Quatrième édition, augmentée de nouvelles planches, de ce manuel consacré aux "jardins de plaisance et de propreté" et qui contient un traité d'hydraulique. Il est illustré 49 planches en noir, la plupart dépliantes, gravées par Mariette et Chaufourier, principalement d'après les dessins de l'architecte Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Le Blond ainsi que 41 schémas dans le texte. Le Blond n'a pas que contribué à l'illustration de cet ouvrage, il semble qu'il a également participé à son plan. Cet ouvrage est sans doute le plus célèbre de ses auteurs et l'un des premiers à traiter le jardin uniquement de plaisance et non utilitaire. Il a connu de nombreuses rééditions et des traductions.

Nouvelle Edition. 25 x 20 cm. (5) Bl., 293 (1) S., (6) Bl. Mit 33 [von 38] Kupfertafeln und zahlreichen Holzschnitten und Vignetten. Die (fehlenden) 5 Tafeln (A1-A5) sind als gute Farbkopien beigefügt. Leder. Alter beschabter und beriebener Einband mit neuem Leder ergänzt. Rücken unter Verwendung des alten erneuert. Ordentlicher Zustand nach Restaurierung. Seiten teils angefleckt u. m. Eck-Knicken. Tafeln angefleckt, Ausklapptafeln m. Quetschfalten u. teils angerändert. Tafeln verso teils mit gärtnerischen Handzeichnungen in Blei. Zwei Tafeln mit amateurhafter alter Teilkolorierung. Im Titel dieses (dritten autoriserten) Drucks wird der seinerzeit berühmte (Garten)Architekt Alexandre LeBlond als Urheber genannt, der wesentlich zur Verbreitung des französischen Gartenstils außerhalb Frankreichs beitrug und unter anderem das Schloß Peterhof bei St. Petersburg schuf. Erst in späteren Auflagen wird der tatsächliche Autor, L. S. A. J. D. A. [=Le Sieur Antoine Joseph Dezallier d'Argenville] genannt, der wohl bei Le Blond Mal- und Zeichenunterricht genommen hatte. "Remains to this day the standard authority on the formal garden. It was written by d'Argenville the elder, under the instructions and supervision of the architect J.B.A. LeBlond" (Fowler). Während sich die Forschung weitgehend einig ist, dass Teile der Kupferstiche auf Le Blond zurückgehen, so ist umstritten, ob er auch an der Gesamtkonzeption dieses bedeutenden Gartenbuches mitwirkte. Es ist eines der wichtigsten Gartenbücher des 18. Jahrhunderts, das von seiner ersten Auflage 1709 bis 1771 viele Auflagen erlebte, darunter auch mehrere Raubdrucke des Verlags Husson in Den Haag. Marie Luise Gothein widmet dem Buch allein 3 Seiten in ihrer "Geschichte der Gartenkunst", vermutet aber eher Le Blond als Autor: "Niemals wieder hat ein Buch mit so klarer faßlicher Sicherheit das Wesen eines Stiles in Lehrsätze umgegossen." Auf ihre Anmerkung, dass es den Nutzgarten etwas überheblich nur am Rande erwähnt, ist zu bemerken, dass jenes Thema seit Erscheinens des Epoche machenden Werkes von La Quintinie "Instruction pour les Jardins fruitiers et potagers" (1.Aufl. 1690) umfassend bearbeitet war. Hans Formitti hat die Planungsrichtlinien d'Argenvilles analysiert und betont ".wie sehr ein solches Planungssystem heute für die Erforschung, Erhaltung und Dokumentation von architektonischen Gärten nutzbar ist." (Wien, 1981). Fowler 170 (unter Le Blond) Ganay 45, Haller II 94, Ornamentstichkat. Bln 3463. Sprache: Französisch.

Couverture rigide. Etat : Assez bon. Ce livre, dans lequel les méthodes du grand Le Notre ont été réduites à un système, reste encore aujourd hui l autorité standard sur le jardin formel. Il a été écrit par Antoine Joseph Dezallier d Argenville, QUATRIÈME ÉDITION, LA PLUS COMPLÈTE ET ILLUSTRÉE. 21 x 26 cm, 482 p, avec 49 planches dessinées par D Argenville et Le Blond, gravées en cuivre, beaucoup par Mariette, dont 40 à double page, 4 à pleine page et 5 pliées plusieurs fois. Il manque la planche n°4. Reliure veau fauve tacheté, dos à nerfs orné de caissons à fleurons, double filet dorés sur les coupes, fendu sur l avant. Un spécimen propre et assez frais à l intérieur. Etat : assez bon. « La première Edition de cet Ouvrage fut publiée en 1709, et la seconde augmentée considérablement parut quatre ans après en 1713. Des occupations sérieuses et indispensables firent perdre à l Auteur son ouvrage de vue; enfin en 1722, on vit paraître une troisième Edition avec le nom d Alexandre le Blond, à la place des premières lettres de celui de l Auteur, qui se trouvent avec des points dans la seconde Edition. Cet habile Architecte Français, mort en Moscovie en 1719, n a cependant d autre part à ce Livre que d avoir fourni les Dessins de la plus grande partie des Planches dont il est orné. On a suivi cette erreur dans les trois Editions qui ont été contrefaites à la Haye chez le Sieur Husson, et dans la traduction Anglaise qu en a faite M. James de Greenwich, dont il a paru trois Editions à Londres, la dernière en 1743. Une méprise aussi considérable a subsisté pendant plusieurs années; si-tôt que l Auteur s en aperçut,, il écrivit en Hollande, en Angleterre & aux Journalistes de France, qui publièrent sa Lettre en Avril 1739, dans laquelle il fût obligé de se déclarer l Auteur de cet Ouvrage ».

"The author was at various times Maitre de Comptes for Paris and counsellor to the King of France. A writer, naturalist, and collector, he studied architecture under Alexandre Le Blond, to whom the work has sometimes been incorrectly ascribed, drawing under Bernard Picart and painting under Roger de Piles. Dezallier describes the manner of gardening practiced by Andre Le Notre (1613-1700), who designed or redesigned the gardens of Versailles, Tuileries, and Fountainebleau. The work deals with garden design and such details as the creation of parterres, mazes, garden buildings, ornaments, and fountains. According to Henrey, Le Blond, the noted architect and designer of the Peterhof garden, did the original sketches for about three quarters of the plates, with the remainder done by the author." [Johnston] "It is especially valuable as a record of the manner of gardening as practiced by Le Notre. The original French work appeared anonymously in Paris in 1709, and in the opinion of Gothein: 'Never before did a book lay down the principles of any style so surely and so intelligibly in instructive precepts.' The popularity of the work is attested by the fact that it was published five times in Paris, three times at the Hague, and three times in London." [Henrey] Brunet II, 523. De Ganay 45.
