French edition of this illustrated work on applied arts, showing the interesting collection of Joan d'Huyvetter (1770-1883), member of the directory board of the Academy of Fine Arts at Gent, Belgium and the Royal Academy in Amsterdam. The work shows 264 pieces of decorated (ceramic) vases, tankards, beer mugs, wine jugs, wine decanters, goblets, serving trays, dishes, clocks and stained-glass windows from the 16th & 17th century by French, German and Belgian artists. Huyvetter's work first appeared in Dutch in the same year, titled: Zeldzaamheden verzameldt en uitgegeven door Joan D'Huyvetter... Gent, 1829. (Vanderheaghen, Bibl. Gantoise IV, 7249). The lithographed portrait of D'Huyvetter was especially made for the Dutch edition as the book under is arm bears the Dutch title "Zeldzaamheden ...". The original painted portrait by P. van Huffel was made after a drawing by Madou, when D'Huyvetter was 49 of age: in 1819. The portrait was lithographed by De Wasme-Pletinckx ca. 1829 and added to the French edition somewhat later. Underneath the portrait is engraved: "Joan d'Huyvetter mort à Gand, le 11 Novembre 1833, âgé 63 ans".
