La Barre de Beaumarchais (Ant.). Aventures de Don Antonio de Buffalis, histoire italienne enrichie de figures en taille-douce. La Haye, chez J. Néaulme, 1722 or 1724, 12mo., 6 indifferent plates, not signed (4.8.).

La Barre de Beaumarchais (Ant.). Le Temple des Muses, orné de LX. Tableaux où sont representés les Evénements les plus remarquables de l'Antiquité fabuleuse, dessinés et gravés par B. Picart le Romain et autres habiles maîtres, et accompagnés d'explications et de remarques (par de La Barre de Beaumarchais), etc. Amsterdam, Zacharie Châtelain, 1733, folio, 60 plates, fleuron on title and an escutcheon vignette containing the arms of the Elector of Mayence by B. Picart (15s., and double in morocco).

Picart's plates are, with slight alterations, copied from those executed by Diepenbecke for the "Temple des Muses" of 1655, with text by Michel de Marolles. The Dutch edition of 1731 contains the first impressions. Reprinted 1742 and 1749. Morel de Vindé's copy of the 1731 edition, with the 25 rejected plates by Diepenbecke before the numbers, including the rare plate of "Salmacis et Hermaphrodite " by Bloemaert, and the portraits of Diepenbecke and Picart, inserted, realized 810 francs.; Béhague's copy in red morocco, 610 frs.; R. Lion's copy in citron morocco, 230 frs. ; a copy of the 1742 edition, in green morocco with the arms of Montmorency-Luxembourg, brought in the same sale 445 frs. All these prices are the more misleading, as the book is very little in request now. Of course stress should be laid on the bibliopegistic beauty, which formed the main attraction of the several copies in question.
