Adrien de JUSSIEU (1797-1853), botanist. L.A.S.... - Lot 18 - Conan Belleville Hôtel d'Ainay
Adrien de JUSSIEU (1797-1853), botanist. L.A.S. to the naturalist and botanist Emmanuel Le Maout (1799-1877). 1 p. in-8, letterhead of the Museum of Natural History. May 15 [1848]. Address on the back. About the Atlas élémentaire de Botanique by Emmanuel Le Maout. Adrien de Jussieu says he has made a report to the minister about his atlas, and invites him to approach him. "I thank you for the communication of your paintings which must indeed be very advantageous to the illustration of families and plant organization by a public course. A few more details, which are included in the size of the figures, would not hurt; for example the chalazas for the figures of ovules, the conductive tissue (especially where it is so developed), the gemellar cleft for the monocotyledonous embryos (especially that of Iris). The best must always be sought, but it is already much to be well [] ".
