Aggiungi al carrelloFirst editions; folio (30.5 x 24 cm); 54 hand-coloured plates of which 4 are folding, original blue wrappers of each part bound in at the rear, a little light toning and spotting to the contents; late 19th century brown, morocco-patterned roan, spine gilt in compartments with circular tools, marbled sides and endpapers, binding…rubbed with wear at the extremities, very good condition. The complete set of 'one of the most beautiful publications devoted to Crustacea' (Biodiversity Heritage Library), with the original wrappers for each part bound in. Though trained in medicine, William Elford Leach (1791-1836) never worked as a physician, but instead joined the British Museum as a naturalist. 'Although Leach's interests ranged over many groups of animals, he soon developed a passion for entomology and malacology. He was an enthusiastic collector of British insects who greatly enriched the entomological collections at the British Museum, and whose knowledge of the Crustacea was regarded as superior to that of any other naturalist of his time' (Oxford Dictionary of National Biography). The artist James Sowerby (1787-1871) was both a naturalist and the leading natural history artist of the period and, 'although responsible for the description of many taxa, his main contribution to natural history had been "the portraits of natural objects he has left behind him. delineated faithfully from. acquaintance with their form and structure" (W. Sowerby, cited in Simpkins, 393), "which no pencil or burin, but those of a scientific artist could possibly accomplish"' (Buckland, cited in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography).

Aggiungi al carrelloFIRST EDITIONS. 245 x 153 mm. (9 3/4 x 6"). 15 volumes bound in 5; four additional volumes loose without boards. . Early 19th century red half calf over marbled paper boards, raised bands, spines with gilt-stamped fleurons, tan and black morocco labels, top edge gilt. WITH A TOTAL OF 1,363 COLOR PLATES by James Sowerby, most han…d-colored. Volumes I-XV with an ink ownership inscription to the title of Harriett Ellison, dated 97 (presumably 1897); the first volume additionally with the armorial bookplate of H. Richardson on the front pastedown and an ink inscription on the flyleaf describing the 1890 purchase of the book by Thomas Richardson, Chemist. Volumes XX, XXVIII, XXXI, and XXXII with "Inner Temple" ink stamps throughout. Nissen, BBI 2225; Henrey 1366; Hunt 717. Four volumes loose, one volume with rear board detached, bindings scuffed, dried and abraded, but generally in decent condition. The four loose volumes with (mostly light) dampstains throughout; the other five quite fresh and clean internally, with ample margins and only trivial defects. This work contains numerous attractive plates that testify to the quality and charm of English botanical illustrations at the turn of the 19th century. James Sowerby (1757-1822) studied painting at the Royal Academy and earned his living painting portraits until disenchantment with the need to please the vanity of his subjects led him to turn instead to plants. (They never complained.) He worked with William Curtis on his "Flora Londinensis" and "Botanical Magazine" before striking out on his own. He met botanist Sir James Edward Smith (1759-1828) through his brother-in-law, and proposed the project that became "English Botany," with Smith providing the letterpress and Sowerby nearly all of the engravings, which are the chief attraction here. "English Botany" was a success from the appearance of the first issue, with the plates receiving the lion's share of the praise. This collection includes volumes I-XV, XX, XXVIII, XXXI, and XXXII. At less than $3 per plate, it is meant to be attractively priced.
