Alliaceae - Allium ampeloprasum. From: English botany; or, coloured figures of British plants by James Edward Smith. London, C.E. Sowerby, 1836, 2. edition, volume 3, plate 473. Hand-coloured engraving by James Sowerby (sheet 128 x 218 mm). Slight foxing. Text enclosed in photocopy. € 30 One of the most celebrated of all British floras is Sowerby’s English botany. This periodical publication, issued in 267 numbers, and published in thirty-six volumes between 1790 and 1814, contains 2,592 beautifully coloured illustrations of plants most of which are drawn and engraved by James Sowerby. The plates are accompanied by descriptive letterpress written by the eminent botanist James Edward Smith, … (Henrey II p. 141).

James Sowerby was the first of several members of this family who became noted as authors and illustrators of books on natural history. * Nissen BBI 2225; Great flower books p. 76; Henrey 1369; Stafleu & Cowan 12.221.

Alliaceae - Allium caeruleum. From: Flore des serres et des jardins de l’Europe by Charles Lemaire and others. Gand [Gent], Louis van Houtte, 1847, volume 3, plate 300. Hand-coloured lithograph (sheet 160 x 235 mm). Text enclosed. € 55 The founder, publisher and part-editor of this lavish Belgian periodical was Louis van Houtte, the propietor of the largest nursery of its time on the continent. It appeared monthly for almost 40 years and was published by his own printing office in the middle of the gardens, the Horto van Houtteano. All the plants shown were for sale in his nursery and include many exotics. The work is notable for the craftmanship of the Belgian lithographers Severeyns, Stroobant and De Pannemaker, who had mastered the art of colour-printing from stone. * Nissen BBI 2254; Great flower books p. 84; Stafleu & Cowan 15.921.

Alliaceae - Allium caspium. From: Le jardin fleuriste, journal général des progrès et des intérêts horticoles et botaniques by Charles Lemaire (editor). Gand [Gent], F. et E. Gyselynck, 1852, volume 2, plate 176. Chromolithograph finished by hand (sheet 163 x 244 mm). Text enclosed. € 50 Lemaire (1800-1871), was a French botanist and specialist on Cactaceae. He worked in Belgium as editor of several important botanical publications, such as the Flore des serres and l'Illustration horticole. Le jardin fleuriste was published from 1851 to 1854 in 4 volumes and is beautifully illustrated, sometimes with large folding plates, which have double numbers. It has a definite preference for the exotic plants, suitable only for the hot-house in northern Europe. In the first half of the 19th century colour-printing from stone dominated the scene of botanical illustration and the Belgian lithographers reached the ultimate in craftmanship, in a period that Belgium was one of the main horticultural centres in Europe. * Pritzel 10.776; Nissen BBI 2338; Great flower books p. 85; Stafleu & Cowan 4376.
