Projets d'architecture et autres productions de cet art, qui ont mérités les grands prix accordés par l'Académie, par l'Institut national de France, et par des jurys du choix des artistes ou du gouvernment. Prix.

Gravés et publiés par Allais, Détournelle et Vaudoyer, A Paris. M.DCCC.VI.' BAL, Early printed books, no. 12.
Copy Notes Copy 1: Imperfect; wanting printed title. Etched title-plate inscribed in pencil [2 letters?] -- 4.0.

Salmon, marchand d'estampes, 7 Boulevard Montmartre for 80 Fr. on 9 September 1819, but the item in question cannot be securely identified with this copy or indeed this collection of plates by Détournelle. (Priv. Corr. XVI.B.4.2).

Plate I is entitled 'Méthode De Charpente Selon Philibert Delorme Architecte français Vivant au milieu du 16.me Siecle', with the imprint 'Se Vend chez l'Auteur le C.n Detournelle rue de la Lourdier N.o 206. A Paris.' which has been corrected in ink to 'rue du Theatre français 5'. This plate has the following statement of legal deposit: 'Déposé a la Bibliotheque Nationale le 16 florial An 8 [1800]'. Pl. II is a 'Projet d'un Manége couvert selon Philibert Delorme'. Both these plates are on Dutch paper (Van der Ley), and are uncoloured. The 48 Grands prix plates and the two by Detournelle may have been acquired in sheets along with the 42 plates of the earlier Collection (q.v.) for £2 5s. on 23 February 1803. (SNB 53).
