Grandville, J. J. - The Animated Flowers. Text by Alph. Karr - Lot 68
Grandville, J. J. - The Animated Flowers. Text by Alph. Karr, Taxile Delord and Cte Fœlix. New edition with plates very carefully retouched for engraving and coloring by M. Maubert. Paris, Garnier Frères, s.d. [1899]. 2 volumes in-8, half blue morocco, spines decorated but faded, spines and nerves rubbed - Title-frontispice, [2 ff.], 339 pp, [2 ff.]; 28 engravings in color; title-frontispice, [2 ff.], 390 pp, [1 f.], 22 plates in color and 2 engraved plates of botany. One of the most famous works of Grandville which contrasts with the usual caricatured production of the artist. He walks us here in a paradisiacal garden populated with flower-women. The second volume contains a botany and horticulture of the ladies, useful lessons on the culture of flowers. This careful reprint with very fresh colors attests to the continuing success of the work.
