The collector Mr. Robert de Belder had both knowledge and means. He also had and took opportunities: he secured many of the very best copies from the Arpad Plesch collection the Massachusetts Horticultural Library virtually the entire rare book collection from the Horticultural Society of New York as well as many other distinguished collections. Single-handedly and single-mindedly he created the greatest private collection of botanical books in the world-the equal of all but a handful of institutional holdings. From this treasure-house the chief monuments of botanical illustration from the period 1600-1900 documenting the evolution of botanical art have been selected.". Sotheby's Hardcover
