by (ROHAN-CHABOT, Louis Antoine Auguste, duc de)
27 pp. 8vo, 20th-cent. cloth-backed marbled boards, title on spine. Paris: Paillet & Geoffroy, [1807].
Scarce auction catalogue, with prices recorded by a contemporary annotator; we locate a single example in North American collections. Chabot (1733-1807) was a lieutenant general in the French army, he fled the Revolution in 1790, but returned to Paris two years later. The duke amassed a choice collection of drawings, prints, sculptures, and decorative arts. His paintings had been sold in December 1787 (Lugt 4230).
A very nice copy. Bookplate of Georges Pannier to the front paste-down and stamp of the Bibliothèque Heim to verso of title.
❧ Lugt 7315. (Inventory #: 10596)
