Erstausgabe
FIRST EDITION, 37 vols., 8vo, each vol. except index ff. [i, title-page], 72, [3, indices] + a total of 2,592 hand-coloured plates, of which 3 folding, plus a further pp. iv and pp. vi, [ii] in vols. 1 and 7 respectively,index vol. pp. viii, [76]. Vol. 4 bound without Smith?s preface. Contemporary half dark green straight-grained morocco, marbled boards, spines divided by raised bands and double gilt rules, marbled edges and endpapers. A little spotting and offsetting, title-page of index vol. damaged. Bindings variably rubbed and a little worn, front board of vol. 6 detached, front hinge of vol. 24 broken. Some pencil notes, a few dried flowers inserted, often to correspond with entries for the same specimens. A lovely example of James Sowerby?s (1757-1822) English Botany, which he claimed to be ?a perfect National Flora, a work that has been attempted in several countries, but, which is very remarkable, has not proceeded nearly to completion in any other? When first embarking upon the project, Sowerby?s collaborator James Edward Smith (1759-1828) refused to have his name attached, fearing the work would not befit his status as founder and president of the Linnean Society. After the popularity of the first volumes, however, he changed his mind, partly out of frustration that people would quote Sowerby when referring to his botanical descriptions. Compiled and issued as a periodical over nearly 25 years, this was a mammoth undertaking, with both Sowerby and Smith constantly in correspondence with fellow botanists and avid plant collectors to discuss variations or new locations of specimens. Sowerby did both the initial drawings and the engravings for each of the 2,592 plates. The attention to detail is astounding, particularly in the vast variety of mosses and lichens recorded, which are often overlooked by modern gardeners, as well as the striking and colourful species of seaweed. While toiling on these volumes, Sowerby conceived a separate work solely focused on English Fungi, published in 3 volumes from 1797 to 1803 - covered by the same general index but rarely found together with the Botany.

Zustand: In original fine condition. Three finely hand coloured engraved plates with their descriptive text 270 x 200 mm. Superb hand coloured engravings by James Sowerby prepared for A Specimen of the Botany of New Holland (1793) by James Smith. This landmark work included the first illustrations of a number of Australian species, including the three offered here: Embothrium sericeum, Embothrium buxifolium and Pimelea linifolia. According to a note in the preface of the full published work, the drawings on which the fine hand-coloured plates were based were done in the colony by John White, the Surgeon-General, who was a keen amateur natural history artist and collector. The period of European settlement in Australia was also a time of fine book production in Europe; the wide public interest in natural sciences meant that the illustrated books published during the period were not only factual but often exceptionally beautiful. In the Preface to smith he states that this work is "An Attempt to make the Public acquainted with some of the productions of a country of which they have lately heard so much, and in which they are now so deeply interested. The illustrations were prepared not only from drawings supplied from Sydney but also from the "most copious and finely preserved collection of dried specimens." that came with them from New South Wales. James Edward Smith was one of the leading naturalists in England and the author of several outstanding botanical books. In 1788 he founded, and was the first President of, the Linnean Society which became a meeting place for botanists and a significant reference source as Smith had, for the Society, acquired the collections and library of the famous Swedish naturalist, Linnaeus. Sir Joseph Banks was a close colleague of Smith, and James Sowerby (1740-1803), the artist of these superb plates, was one of the foremost botanical artists, who exhibited frequently at the Royal Academy. The collaboration between these great naturalists ensured that Australia's first illustrations of our unique flora were among the finest of the late eighteenth century. .
