30. [Collective]. La Guirlande de Julie pour Mademoiselle de Rambouillet, Julie-Lucine d'Angènes. Written by N. Jarry, 1641. Paris, Didot le jeune, s.d. Small volume (10,5 x 13 cm), xix p., 3 to 78 p. Half tan calf, spine with ornamented nerves, title page. This work is a modest reprint of the Guirlande de Julie, a famous 17th century French poetic manuscript kept in the Bibliothèque nationale de France. In 1641, Julie-Lucine d'Angènes received from her future husband, Charles de Sainte-Maure, future marquis de Montausier, the Guirlande de Julie. It was a collection of 62 madrigals composed by about twenty famous poets of the time, including Desmarets, Georges de Scudéry and Charles de Sainte-Maure. The text was calligraphed by Nicolas Jarry. Each madrigal was named after a flower, representing a quality of Julie, and was illustrated with a painting by Nicolas Robert. The work was splendidly bound by Le Gascon. The present work is less sumptuous but still features 32 plates of flowers engraved in black. A few small freckles. The first leaf (pages 1 and 2) is missing after the introductory leaves.
