Karnac lithograph after David Roberts.<ul><li>Lithograph by Louis Haghe, after painting by David Roberts.</li><li>London: 1849.</li><li>Hand-colored lithograph on fine paper mounted on card as issued from the subscription edition of Roberts' Egypt.&nbsp;</li></ul> David Roberts' magnificent images of Egypt and the Holy Land rank among the finest topographical views of the 19th century. Roberts made a two-year journey to the Middle East commencing in 1838, and while there, executed numerous watercolors from which the finest were selected for the publication. The lithographs were executed by Louis Haghe. In order to help fund the project, Roberts produced a deluxe subscription edition, from which this lithograph was taken, which is notable for being the only edition to have original hand color, which would have been executed under the direction of the artist.

Mordaunt was a keen cockfighter and had brought out from England gamecocks which he was confidant would defeat the native-bred cocks (Mary Webster, Johan Zoffany 1733-1810, Exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, 1976, cat. no. 104). Notable spectators include General Martin, Mr. Wheeler, John Wombwell, Ozias Humphry and Zoffany himself.

Engravings depicting the metamorphoses of South American insects and the exotic plants on which they feed, from Dissertatio de Generatione et Metamorphasibus Insectorum Surinamensium.<ul><li>Sold as a set of 4.</li><li>After Maria Sybylla Merian (German, 1647-1717).</li><li>Engravings by J. Mulder, P. Sluyter and D. Stoopendaal.</li><li>The Hague: Gosse, 1719.</li><li>Hand-colored later.</li><li>Each is presented framed.</li></ul> Maria Sybilla, daughter of the German engraver and publisher Matthias Merian, devoted herself to the study of European insects and their metamorphoses. As a result of the wealth of tropical varieties being brought back by the Dutch West Indies Company, she decided to visit the Dutch colony of Surinam herself to study and paint the insect life there. She sailed with her daughter Dorothea on June 1699 from Amsterdam, and remained in Surinam until 1701. Her work, first published in 1705, "gave an unprecedented glimpse of the teeming insect life of tropical South America, with gorgeous butterflies flying around luxuriant flowering or fruiting plants and with large many-colored caterpillars crawling over the leaves. [The plates] have earned Maria Merian an honored place in the history of tropical entomology as also in botanical illustration" (W.T. Stearn, introduction to The Wondrous Transformation of Caterpillars, 1978).

Rheede was the colonial governor of Malabar on the southwest coast of India and, when not occupied with official duties, an enthusiastic botanist and investigator of the Indian sub-tropical flora. Initially he encouraged local people to collect plants for him and employed learned Brahmins to supply information.

Hand-colored mezzotint engravings of aloes in decorative pots by Johann Weinmann.<ul><li>Sold as a set of 12.</li><li>Johann Wilhelm Weinmann (German).</li><li>Amsterdam: Zacharias Romberg, 1736-1748.</li><li>In handmade gold-leaf frames and glazed with glass.</li></ul> Weinmann (1683-1741) was a Regensburg apothecary who organized the publication of Phytanthoza Iconographia, a huge florilegum which was not only very beautiful but which also influenced the publication of similar works worldwide. "The mezzotint process used here had been invented by Johann Teyler in the Netherlands around 1688. As practiced here by Bartholomaus Seuter (1678-1754) and Johann Elias Ridinger (1698-1767), it was really a combination of etching and mezzotint, which made possible delicate lines and a very fine grain. The addition of hand-tinting brought about unusual and subtle effects." (Hunt)

His paintings are sought after and are found in leading institutions such as the Albertina in Vienna, the Fitzwilliam, Cambridge and Oak Spring, Virginia.

The accession of Louis XVI in 1774 was followed by a relaxation in the regulation of the book trade, making it easier for authors to publish their own works. No other writer was to take such copious advantage of these two developments as Pierre-Joseph Buchoz (1731-1807), a French physician, lawyer and naturalist. His works are characterized by the beauty of the illustrations, and their rarity owing to the small size of the print runs.
