Archivist, curator, draughtsman and engraver, De Laborde (1807 - 1869) was the son of count (Louis-Joseph-) Alexandre de Laborde and Marie-Anne-Thérèse de Sabatier de Cabre. His family was for generations associated with government public-service appointments. His grandfather, Jean Joseph de Laborde was a Privy Councillor and banker to Louis XV (and guillotined in 1794). Alexandre de Laborde was a Privy Councillor and deputy for the Seine and Oise district. Léon de Laborde's education also focused on a political career. In 1824 his father lost his assignment and he and his seventeen-year-old son traveled throughout the Middle East, from Damascus to Cairo. There Léon met the engineer Louis Linant de Bellefonds (1799-1883) The two Frenchmen decided to set up an expedition to the newly-discovered site of Petra with a view to making drawings of the monuments. The team of Linant and de Laborde spent more time at the site than any previous Western visitors, documenting the remains through drawings. After his return, De Laborde served as an embassy secretary in Rome, London, and Cassel. In 1830 he published a detailed day-to-day report of his 1828 travel, Voyage de l'Arabie Pétrée, richly illustrated with lithographs of his own drawings as well as a number of those by Linant. It includes various maps and plans, and an introductory essay on different aspects of the region, such as travel, pilgrimage, and trade. An engraver himself, he wrote a study on the history of mezzotint engraving, Histoire de la gravure en manière noire (1839) and another on the discovery of printing, Nouvelles recherches sur la découverte de l'imprimerie (1840). In 1841 he was elected Deputy of the town of Étampes, succeeding his father. He married Louise-Félicie Cousin-Corbin. In 1842 he was elected a member of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres. In 1847 he was appointed curator of the Department of Antiquities at the Louvre, and a year later he became the curator of the collections of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. His research of the archives of Burgundy led to important art historical studies covering the period 1384-1482. Among these, his three-volume publication on the dukes of Burgundy, Les ducs de Bourgogne (1849-1852) deserves to be singled out. His pioneering study on sixteenth-century French Renaissance painting (1850 and 1855), La renaissance des arts à la cour de France, is also based on archival sources. De Laborde was involved in the contemporary art scene, such as the 1851 London World's Fair and the 1855 Paris Exposition Universelle. In 1857 he was appointed general director of the Archives de l'Empire. In 1868, the year before he died, he became a member of the Senate. A son, Alexandre-Léon-Joseph (1853-1944), was a specialist of illuminated manuscripts. Laborde is among the first western explorers of the region around Petra. #34570.

FIRST ENGLISH EDITION. 8vo. (21.5 x 13.5 cm). pp.xxviii+331+[1]. Contemporary full tan calf, sides ruled with gilt fillets, spine with raised bands and richly gilt in compartments, burgundy morocco label lettered in gilt, marbled endpapers and edges. Complete as called for with 65 illustrations comprising engraved plates, vignettes in the text, and a folding map. Some very light rubbing to corners and edges, contents remarkably clean and fresh, generally an very nice, handsome copy. First English edition of "an important work" (Blackmer), first published in French in 1830. "Laborde travelled with the well known Linant de Bellefonds, who at the time was in service with Mehmet Ali as an hydraulic engineer. They set out from Cairo in Febrary 1828, where Laborde had established himself after his long journey in Asia Minor and Syria (1826-7), and made their way to Petra via Suez and Mt. Sinai. Both Burckhardt and Irby and Mangles had Explored Petra before Laborde, but Laborde was the first to be able to make plans, views and maps of the area. An important work. The plates are after drawings by both Linant de Bellefonds abd Laborde" (Blackmer). (Cf. Blackmer, 929).

The first edition of this "important work" (Blackmer): a monumental folio, beautifully bound by René Simier (1772-1843) for King Louis-Philippe of France, from whose library it came into the hands of the great art collector and founder of the French branch of Rothschilds, Baron James de Rothschild.The volume is complete with all the magnificent views in large folio format; all subsequent editions, including the English one, were published in octavo and retained only a few plates of the original edition, all considerably reduced in size. The work was published following the trip undertaken by the Marquis Léon de Laborde (1807-69), and remained famous in particular for its views of Petra and its Khazneh. Laborde made the journey to Petra with the engineer Linant de Bellefonds in 1828, travelling from Suez via St. Catherine's and through Wadi al-Araba to Akabah. Although Burckhardt, Irby and Mangles had explored Petra before Laborde, he was the first to make detailed drawings of the area.Born in Frankfurt under the Holy Roman Empire, James de Rothschild initially moved to Paris to aid his brother Nathan Mayer Rothschild's business there; shortly, he established himself and his family at the heart of France's industrial revolution, and charted a steady course through the upheavals of 19th century French politics. Elevated to the status of Baron, his interest in art was genuine, and his collection well-respected.A beautiful text with an important provenance: bound for King Louis-Philippe of France. Latterly in the collection of the banker James Mayer Rothschild (1792-1868), founder of the French branch of the prominent Rothschild family.With the armorial bookplate of James de Rothschild and label of the Château de Ferrières on the front pastedown. Marbled paper subtly and professionally recovered at an early stage.

First Edition. 17 x 26.5 cm. 8vo. Hardcover. 83 pp. with 5 plates (of which 3 are folding). Contemporary beige quarter calf, patterned brown cloth sides, gilt armorial device of the Duc d'Arenberg on both covers. Slight wear to spine. Slight foxing throughout. Very significant documentation of Gutenberg in Strassburg, the most important being the first and most important reproductions documents given at the memorable trial of 1439, in which Gutenberg himself was plaintiff. The text of the lawsuit are reprinted "verbatini et literatim" from the ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS (now destroyed) with a French translation. Also included are reproductions of the WATERMARKS of said documents. All of these precious documents were incinerated during the Prussian bombardment of Strassburg in 1870. Our special copy comes from the libraries of the Duke d'Arenberg and Bernard Breslauer, and contains two extra plates not found in ordinary copies. These handsome full-page plates are stylized reproductions of the woodcuts that were utilized as models for the steel engravings on pp. 16 and 17. "Whereas Laborde's conclusions have in great part been superseded, these excellent and faithful reproductions will always possess a high historical interest. [.] The work opens with a bibliographical essay on the hypotheses of previous writers, and concludes with the results arrived at by the author himself. These are: That 1410 is the probable date of the discovery of printing in the Low Countries; that 1423 is that of the invention of movable types, by "Lorenz Coster," at Haarlem; that 1436 is the authentic date of the first experiments of Gutenberg at Strasbourg ; and that 1452 is the certain date of the invention, by Gutenberg, of cast types at Mayence (sic). The rest of the book is occupied by an attempt to establish these theses, and there are many facsimiles of type and woodcuts." (Bigmore & Wyman I, 410). According to Pierce Butler, Laborde's work is "of permanent historical scholarly value." ("The Gutenberg Celebration of 1940: A Survey of the Literature" in: Library Quarterly, vol. 13, no. 1, p. 64). This sentiment is shared by Frederick Goff, who described Laborde's work as "valuable for us since it contains lithographic facsimiles of several of the important passages in the testimonies of the lawsuit, then extant, which is the nearest thing we have to the original documents." (Review of Otto Fuhrmann's "Gutenberg and the Strasbourg Documents of 1439" in PBSA, vol. 35, no. 1, pp. 76-7. Fuhrmann relied heavily on the present work, and reproduced all of Laborde's illustrations and transcriptions). Laborde transcribed (not without errors) the texts of the lawsuit of Strassburg resident Jerge Dritzehen against Gutenberg; these were derived from six entries in different parts of three several manuscript registers in the city of Strassburg. According to Laborde, the first of these were written in a volume (described by later scholars as "Vol. A") which consisted of two quires, each of 42 sheets or 84 leaves in total; they were covered by a sheet of parchment which had become yellow and soiled; on the recto was written "Dicta. Testium magni consilij Anno Domini M.CCC. Tricesimo noni." The paper, which had turned yellow and brown on the edge, measured 10 x 9 inches. The second volume ("Vol. B") was bound in parchment and consisted of 24 sheets, or 48 leaves of paper, sewn together, 43 of the leaves being written upon. According to Laborde, everything connected with the 1439 Lawsuit was written by the same scribe. Laborde's three illustrations of the watermarks (two different bull's head and one balance) were printed in sepia; the excellent facsimiles of eleven different passages from the Lawsuit were made from lithographic tracings. All were published here for the first time. The Marquis de Laborde (1807-1869) studied at Gottingen and afterwards travelled extensively in the East. He subsequently held several diplomatic positions, and was curator of the antiquities in the Louvre from 1848 to 1854, and director of the Archives of the Empire from 1856 until his death. He wrote extensively on archeology, art, printing, and engraving. From the library of the great Belgian bibliophile Prosper-Louis, duc d'Arenberg, d'Arschot et de Croy (1785-1878) for whom see Jonghe d'Ardoye et al., Armorial Belge du Bibliophile (1930), p. 645 (with reproduction of the armorial device). -- subsequently in the famed bibliographical library of B.H. Breslauer (Bibliotheca Bibliographica Breslaueriana, Christie's NY 6/27/2005, lot 1235). Whereas other copies are currently available on the market, none are better than ours in terms of condition, binding, and provenance.
