(2019). Aubin-Louis Millin (1759-1818) Le Patrimoine en questions : Anthologie pour un combat (p. 77-83). Le Seuil.&nbsp;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-variant:small-caps\">The first edition of this work, which is of great documentary value regarding French monuments, is lavishly illustrated with 250 separate copper-engraved plates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In response to the \u2018nationalisation\u2019 of \u2018national assets\u2019 by decree from 1789 onwards \u2013 which led to the dispersal, sale, alteration or destruction of numerous buildings, tombs, funerary monuments, sculptures and works of art \u2013 Aubin-Louis Millin undertook the task of cataloguing the monuments featured in this volume. In it, he brings together descriptions of numerous historic monuments through text and images, a task which required the collaboration of many engravers such as Carpentier, Blanchard, Lemercier and Desmaison.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Thus, published during the revolutionary period, Millin\u2019s work reflects a desire to conserve and preserve the memory of the nation\u2019s cultural heritage. The five volumes consequently comprise a substantial collection of descriptions and engravings devoted to royal tombs, ecclesiastical monuments, inscriptions, sculptures, stained-glass windows and architectural features from abbeys, churches, monasteries and castles that had become the property of the Nation, some of which have since disappeared, notably: the Bastille, the Convents of the Celestines, the Jacobins and the Feuillants, the Porte Saint-Bernard and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Presented to the National Assembly, his work played a major role in fostering an awareness of cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">The interior is very clean; the bindings are worn, with scuffing and chipping, wormholes, and areas where the leather is missing; one plate listed in the table of contents is missing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Provenance: Maire Libraire (stamp on the front half-cover).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>4to (255 x 198 mm).
