Description
[COLLECTIVE]. A collection of the most curious pieces produced during the reign. By the Constable, M. de Luyne. [No place], 1623. In-12 (16 x 8 cm). Marbled calfskin, plain spine with gilt decoration, gilt title label and fleurons. Red edges. Contemporary binding. 19 unnumbered folios and 516 pages. Binding scuffed; upper caps and corners damaged. Second edition, revised and corrected, of this famous collection of anti-Luynes pamphlets published with the support of Richelieu. Indeed, the Duke of Luynes, a favourite of Louis XIII, enjoyed a rapid rise to the highest echelons of the state, a rise which earned him many enemies who saw him as a second Concini. The extremely rare first edition was published in 1622. Essential documents on the early years of Louis XIII’s reign.
