1835 Scarce Large Folio Hand-Colored Copper-Plate Stipple-Engravingby Pierre Jean François Turpin, from: POMOLOGIE FRANÇAISERECUEILdes PLUS BEAUX FRUITSCULTIVÉS EN FRANCE PAR A. POITEAU Pl. 325 Amandier franc (Almond or French Almond) This spectacular Folio Almond plate originates from Duhamel du Monceau’s Traité des arbres fruitiers (Treatise on Fruit Trees, full title Nouveau Duhamel, ou Traité des arbres et arbustes que l’on cultive en France), expanded by Poiteau and Turpin, published in parts from 1807-1835. It was republished ten years later in 1845, after Turpin’s death, reprinted from the original copper plates with the new title Pomologie Française under the name of Poiteau on his own, with Turpin’s name removed from all but 10 plates. This is one of a group of 6 huge Almond engravings from this work I’m presently listing. Tho I’m not certain which of the two editions these came from, the few plates I’ve seen of this very large tall-paper set are from the original, 1835 1st edition. They are spectacular, some of the most amazing botanical works I’ve ever had the pleasure of collecting. This plate is extremely scarce. It’s a truly stunning plate from an incredibly beautiful portfolio, displaying the lush, soft, hyper-real painting style associated with Pierre-Joseph Redouté & Pierre Jean François Turpin, cut into copper with Redouté’s famed Stipple-Engraving technique that imparted fine toning more closely duplicating his original watercolor paintings, & expertly inked with subtle colors in the plate & pressed into thick, handmade rag paper. The Volumes:These monumental volumes contain the exquisite work of the two great watercolorists, Turpin and Poiteau, as well as several other engravers; together 422 stipple-engraved plates cover the varieties of fruits & nuts including almonds, peaches, pears, apples, plums, cherries, strawberries, and grapes. This 6 volume edition contains non-consecutive plate numbers as they are in the order of the original 66 livraisons.The new edition by Antoine Poiteau and Pierre-Jean-François Turpin of Duhamel’s 1768 work is certainly one of the most exceptional botanical books produced in France during the great era of botanical writing. Poiteau was a pupil of Redouté and head gardener of the castle of Fontainebleau. He travelled widely in the Caribbean and South America, where he met Turpin in Haiti, and brought back 1,200 species to France. Pierre-Jean-François Turpin was a self-taught artist, and one of the finest and most prolific botanic illustrators of the Napoleonic era. In 1846 the present work was re-issued as the Pomologie française with Poiteau’s name on the title, but Turpin’s removed from all but 10 of the plates. “One of the finest and rarest books on fruit, with many beautiful plates” (Dunthorne). The Artist:Pierre Jean François Turpin (11 March 1775, Vire – 1 May 1840) was a French botanist and illustrator.[1] He is considered one of the greatest floral and botanical illustrators during the Napoleonic Era and afterwards. As an artist, Turpin was largely self-taught. In 1794 he was stationed in Haiti as a member of the French Army. Here he met botanist Pierre Antoine Poiteau (1766-1854), through whom, Turpin learned botany, and in the meantime, created numerous botanical field drawings that were to become a basis of further study when the two men returned to France. In regard to their work in Haiti, they were able to describe approximately 800 species of plants. Turpin would have a working relationship with Poiteau throughout his career. The Prints & Technique:In this print the technique of color stipple engraving is used to reproduce the delicate flowers & leaves. Redouté learned about the potential of stipple engraving on his visit to England in 1786 and experimented with and perfected the method on his return to France. He promoted the technique as effective in recreating the sheen of the leaves and petals found in his original watercolors.Redouté’s technique, modeled upon that of van Spaendonck, involved “pure water colour, gradated with infinite subtlety and very occasionally touched with body-color to suggest sheen” (Blunt 1967, 179). Redouté eventually perfected the reproduction of his paintings for publication using stipple engraving, which used dots, rather than lines, to engrave plates, with varying dot density being used to convey tone and shading (Blunt 1967). Condition:Appears to be in Excellent condition for a 189-year-old engraving. The hand-coloring À la poupée appears to remain as beautiful as the day it was printed. The delicate shimmering effect of the leaves & atmospheric perspective rendered by the stipple-engraved toning & subtle coloring in the plate is remarkable. Very little age-toning. Minor wear & tear along extreme edges as is typical with plates this old. These prints are very old & may have imperfections expected with age, such as age-toning of the paper, oxidation of the old original watercolors, spots, text-offsetting, artifacts from having been bound into a book, etc. Please examine the photos & details carefully.Text Page(s): This one comes without the original text page. Included in the listing photos is a scan of a title pagE for reference which is not part of the listing. About this Gorgeous Tree:”Almondier Franc” is apparently a synonym for the almond (Prunus amygdalus, syn. Prunus dulcis).It’s a species of tree from the genus Prunus. Along with the peach, it is classified in the subgenus Amygdalus, distinguished from the other subgenera by corrugations on the shell (endocarp) surrounding the seed.The almond tree prospers in a moderate Mediterranean climate with cool winter weather.[4] Almond is rarely found wild in its original setting.Almonds were one of the earliest domesticated fruit trees, due to the ability to produce quality offspring entirely from seed, without using suckers and cuttings. Evidence of domesticated almonds in the Early Bronze Age has been found in the archeological sites of the Middle East, and subsequently across the Mediterranean region and similar arid climates with cool winters. Size: 21-1/2 x 14-1/4 inches approximately. Shipping: These large folios are generally shipped rolled in a tube, as it’s much less likely to be bent & damaged shipped flat. They’ll just need to be relaxed by laying them out flat for a bit & any curl flattens out. However, if you’d prefer them to be shipped flat please let me know. Multiple prints combine into one package. If you’d like to combine & need more time to choose, please send a message & we’ll do our best to oblige. If you’re assessed multiple shipping for one combined package, we’ll endeavor to refund any overage asap. Thanks for Visiting!
