Commentary


Buste exceptionnel à la légende très particulière qui a certainement été gravé spécialement pour cette Chambre de commerce. Feuardent ne cite pas ce buste dans ses planches mais le cite dans le texte comme étant un buste varié
Les juridictions consulaires remontent à Henri II. Dans ces lieux de réunions, les marchands élisent entre eux un prieur et deux juges-consuls qui règlent en première instance les problèmes entre négociants. Les juges-consuls ou juges des tribunaux de commerce sont établis par un édit de 1563. Ils étaient souvent d’anciens consuls (officiers municipaux) d’où leur nom. Au XVIIIe siècle, les juges-consuls jugeaient souverainement jusqu’à 500 livres (au-delà, l’affaire relevait des Parlements) Les commissaires étaient hiérarchisés en Prieur, Président, Juges Consuls, assistants, et éventuellement un Procureur Syndic avec des négociants représentants chaque corps de métier.

Historical background


CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE / CHAMBRES DE COMMERCE

The first chamber of commerce was that of Marseille, created at the end of the 16th century. For Paris, the six corps of merchants and the judge-consuls had a role similar to that of a chamber of commerce: an association of merchants gathered to deliberate on the interests of their city or region and to give their opinion to the government. Colbert legalizes them in 1664 by establishing that each place of commerce will choose two of them to represent them. However, the institution was not really established until the decision of the Council of August 30, 1701, and many chambers of commerce appeared in the 18th century in Lyon, Rouen, Toulouse, Montpellier, Bordeaux, etc. The most important of them is Marseilles which had attributions in all the trade of Levant and was of the department of Foreign Affairs, the others concerned the General control of Finances. Abolished by the Constituent Assembly in 1791, the chambers of commerce were re-established under the Consulate. Since 1832, their recruitment is done by elections, they have become chambers of commerce and industry since 1898, grouped into 21 regional chambers.
