Original publishers blind- and gilt-stamped mauve cloth; extremities worn, vol. III spine with small piece missing. Ownership inscription of Osborne House, 1945. A pleasing copy. An account of the habits of non-Britis…h European birds, with brief descriptions. / "This admirable descriptive treatise furnishes the synonymy, generic characters, distribution, and habits of those birds of Europe seen outside the British Isles." Casey Wood (p. 254). / The hand-colored plates are by Benjamin Fawcett, the highly respected painter whose perfectionism served to splendid result with these plates, many of which also depict bird eggs. There are a total of 238 full-page plates (180 plates of which are hand-colored; 58 plates were printed in chromolithography, hand-finished by Benjamin Fawcett). / Charles Robert Bree was a British physician, ornithologist and zoologist, best known for his opposition to Darwin's theory of evolution. "In 1872, he authored An Exposition of the Fallacies in the Hypothesis of Mr. Darwin, which was widely criticized in academic journals." [Wikip.] His passion for birds is displayed in this lengthy and well-illustrated account of the "non"-British birds. The plates were drawn by Benjamin Fawcett.

Aggiungi al carrelloFIRST EDITION. With 238 beautiful hand-colored wood-engravings. Original blind-stamped cloth, covers with illustration and title in gilt, rebacked, new endpapers; all tissue guards present, minor foxing, overall an excellent uncut and partially unopened set with a gift inscription dated May 26, 1943 on fly-leaf of Volume 1 and a… second gift inscription dated April 19, 194? (from Celine McDade to Ben Coleman) on the fly-leaf of Volume 3. First edition, extensively illustrated with 238 beautiful hand-colored wood-engravings of continental European birds and eggs. "This admirable descriptive treatise . . . furnishes the synonymy, generic characters, distribution, and habits of those birds of Europe seen outside the British Isles" (Wood). Originally issued in 59 parts, this work was bound up with title pages varying in dates of imprint, thereby causing "considerable confusion in the dates of publication as recorded for this work" (Zimmer). This set has an early range of dates on its title pages (Volumes 1, 2 and 4 printed in 1863, Volume 3 in 1864), confirming that it is a first edition; the first edition was published continually from 1859 to 1867, and the second edition was not issued until 1875. The plates were executed by Benjamin Fawcett, whose early chromoxylographs (color-printed wood-engravings) are actually finished by hand, some almost entirely hand-colored (though the plates of eggs are clearly color-printed, but also finished by hand). Fawcett's later works in the 1870s and 80s are almost entirely color-printed, so Bree's Birds represents one of his earlier experimentations with color printing. Anker, 59; Nissen, 136; Sitwell, p. 81; Casey Wood, p. 254; Zimmer, 87-88.
