First Edition. Two vols, folio (c.350 x 248mm), comprising 156 unsigned original watercolour plates (77 in vol.I, 79 in vol.II), each image within double-ruled frame with neatly written caption in French above (a few without captions), a blank leaf facing each plate; on thick Dutch paper with Strasbourg lily watermarks of C.& I.Honig, I.Villedary, VDL, and LVG (see Churchill 405408 and 411, dated 1730s60s); very occasional light marks and minor spotting; very well preserved in contemporary French red morocco, borders triple-filleted in gilt, spines richly gilt in compartments with gilt green morocco lettering- and numbering-pieces, board-edges and turn-ins roll-tooled in gilt, edges gilt, marbled endpapers; very neat repairs to endcaps and corners, a few very light marks to covers; gilt arms of Jérôme-Frédéric Bignon to covers (Olivier pl.872), his autograph signature to front free endpapers, a few brief ink notes facing some of the plates likely by Bignon, later blue ink stamp with Bignon arms to 6 of the plates; gilt morocco book label of Laurent Meeûs, with motto 'Hic liber est meus', to front pastedown of vol.I, and armorial bookplate of Carleton R.Richmond to front pastedown of both volumes.A truly stunning collection of over 150 original eighteenth-century botanical watercolours, attributed to the noted Dutch botanical artist Pieter van Loo (17311784). Born at Haarlem in the Netherlands, Loo spent most of his life in his native city where he was registered with the Painters Guild as a 'painter of flowers'. He is perhaps best known for his watercolours of hyacinths, a collection of which entitled 'Choix de Jacintes' and comprising thirteen images by Loo and Cornelis van Noorde painted between 1765 and 1769 is preserved at the Oak Spring Garden Library in Virginia. The vibrantly coloured and beautifully executed images here run in more or less alphabetical order from 'l'Asther à fleur blanche' to 'la Gimauve' in volume I, and from 'Hépatique' to 'Verveine' in volume II, each set neatly within a ruled frame, through which they occasionally burst as in the case of 'Chelidoine de l'Amerique' with considerable exuberance. Of particular note in the first volume are the artist's depictions of anemone, cornflower, Gros Blanquet pear, sunflower, cyclamen, cotton, sugarcane, honeysuckle, pomegranate, and various geraniums. The second volume includes especially beautiful renderings of hibiscus, jasmines, irises, mallow leaves, an orange branch, roses, rhubarb, euphorbia, and tomatoes. Provenance: 1. From the library of Jérôme-Frédéric Bignon (17471784), who succeeded his father as royal librarian to Louis XV in 1770. Bignon was clearly interested in horticulture, adding an orangery to the château du Plessis-Piquet which he purchased in 1776. Sold at the Bignon sale of 8 January 1849, lot 547 ('Recueil de 156 planches représentant les principales plantes dessinées et peintes avec le plus grand soin sur papier fort'). 2. Late nineteenth-century or early twentieth-century collector's mark 'GL' (not in Lugt) to verso of front free endpapers. 3.

Carleton Rubira Richmond (18871975), the Bostonian businessman, collector, and President of the American Antiquarian Society, with his armorial bookplate to the upper pastedowns. 5.

Pieter Van Loo (or Loon), Haarlem 1731-1784, was a noted flower painter who spent the whole of his life in Haarlem. His paintings are sought after and are found in leading institutions such as the Albertina in Vienna, the Fitzwilliam, Cambridge, and Oak Spring, Virginia. We are grateful to Polly Nicholson, author of The Tulip Garden, and holder of the national historic tulips collection, for providing more details on these watercolours: The original species hyacinths are native to the eastern Mediterranean, and, like tulips, were collected in their thousands from the wild and hybridised by successive Ottoman emperors; their elegant sprays are a recurring motif of Iznikware from the 1500s. Reaching Western Europe in the sixteenth-century, they were grown by Carolus Clusius at the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden (c.1593), and were illustrated in Gerard's Herbal of 1597 Crispin de Passe's Hortus Floridus of 1615. By the end of the eighteenth century the hyacinth had become a popular 'Florists' flower', that was exhibited at flower shows in England, and also beloved of gardeners who grew it in borders or forced it indoors. Today historic hyacinths can still be seen at Hortus Bulborum, a living museum of tulips, narcissus and hyacinths at Limmen, north of Amsterdam; this is where I first chanced upon the old varieties, when on a trip to see tulips. The hyacinth holds the honour of being the only flower described in the novels of Jane Austen, appearing in Northanger Abbey 'I have just learnt to love a hyacinthâĤ I saw them the other day in Milsom-street' said Catherine Morland to Henry Tilney. Being Bath born and bred (fourth generation of George Bayntun, the antiquarian booksellers) this appeals to me! These exquisitely observed, fully-double hyacinths painted in watercolour by the botanical painter Pieter Van Loo are larger than life, and it is rare to find a set of three together. Cf. Tomasi, An Oak Spring Flora, Oak Spring Garden Founation, 1998 (revised edition), item 77.
