Catalogue of the pastels and drawings of the 18th century in the Jacques Doucet collection. Volume I features crisp plates of drawings and pastels set opposite French annotations. Volume II concentrates upon sculptures and paintings of the 18th century in the same layout, and Volume III deals exclusively with furniture and objets d'art. This volume contains the first two volumes of this sale bound into one volume. Therefore, it lacks the part (or volume) 3 dealing with furniture and objects d'art.
