Important et célèbre recueil de gravures de Pérelle. Bel exemplaire, plus riche qu’à l’accoutumée, provenant des bibliothèques Rattier et Héron de Villefosse. L'essentiel de l'œuvre gravé de Gabriel Pérelle est consacré à Paris et sa région, avec un goût tout particulier pour les demeures princières. Aidé de son fils Adam, il a réalisé plusieurs centaines de gravures au pittoresque et à la densité caractéristiques.
Outre de nombreuses vues de monuments de Paris, du château de Versailles et de ses jardins ainsi que d’autres demeures princières, parmi lesquelles Chantilly, Fontainebleau, Saint-Germain en Laye et Vaux-le-Vicomte, le présent exemplaires comprend également trente vues de Rome, incluant Saint-Pierre, le Capitole, le Colisée et la fontaine de Tivoli.
Il provient de la bibliothèque de Léon Rattier, sous-préfet de la Somme et important collectionneur, qui possédait le château de Jeand’heurs (Meuse). Edmond de Goncourt, qui séjournait régulièrement au château, ne tarissait pas d’éloges sur « un parc qui rappelle en grand le Petit Trianon, et dans lequel coule une vraie rivière, une cour d’honneur digne d’un Marly, des amas de curiosités, parmi lesquelles il y a une collection de livres et de reliures qui vaut plus d’un million » (Journal. Paris : Charpentier, 1891, V, p. 337). L’exemplaire passa ensuite dans la collection de René Héron de Villefosse, chartiste et conservateur de musées spécialisé dans l’histoire de Paris et de sa région. Brunet IV, col. 494 ; Graesse, V-200 ; Soultrait, XVIIe, II, n°230.

In-4 oblong (285 x 370 mm). Recueil composite, comprenant, au total 6 pages de titre, 2 planches dépliantes et 423 planches, de divers formats, la plupart à pleine page. Reliure signée de Allô en maroquin grenat, tranches dorées (rares rousseurs, quelques frottements à la reliure). Provenance : ex-libris de Léon Rattier (1824-1902), sa vente, première partie, Paris, juin 1920 (n°265) – ex-libris de René Héron de Villefosse (1903-1985).

Extensive copy of this famous album of engraved plates, mostly depicting views of Paris landmarks, Versailles and its gardens and other important princely domains, also containing thirty plates of Rome.
