Aggiungi al carrelloBoards. Condizione: Very Good. VIII, 551, [1] (blank) pages. Plus original albumen photograph of Darwin mounted on thin board inserted before the half title (with original tissue guard still present). 8vo. 1/4 leather gilt over marbled boards. Light overall wear to the binding. Bookseller ticket (LW Schmidt, New York, German Boo…kseller) on front pastedown. Lightly browned pages, clean internally. A nice copy. Boards. The first German translation of Darwin's "Origin of the Species" was published in 1860 by the same publisher. This edition is notable for the inclusion of an albumen frontispiece of Darwin, a very early portrait. Van Wyhe's Complete Photographs of Darwin identifies this portrait as a sitting by Maull & Polyblank from 1857. This image is identified as a variant of that image, "1.1. Albumen photograph, 15.3x11.5cm, uncropped, mounted on thick paper. Below image "Phothogr. v. Buchner / Charles Darwin. / E. Schweitzerbart'sche Verlagshandlung in Stuttgart." Frontispiece to Origin 2d ed. [in German] (1863, F673)." If not the first, it was certainly among the first albumen images of Darwin to be published in a book. A nice addition to any Darwin collection. The albumen print is by Carl Johann Sigmund Buchner. Literature: Freeman, Bibliographical Handlist 2nd edition, #673 Van Wyhe's Complete Photographs of Darwin.
