RARRISIMUM ON ORNAMENTAL FLOWERING PLANTS

Sammlung von Zierpflanzen, nach der Natur gezeichnet und colorirt.
Basel, E. Hindermann, (ca 1835).
Small 4to. With a lithographed title and 100 fine hand coloured lithographed plates. Contemporary calf with gilt label to the spine.
Nissen, BBI 1118 (mistakenly calls for 96 plates). Of the greatest scarcity. Beautiful collection of 100 exquisitely hand coloured lithographs of ornamental flowering plants by the famed Swiss botanical artist Jonas David Labram (1785-1852). Labram is perhaps best remembered for the illustrations he made for Hegetschweiler’s ‘Sammlung von Schweizer Pflanzen’. - Binding rubbed; light marginal spotting.
