tant, De la Richesse territoriale du Royaume de France constitue la première étude moderne des resources démographiques et économiques de la nation. Il y fait oeuvre de novateur, demande la creation d’un bureau national de la statistique et met en place une comptabilité nationale: c’est la naissance de l’économie quantitative’ (Poirier). This brief résumé, the only form in which La richesse territoriale de la France was published until the 19th century, is exceedingly rare. It is necessary to distinguish it from a facsimile reprint which was published around 1810, which was set up with the same title page, the same year of publication, but can be distinguished by the diVerence in type (see Duveen & Klickstein 264/6). Bound with the pamphlet are two broadsides and one eight-page pamphlet documenting the reports sent back to Lavoisier in response to his questionnaire which had been prepared to gather the data for his study. Duveen & Klickstein 264; Einaudi 3272; INED 2690; Mattioli 1943; not in Kress or Goldsmiths’ catalogue, but in Kress collection; for a detailed analysis see Perrot, ‘Lavoisier, l’Auteur de La Richesse territoriale du Royaume de France’ in: Un histoire intellectuelle de l’Économie Politique, 1992, pp. 377–437. National Heritage Protected by Law 69 [LAW – ART PROTECTION.] Chirografo della Santità di nostro Signore Papa Pio VII in data del primo Ottobre 1802. sulle Antichità, e Belle Arti in Roma, e nello Stato Ecclesiastico. Con editto dell’ Eo, e Rmo Signor Cardinal Giuseppe Doria Pamphili pro-Camerlengo di Santa Chiese. Rome, Lazzarini, Camera Apostolica, 1802. [Together with:] Editto dell’ Emo e Rmo Sig. Cardinal Pacca, Camerlengo di S. Chiesa sopra le Antichità, e gli Scavi, publicato li 7. Aprile 1820. Rome, Vincenzo Poggioli, Camera Apostolica, 1820. £6500 Two works; Folio, pp. 16; 14, [2] blank; both with papal arms to title page; uncut and folded, as issued; wrap-around title a little spotted (no. I) and stained (no. II), but generally very clean and crisp. First edition, very rare, of these two highly important documents, which constitute the Wrst attempt to regulate the exportation of works of art and to protect national heritage. In 1802 Pope Pius VII enacted new regulations for the Vatican in order to protect the heritage. He requested that an art registry of all kinds of immovable and movable pieces of art, belonging either to the church or to private citizens be listed, and their export prohibited. This formed the Wrst step toward cultural heritage planning and was the beginning of a comprehensive body of law preserving national heritage. The Wrst comprehensive body of laws on this subject was the edict produced by Cardinal Pacca and promulgated on 7th April 1820. It was intended to regulate the licences for digging (which despite all the attempts susanne schulz-falster rare books
paid in the past, were still out of the control of the authorities); it aimed at checking the exportations of Wne goods by introducing heavy taxes; and it formed the foundation for an inventory map of the Wne arts that had to be strictly controlled by the Vatican. It also drafted a system of administrative bodies appointed to guarantee the preservation of the heritage through a permanent committee based in Rome and other representatives spread across the territory. On the basis of this legal framework Canova argued for the restitution of antiquities and ancient masterpieces. He maintained that art and antiquities were part of a context from which they neither could nor should be removed, and that it was the context that gave them their fullest meaning.
