Kleemann, Nikolaus Ernst.
Reisen von Wien über Belgrad bis Kilianova, durch die Butschiack-Tartarey über Cavschan, Bender, durch die Nogev-Tartarey in die Crimm, dann von Kaffa nach Konstantinopel, nach Smirna und durch den Archipelagum nach Triest und Wien, in den Jahren 1768, 1769, und 1770. Nebst einem Anhange von dern besondern Merkwürdigkeiten der Crimmischen Tartarey. Zweyte und vermehrte Auflage. Leipzig, Johann Paul Krauß, 1773.
8vo. (8), 280 pp. With 11 views on 9 folding engraved plates. Contemporary boards with giltstamped spine label. Second edition of the Viennese merchant's travelogue, the first unabridged edition and also the first to contain the fine engraved illustrations. Kleemann (1736-1801) gives a detailed account of his travels from Vienna to Crimea, on to Constantinople, Izmir (Smyrna) and Trieste until reaching his destination, Kiliya (Kilianova) in the Ukraine, then an important merchants' city in the Danube delta. The plates include views of Kiliya, Kavschan and Caffa, while also depicting the Iron Gates, the Dardanelles and the seraglio in Bakhchysarai. The principal part of the volume is dedicated to descriptions of the places visited en route, providing insights into the everyday life of an 18th century traveller. In the appendix, the author discusses the type of government in Tartary, the relations between the nobility and the Khans in Crimea, nutrition, jurisdiction, religion and economy, concluding with information on Turkish measurements, weights and currency. The final pages contain a translation of the first page of the firman issued for Kleemann, allowing him to travel without let or hindrance and waiving all tolls. - Paper slightly brownstained, otherwise well preserved. Provenance: Unidentified early 19th century monogram stamp to title page. Later in the library of the Swedish collector and goldsmith Christian Hammer (1818-1905) with his bookplate on front pastedown; ultimately removed from the library of the Viennese collector Werner Habel (his ownership stamp, dated 1977, to front pastedown). VD 18, 10541721. Wurzbach XII, 37. Weber II, 561. Chatzipanagioti-Sangmeister 488.

Potted Histories - An Artistic Voyage Through Plant Exploration
London: Scriptum Editions 2003. Very well illustrated large square quarto pp 336 white cloth an excellent copy in dustwrapper. This book tells the stories of the adventurous botanist explorers who collected plants under dangerous conditions which are now commonly grown in our gardens. The paintings have been selected from the archives of The Natural History Museum London. Every garden plant has a name - it has been discovered by someone described by someone and has often been the subject of a life's work. Each one has a story to tell some are from the harshest environments on earth some have flowers which mimic rotting flesh while still others have a beauty which defies the human imagination. The history of garden plants is one of science and adventure mirrored by the stories of artists who have recorded the plants in exquisite and devoted detail. As with scientists particular plants have often been the inspiration for an entire artistic career - such is their power to arouse passion. Potted Histories is a voyage of discovery though some of the treasures of botanical painting held in the collections of the Natural History Museum. Each chapter or 'potted history' is devoted to a particular plant - some familiar some more exotic but all with a surprise or two in store. The full colour artworks are accompanied by text which explores the discovery and development of each plant - from wild origins in far-flung places to their place in today's gardens. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. Scriptum Editions Hardcover
