Costumes militaires français. Paris: Clément and London: E. Gambart, [c. 1830-60].
A magnificent monument of French military costume from 1439 to 1815, comprising 450 hand-coloured lithographed plates, complete with all text. A bright and fresh copy of this definitive guide to French military costume through the end of the Napoleonic Wars, with explanatory text. The plates were lithographed by André and Gustave David after designs by Noirmont and Marbot; each plate is vividly hand-coloured. Rare at auction, and more commonly encountered incomplete. Bobins III, 1150; Colas 1970; Lipperheide Qk 37 & Qk 39.
Three volumes, folio (440 x 309mm). Half-titles, lithographed titles and 450 lithographs, coloured by a contemporary hand and heightened with gum arabic, numbered 1-300 (vols. 1 & 2) and 1-150 (vol. 3) (light scattered spotting and marginal finger-soiling, most heavily affecting text pages at beginning of volumes, vol. 3 with plates 62-4 numbered in pencil and pl. 103 with pl. number rubbed out, images overall fresh). Later burgundy half pebble-grain calf gilt, royal blue cloth, spines lettered and decorated in gilt (extremities lightly rubbed, small repair to cover of vol. 2). Provenance: Bibliotèque Louis Becker (bookplate).
