XXV imperii IV. José Xavier Veloso 1742-1811 born in what is now Minas Gerais Brazil was ordained in 1766 in the convent of St. Anthony in Rio de Janeiro where he studied philosophy and theology later geometry in San Paulo and finally natural history. He collected plants animals and minerals in the Rio de Janeiro area from 1783 to 1790 at which time he moved to Lisbon where he worked at the Royal Academy of Sciences while preparing Florae Fluminensis his greatest work for publication. Using the Linnaeus’ system of sexual classification of plants he prepared very highly detailed texts and 1700 prints many of them of new species. But the publication of the work was beset by problems. First sent to Venice the plates were never completed. Later the French invasion of the Iberian peninsular sent the Portuguese government then Veloso and his manuscripts into exile in Brazil where he died in 1811. In 1825 an abbreviated version of the text was published followed by the eleven volumes of the Icones in 1827 of which few copies survive. The complete text was not published until this edition in 1881. Bound with and proceeded by Archivos do Museu Nacional do Rio De Janeiro. Volume IV. 1879. Rio 1881. viii 151 1 pp vii plates.

1837réf. ABC_47224Paris 1837. Folio ca. 35 x 26.5 cm. Dauty Contemporary half sheepskin maroon watered silk sides title in gold on the front board. With an engraved title-page and 11 of 23 engraved botanical prints: 4 showing 5 kinds of fruits each 3 showing 9 types of flowers each and 4 showing flower bouquets. All prints are stipple engravings and coloured by a contemporary hand some parts glazed with egg white. 12 ll. Extremely rare botanical print series showing both European and exotic fruits and flowers engraved by Jean-Baptiste Huet the younger 1772-1852 after designs of Benoît-Louis Prévost 1735-1804 or Jean-Louis Prévost 1760-1810. It also includes four plates showing bouquets from Europe America Asia and Africa. Only one complete copy is known at the Bibliothèque nationale de France we have traced no copy in sale or auction records and it is not mentioned in the usual botanical bibliographical works. The BnF copy is described in the Inventaire du fonds français après 1800 where the series consists of 23 prints issued all together under this title. The BnF and the IFF date the work ca. 1837-1839 but it is more likely that it is ca. 1837-1838 as Dauty died in 1838 and he printed at Rue de Bibliothèque no. 16 only in 1827 and 1835-1838. The BnF ascribes the designs for the prints to Benoît-Louis Prévost but Jean-Louis Prévost remains a possibility for he produced another famous print series of flowers and fruits in the same style of stipple engravings Collection des fleurs et fruits 1805.With a contemporary inscription "A M.elle Vincent" on the first free endleaf dedicating it to or belonging to the famous French 19th-century botanical painter Henriette Vincent 1786-1834 who was a student of Gerard van Spaendonck and Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Head and foot of the spine damaged and spine slightly worn boards a little rubbed edges slightly worn corners bumped. Some light browning and foxing throughout title-page a little more browned and with a light marginal water stain. Lacking 12 plates according to IFF. Otherwise in good condition.

1693réf. H1280Napoli / Naples: Carlo Troyse 1693. Hardcover. Very Good. Large 8vo 8.5 x 6.25 inches bound in late 19th century half vellum and cloth boards red calf label gilt spine 10 211 1 pp with portrait and 18 folding copperplates — this may lack an engraved title page preceding the printed title — text fine binding a little worn and soiled some fading and discoloration to cloth boards. Very Good. Divided into four parts this military treatise discusses the use of trebuchets — machines used to hurl stones or projectiles especially over walls; “petardi” — encased bombs and explosives with remarks on the preparation of gunpowder; the arming of boats and ships; and a section on mines for land and sea and counter-mines. The first part in particular has a long and detailed discussion on various types of artillery mortars and explosive shells. The author was a vaunted artillery-man and military author born in Taranto in 1610. He participated as a miner in various sieges; in 1645 he was master bombardier in the citadel of Turin. He proved to be an expert bombardier in Asti and at the siege of Portolongone. In 1676 he published the first edition of Flagello Militare; a second edition came out in 1687 and this is the third edition. All editions are rare in the trade. Carlo Troyse hardcover
