‎The Clutius Botanical Watercolors: Plants And Flowers Of The Renaissance‎

‎Harry N. Abrams Inc. New York: 1998. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. During the Renaissance the boundary between art and science was not as clearly drawn as it is in the information age. One of the key functions of science in Da Vinci's day was to accurately and elegantly depict the denizens of the natural world and nowhere did the scientist-artists shine more than in botanical studies. The Clutius Botanical Watercolors offers a glimpse into the world of 16th-century naturalists who spent much time "botanizing." This particularly gorgeous collection of original but unsigned drawings and watercolors was owned by Theodorus Clutius a Netherlands pharmacist and they were used to instruct budding scientists and physicians at Leiden University. These plant studies are exquisitely detailed and delicately colored retaining both usefulness and beauty. Every needle on the pine bough is painstakingly rendered. Each pea leaf tendril and flower is accurate and dainty. Each plant in the pleasure garden the kitchen garden and the wild is drawn and tinted to perfection ISBN: 0810940957. Harry N. Abrams, Inc., New York: 1998 hardcover‎

‎Intellectual property Rights and Biodiversity Conservation - an interdisciplinary analysis of the values of medicinal plants‎

‎Cambridge University Press 1995. Octavo pp xiv 271 four or five pages are slightly indistinct - a printing error - but still readable otherwise this is virtually as new in a very good dustwrapper. The urgent need to ensure the conservation of biological diversity is now widely recognised but practical measures to protect endangered species and habitats are still carried out on a small scale and generally limited to developed countries. This volume provides a detailed analysis of the economic and scientific rationales for biodiversity conservation. It discusses the justification for and implementation of intellectual property rights regimes as incentive systems to encourage conservation. An interdisciplinary approach is used in the book encompassing fields of study that include evolutionary biology chemistry economics and legal studies. The arguments are presented using the case study of the use of medicinal plants in the pharmaceutical industry. The book will be of interest and relevance to a broad spectrum of conservationists from research students to policy makers. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good.

‎SWEERTS (SWEERT - SWEERTIUS), EMANUEL.‎

‎Florilegium amplissimum et selectissimum " quo non tantum varia diversorum florum praestantissimorum et nunquam antea exhibitorum genera, sed et rarae quamplurimae indicarum plantarum, et radicium formae, ad vivum partibus duabus, quatuor etiam lingui... - [THE FAMOUS FLORILEGIUM]‎

‎Amsterdam, Jan Janssonius, 1631. Folio. Contemp. hcalf. Raised bands. Compartments gilt with floral stamps. Titlelabel with gilt lettering. Repairs to spine ends and hinges. Marbled coverpapers. Covers a bit rubbed. Endpapers renewed. Engraved frontispiece title, engraved portrait. (24),(10) pp. and 110 fine engraved plates (67 to the first part, 43 to the second), depicting 560 plants, usually life-size. A few minor brownspots.‎

‎Scarce early (the first 1612) edition of Sweert's famous Florilegium, at first intended to be both a catalogue for selling plants and bulps and a picture-book of plants, but the later editions (as here) became a true Florilegium for collectors and botanical scientists. The first part deals with bulbous species, and the second with species having ""fibrous"" roots (fibrosae radices). Thirty-three tulip heads are paraded in regular columns. The American contingent is represented by the sunflower, cactus, agave, pineapple and Canna. Sweerts and Johann Theodor de Bry were the first to establish the convention of portraying lower stem with bulb or root alongside severed upper stem and flower in order to reproduce the plant life-size on the page. ""Sweert prepared his Florilegium as a guide of his available stock for the Frankfurt Fair of 1612. The plates, depicting some 560 bulbs and flowers, were from the Johann Theodore de Bry Florilegium which in turn was based on that by Pierre Vallet. His attractively depicted bulbs sparked their popularity, leading to 6 editions of the work between 1612 and 1647, and a demand which would later result in ""Tulipomania"". At the time of the fair Sweert was in the employ of Emperor Rudolf II as head of his gardens in Vienna. He borrowed freely from plates that had been published before, so that many of those that appeared in the Florilegium had been cultivated in the gardens of King Henry IV of France at the Louvre.""

‎SWEERT EMMANUEL‎

‎Florilegium...tractans de variis floribus et aliis indicis plantis as vivum delineatum in duabus partis et quatuor linguis concinnatum‎

‎2 parti in un volume, in folio (mm 397x255). Frontespizio calcografico con figure allegoriche, seconda parte con titolo separato e vignetta editoriale silografica. Ritratto dell'autore mancante in antiporta, 110 raffinate tavole a piena pagina, incise finemente in rame. Piena pelle posteriore del XVII secolo con titolo in oro su tassello in marocchino rosso al dorso e quattro nervi con filetti dorati, decori a losanghe dorate ai piatti.<BR>Rara prima edizione di entrambe le parti. Emanuel Sweert, (1552-1612), commerciante di fiori olandese e prefetto dei giardini per l'imperatore Rodolfo II, editò il Florilegium nel 1612. Si trattava essenzialmente di un catalogo di vendita senza prezzo, in latino, olandese, tedesco e francese delle scorte di Sweert, disponibili per la vendita alla fiera di Francoforte. Nelle 110 tavole sono rappresentati oltre 560 fiori diversi, generalmente raggruppati per specie e con una breve nota esplicativa per ciascuno. Sweert copiò le incisioni dal Florilegium di De Bry del 1611, che è sua volta parzialmente basato su un'opera del 1608 di Pierre Vallet. Un iris bianco celebra il nome dell'autore (Iris Sweertii). L'opera è divisa in due parti: la prima tratta delle specie bulbose, la seconda delle specie con radici "fibrose" (ellebori, canna, mughetto, crisantemi, e molte altre) e una serie di "belle" e " profumate specie" come il mirto, la pergola e il ginepro. L'opera ebbe grande risonanza e fu molto apprezzata, tanto che furono pubblicate 6 edizioni (una a Francoforte, le altre ad Amsterdam) tra il 1612 e il 1647. Bell'esemplare con qualche difetto al frontespizio della prima parte (strappetti restaurati, integrazione marginale in basso, piccoli camminamenti di tarlo che non ledono il testo al margine inf. per poche pagine all'inizio del tomo. Qualche macchia saltuaria al registro. Tavole 9 e 10 con piccola macchia di colore grigio all'angolo inferiore, tavole 61, 62, 63 con macchia più ampia al margine interno. Tav. 25 della parte II con macchia di olio. Alone di acqua lieve, visibile a poche carte nella parte interna del margine inferiore. Sguardie rinnovate. Scomparto superiore del dorso e cuffia inferiore reintegrate.<BR>Nissen BBI 1920; Hunt 196; Pritzel 9073.<BR><BR>2 parts in one volume in 2° (mm 395 x 255). Engraved allegorical title. Second part with separate titlepage with wood-vignette. Figured frontespiece with engraved portrait of the author missing, 110 wonderful engraved plates of flowers. Good copy anyway as with margins of allegorical title very lightly soiled, small tears in lower margin of title repaired, plates 9-11 and 61-64 with ink spots on inner margin, brown stain on plate 25 of the second part, new endpapers, upper and lower spine-ends renewed. Late 17th-century calf gilt, sides with wavy, small roll-tool outer border, spine with ribs decorated gilt, red morocco lettering-piece.<BR>First edition of both parts I and II. Very Rare. Emanuel Sweet, a Dutch florist and prefect of gardens for Emperor Rudolf II, issued the Florilegium in 1612. It was essentially an unpriced sale catalogue, in Latin, Dutch, German and French of Sweert's stock available for sale at the Frankfurt Fair. Over 560 different flowers are shown on the 110 plates, generally grouped by species and with a brief explanatory note for each one. Sweert copied the engravings from De Bry's Florilegium of 1611, which was itself partially based on a 1608 work by Pierre Vallet. A white iris was even named for him (the Iris Sweertii). The work is divided into two parts: the first deals with bulbous species, and the second with species having "fibrous" roots (hellebores, canna, lily of the valley, chrysthanthemums, and many others) and a number of "beautiful" and "fragrant" trees such as myrtle, arbor vitae, and juniper. The work was very popular, leading to 6 editions being published (one in Frankfurt, the others in Amsterdam) between 1612 and 1647. Nissen BBI 1920; Hunt 196. <BR>‎
