Description
38 pp. 8vo (200 x 125 mm.), orig. rose printed wrappers (some tape repairs & spine worn), stitched as issued. Paris: Elie & Bonnefond de Sarial, 1818. A scarce sale catalogue, in its original wrappers, consisting of 108 lots of mostly paintings, with a handful of drawings and prints. Administered by Elie (n.d.), who was part of the generation of experts that filled the vacuum caused by the deaths of Jean Baptiste Pierre Lebrun in 1813 and Alexandre Joseph Paillet in 1814. Trained as a painter, Elie started his activities as a picture dealer at the beginning of the century. Between 1801 and 1810, records show that he organized 13 paintings sales. The present catalogue describes paintings by Guercino, Titian, Molnaert, Boilly, Marguérite Gérard, Swagers, Senave, Drolling, Teniers père, etc. Many of the entries are lengthy and informative. A nice copy; some wear to the upper wrapper. With addressee inscribed on the upper wrapper. We locate no copy of this catalogue in North America. ❧ Lugt 9281. B. Fredericksen & B. Peronnet eds., Répertoire des tableaux vendus en France au XIXe siècle, Vol. I, pp. xvii & xix.

1818. London: Printed for Sherwood, Neeley and Jones, 1818. 8vo, xii, 190, (1) pp. complete with addenda and publisher's catalogue on terminal leaf. An untrimmed copy in a sympathetic modern binding of half calf with backstrip lettered in gilt and brown cloth sides. Some staining and what even may be charring to the outer margins which is more curious than offensive. Very good. § Second edition. The legal underpinnings of the auction business in England with sections on the qualifications, rights, and responsibilities of auctioneers, buying-in, duties, and the illegality of "puffing" (the use of stooge bidders). "To which is added a comprehensive summary of the Law of Distress: with an appendix of precedents, and a copious index." OCLC records only three copies, although as it is a likely book to have been bound in sammelbands there are probably others. By the author of Every Man His Own Lawyer (1812). "The following work is the offspring of necessity. The inconveniences and difficulties, not to say losses and penalties to which the Author, in the course of his professional duties, has observed persons exercising the occupation of Auctioneers exposed, first suggested the publication of the ensuing sheets.
