This most important work deals with three botanical expeditions to the south. "Joseph Hooker was Darwin’s most intimate friend and was involved in the crystallization of his evolutionary ideas from their first beginnings, revealed to Hooker in a famous letter in 1844. The first explicit acceptance of Darwinism by a leading scientist was in Hooker’s Flora Tasmaniae, published only a few months after the Origin. In an introductory essay Hooker discussed the facts of natural relationship and geographical distribution of plants which pointed to evolution by selection, and gave an account of Darwin’s views and of some problems and difficulties. Hooker’s candid, judicial treatment, and the seal of his approval, were powerful advocates for the new theory" (Morton).

"The forty large plates in … were printed in Belgium from Van Nooten's original sketches by P. Depannemaeker, using the new technique of chromolithography. … Van Nooten was clearly a more than competent artist, for the splendid tropical plants, with their lush foliage, vividly coloured flowers and exotic fruit, have been depicted with great skill. She managed to accentuate the splendour of each species by adopting a style that combined great precision and clarity with a touch of neo-Baroque exuberance, revelling in the rich forms and colours of the tropics. The reader's eye is immediately captured by the dark leaves, shown furled or crumpled or partly nibbled away by insects, the delicately rendered details of the follicles and seeds, and the heavy clusters of flowers that cascade down the page. The excellent reproduction of the artist's drawings in the form of chromolithographs lends an added tactility to these striking images" (An Oak Spring flora). Text in English and French. The spectacular colour-plates are often finished by hand. They depict flowering trees, shrubs, decorative flowers and plants with edible fruits.

Two parts of the Voyage aux régions équinoxiales du Nouveau Continent, fait en 1799-1804. This massive work was published in 34 volumes over 25 years, dealing with natural history, economy, ethnography and archaeology of Central and South America. The botanical portion comprises six sections in several volumes. Of the Plantes équinoxiales the 2. volume dealing with Quercus, etc. not present. With a map of the valley of Mexico (not mentioned in the bibliographies). The title-page of Monographie des Melastomes according to Stafleu & Cowan missing. This Schoell-issue as well as the London edition remained incomplete. Both works are finely illustrated by Pierre Jean François Turpin and Pierre-Antoine Poiteau and were engraved by Sellier and Bouquet. The first work with plain illustrations and the second with splendid stipple-engraved colour-plates finished by hand. Blunt about the French botanical artists: “Pierre Jean François Turpin (1775-1840) was possibly the greatest botanical genius of all the French botanical painters of his day. The son of a poor artisan, he learned the elements of drawing in the art school of his home town, Vire. At the age of fourteen he joined up in the batallion du Calvados, and five years later was shipped to San Domingo. Here he had the good fortune to make the acquaintance of a young botanist named Pierre-Antoine Poiteau (1766-1854) who fired him with an enthusiam for natural history and became his lifelong friend. After various vicissitudes, Turpin met the German naturalist and explorer von Humboldt in New York in 1801, and the following year the two men returned together to France where they were joined by Poiteau. Turpin and Poiteau collaborated in some of the most important botanical publications of the early years of the nineteenth century, notably those of von Humboldt, Bonpland and Kunth. … In all these productions Turpin was the dominant force. In particular, his drawings of botanical details have rarely been surpassed. ...”
