Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. The Spirit of the Woods. London, Longman, Rees etc, 1837. Tall 8vo. xvi + 306pp. With 26 hand-coloured engraved plates by ?William Clark after drawings by the author. Contemporary half calf, decorative gilt spine with title, top edge gilt; very slight wear to corners. The history, description, use and symbolic association of some 36 species of tree. Most are European, but some are notably from India (the Banyan, Sandal and Ashoka trees). Mrs Hey has gathered instances of the mention of plants from classical and later literature, travellers accounts, the Bible and folklore, to endow the species with emblematic significance. The fine accompanying coloured plates combine to exemplify two fields in which the early Victorians excelled the accomplishment of the botanical artist and their fascination with plants, due as much to the threatening nature of the Industrial Revolution as to the introduction of very many new varieties. Dedicatory inscription on front endpaper dated 1884. In very good condition, one or two leaves only with faint marginal foxing. Plesch 343. Wilfrid Blunt, The Art of Botanical Illustration, 1950, pp2l9-20. Nicolette Scourse, The Victorians and their Flowers, 1983, pp54-7.
