Book Description
As surprising as it may seem, the collections of "Monsieur," brother of Louis XIV, and of his family, have never been studied in depth. And yet, these collections of silver metalwork, jewelry, art objects, cameos, and precious stones were the most spectacular and varied of the Ancien REgime. Thanks to the generous cooperation of the OrlEans family, who granted access to its family archives, and to the research carried out by Paul Micio in France, Spain, and England, this exhaustive study traces these unique collections belonging to this important family from the Renaissance to the end of the 18th century. Featuring hundreds of images of paintings, designs, engravings, table setting plans, jewelry, silver, art objects, mounted porcelains, and hardstones, this volume will be of interest to scholars and amateurs alike and is a key reference work on French Decorative Art of the 17th and 18th centuries. It is accompanied by a CD containing 500 pages of archival material and never-before published documents.

Book Description
Excerpt from L'Orfèvrerie Française aux Xviiie Et Xixe Siècles (1700-1900) Ne nous batons pas de medire de notre temps. Assurement, il faut deplorer que, dans le bouleversement des idees et des choses, l'art et les metiers aient ete violemment separes par un divorce dont les consequences ont ete si facheuses. Mais quand on fait la part des causes superieures, et pour ainsi dire fatales, qui ont amene la transformation des conditions du travail, on comprend que des dirce tions nouvelles s'imposaient a l'industrie qui devait forcement changer de carac tere et d'objectif pour repondre a des necessites sociales completement nou velles.

Book Description
"La collection d’orfèvrerie moderne du Louvre, qui compte près de 900 objets exécutés entre 1500 et 1800 en France et en Europe, s’impose par son ampleur exceptionnelle. Sa lente constitution fait d’elle sans aucun doute la plus belle collection au monde, témoignant d’une longue histoire née dans les collections royales, ravivée par le goût des amateurs du xixe siècle et prolongée jusqu’à ce jour par la volonté des conservateurs du musée et la générosité des plus grands mécènes"--
