1840114424A Paris: chez Basset rue St Jacques 64. Very Good- with no dust jacket. 1840. Unknown. Softcover. Hand coloured engraving. Image VG - blank margins have a some faults. NO date but possibly between around 1840 and given the 'Dembour et Gangel' note on the print see later likely a later impression of a late 18th Century print . Additional printed caption "VUE DU CHATEAU DE St CLOUD PRES DE PARIS" inverted mirror image on the upper margin. Paper very lightly marked and quite creased and 'rolled' to the edges with quite a lot of closed tears - no loss neatly repaired with archive tape to the reverse to those broad blank margins otherwise a very good engraving. This interesting prospective view most likely prepared for a 'peep box'. "Vue Optique" Vue d'Optique or perspective view/optical view refers to a genre of etching popular during the second half of the 18th century and well into the 19th. Such 'Vues' were specifically developed to provide the illusion of depth when viewed through a zograscope also known as an "optical diagonal machine" or viewers with similar functions. Optical viewers were generally popular with well-to-do European families in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This print has the Publisher as 'A Paris chez Basset rue St Jacques 64' at the left hand side of the print under the main Title and "Dembour et Gangel editeurs a Metz Moselle. Depose" on the right hand side under the main Title. Other than those mentioned above there are no other publication details or text on this print. Paul Andre Basset was a Paris print publisher printseller wallpaper manufacturer and the son of André Basset. He married in 1787 and was very active during the revolutionary period. He was situated in Paris at rue Saint Jacques no.64 where his firm remained until at least 1885. Dembour and Gangel were also Publishers and Printer manufacturers. Associated from 1840 to 1852. The Image alone without the broad borders measures 15.25" x 9. 85 " 38. 7 cm x 25 cm . See Images ; Oblong Folio 13" - 23" tall . chez Basset, rue St Jacques 64, paperback
