St. Christopher's Nevis and Montserrat and under which the British guaranteed religious freedom; and two other articles addressing legal and administrative questions. The third item reprinted is a proclamation by George III "given at Our Town of Fort Royal" in 1764 proclaims the sovereignty of British law on Grenada and the other recently acquired islands: "the laws of Great Britain are in force in this Island as far as the Nature and Circumstances of the Colony will permit; and that all other Jurisdictions Offices Commissions and Proceedings for the future not founded on those Our Laws of England are hereby declared to be absolutely determined utterly void and totally abolished." The Proclamation authorizes the calling of a General Assembly for the islands and gives the Governor General the power to institute laws and courts on the island until the legislature convenes. <br> <br> Printing on Grenada began as early as 1765 and continued through the French occupation of 1779-83. OCLC carries only one listing for John Spahn as a printer on Grenada - as publisher of the ST. GEORGE'S CHRONICLE AND GRENADA GAZETTE in 1800. Although the present extracts are undated it is most likely that they were printed shortly after the British regained control of Grenada in 1784. This document is not listed on OCLC nor are any Grenada imprints from the 1780s. A rare collection of treaty extracts carrying important information about the political and religious state of affairs in Grenada and the West Indies. Due to the humid climate in the area 18th-century imprints from the West Indies are virtually unobtainable. Printed by John Spahn unknown books
