Gospels only, 16mo in 8s, pp. [2], 262; very slight toning, small stain to upper inner corner of early leaves, but a very good copy; bound in contemporary shagreen, metal clasps to fore-edge, edges gilt, red morocco doublures with borders gilt aux petits fers, double-sided gilt brocade flyleaves; superficial crack to rear joint; pressed flower inserted through front flyleaf.An attractive early Jansenist binding, with a sober shagreen exterior concealing gilt decoration within, on a copy of the Gospels extracted from Charles Huré's French New Testament. So-called Jansenist bindings, characterised by the absence of exterior decoration, emerged in the final years of Louis XIV's reign in reaction to the gratuitous glitz prevalent under the Sun King. The present example is particularly fine, not only for its external restraint with darkened metal clasps and not so much as a gilt title or turn-in visible but also for the splendour revealed inside, with richly gilt doublures and brocade flyleaves. OCLC finds only one copy outside continental Europe (NY PL). Language: French. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers C3412
