About This Item
Au Bureau des Publications, [1875]. First Edition. Hardback. Near Fine/No Jacket. First and only edition. This publication brings together the four parts and comprises 4 title pages (with no plate number) and 120 numbered plates (2 double plates counted as 2 plate numbers), all correct and as published. Intermittent light spotting to a few of the plates (about 6, and limited to the rear). Original dark grey cloth lettered in gilt and decorated in blind, very minor bumping to corners, and a small marginal damp stain to 1 cm of fore-edge. A fine survey of 19th-century ornamental French ironwork. The four parts are titled, respectively, "La Serrurerie Moderne. Grilles. Balcons. Marquises. Serres. Clotures. Panneaux de Portes. Ornements", "Nouveaux Travaux exécutés dans les Quartiers neufs", "Constructions en tous Genres Exécutées d' après les Dessins des principaux Architectes ou Ingenieurs. Combles pour Magasins, Ateliers, Hangards etc. etc" and "Marquises. Verhendas. Charpentes. Planchers. Combles. Escaliers. Galeries. Marchés." Very few copies seem to have survived and this work is rare in the market, this being undoubtedly one of the finest examples to survive.
