‎Paris Garnier Fr�res 1855. In 16 volumes. 4to 26.5 x 17.3 cm. 10419 pp.; one portrait four hand-coloured maps one tinted frontispiece 190 of 194 finely hand-coloured steel-engravings of which nine placed as frontispieces. Contemporary uniform half morocco over marbled boards. Spines with five raised bands gilt title. Marbled endpapers speckled edges. The works of Buffon Cuvier and De Lac�p�de went through many editions. This 4to edition offers the complete work of all three authors has excellent images follows the Linnaean system and is in all these respects superior to the 18th century editions. This edition edited by Flourens and published by Garnier is not in Nissen; in fact of the "Cuvier" part there is nothing similar in Nissen at all. The "Buffon" section including the parts on mammalogy and ornithology was published in 12 volumes; the "Cuvier et Lac�p�de" section with herpetology and ichthyology and additional mammal and bird plates was published in four matching volumes. The fine hand-coloured plates are by e.g. Travi�s and Acarie Baron. According to Nissen ZBI 705 the Buffon-part of a similar but not identical work does not have 150 plates per the title page as in this edition but 163. However his collation differs widely from this set and doubtlessly refers to a different edition and so does his number 704. In this set the Buffon part has several plates bound in at variance with the "indication pour le placement des planches" and does not have a plate of fossil teeth and two bird plates "Le petit mouche et son nid" and "L'echasse Le tourne-pierre l'huitrier" all called for in the index but never bound in and indeed has 147 plates including the maps tinted frontispiece and portrait; the index to the "Cuvier" part calls for a "baleine" plate in volume 1 but it is not included. Original red and black printed front wrapper of volume 11 bound in. Two leaves with a small repair to the top edge some very light spotting mainly to tissue-guards and near the top edge but generally quite clean and in all a very attractive uniform set.
