Kurt Salchli

Two quarto volumes quarto (27 x 19 cm), 326 and 339 pages. A new edition with plates retouched for engraving and colouring by M. Maubert. 

Paris: Garnier Freres 1867.

Lovely half calf binding, spine somewhat rubbed. But the interior is faultless and the protected plates as bright and colourful as the day they were hand-finished.
 Illustrated with 50 magnificent hand-colored plates plus 2 hand-colored title pages, each plate depicting Grandville's marvellous humanized flowers. Also includes many smaller black & white engravings as well as pictorial initials. A bright and beautiful copy. This is a much-sought after edition as the plates are far better than in earlier versions.

The binding is a little tired, but the interior is absolutely fine, without any foxing or browning and with a freshness to the paper and the plates which is remarkable. Really fine condition.
