About this Item
Description:
This is a truly special combined watercolor and engraved plate presentation from Naturalist's Miscellany. The work was done by George Shaw & Frederick Nodder and published in London from 1789 to 1813. This plate / watercolor were completed prior to 1859 based on the prior owner's hand written labels dating June 1859 to endpapers. The engravings are on the Whatman watermarked paper often with contemporary caption in pencil or ink with added watercolor backgrounds or colorations and hand-drawn or washed borders.The Naturalist's Miscellany was a monumental 24-volume work, known for its wide range of birds, reptiles, insects, quadrupeds, sea life, and botanicals. The prints are highly sought after by collectors for their extremely decorative and whimsical nature. George Shaw authored the work, providing details for the over 1000 species described therein. Fredrick Nodder was the engraver for most of the work. After his death in 1800, however, his son took over the position.George Shaw was a doctor, Fellow of the Royal Society, co-founder of the Linnean Society, and a zoologist of the British Museum. He was also the first to publish a scientific description of the platypus which was done in his noted work with Frederick Nodder, the Naturalistâ s Miscellany. --- The work is in good to excellent condition overall. Some of the borders to plates from this work are trimmed to or past the edge. Occasional fox marks or toning are present to much of the images. There may be a few minor imperfections or faint marks to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions. --- Paper Size ~ 5 3/8" by 8 5/8".

Condition: Fine. This originally hand-colored engraving is from George Edwards's "A Natural History of Uncommon Birds and of some other Rare and Undescribed Animals and Gleanings of Natural History." The work was published in London for the Author between 1745 and 1806. --- This was one of the most important natural history works. Many of the birds in the work had not been previously illustrated, with quite a few being foreign species drawn from captivity in London. Linnaeus gave around 350 birds their scientific names based on Edwards's descriptions. --- George Edwards (1694-1773) was an English draughtsman and proficient ornithologist. He worked as the Librarian to the Royal College of Physicians which eventually allowed him to pursue publishing his bird studies and drawings. Edward really drove the prominence of bird and animal illustration in his time and thus became known as 'The Father of British Ornithology.' --- The work is in good to very good condition overall. There may be some very light toning, offset, or light fox marks to engravings from this the work. There may be a few minor imperfections to be expected with age.
