CARÊME, Marie-Antoine, dit Antonin (1783-1833).

Le Pâtissier pittoresque, composé et dessiné par M. A. Carême, contenant cent vingt-cinq planches gravées au trait. Paris : Firmin Didot, l’Auteur, 1815.

Édition originale d’une grande rareté, illustrée de 125 planches gravées sur cuivre. La cuisine d’apparat mise en scène comme un art total.



Le traité architectural marque l’apothéose du grand service à la française. Bien qu’autodidacte, Carême consacrait ses loisirs au Cabinet des Estampes de façon à mettre en œuvre ses pièces montées lors des fameux « extraordinaires » qui firent sa réputation sous l’Empire. Orfèvre du goût et des saveurs, il a lui-même dessiné au trait les compositions qui lui valurent d’être surnommé le Palladio de la Pâtisserie. Le catalogue collectif de France ne localise pas d’autre exemplaire que celui de la BnF. Cagle, 124 ; Vicaire, 144-145.



In-4 (258 x 162 mm). L’exemplaire est revêtu de la signature autographe de l’auteur au verso du faux titre. Illustré de 125 planches dont le titre et une dépliante, gravées par Normand et Thierry d’après Carême (piqûres et mouillures à l’ensemble du volume). Reliure pastiche : demi-maroquin vert à coins avec réemploi de gardes du XIXe siècle, dos lisse richement orné, tranches marbrées.

Provenance : sur le contreplat, épître dédicatoire à Carême, à l’encre violette, datée du 3 octobre 1837.



First edition of this set of picturesque designs to adorn tables.
