Folio. (27 5/8 x 21 1/4 inches). Letterpress title (verso blank), 1p. dedication to Caleb Cope (verso blank), 12pp. text (numbered [5]-16); 1p. index, plate list, note and errata (verso blank). 6 chromolithographed plates by Sharp & Sons of Dorchester, Mass. (5 after William Sharp, 1 after Allen). Cloth-backed lettered paper boards. Housed in a green morocco backed box. A monument to American colour printing, a work which launched the age of chromolithography as an art in the United States, and one of the most beautiful flower books ever produced. The Victoria Regia; or the Great Water Lily of America, provides an appropriate showcase for this gigantic water lily, first discovered along the Amazon River and then taken to Britain for cultivation. The so-called "vegetable wonder" was first described by Sir R.H.Schomburg in 1837. From the details he gave, the botanist John Lindley suggested that the lily was a new genera and put forward the name Victoria Regia in honour of Queen Victoria during the first year of her reign. "The giant water-lily is a spectacular flower; nineteenth century commentators describe with amazement the vast dimensions of its floating leaves, which could exceed two meters in diameter, and its great white flower, which opened in the evening and closed again at dawn in a truly lovely spectacle" (Oak Spring Flora). In 1853, Allen, a well-respected horticulturalist and author of a treatise on viticulture, cultivated a seed from the water-lily given him by Caleb Cope, president of the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, and the man in whose garden the water-lily first flowered in America on 21 August 1851. Working at his home in Salem, Massachusetts, Allen tended the seed from January to July, when, on the evening of July 21st, the flower finally bloomed. Motivated by his success, Allen hoped to make the glory of the water-lily available to a wider audience, and engaged the services of William Sharp, a British-born artist and pioneer of chromolithography then working in Boston. Sharp had been practicing with the new technique of chromolithography as early as 1841, the first person to do so in the United States. His early efforts can be seen in Mattson's The American Vegetable Practice (1841), but, as McGrath states, those chromolithographs are merely "passable." Fortunately, Sharp improved his technique, and his next major project, the plates for Hovey's The Fruits of America (1852), demonstrated to all who viewed them the colourful and dramatic potential of chromolithography. Still, the process was in its infancy, and it would take a work of tremendous ambition to satisfactorily popularise the technique. Allen's proposed book on the water-lily provided such a vehicle. Though the first plate of the Victoria Regia is based on a sketch Allen composed himself, the remaining five plates, which show the gradual development of the flowers from bud to full bloom, are wholly attributable to Sharp. Superlative in concept, colour, and execution, they became the first benchmark of the art. "In the large water lily plates of Victoria Regia, Sharp printed colors with a delicacy of execution and technical brilliance never before achieved in the United States" (Reese, Stamped with a National Character).

Livre Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. THE REESE COPY. Boston: Dutton & Wentworth, 1854. Broadsheet folio. Bound in the publisher's brown paper boards, (re)backed with cloth. Preserved in a brown cloth clam-shell box with an inset title-label to the lid. With six chromolithographed plates, each protected by the tissue guard. Rubbing, warping and wear to the upper board. Light tanning to the plates. Bookplate of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society (1930) to the front paste-down. The giant lily was found along the Amazon and first described by Sir R. H. Schomberg in 1837. Botanist John Lindley called the plant a new genus and named it in honor of Queen Victoria. John Fisk Allen (1785-1865) was a well-respected horticulturalist and author on viticulture. He was the first to cultivate a water-lily from a seed given to him by Caleb Cope, the president of the Pennsylvania Horticutural Society and dedicatee of the work. The broadsheet size is appropriate in scale to the enormous Victoria regia. The Englishman William Sharp (1807-1876) was an early practitioner of chromolithography (that is, color printing via multiple superimposed stones), contributing to the development of the technique in America. It originated in England and France ca. 1835, and came to the U.S. in 1839. Sharp's work displays remarkable colors, delicate execution and technical brilliance. His Victoria Regia is considered one of the high-points of chromolithography in America. From the collection of William S. Reese (1955-2018), who was one of the great Americana booksellers. His firm continues to trade in New Haven. After his death, Christie's New York sold his private collection (24-25 May 2022; the present item was lot 229: $35,280 including buyer's premium).
