"Les monuments de la France, classés chronologiquement et considérés sous le rapport des faits historiques et de l'étude des arts.", Alexandre-Louis-Joseph de Laborde, Verlag Didot l'Aîné, Paris, 1816/1836. Zwei monumentale In-Folio Bände (59 x 43 x 6,5 cm, zusammen 21 kg!) in rotem Halbleder mit marmorierten Deckeln. Band 1 mit Vortitel, Titel, Frontispiz und 116 ganz-, zum Teil doppelseitigen Darstellungen von Monumenten aus der Zeit vor der römischen Besetzung und der Römerzeit, eingeteilt in 4 Epochen. Der Textteil mit ausführlichen Erklärungen zu den Abbildungen.
Band 2 mit Vortitel, Titel, 50 Seiten und 142 (statt 143; es fehlt die Tafel 184, Chateau de Josselin en Bretagne - war aber offenbar nirgends eingebunden, fehlt auch im Exemplar der Bibliothèque Nationale de France) ganz-, zum Teil doppelseitigen Darstellungen von Monumenten im byzantinischen und römischen Stil, mit Kreuzrippengewölben und im Stil der Renaissance.
Der vordere Deckel von Band 1 mittig angebrochen, das Rückenleder am Kapitale hinten auf 5cm eingerissen. Das Rückenleder von Band 2 unten auf etwa 10 cm Länge aufgeplatzt. Berieben und bestoßen. Kräftiger Druck von Text und Stichen. Durchwegs moderat stockfleckig, hauptsächlich im weißen Rand, kaum in den Illustrationen. Gedruckt auf kräftigem Bütten, die Seitenbreite um bis zu 5 mm variierend. Ein sehr schönes Exemplar dieses beeindruckenden Werks!

It contains 258 full or even double-page illustrations of monuments, from ancient roman times up to gothic and Renaissance-style cathedrals and castles. Each spine with a little tear, the cover of Vol. 1 with a crack, rubbed. Strong paper, with foxing mostly in the white margins. Strong print of excellent quality. An impressive edition!
