1839

These prints are from an extremely rare
work of beautifully hand colored stipple engravings. It derives form the
work of the luminaries of the 18th century and the later direction of Turpin. The
"Dizionario di Scienze Naturali" in 26 text volumes and 4 atlas
volumes came as one of the most extensive and wonderfull Natural History
Dictionary.

First published in France, it was then
published in Italian in 1837 by Batelli & Sons (Ref: Ceresoli).

Botanical prints are by Turpin, the other
subjects by Pretre.

The prints in good
condition, are beautifully executed stipple engravings in very fine detail, all
with original handcolouring. The colours are bright and very intense on
a creamy white medium weight paper. Some are heightened with gold
& silver.

Each print measures approximately 5 1/2
inches wide by 8 3/4 inches long, with descriptions in Latin & Italian.

There is no accompanying text. The
images cannot show the minute detail of the stipple engravings. All our prints
are guaranteed authentic antique prints. These prints are extremely rare.
