Armorial bookplate of the library of the Comte Chevreau d'Antraigues. Interrupted by Buffon's death in 1788 the vast undertaking of the Histoire naturelle found its natural continuation in Étienne de Lacépède. Called upon during the final years of Buffon's life to carry forward the unfinished sections he successively published the volumes devoted to oviparous quadrupeds and serpents followed by those on fishes and cetaceans before undertaking a new arrangement of the entire work. Begun under his supervision this edition continued after his death in October 1825 concluding with the publication of the supplementary volume in 1828. Its illustration owes much to Jean-Gabriel Prêtre one of the foremost animal painters of his generation. Trained in Geneva before joining Empress Joséphine's menagerie at Malmaison and later the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle he devoted much of his career to depicting newly described species with remarkable accuracy; several still bear his name today. The present copy comes from the library of the Comte Chevreau d'Antraigues as evidenced by its armorial bookplate a recognised provenance on the French antiquarian book market where a number of books from the same library have appeared over the years. One of the finest editions of Buffon's Histoire naturelle bringing together for the first time in a coherent and uniform set the work as finally arranged by Lacépède. A. Eymery hardcover
