‎BOTANICA Goodenia di folgie ovate Goodenia ovata‎

‎Eccellente incisione creata dal maestro Pierre Jean Francis Turpin. Le scritte indicanti la specie e la descrizione della pianta o animale sono in italiano e/o latino, e provengono dalla prima edizione italiana del Dizionario di scienze naturali edito da Battelli nel 1831. Quest'opera imponente era composta da 29 volumi ed era corredata da centinaia di incisioni che rappresentavano tutto il mondo animale e vegetale. L'opera deriva da un eccellente lavoro di luminari del XVIII secolo supportati dal Re francese Louis XV in seguito guidati dallo stesso Turpin, considerato al tempo il più grande incisore di botanica. La maggior parte delle incisioni sono firmate Turpin & Pretre. Le incisioni sono veramente eccezionali con una grande dovizia di particolari e dipinte a mano.

The engravings are written in latin and italian and come from the first italian edition of Dictionary of natural sciences edited by Battelli in 1831. This imponent work was made up by 29 volumes and contained hundreds of engravings that represented all the plant and animal kingdom. This work derives from an excellent work of luminaries of the 18th century supported by the french King Louis XV and then directed by the same Turpin that was considered as the greatest botanical engraver of his time.
