Mary Lafon is favorably cited as "one of the rare writers who have understood the history and doctrine of the Albigensians", thanks to his knowledge of the language of the people he studied.
The religious issue is thus at the center of his history of the south and remains a valuable source for the history of the Waldensian and Albigensian heresies.
A very complete copy of the 3 maps enhanced with watercolor.

Figures de la Bible. Taferelen der voornaamste Geschiedenissen van het oude en nieuwe testament. 

La Haye, Pieter de Hondt, 1728.
More Details >
6000 €

First edition.
One of the most beautiful illustrations of the Bible in the eighteenth century.
This remarkable iconograph of the Bible in which Gérard Hoet and Bernard Picart mainly participated includes 214 full-page plates (29 double-page), the legend of which is written in Hebrew, English, German, Latin, French and Dutch.
The two frontispieces are captioned in French, the rest of the text is written in Dutch. Each chapter ends with a beautiful engraved cul-de-lampe.
This set of prints was first started by Picart in 1720 with the assistance of the Dutch painter Gérard Hoet, for what would undoubtedly become the pinnacle of the "Figures of the Bible". The Figures of the Bible are collections of engravings, which represent or signify Scripture through cycles of prints covering the entire Bible, a single Testament, or even a single biblical book. It is a genre that became popular with printing in the sixteenth century.
Pierre de Hondt, recovers the engravings of Picart, who with his multilingual legends already had a desire for European distribution, to accompany texts by Pierre Saurin (cf. Brunet). Everything is newly decorated with typographic ornaments.

Beautiful copy of Talleyrand at Chateau de Valençay with his ex libris in each volume.

Beautiful copy for this edition bringing together Massillon's sermons.
Jean-Baptiste Massillon (1663-1742) was bishop of Clermont and academician, he is often compared to Bourdaloue and Bossuet.

Voltaire, who had Le Petit Carême read to him during his meals, said of him: “The preacher who knew the world best; more flowery than Bourdaloue, more pleasant, and whose eloquence smacks of the man of the court, the academician, and the man of wit; moreover, a moderate and tolerant philosopher. ».

From a follower of the Boucicaut Master.

The painter uses an extensive palette with sharp contrasts, and does not hesitate to use a bright minium red that he contrasts with the blues and greens in the happiest of ways.
The abstract backgrounds and the systematic use of a grassy ground, give to the whole manuscript a beautiful coherence and a great elegance.

Some of the preserved paintings, such as those of the Annunciation to the Shepherds, the Crucifixion, and St. Margaret, bear witness to the artist's talent and the high quality of this manuscript.

It should be noted that the composition of the The Flight into Egypt is closely mirrors of a Boucicaut composition.

First edition.
Antoine Fusy, Jesuit and professor at the Sorbonne is at the beginning of the 17th century in breach of ban with his order. The Jesuit preachers indeed defended the merits of tyrannicide, which was an undisguised threat to the King of France who protected the Protestants of the kingdom.
While Henri IV was assassinated by a Catholic fanatic, Fusy went into exile in Geneva in 1619 and converted to Protestantism.
He wrote there this very violent pamphlet towards the Roman Church, whose style is sometimes quite raw.
