Bien complet de la Table de l'ordre des chiens (vol. V). « Les amateurs recherchent cette première édition in-4 des œuvres de Buffon, à cause de la beauté des gravures qu'elle contient ; mais il est très difficile de se procurer des exemplaires dont tous les volumes soient également pourvus de bonnes épreuves et cela parce que l'ouvrage ayant été publié dans l'espace de 50 ans, beaucoup de personnes ont négligé de retirer les volumes à mesure qu'ils paraissaient. » (Brunet). L'ouvrage comprend 4 parties dues à Buffon avec la collaboration notamment de Louis J. M. Daubenton et de Ph. Guéneau de Montbeillard, et 3 parties de complément publiées par Lacépède après la mort du naturaliste.

Histoire naturelle générale et particulière, 1749-1767 ; 15 volumes. 2. Histoire naturelle. Supplément, 1774-1789 ; 3 volumes. 3. Histoire naturelle des Oiseaux, 1770-1783 ; 9 volumes. 4.

Cétacés. L'an XII Une des œuvres les plus ambitieuses et les plus complètes de la littérature scientifique, ce premier survol général, sous forme accessible, de l'Histoire naturelle, donnait à celle-ci ses lettres de noblesse. Le succès de l'entreprise fut immédiat, éclatant et durable ; la première édition, tirée à 1 000 exemplaires, fut épuisée en 6 semaines. "In 1739 Buffon was appointed Director of the Jardin du Roi. It would appear that the "Natural History" germinated in the preparation of a catalogue of the royal collection. Buffon then enlarged its scope to Aristotelian or Plinian proportions and finally transformed it into a conspectus of nature of a breadth and depth previously unknown. The Natural History was a great popular success" (PMM). Commencée par Buffon et terminée avec la collaboration de Daubenton et Lacépède, cette somme fait de ces naturalistes des Lumières des précurseurs dans des domaines de pointe comme le transformisme, la biogéographie, l'écologie, l'anatomie comparée, l'éthologie et la paléontologie. Exceptionnel exemplaire complet des 45 volumes reliés en maroquin rouge de l'époque.…
