AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The four plates illustrate different phases of foil combat from the French school of the 18th century, with figures in period costume (tricorne hat, justaucorps, culottes). The original captions in French are still legible:
• Table 1: Fig. 18 / Fig. 19 - "quarte, de seconde, et du demi cercle" - parries of the fourth, second, and half-circle
• Table 2: Fig. 28 / Fig. 30 - "de la riposte de prime, du coupé" - first riposte and a cut
• Table 3: Fig. 36 / Fig. 37 - "du desarmement sur le coup" - disarming on the strike
• Table 4: Pl. 10 / Fig. 42 - affondo e parata - thrust (lunge) and parry
Originals engraved by Robert Bénard on drawings by Domenico Angelo Malevolti Tremamondo (Livornese fencing master, L'École des Armes 1763), later inserted into the Encyclopédie.
These are vintage decorative reproductions, NOT original 18th-century engravings.
