Proposals for printing by subscription, Elements of Zoology | 1806 October 14 | 19.5 cm x 26 cm; Broadside, 1p. | ||
Proposals for printing, by subscription, Elements of zoology or outlines of the natural history of animals. ...Conditions, etc. This work, originally intended as companion volume to Barton's popular Elements of botany (1803), was apparently never published under this title. A work of wider scope, A discourse on some of the prinicipal desiderata in natural history, based on a lecture given by Barton to the Phildelphia Linnaean Society on June 1807, was published less than a year after this broadside was issued and probably utilized material meant for Elements of zoology. Manuscript list of some of the subscribers, including Rubens Peale of Peale's Museum in Philadelphia, is appended to the document.

Pen and watercolor drawings and engravings of botanical and natural historical subjects by Barton, but also including 64 sketches by William Bartram, three illustrations of rattlesnake anatomy attributed to Benjamin Henry Latrobe, and other works by Frederick Pursh,Pierre Turpin, and other artists. Native American Images note : Fifteen engravings, watercolor sketches, pen and ink sketches, and copper printing plates of Native American portraits, artifacts and hieroglyphics attributed to Barton, ca. 1790-1810. Scientific in nature, the images reflect animal figures of the Algonquian and portraits of Seminole and Cherokee Indians. Illustrations collected by Barton include William Bartram's portrait of Mico-Chlucco, King of the Muscogulges, John H. Hopkin's watercolor sketch of two arrow heads, and a copper plate of Lewis and Clark's Shahaka, the Mandan chief. Referenced in Freeman's Guide to Manuscripts relating to the American Indian at the APS and Murphy Smith's Historical American Sketches. Taxonomic Identifications note: Some generalized taxonomic identifications of illustrations were made by person(s) unknown at undetermined times, but which have since been reidentified. The reidentifications are noted as part of the item title, but the items remain in the order as originally identified so as to preserve that original order and their misidentifications. Revised identifications were provided 15 May 2012. | ||||
