Description:
Heilbronn:: Franciscus Josephus Eckebrecht, 1767., 1767. Tall 4to. (335 x 211 mm) 228, [4] pp. 47 plates; text with some foxing. Original paper over boards. Housed in a custom clamshell box. Rare. FINE. An extensive work on the morphology of boned fish, cartilaginous fish (sharks, rays, skates) and cetaceans. This work is illustrated with forty-seven full-page engraved plates that are executed in superb form. Plate XLII shows a beached baleen whale and its enormous size, compared to the men in the engraving. A bit fanciful, plate XL shows a pair of Mermen; a fish on plate XXVII has the features of a human face whilst a 'shark' on plate VII has semi-human fore-limbs. Except for these anomalies, the zoological drawings are quite dramatic and relatively accurate. Jonston's works were frequently re-edited and translated into German, Latin, Dutch and English. Born in Poland, but of Scottish origin, Jonston was educated and traveled extensively. He attended St. Andrews (1623-5), studying botany and…
