Paris: Chez L'Auteur, 1828-1833. First Edition. Hardcover. Scattered light to moderate foxing, affecting the text more than the plates; covers tight with the backstrip of the first volume largely detached. Very Good. Jaume Saint-Hilaire. Six quarto (7" x 11") volumes bound in three in contemporary calf-backed marbled boards. Illustrated with 544 plates printed in colors and finished by hand. Rare and important collection of French botany by the naturalist and artist Jaume Saint-Hilaire (1772-1845). DUNTHORNE page 4: It is not until the beginning of the nineteenth century that precise scientific drawing commences to characterize French flower plates but with the transition the French artists such as Jaume St. Hilaire, Bessa, Turpin and Redouté rose almost immediately to world pre-eminence. These names are collector's high points; NISSEN 988; PRITZEL 4404.

Paris: Baudouin Freres, 1821-1822. Third Edition. Hardcover. Foxing to text and plates, though less so to the latter; both covers detached. Good with attractive plates. Pierre Joseph Redoute. Large quarto (10" x 13-1/2") bound in contemporary red leather-backed boards, all edges gilt. Illustrated with 64 (of 65) stipple-engraved plates, printed in color and finished by hand, by Bouquet, Gabriel, and others after Pierre Joseph Redoute. NISSEN 1688; (STAFLEU) GREAT FLOWER BOOKS page 74: " This work is Redoute's last link with the ancient regime: his old patrons had all died, or like Cels, who died in 1806, had ceased to be influential. Redoute had entered easily into a new life under the Empire. On the whole, it can be said that it is remarkable how little Redoute was affected by the political and social changes that took place around him." Rousseau was an amateur botanist whose interest in the subject was heightened by his enforced exile amonts the natural beauties of Switzerland.
