  1. A rare work on architecture on the eve of the Italian campaign
    Recueil d'architecture, dessiné et mesuré en Italie, dans les années 1791, 92 et 93
    François-Léonard SCHUELT

    Recueil d'architecture, dessiné et mesuré en Italie, dans les années 1791, 92 et 93[Collection of Architecture, Drawn and Measured in Italy in the Years 1791, 92 and 93.]

    L'Imprimerie de Didot le jeune • Bance aîné|Paris 1821|36.5 x 55 cm|Relié

    First edition of this architectural collection, published in Paris in 1821 by Bance aîné and comprising seventy-two numbered etched plates. These are preceded by two distinct preliminary elements: a letterpress title page giving the author’s name as “Schuelt”, and a fully engraved title with a vignette signed by Henry J. Picou, retaining the earlier title Recueil de divers motifs d’architecture and spelling the name “Seheult”. The coexistence of these forms reflects the historical instability of the family name, which was only gradually standardised as Seheult through subsequent civil-status corrections.
