Copy composed by 2 volumes, including 51 beautiful plates - watercolour and gouache- by J. J. Grandville. Second edition.

Bound in original publisher's binding, richly gilt.

A true classic of floral surrealism, with super hand colouring to the engravings.

Les Fleurs Animées was Grandville's personal favorite work.

The author portrays a flower or plant metamorphosed into a lad clad in the petals or leaves which is particular to that flower or plant. Further, his flower turned human exhibits the human personality traits which Grandville perceives as characteristic of the specie he illustrates.
