Annales de Pomologie (Brussels 1853 - 1860) "Cerises Lemercier" Original lithograph from the collection entitled "Annales de Pomologie" published in Brussels by the Commission Royale de Pomologie from 1853 to 1860. Nice copy with a very slight offsetting effect on the part low and an oblique scratch on the left edge away from the figured field but overall in excellent general condition, enhanced by the brilliant editorial coloring in watercolor and tempera with shellac raises. The "Annales de Pomologie" are generally considered among the most important and rare natural history publications of the European nineteenth century. Bibliography: "Catalog of the books manuscripts maps and drawings in the British Museum (Natural History)" London, 1903, vol.1 pag.128. Measurements in mm: 380 x 278
