Catalog based on a thematic plan, with the number of volumes, format and location in the library indicated for each work. A member of the Paris Parlement in 1735, Michel Larcher became maître des requêtes in 1741. One of his cousins had married the Marquis de Paulmy and Comte d'Argenson, Marc-Pierre de Voyer. List of works acquired by the Marquis d'Arcy Michel-François-Louis Larcher (1754-1804), son of the former. Around ten pages, mostly double-sided, for books generally published in the years 1770-1800. The Marquis held no public office, and devoted his life to managing his Burgundian estate. Acquired by the Count of Antioche, Alphonse-Charles de Brotty (1813-1882), and kept at the Château de Sélore, Saône-et-Loire. Some fifteen double-sided pages. The drafting of this catalog, which began in 1872, was interrupted before completion. Alphonse-Charles de Brotty had inherited the estate from his sister, Françoise-Gabrielle Céline de Brotty, second wife of Georges Thomé de Saint-Cyr, himself second husband of Sophie Jacquelin-Dulphé, who had first been the wife of the Marquis d'Arcy, Michel-François-Louis Larcher. Bound with the arms of Michel Larcher (iron missing from OHR). Attached is a drawing of a château plan (18th or early 19th century, ink and pen with brown wash highlights, approx. 32x7.5cm with cut-outs).
