Lot no. 21
VICTON (François). Traicté ou recueils de l'ancien et moderne usage des canonizations des Saincts. Paris, Sébastien Cramoisy, 1634. - IDEM. Histoire ou bref traité du S. Suaire de N. S. Jesus Christ. Ibid. 1634. 2 works in one volume in-8, overlapping vellum (contemporary binding). Extremely rare first editions. These two works by the Vicar General of the Order of Minims in Piedmont and Savoy were published two years after his death by Fr Hilarion de Coste, who dedicated the first to the Count of Alais and the second to his wife, Henriette de La Guiche. The BnF has a copy of the work on the Shroud dated 1632 - the only one known, it seems - even though the theologians' approvals reproduced in the work are dated 1634. From the C. Morel library in Givors, with stamp and signature on the title. Slight scattered foxing; cut and discreet repair to f. â2; a few letters scratched on f. ê7.
