GRINGORE, Pierre. Les menus propos. Paris: Philippe Le Noir, 1522. 8° (157 x 100mm). Large woodcut on title with Gringore’s device of ‘La Mére Sotte’, 36 large woodcuts. (Lacking a2, some soiling, small stains, some margins cropped.) 19th-century red straight-grained morocco gilt (lightly rubbed). Provenance: early annotations and inscription on title – shelf mark label on spine and endpaper.
A VERY RARE WORK. Second edition, printed just a year after the first. 'The woodcuts are remarkably strong and imaginative in composition’ (Mortimer). While the blocks were cut by several hands, the designs for the full set may be attributed to Gabriel Salmon who also illustrated Gringore’s Heures de nostre dame. Only a defective copy of the first edition is recorded at auction in ABPC/AE online. Brunet II, 1751: 'édition copiée page pour page sur la précédente mais en plus petits caractères'; cf. Mortimer Harvard French, 258 (1528 edition).
