Grandville, some minor spotting and browning throughout mainly to the text; bound in contemporary burgundy morocco gilt, marbled endpapers, binders label, overall a fine copy. First edition, first issue of one of the great modern illustrated books of the 19th century. Grandville was a remarkable caricaturist and he animates the flowers as women whose personality reflects a particular flower. Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard (13 September 1803 17 March 1847) was a prolific French illustrator and caricaturist who published under the pseudonym of Grandville, and numerous variations (e. g. Jean-Jacques Grandville, Jean Ignace Isidore Grandville) throughout his career.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition. 2 volumes with continuous pagination. Small 4to. Pp. iv-262; [vi], iv, [263]-364, + 132. Complete with all plates (coloured) and 2 not coloured in the last section. Bound in 1 volume in quarter burgundy leather over diced patterned paper boards, with floral decorated spine and lettering in gilt. Joints and spine ends rubbed, with light cracking and scuffing to the spine, egde-wear to the boards, with bumped and rubbed corners. Marbled endpapers, hinges not cracked and strong, but must handle carefully as the text block is fragile, still together and quite tight, but weak at some gatherings, some of which are a little pulled by a couple of millimeters. Foxing throughout but mostly to the text and not the coloured plates, all which have guards and are quite fresh and clean, last two plates (uncoloured) are with heavier foxing. Beautiful book, good to very good condition overall.

Hardcover. Etat : Near fine. First Edition. 3 vols. in 1. 1st American edition (in English). Exceptionally detailed, bespoke, contemporary full morocco, signed on the cover by Jill Smith, intricately inlaid, white silk moiré, framed endpapers, bearing a gilt inscription from a husband to his wife on their wedding day (Jan. 1, 1859, probably dating the binding as 1858), all edges gilt, light wear to covers, neatly rebacked, small chips to the corners of the vignette title page, a trace of foxing but printed on paper vastly superior to what was general on American books in 1847, and still near fine. 50 unprecedented engraved plates of anthropomorphic plants (simultaneously poetical and satirical) dressed in flower and leaf enhanced French couture of the day, when seamstresses were independent, hired individually and came to the customer. The 50 plates are professionally and, in this copy, artistically, hand colored (the publisher's choice of the painters he employed varies from copy to copy), with 2 additional botanical plates in black and white, all as called for and as issued. Complete with the errata, the contents, the Modern Botany for Ladies, The Cultivation of Flowers (Ladies Horticulture), and the Supplement to Ladies Botany. The book is a famed one, the binding on this copy is an additional beautification. It's the quality sometimes seen on French editions of Grandville's works but not encountered on his translations into English. And for a midcentury binding on an American book, it's extraordinary. Collation: 385pp. + 152p., 8p. In these illustrations, Grandville followed in the steps of the likes of Bosch, Bruegel, and Goya as ancestors in the first hazy light before sunrise, of what became the grotesque in surrealism, more evident (to me) in the 2nd of the 3 plates opposite page 136, the one opposite page 230, the one opposite page 252, and that opposite page 261. And these were 18 years before Tenniel's assault on reality in Alice in Wonderland, and 70 years before surrealism was named, when it hatched out of Dada in the 1920s. Grandville's other major works, (including The Animals and Another World) combined with this one to express the varieties and possibilities of the concept and marked him as an inventive genius without peer in his time.

Grandville's Favorite Work "Poetic and Gracious Originality, Dexterity of Mind and Observation" [GRANDVILLE, J.J., illustrator]. DELORD, Taxile. Les Fleurs Animées. Introductions Par Alph. Karr, Texte Par Taxile Delord Première Partie [&] Deuxième Partie. Paris: Gabriel De Gonet, Éditeur, [no date but 1847]. First edition, second issue, with discontinued pagination in vol. II and with the frontispieces signed "E. de Soye, à Paris". Two large octavo volumes bound in one (10 x 6 3/4 inches; 254 x 172 mm.). [ii], blank], [iii-v], 6-260, [2, table des matières]; [iv], [i]-iv, [1]-102,[105]-166, [2 table des matières, verso blank], [i]-iv, [169]-234, [2, table des matières, verso blank] pp. Added hand-colored wood-engraved title in each volume, fifty hand-colored wood-engraved plates by Geoffroy after Grandville, and two unsigned engraved botanical plates. All plates with original tissue-guards. The final sections are "Botanique des dames," which includes two botanical plates illustrating the physiology of plants, "Horticulture des dames," and "Culture des fleurs." Publishers full dark brown morocco over beveled boards, covers elaborately stamped in gilt. Spine with five shallow raised bands, elaborately decorated and lettered in gilt in compartments, gilt board edges, pale gray endpapers, all edges gilt. Some light foxing to text pages only. An excellent example of Grandville's favorite work. "After Un autre monde the fifty-two colored engravings of Les fleurs animées are the chief example of Grandville's effort to penetrate to the meaning of objects like an 'intellectual miner' (preface to Les étoiles, p. xi), even though only fifteen of the designs are entirely from his hand (Bouchot, p. 58). Though the images in the book are of Grandville's time, his manner of proceeding is that of an artist of the modern movement, exploring the same subject through a sequence of slight but significant variations. Most of the plates show an elegant lady in a garden, her dress covered with an extraordinary pattern of flowers. She is sometimes accompanied by respectful creatures, animals and insects, even fish and reptiles. As the series nears its end there are more elaborate scenes of flower-ladies in groups. A little world is created, governed by its own laws, which was full of significance to Grandville and hence becomes so to the reader as well. His first biographer wrote in the preface to Les étoiles (pp. xiii-ix): 'The Fleurs animées are the very thought of Grandville; they were his favorite work, the work into the execution of which he put all that was in him of poetic and gracious originality, of dexterity of mind and observation, of that prodigious perspicacity which made him divine affinities hitherto unperceived by anyone and discover new worlds'" (Ray, The Art of the French Illustrated Book).

The plates presented here, each with two images, consist of the following flowers: 'LAURIER / MYRTE', 'CAPUCINE / AUBEPINE', 'CAMELLIA / BELLE-DE-NUIT', 'FLEUR DE PECHER / CACTUS', 'EGLANTINE / SOLEIL', 'PERUENCHE DESSECHE / HORTENSIA COURONNE IMPERIALE', 'CHEVREFEUILLE / NENUPHAR', 'VERVEINE / LILAS' and 'LIN / MYOSOTIS'.
