Description:
Five hundred years after the historic French seaport of Le Havre was established, TASCHEN presents a facsimile reproduction of Les premières œuvres de Jacques Devaulx, pilote en la marine, first published by Le Havre-born "Naval Pilot to the King" Jacques Devaulx in 1583. This extraordinary illuminated manuscript, dedicated to the Duke of Joyeuse, collates nautical, astronomical, and cartographic ideas as well as Devaulx's own extensive notes, observations, and records as a seafarer, hydrographer, cosmographer, and cartographer.An encyclopedic reference for sailors, as well as a magnificent maritime showpiece for his royal employers, the elaborately annotated and decorated folios are a repertoire of naval and cosmographic tools and techniques, including astrolabes, nautical charts of the Atlantic Ocean, tabular statements of diurnal tides, astrological charts, and measurements for solar altitude. They also gather Devaulx's volvelles, wheel charts made of rotating parts that are today considered an early example of the paper analog computer. Together, the folios encapsulate the state of knowledge at a time when sailors pushed the limits of sea exploration and offer a glimpse into the practical daily requirements of Renaissance seafaring.This edition of Devaulx's stunning document, produced in collaboration with the Bibliothèque nationale de France, reproduces each of the 31 folios in all their brilliant art and science, including the original colorful illuminations, in particular the volvelles. The volume features essays by Jean-Yves Sarazin and Gerhard Holzer,

Doesn’t work
Did not take off the self tanner whatsoever. I even used it every time I took a shower for a full week just trying to scrub off the tan & nothing. I don’t recommend if you’re desperate to take self tanner off.

Great Exfoliator
Purchased this to help remove self tanner and help prep my skin to reapply self tanner. It is great for exfoliating your skin prepping for the next round of self tanner. It doesn't help much with removing self tanner. I have used it in the shower as well as soaked in the tub before using it and that didn't make much different. Shaving removes more self tanner than this self tanner removal. I was hoping for much better results but sadly after using several times different ways the result is minimal removal.
