(Copenhagen, 1838). Large8vo (230 x 135 mm). In recent half calf with gilt lettering to spine. 9 leaves of text in Danish and German describing plate 1-54 + 52 beautifully handcoloured plates: Plate 1-53, wanting plate 45. A very fine and clean copy.
The exceedingly rare first edition of Walter's famous ""Blomster-Museum"" or ""Blumen-Museum"". A total of 11 Hefts, each consisting of 6 plates and 1 leaf of accompanying text was published. As with his ""Flora eller colorerede Afbildninger af Pragt-Blomster"" it is of exceptional rarity and almost no complete copies are know. The present copy, albeit incomplete containing the first 8 hefts (except for plate 45 and 54), contain a more substantial part of the work than one can expect to find.

(1835)
(København, 1835-42). Folio. (32 x 24 cm.). Samtidigt hldrbd. med rig tidstypisk rygforgyldning. False fint restaurerede. (58) pp. med dansk-tysk paralelltekst samt 180 kobberstukne blomstertavler i pragtfuld original håndkolorering. Værket udkom med ialt 306 plancher samt tekst. De foreliggende tavler er numm. 91-270 med tekstblade til alle. Enkelte tavler med ganske lette brugsspor. Sidste tekstblad brunet.
Originaltrykket af dette, vel nok det smukkest kolorerede danske blomsterværk. Værket er af største sjældenhed og blev kun trykt i et ganske begrænset oplag. Det ses derfor næsten aldrig i komplet stand. (Heller ikke i Oscar Davidsen's specialsamling, indeholdende illuminerede danske værker). Således anfører Carl Christensen i ""Den Danske Botaniks Historie"", Bd. 1, p. 212, at ""de fleste Eksemplarer har færre tavler (færre end 306), f.Eks. det i K (Det kgl. Bibliotek) kun 204."" - Walter var født i Ratzeburg 1799, var maler og kobberstikker, kom til København i 1817 og var en årrække opsynsmand ved den Kgl. Malerisamling. - ""Medens Walters akademiske løbebane nærmest må kaldes mislykket, placerede han sig særdeles smukt som naturhistorisk tegner of stikker.""(Weilbach).Nissen 2101. - Not in Pritzel. - Not in British Museum (NH). - De Belder, 379: ""Of exceptional rarity, this edition is unrecorded in the catalogue of the British Museum (Natural History), Linean Society, Lindley Library, Kew and Massachusetts Horticultural Society. The attractive plates... are conservative in style and reminiscent in both design and colouring of the late eighteenth century.""

First edition. Johannes Eugenius Warming (1841–1924), commonly known as Eugen Warming, was a pioneering Danish botanist widely recognized as one of the founding figures of modern ecology. He authored the first textbook on plant ecology in 1895, introduced the first university course in the subject, and helped define the scope and content of ecological science. In 1975, ecologist R. J. Goodland asserted: “If one individual can be singled out to be honoured as the founder of ecology, Warming should gain precedence” (""The Tropical Origin of Ecology: Eugen Warming's Jubilee""). Warming wrote a number of textbooks on botany, plant geography and ecology, which were translated to several languages and were immensely influential at their time and later. Most important were “Plantesamfund and Haandbog i den systematiske Botanik”.

Rare complete first edition of Wwarming’s extensive work on phytoecology which still today is an important work on the subject in northwestern Europe. Volume three was given by Warming to Karl Erik Torsten Lagerberg (1882–1964), Swedish botanist and forestry professor. He taught at the Royal Forestry School (1918–1947) and studied forest tree diseases and fungi. He co-published Skogens skadesvampar and edited Svensk Botanisk Tidskrift from 1918. Lagerberg was elected to two national academies.

First edition of Warming’s doctoral dissertation, a landmark study in plant morphology and organogenesis. Here Warming investigates the cyathium (the characteristic cup-shaped structure) of the Euphorbia genus, seeking to determine whether it should be classified as a single flower or as an inflorescence. Warming’s work provided an important contribution to the understanding of floral structures in angiosperms.

Rare complete set with all six parts of Warming’s extensive work on the family Podostemaceae, with which he had become acquainted during his stay in Brazil. The plant species of this family are modified by the harsh environment in which they live - they are flowering plants that that resemble liverworts.
