1788 Handcoloured engraved plate drawn by Redouté and engraved by François Hubert, broadsheet or large imperial folio (45 x 60 cm). Uncut. With marginal, unobtrusive small traces of watercolour, which makes me believe that this plate (and the other ten I have for sale) were used as examples for the colourists. At the back there are traces of glue which are not not affecting the front (stuck to a support for the colourists?). We also have for sale the general title-page and the title-pages of the first and second installments, and plates by Fossier and Freret.A beautiful plate after drawings by the young Pierre Joseph Redouté (1759-1840), then not yet 25 years old. This one is taken from the very rare deluxe large paper and hand-coloured edition of this work, with plates coloured by Piere Redouté and his brother Henri-Joseph Redouté. In 1965 about 44 copies of the work were known of which 9 incomplete, and of 31 studied only 11 were large-sized.In Stirpes novae Charles L'Héritier de Brutelle (1746-1800) described a great number of new species, many of which grew in his own garden, the gardens of his friends and in the Jardin du Roi. He had ample means and engaged the young Redouté to draw the majority of the plates (54 out of 91). The two developed a close friendship and L'Héritier taught Redouté the basics of plant taxonomy and dissection. The friendship proved a determining factor in Redouté's career and enabled him to fully develop his extraordinary talents. See: Günther Buchheim, 1965. A bibliographical account of L'Héritier's 'Stirpes novae'.

Remarquable étude, avec une très ample bibliographie. — "Une œuvre, non d'un simple vulgarisateur de seconde main, mais d'un historien méthodique. M. Héritier a voulu écrire, non une biographie stricte comme feu J.-H. Mariéjol, ni une histoire du temps de Catherine de Médicis, mais une « synthèse » de la vie et des actions de son personnage, qu'il s'est efforcé de replacer dans son siècle et qu'il s'interdit d'expliquer à l'aide d'autre chose que les idées, la mentalité de ce siècle. En fait, les 731 pages de cette « synthèse » contiennent bien des analyses, ou des contributions analytiques. On ne s'en plaindra pas, car ces morceaux sont sérieux, généralement bien informés, même lorsqu'il s'agit des relations du gouvernement de Paris avec Elizabeth d'Angleterre et du projet de mariage de François, duc d'Anjou, même lorsqu'il s'agit de l'affaire de Portugal et des négociations compliquées menées par Catherine avec son gendre de l'Escorial. Il a annexé à son travail une copieuse Orientation bibliographique (39 pages). Cette « orientation » est en réalité un aperçu fort ample sur l'ensemble des sources et de la bibliographie concernant non seulement Catherine de Médicis, mais bien l'histoire générale et particulière de toute la période française 1560-1589. On y relèvera peu de lacunes. Le volume est de lecture attachante. Une Catherine de Médicis femme, mère et « gouvernante », un peu systématique, très vivante cependant, se dessine clairement devant l'esprit du lecteur. M. Héritier atteint donc son objet et son gros ouvrage se classera certainement à un bon rang dans la collection à laquelle il l'a donné." (H. Drouot, Revue d'histoire de l'Église de France, 1941) — "Par une singulière coïncidence le livre de M. Jean Héritier, qui évoque la période du plus grand déchirement français – les guerres de Religion – jusqu’en 1940, parut précisément en 1940 et fut presque aussitôt épuisé. Son livre apparaît comme un tableau fort complet, disposé dans les perspectives les plus variées autour d’un portrait très approfondi : celui du personnage central, qui anime et domine toute la peinture. Que ce personnage soit une femme contribue sans doute à donner à ce récit, d’une stricte rigueur historique, son caractère émouvant, pathétique. La formule consacrée n’est certes pas de complaisance ici : cela se lit comme un roman, et le plus passionnant des romans. Nulle femme pourtant ne fut moins romanesque que Catherine de Médicis, au sens où on l’entend des héroïnes féminines, puisque son biographe peut dire d’elle qu’elle n’avait jamais eu d’aventure amoureuse. Sa seule passion de femme, mais violente et de grandes conséquences politiques, fut le sentiment maternel. Il faut noter aussi un attachement conjugal réel, solide, mais trop dénoué ; le destin fit de Catherine non une épouse, mais une mère royale, et plus véritablement : un roi..."
