Copy richly illustrated with drawings by Jacques de Sève engraved by Robert de Launay Lucas Michel Madeleine-Thérèse Rousselet C. Baron Hubert Catherine Haussard Carl Gottlieb Guttenberg Jean-Guillaume Blanchon Menil Dufour Louis Claude Legrand Claude Mathieu Fessard Elisabeth Haussard François Hubert A.-B. Duhamel Mlle Mansard C. Baquoy Heinrich Guttenberg Laurent Guyot Benazeth Schmitz Marie-Anne Rousselet M. R. veuve Tardieu Louis-Gabriel Monnier Pierre-Étienne Moitte Jean-Louis de Lignon Levillain N. du Four Thomas Chambars Nicolas Thomas Luigi Valperga and George Louis Biosse. Accompanied by two additional plates heightened in color numbered XX and XXII from a volume 7 of the Histoire naturelle des oiseaux. The illustrator Jacques de Sève's main work was unquestionably the Histoire naturelle générale et particulière for which he executed nearly 2000 drawings. Unlike the illustrations he produced for other sections of Buffon's monumental work made primarily from stuffed specimens his work on birds was essentially executed from living models. To accomplish this vast project Jacques de Sève drew inspiration from the works of the king's ""Peintre ordinaire"" Jean-Baptiste Oudry. This judicious decision won him the favor of the queen a great admirer of the master of animal painting. By incorporating small Boucher-style putti in the introductory vignettes of certain volumes of the Histoire naturelle des oiseaux Sève also gained the good graces of the king's mistress. These illustrations at once decorative and scholarly which appear in the present first edition were not retained in the duodecimo edition. A superb complete copy of Georges-Louis Leclerc de Buffon's Histoire naturelle des oiseaux by the French Pliny. As Ferdinand Hoefer wrote this work maintains the same ""magnificence of style"" as the other publications in the Histoire naturelle générale et particulière. Imprimerie royale hardcover

While ideally it will complete a collection of the Crapelet-Deterville Buffon set it also stands as a wonderful single volume with 15-double paned illustrations of many four-legged animals. Georges-Louis Leclerc Count of Buffon 1707-1788 produced his encyclopedic work of 36 volumes over the course of 50 years and is known as one of the chief naturalists of the 18th century. Among other paradigm-changing contributions to understanding the natural world Buffon's works challenged calculation that the world was 6 000 years old and his claim of the superiority of European flora and fauna to that of North America affronted Thomas Jefferson so much that he sent examples to Europe in order to disprove Buffon's assertion.
