The 1 008 plates drawn by François-Nicolas Martinet 1731-1800 under Edmée-Louis Daubenton's supervision are dedicated to birds butterflies flying insects and to a few reptiles and mammals. All the plates were drawn and handcoloured at the time. Buffon decided to dedicate this separate beautiful edition to birds and ha dit printed in 4° and folio format. " One of the most important of all birds books from the collector's point of view " Stillwell 63. "In 1739 Buffon was appointed Director of the Jardin du Roi. It would appear that the "Natural History" germinated in the preparation of a catalogue of the royal collection. Buffon then enlarged its scope to Aristotelian or Plinian proportions and finally transformed it into a conspectus of nature of a breadth and depth previously unknown. The Natural History was a great popular success" PMM. A lot of copies are missing the insects supplement of 35 plates and only contain 973 plates. A magnificent copy belonging to the luxuous folio edition complete with its 1008 plates handcouloured at the time preserved in its contemporary binding. Copies' value depend on its number of plates and on its bindings. (Imprimerie Royale) hardcover
