Condition: Fine. This artistically composed, scientific folio engraving is from Albertus Sebaâs "Locupletissimi rerum naturalium thesauri accurata descriptio, et iconibus artificiosissimis expressio, per universam physices historiam". The work was published in Amsterdam between 1734 and 1765. Plates from volumes 1 & 2 were publi…shed by Janssonio-Waesbergios, & J. Wetstenium, & Gul. Smith; Volume 3 by Janssonio-Waesbergios; Volume 4 by H. C. Arkesteum and H. Merkum, Peter Schouten. --- Seba utilized leading scientists to aid in creating "Locupletissimiâ¦" including H. Boerhaave, P. van Musschenbroek, P. Massuet, H. D. Graubius, and P. Artedi. The work was considered the finest published Wunderkammer, or Cabinet of Curiosities. --- Seba developed an interest in exotic species from his travels on the East and West Indies and purchases from world travelers. He exploited his relationship with the Dutch East India Company to advance his collection thus gathering specimens from Sri Lanka, Greenland, Indonesia, Brazil, and other far-flung places. Many of the plates from the work depicted specimens from Sebaâs own collection. The sensational engravings are both scientifically accurate and aesthetically appealing. --- Sebaâs âcabinet of curiositiesâ included beautiful and bizarre subjects and attracted many natural historians, including Carl Linnaeus. Sebaâs cabinet played an important part in the Linnaeus classification of the natural world. Maria Sybilla Merian also utilized his cabinet to complete her great work on Surinamese insects. Not lacking humor, Seba placed fake specimens in his cabinet including a seven-headed hydra in order to attract attention. Some of Sebaâs original collection is still on display in museums around the world. --- The work is in very good to excellent condition overall. There may be a few minor imperfections or faint marks to be expected with age. Some of the plates from the work may occasionally have some text offset. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions. --- Paper Size ~ 13 1/4" by 19 1/2".
