Etched frontispiece, engraved portrait of Pope Clemens XI, and 6 engraved or etched plates, including one folding, and 7 engraved vignette headpieces by Ludo[vic] David after local Avignon artist Pierre Perru and Jean Cotelle II (1642-1708) ornamental painter at the court of Louis XIII, and P.D. Bassinet-Daugard (fl. 1670-1744) (some occasional minor spotting, a few leaves with minor marginal repairs and wormholes). Modern mottle calf antique, the spine decorated in six compartments with five raised bands, red morocco lettering piece in one (a bit rubbed). Provenance: The Paul and Marianne Gourary Collection of Illustrated Fete Books "Splendid Ceremonies", with their small bookplate on the front paste-down. First edition. The entrance into Avignon in 1701 of the royal brothers Louis of France (1682-1712), Duke of Burgundy, and Charles (1686-1714), Duke of Berry. Historically a catholic enclave Avignon had ruled by Popes rather than Kings of France: during the 14th century it was the official residence of Popes Clement V to Gregory XI. During the 15th-century it became the policy of the French kings to rule Avignon as part of their kingdom, and with a garrison just across the river at Villeneuves des Avignons the French were frequent invaders and occupiers. However between 1688 and 1768 was a time of relative peace with no wars or occupations, and Avignon was able to celebrate the entry of the royal Dukes with all the expected pomp and ceremony, and dedicate this book commemorating the festivities to Pope Clement XI. Seven monuments were constructed along the processional route, designed by Cotelle and Perru, each one elaborately decorated with ornaments, emblems, inscriptions, and medals. Three triumphal arches, and an equestrian statue were also erected to welcome the two ducal princes to Avignon. This copy includes the additional engraved portrait of Pope Clement XI, but is without the engraved plate of the jewels presented to the Dukes found in some copies.
