Francois-Pierre Chaumeton (1775-1819) was a French physician and botanist. While working as a military surgeon with the French Army, he studied botany at Strasbourg in 1805 and later moved to Paris to continue his work as a botanical writer and editor.
Pierre Jean Francois Turpin (1775-1840) was one of the greatest botanical artists of the Napoleonic era, along with Redoute and Bessa. When serving in the French army in Haiti in 1794, Turpin met botanist Pierre Antoine Poiteau and switched careers. His skill as an artist was recognized by botanists such as Poiret, Humboldt, Duhamel du Monceau and Candolle. Turpin provided the majority of the plates for Flore Medicale.
Anne-Ernestine Panckoucke (1784-1860) was a French botanical artist. The wife of publisher Charles Louis Fleury Panckoucke, she studied flower painting under Pierre-Joseph Redoute and contributed 18 very fine illustrations to the Flore Medicale, including the orange, fig, apple, almond, strawberry, peanut, cherry and quince.
In original quarter leather bindings, red morocco spines with gilt titles, boards scuffed and scratched, hinges cracking, all book blocks solid. Interior very clean, text and plates without foxing, a few with small wormholes, all stipple-engraved plates bright and beautifully coloured.
A classic of botanical art.

First and only complete edition of Commodore Perry's Japan Expedition!
Matthew Perry was one of the most important American Naval officers during the 19th-century. While he was notable for his involvement in the War of 1812 and the Mexican-American War, his most famous accomplishment came as the leader of a voyage to Japan beginning in 1852 aboard the East India Squadron. This series of short visits sought to pursue Japanese trade treaties, but Perry and his crew discovered much more – Japanese and Chinese cultures, politics, coal mining and agriculture, as well as attempts at occupation of Formosa.
