"This work was originally undertaken by E. R. Genouville, and the first part was issued in April 1820; but on his death it was taken up by Godart, who recast and re-issued the text for that part in Sept. 1820 <Bibl. France, 1820, pp. 225 & 477> introducing thereby the extra sheet (3 his). At Godarts̓ death in 1825, Duponchel continued the work, beginning with tom. VI."--British mus. (Nat. hist.) Catalogue.
