Biography


In 1850, De Montaignon graduated as an archivist and palaeographer from the École des chartes, with a thesis entitled Essai de dictionnaire des anciens peintres français pendant le Moyen Âge et la Renaissance. He began his career as attached to the Louvre and the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal and in 1864 became secretary of the École des Chartes, with a position of substitute teacher. In 1868, at the death of Auguste Vallet de Viriville[1] the post of professor in full at the chair of bibliography and classification of archives and libraries.

His work is very diverse even as regretted Paul Meyer in his funeral oration, somewhat scattered: the printed bibliography of his work that was offered by friends report to nearly 700 numbers. His work generally related to the art history and particularly the history of literature. He was particularly a specialist in the poetry of the fifteenth, to which he devoted many studies and of which he gave important scientific or popular editions (Dolopathos, the Livre du chevalier de La Tour-Landry, the very large Recueil de poésies françoises des XVe XVIe (the nine first volumes alone, the next four with James Mayer de Rothschild), etc.)[1]

Very involved in scholarly and intellectual life of the second half of the nineteenth, he was a member of the Comité des travaux historiques, president of the "Société de l'histoire de l'art français", and a member of the Société des Antiquaires de France.

On his grave at cimetière du Père-Lachaise,[2] his friends erected a monument with his funeral mask by Sicard.
