The famous caricaturist Jean-Jacques Grandville brings this enchanting plant life to life through some fifty admirable plates of poetry and wit, where you can admire Pansy, Violet, Sunflower, Lily and Poppy. \u003cbr\u003eIn a second volume, Count Foelix, one of Louis-François Raban's pseudonyms, offers a manual that is as practical as it is entertaining for introducing students to botany and horticulture. Rosalie de Constant, a brilliant naturalist of the Enlightenment, brings liveliness and depth to the species collected.\u003cbr\u003e Our illustrated edition is based on the 1867 Garnier Frères edition, which includes the engravings by J.-J. Grandville, to which we have added a selection from the plates in Rosalie de Constant's herbarium. It is revised, annotated, and prefaced by Audrey Dominguez. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"contributors-wrapper\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49386079093060,"sku":"31433","price":37.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/files\/fleursanimees.jpg?v=1728045921","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/les-fleurs-animees","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
