Nach dem Tod von William Curtis wurde die Publikation von George Graves weitergeführt und unter Mitwirkung des späteren Direktors der Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, William Jackson Hooker (1785–1865), erheblich ausgebaut. Gegenüber der ersten Ausgabe umfasst sie zahlreiche zusätzliche Arten sowie neue Tafeln von hervorragender künstlerischer Qualität. – William Curtis (1746–1799), britischer Apotheker, Botaniker und Entomologe, gehört zu den bedeutendsten Naturforschern seiner Zeit. Mit der «Flora Londinensis» schuf er das erste umfassende, wissenschaftlich fundierte Florenwerk der Umgebung Londons und setzte neue Massstäbe für die botanische Illustration. Zusammen mit seinem bis heute erscheinenden «Botanical Magazine» zählt das Werk zu den Meilensteinen der englischen Botanik des späten 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhunderts. Die prachtvollen, meist lebensgross dargestellten Pflanzenabbildungen stammen von bedeutenden Künstlern wie Sydenham Edwards, William Kilburn, James Sowerby und anderen. Es fehlen 71 von insgesamt 702 Tafeln. Durchgehend, teils stärker stockfleckig. Die Einbände berieben und bestossen. Die Rücken mit Fehlstellen. – Résumé: 6 volumes. With 631 (of 702) coloured copperlates by Sydenham Edwards, William Kilburn, James Sowerby, J. Swan u. a. nach Edwards, Graves, Hooker and others. Second, substantially enlarged edition of this magnificent botanical work. Following the death of William Curtis, publication was continued by George Graves and considerably expanded with the involvement of William Jackson Hooker (1785–1865), later Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. Compared with the first edition, it contains numerous additional species and new plates of outstanding artistic quality. William Curtis (1746–1799), British apothecary, botanist and entomologist, was one of the most distinguished naturalists of his time. With his Flora Londinensis, he produced the first comprehensive, scientifically grounded account of the flora of the London area, setting new standards for botanical illustration. Together with his Botanical Magazine, which continues to be published to this day, the work ranks among the milestones of British botany in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The magnificent botanical illustrations, mostly depicting plants life-size, were produced by distinguished artists including Sydenham Edwards, William Kilburn, James Sowerby and others. Lacking 71 of the 702 plates. Foxing throughout, in places more pronounced. Bindings rubbed and bumped. Spines with losses.

Modern Architecture : Since 1900
, Phaidon Press Ltd, 1996 Hardcover, 736 pages, ENG, 250 x 220 x 45 mm, dustjacket (not in good condition) book itself is in very good state, illustrated in colour / b/w , 3rd edition. ISBN 9780714835242.
Since its first publication in 1982, Modern Architecture Since 1900 has become established as a contemporary classic. Worldwide in scope, it combines a clear historical outline with masterly analysis and interpretation. Technical, economic, social and intellectual developments are brought together in a comprehensive narrative which provides a setting for the detailed examination of buildings. Throughout the book the author's focus is on the individual architect, and on the qualities that give outstanding buildings their lasting value. For the third edition the text has been radically revised and expanded, incorporating much new material and a fresh appreciation of regional identity and variety. Almost every chapter has been expanded and updated, and seven chapters are entirely new, including the whole of Part Four, which covers recent world architecture. Described by James Ackerman of Harvard University as 'immeasurably the finest work covering this field in existence', this book presents a penetrating analysis of the modern tradition and its origins, and traces the creative interaction between old and new that has generated such an astonishing richness of architectural forms throughout the century.
