Stirpes novae, aut minus cognitae, quas descriptionibus et iconibus illustravit.
1784 Main title page of this important work, broadsheet or large imperial folio (45 x 59 cm). Uncut. With some slight foxing, but nothing serious. With a few repaired small tears in the margins. It has a Latin dedication signed De Brutelle and dated 1824 (24 year's after his death) by his second son. From the same work we also have for sale the title-pages of the first and second installments, and coloured plates by Redouté, Fossier and Freret.This title page is taken from the very rare deluxe large paper and hand-coloured edition of this work, with plates coloured by Piere Redouté and his brother Henri-Joseph Redouté. In 1965 about 44 copies of the work were known of which 9 incomplete, and of 31 studied only 11 were large-sized.In Stirpes novae Charles L'Héritier de Brutelle (1746-1800) described a great number of new species, many of which grew in his own garden, the gardens of his friends and in the Jardin du Roi. He had ample means and engaged the young Redouté to draw the majority of the plates (54 out of 91). The two developed a close friendship and L'Héritier taught Redouté the basics of plant taxonomy and dissection. The friendship proved a determining factor in Redouté's career and enabled him to fully develop his extraordinary talents. See: Günther Buchheim, 1965. A bibliographical account of L'Héritier's 'Stirpes novae'.
