Sale 2563 - Lot 216
Estimate: $ 2,000 - $ 3,000
Hooke, Robert (1635-1703)
Micrographia Restaurata.
London: Printed and Sold by John Bowles, R. Dodsley, and John Cuff, Optician, in Fleetstreet, 1745.
Folio, illustrated with thirty-three large engravings (thirty full-paged and three folding), with many contemporary marginal drawings and notes throughout by an English scientist whose initials may be C.M. (on leaf C, our annotator has added an M to the C), including corrections to some of Dr. Baker's conclusions, and sketches of his own microscopic observations, bound in contemporary boards, worn and repaired, 14 x 9 in.
It should come as no surprise that the louse, flea, and house fly occupy the large and detailed folding plates in this groundbreaking work. The additional information added by our contemporary and as yet unidentified scientist contextualize the work in a unique way.
ESTC T73384.
Provenance: from the Stephen White Collection.
