    Synopsis
    Based on J. G. Heck's Bilder Atlas zum Convenations Lexicon, published in German in the nineteenth century, the Iconographic Encyclopaedia of Science, Literature, and Art was a monumental six-volume compilation of illustrations and information, covering an enormous range of subjects, from architecture to zoology. Among its most remarkable features were the thousands of superb steel engravings, comprising one of the most extensive pictorial archives ever published in a single work. The present book, one of three separate and independent volumes based on the rare original American edition of 1851, is devoted to nature and science. Over 170 beautifully reproduced plates contain thousands of illustrations depicting an extraordinary array of subjects: mathematical and geometrical problems; surveying instruments, astronomical maps, and instruments; planetary systems according to Ptolemy, the Egyptians, Copernicus, and others; positions of the planets; botanical illutrations of scores of plants -- including seed pods, fruits, and other parts; physical and meteorological illustration demonstrating many laws and principles; numerous types of physical and chemical apparatus; animals, minerals, fossils, geological formations; human anatomy; and many other images. A descriptive table of contents is keyed to numbered illustrations on each plate. Artists, illustrators, and anyone in need of precisely rendered, royalty-free science or nature illustrations will welcome this practically inexhaustible wealth of immediately usable art., 5,500 illustrations from the 19th century include star maps, animals, plants, minerals, fossils, geological formations, human anatomy, and much more., 5,500 illustrations from the 19th century depict an extraordinary array of subjects devoted to nature and science, including star maps, animals, plants, minerals, fossils, geological formations, human anatomy, and much more.

      The item was Exactly as described. The movie is a classic and I haven’t opened it yet as I’m waiting for movie night but it’s brand new in the seal still. The shipping was very Quick. They have an excellent customer service support that answered all my questions. The sticker price it would have sold for at the store was much less than I paid but it was fairly priced compared to the other listings. Over all I’m a satisfied customer and i wouldn’t hesitate to purchase from this buyer.
