Geel - 5 Botanical Lithographs
This beautiful hand-colored, first edition lithograph is from Pierre Corneille van Geel's Encyclographie du Règne végétal. Sertum Botanicum. Collection des plants remarquables par leur utilité, leur élégance, leur éclat ou leur nouveauté, consistant en six cents planches soigneusement lithographiées et coloriées... par une société de botanistes. The work was published in Brussels between 1828 and 1832 by Etablissement Encyclographique.
Pierre Corneille Van Geel is often considered the editor and author, though Pierre Auguste Joseph Drapiez may have contributed or been responsible for the text. The images were near life size representations of the flowers and foliage.
The work is in good to very good condition overall. There may be some faint text offset or very light scattered foxing to the paper. There may be a few minor imperfections to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions.
