Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Large Folio (396 x 261 mm). 40 pp., 930 (i.e. 932) columns, 64 pp., text printed in two columns, half title to each part (second misbound after col. 516)), letterpress title printed in red and black and with engraved vignette, engraved additional title by J. Baptiste Monnoyer after Jan Goeree, engraved head- and tailpieces, woodcut initials, 243 etched and engraved plates. Contemporary blind-stamped vellum, spine with morocco lettering piece (binding restored, vellum soiled, boards rubbed and slightly bowed). Text and plates very little browned, occasional very minor spotting, first 6 leaves slightly frayed at corners and with light waterstain at blank fore-margin, a few leaves with torn lower corner, ink scribbling to one page and plate 129, plate 136 soiled at fore-margin. A very fine copy, collated & complete. ---- Nissen, BBI 1428; Hunt 396; Pritzel 6556; De Belder 252. FIRST EDITION under this title and a much enlarged version of Munting's less copiously illustrated Waare of ening der planten (1672). The unusual plates depict plants set in or floating above landscape backgrounds. "The plates are as curious as their subjects. They commonly present the plants far larger than life, oranges huge as pumpkins, cyclamens with heavy corms floating lightly in mid-air, gentle geraniums grown into giant trees. The effect is obtained through sketching in classical or idyllic [including some very Dutch views] or mountainous little landscapes below." (Hunt). Abraham Munting (1626-1683) was professor of botany at the University of Groningen and the son of Hendrik Munting who created the botanical garden of "Paradijs van Groningen" in 1642. Abraham Munting enlarged the garden and this work portrays plants growing in it. - Visit our website for additional images and information.

First Edition
Two volumes, folio. (15 5/16 x 10 1/4 inches). Half title, title printed in red and black with engraved vignette. Engraved additional title and 243 engraved plates. Contemporary Dutch blindstamped vellum with arabesque design. Provenance: Karl Magnussun (bookplate) - John David Drummond, 8th Earl of Perth, Viscount Strathallan, 1907-2002 First expanded edition of one of the most attractive Dutch florilegia of the seventeenth century. Munting was professor of botany at the University of Groningen, and took over and enlarged the botanic garden founded by his father, Henricus. The present work depicts some of the exotic and remarkable plants growing in the garden. It is one of the earliest and most important documents concerning Japanese flora and its importation into the West, predating Thunbergs works by almost one hundred years. "Munting wrote a number of works on medical-botanical topics, but his posthumously published opus magnum, the Naauwkeurige, enjoyed particular success, at least in part due to the novelty of the plates, which in a radical departure from the iconography of the traditional florilegium, presented its plant species against a charming series of landscape backgrounds . The illustrations are remarkable for their elegance and originality" (Oak Spring Flora). The initial botanical line drawings are now known to have been by about ten different but unidentified artists. Some time after Munting's death, and in preparation for their publication, these line drawings had tone and the pictorial back- and fore-grounds added by Jan Goeree (1670-1731) under the supervision of the publishers. The engraving and etching was then carried out by Jacob Gole and Joseph Mulder, engraver of many of plates in Maria Sibylla Merians work on the insects of Surinam.

Book First Edition
First edition. Folio. 243 richly engraved botanical plates depicting specific genus of flora, as well as numerous decorated head & tail pieces, and a magnificent frontispiece after Jan Goeree. Near contemporary full calf, this being professionally rebacked, with old spine laid down, red & black title, with some slight soiling to some of the rear index pages, but otherwise a lovely bright example. [xxxiv], 929, [64]pp. Abraham Munting (1626-1683) was a leading botanist of his day. Despite being published posthumously, this florilegium represented the pinnacle of his work. Based at the University of Groningen, in a garden inherited from his father Henricus, he dedicated much of his life to the development and study of exotic plants from across the globe. Colleagues sent seeds of plants from the Dutch East and West Indies, South Africa, the Americas, etc. which Munting cultivated in the garden. The plates which depict these specimens are unattributed, with a single exception, lettered 'Mulder Fecit' - Joseph Mulder (Dutch, 1659/60 - 1710 after) was an engraver active in Amsterdam. 'Munting wrote a number of works on medical-botanical topics, but his posthumously published opus magnum, the Naauwkeurige, enjoyed particular success, at least in part due to the novelty of the plates, which in a radical departure from the iconography of the traditional florilegium, presented its plant species against a charming series of landscape backgrounds. The illustrations are remarkable for their elegance and originality. The sophisticated title-page was designed by an artist of considerable merit, Jan Goeree (1670-1731), who had been a student of Gérard de Laresse. Each plate shows a different plant in flower, including many exotic species from America and other distant lands. The plant dominates the foreground, filling the entire page, often with a detail of the fruit or flower presented on a smaller scale. In some cases the plants are presented à tromple l'oeil, while in others they have been arranged in decorated urns. Sometimes gardening tools are depicted as well. The name of each plant appears written on an elegantly fluttering ribbon or cartouche, or on a crumbling marble plaque' (Tomasi, An Oak Spring Flora 45). Hunt 396; Nissen BBI 1428; Oak Spring Flora 45.
