SOLLEYSEL, Jacques de. *Le Parfait Marechal*. Paris: Published by Didot, Nyon Fils, Damonneville, Savoye, 1754. In-4 (26 x 19 cm), marbled sheepskin, ribbed spine decorated with panels. Red edges. 2 ff. 512-(7) pp. — 406 pp. 1 f. unnumbered (privileges) Scuffs, cap ends worn down. Interior yellowed, scattered foxing. A new quarto edition published in Paris of this classic work on equine science, complete in two quarto volumes bound as one, opens with a beautiful intaglio-engraved frontispiece title page. Illustrated with a fold-out plate on diseases, a plate known as the “exterior plate,” and 25 figures (woodcuts), including 8 full-page plates and 17 in the text. In 1664, Jacques de Solleysel (1617–1680) published *Le Parfait Mareschal*, which he subsequently revised and corrected. This work, dealing primarily with equine medicine and surgery, brought Solleysel great renown, so much so that, to reward him for his talent, Louis XIV appointed him ordinary equerry of the King’s Grand Stables in 1664.
