Complete two volumes: Plane Geometry (1866) and Geometry of Space (in two parts joined: 1869 and 1870).
Louis Félix Painvin (1826-1875), an associate professor of mathematics, practiced at the Lycée de Douai, a city where he had these principles of analytic geometry printed.
Fine paper printing is like a handwritten course, which makes it easy to insert figures and equations into the text.
In 1872, Painvin replaced Darboux at Lycée Louis Le Grand.

Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.

It's in this work that Dupin use for the first time the word "Cyclid" and give the demonstration of their existance and their main properties.
