Lembeye, Juan - Birds of the Island of Cuba - Havana - Imprenta Del Tiempo - 1850 - 25 cm - hardcover Number of pieces: 1 Pages: 136 pp. - Laminated cover. Complete with 20 color lithographed plates. Several leaves with stains, as they usually appear in this edition. Juan Lembeye (1816-1889) lived in Cuba for thirty years, where he became interested in the island's birds. In particular, he discovered the Cuban nightingale (Myadestes Elisabeth) and the pechero (Teretistris Fernandinae). Many of the descriptions in the book were written by Lembeye himself. The engravings were made by Laureano Fernandez, taking Audubon's famous prints as a model. A careful examination of the prints shows that Lembeye "updated" several of the illustrations to reflect the particularities of the birds present on the island, which sometimes differ from the birds described by Audubon. This book is quite iconic in Cuba; some of its illustrations were reproduced on cigar wrappers and other popular products. Very scarce work: RBB only records two copies offered at auctions since the beginning of the century. All the plates are illuminated, when Zimmer and Nissen indicate that only 18 (out of 20) were in color. It has a black Dutch binding, probably from the 20th century. Its inner leaves show some stains, and a special darker coloring on the plates. Each engraving is protected by a thin sheet of Japanese paper. Each engraving bears as a workshop signature, in the lower right corner: "Lit. de Marquier, Ce de Lamparilla No. 96". It bears an ownership mark in ink of Dr. Francisco Garay dated January 20, 1891. Plate 19 has a slight crease at lower right that does not affect the contents. Hardcover. Juan Lembeye (1816-1889) lived in Cuba for thirty years, where he became interested in the island's birds.
