This milestone in color printing provided artists with a technique that equalled in subtlety the original watercolor painting's richness, delicacy and beauty. Poiteau, working with R dout 's printer, Langlois, achieved a superb realistic and tactile quality with his remarkable fruit pictures. A well-recognized botanist and pomologist, Poiteau also contributed a scientific accuracy to this work never before achieved or since equalled. It is among the last great folios of fine stipple engravings from this era. We are pleased to offer this major collection of Poiteau's work.
Every print is in excellent condition.
They are still reasonably priced.
