PATTERN BOOK.:[PAYNE, JOHN, engraver. 1607-1647.] Animalium quadrupedum, auium, florum, fructuum, muscarum et vermium omnis generis verae delineationes.... [London]: Roger Daniel, c.1630.
Oblong folio (290 x 183 mm). Engraved title page and 19 engraved plates. Modern brown morocco antique. Covers slightly warped, plates and engraved title trimmed to image borders and laid down on old laid paper, some with partial hand-coloring, a few chips and tears into image areas, light spotting and toning.

Though the plates are not signed by Payne, this appears to be a later edition of Payne\'s Flora, published by Roger Daniel under the dual Latin and English titles \"Animalium quadrupedum, auium, florum, fructuum, muscarum et vermium omnis generis verae delineationes in æes incisae. mdah; A booke of beast, birds, flowers, fruits, flies, and wormes, exactly drawne with their liuely colours truly described.\" This edition formed the basis for Roger Walton\'s pattern book A View of the Creation (1666), which copies the plates from this edition very closely. Payne studied engraving under the Dutch masters William and Simon van de Passe, and his flowers are copied from Crispijn van de Passe\'s Altera Pars (1603-1605). The animals are derived from Joris Hoefnagel\'s Archetypa studaque (1592).

MOFFETT, THOMAS. 1553-1604.:Insectorum sive Minimorum animalium theatrum. London: Thomas Cotes for William Hope, 1634.
Folio (297 x 194 mm). Large woodcut vignette on title, numerous woodcut illustrations (including 4 unnumbered full-pages at end). Contemporary calf, rebacked. Covers scuffed, light soiling around edges of title, scattered browning and spotting.
Provenance: Arthur Hugh Smith-Barry [Anglo-Irish Baron, 1843-1925] (Marbury Hall bookplates); Oliver Howard [English bookseller and Managing Director of Bernard Quaritch, 1905-1961] (bookplate).

FIRST EDITION of \"the first book about insects published in Britain\" (Salmon, Aurelian Legacy, p 95). Compiled in the late 16th century by Moffett, who is often mistakenly said to have used a microscope in his observations, but in fact made the highly accurate woodcuts with the naked eye. Sir Theodore Turquet de Mayerne published the work posthumously from the manuscript, which is preserved today in the British Library. The illustration of the American Swallowtail on p 98 is the first printed representation of an American butterfly. There are three variant imprints, this example with p 48 incorrectly numbered 52, but these variants do not indicate a chronology — simply that the edition was shared among booksellers.

4 volumes in two. 4to (375 x 226 mm). 120 engraved hand-colored plates. Morocco-backed, marbled-paper boards, 2nd volume, containing just volume 4 (1806) slightly smaller.
Provenance: Von Redern, Berlin (armorial bookplate, and stamp to title, in volume 1).

FIRST COMPLETE FOLIO EDITIONS OF ZOOLOGIA DANICA. Otto Muller began the comprehensive Zoologia Danica in 1779, intending it as a complete look at the fauna similar to his Flora Danica, completed with G.C. Oeder. He published two octavo volumes with the title Zoologiae Danicae prodromus before his death. The project was expanded to folio and two additional volumes added between 1788 and 1806. Although the work never fulfilled his vision, it does contain pictures and descriptions of a number of new species of mollusks and zoophytes. See Knight, English Cyclopedia, p 381.
