POITEAU, A. and P. TURPIN.
Traité des arbres Fruitiers (Treatise of the Fruit Trees), Nouvelle Edition.
Published by H. Perronneau for T. Delachausée, Paris 1807-1835.
Charming stipple engraving of Apples, the plate printed in colours and finished by hand; engraved by Giraud after drawings by P.F.J. Turpin.
'One of the finest and rarest books on fruit' (Dunthorne p.192). This series takes its title from Duhamel's Traité of 1768; it is however an independent work and was intended as Poiteau and Turpin's homage to the earlier work. A team of over twenty engravers was involved. The colour printing was by Langlois, the great French colour-printer who supervised much of Barraband’s and Redouté's work.
