Description / Information:
In virtually as new condition throughout. Large format book 289 pages with stunning high quality colour reproductions of plates from the Curtis Botanical Magazine. The majority are from 1787 to 1820. Contains appendix of Botanists and Gardeners and an introduction to the Botanical Magazine. The magazine was founded in 1787 by William Curtis and has continued publication to the present day. 'The reputation of the magazine has always resided in the accuracy of its portrayal of plants'. Curtis' principal artists were William Kilburn + James Sowerby and Sydenham T. Edwards. These skilled artists worked with him for 28 years, and it was they who were responsible for most of the plates that appeared in the magazine. From October 1834 Walter Fitch became the main artist a post that he would hold for 40 years. 'In the confident hands of a botanical artist like W.H. Fitch lithographs have an immediacy and spontaneity encountered usually only in original works of art'. Magnificent cream boards - very clean.
