Hemerocallidaceae - Hemerocallis flava
From: Herbier de la flore française by Louis Antoine Cusin & Edmonde Ansberque.
Procédé de reproduction dit phytoxygraphique. Publié sous le patronage du
Service du Parc et des Jardins de la ville de Lyon.
Lyon, 1876. Nature-printing with hand-coloured flower detail (sheet ca. 260 x 375 mm). Marginally partly
slightly stained. Without text as issued.€ 65
The plates are reproductions of
actual specimens and give the appearance of the plants very accurately. The
flower details are separately drawn at the bottom of most plates and
hand-coloured. … for though the photoxygraphic plates of the twenty-five
volumes of the Herbier de la Flore Française of Louis Antoine Cusin
(1824-1901) and Edme Ansberque (1828-1905), published at Lyons between 1867 and
1876, are of considerable botanic importance, they are aestetically
disappointing (Blunt & Stearn p. 142). However the plants are carefully
selected and nicely arranged. * Fischer, E.: Zweihundert Jahre
Naturselbstdruck 96; Nissen BBI 444 & I p. 248; Blunt & Stearn p. 142.
