Item Details

Description

This beautiful hand-colored engraving is from Georges Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon's Allgemeine Naturgeschichte. The work was published in Belin by Pauli between 1771 and 1774.

Buffon's work became one of the most informative sources as far as the visual appearance of animals, and was highly understandable for a wide audience. Buffon described his work and love for natural history by stating that, "Natural history embraces all the objects the universe presents to us. This prodigious multitude of quadrupeds, birds, fish, insects, plants, minerals, etc., offers to the curiosity of the human mind a vast spectacle, of which the whole is so great that the details are inexhaustible."

Paper Size ~ 7 1/2" by 5 1/2"

Condition

The work is in very good to excellent condition overall. There may be some very light toning or text offset. 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.
