Very good copy of Volume LXXIII (73) of the whole series (Volume 3 of the Third Series) of Curtis's Botanical Magazine, 1847.
Complete with all 70 (13 folding) hand-coloured botanical plates (No. 4275-4344).
All plates drawn and lithographed by the prolific botanical artist Walter Hood Fitch.
Includes many exotic flowers and plants including the giant Victoria water lily, Java rhododendron, peyote cactus, mottlecah eucolyptus, hibiscus, pitcairnia, jalap, pitcher plant, etc. With several species of orchids including Cattleya, Vanda, Anguloa, Bulbophyllum, Phalaenopsis and Dendrophylax.
The dynamic illustrations of flowers and leaves take up the whole plate, and are crammed with details of the seeds and fruits.
Sir William Jackson Hooker (1785-1865) was one of the great botanists, professor at Glasgow University and later director of Kew Gardens in 1841. He edited Curtis's Botanical Magazine from 1826 onwards, and brought in talented young fabric printer Walter Hood Fitch in 1834.
Walter Hood Fitch (1817-1892) was a botanical artist from Glasgow, Scotland, who drew over 10,000 botanical illustrations in his long and productive working career. He drew some 2,700 lithographic plates for Curtis's Botanical Magazine over a period of more than 40 years, only leaving in 1877 after a pay dispute with new editor Joseph Dalton Hooker (Sir William's son).
Contemporary full leather binding, spine with red and black leather title labels, gilt decoration, front hinge cracking and leather dry, but book block solid. All botanical plates bright and clean with vibrant hand colour, all with tissue guards, a few with slight spotting at the folds, dust at the edges. Ink stamp of the "Royal Society of Edinburgh" on title page.
