Brunet I, 1820; Goldsmith C824; Graesse II, 126. Provenance: unidentified old owner's ink stamp on title; Otto Schäfer, acquired 1982 by gift, his penciled number OS 1241 on rear endleaf; Schäfer sale Sotheby's 1995 (listing laid in loose); bought there by Quaritch for Kenneth Rapoport (his paper ex-libris label on front pastedown). Jacques de Lalaing, the "bon chevalier," a renowned jouster and military commander in the service of Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, died in 1453, aged only thirty-two, at the siege of Poeke during the Ghent War. Some twenty years after his death, the Livre des faits de Jacques de Lalaing was commissioned to record his deeds. In A Knight for the Ages: Jacques de Lalaing and the Art of Chivalry (Los Angeles: Getty Publications, 2018), Wim Blockmans places the manuscript in the context of Burgundian court culture, chivalric values, and Jacques's life and family, proposing that two fellow members of the Toison d'or, Adolph of Cleves and Anthony of Burgundy, who were at Jacques's side when he died, may even have sponsored the writing of Jacques's biography. Since the republication of Chastellain by Jean Alexandre Buchon in the 19th century, the authorship has been given to others in the ambit of the Toison d'or, notably Jean le Fèvre de Saint-Remy, first Toison d'or king of arms, and the herault Charolais. Thirteen manuscript copies of the Livre des faits survive, three fully illuminated, including J. Paul Getty Museum Ms. 114 (2016.7, see ill.), purchased in 2016 from a collateral branch of the Lalaing family, its frontispiece circa 1530 by Simon Bening showing le Fèvre at his desk writing the Livre des faits. In A Knight for the Ages Anne-Marie Legaré traces the provenance of the Getty manuscript through the branches of the Lalaing family, developing a convincing case for its most probable patron, Antoine de Lalaing, 1st Count of Hoogstraten (c. 1480-1540). This 1634 first edition, rare in institutions, is dedicated by its editor Jules Chifflet to Albert [François] de Lalain[g] [1610-1642], [7th] "Comte de Hoochstrate, Colonel d'un Regiment de hauts Allemans, pour le Service de Sa Majesté.".…
