[Amsterdam, the artist], 1809-1811. Oblong folio (17.1 x 25.6 cm) [17.7 x 26.0 cm]. Mounted. Printed surface ca. 11.5 x 17.0 cm. 19th-century quarter morocco over pebbled boards. Spine with gilt floral ornaments. Marbled endpapers. Edges speckled red.

A fine, complete suite of cattle etchings on light-greyish wove paper, mounted on larger, white sheets, by the Dutch (Amsterdam) artist and engraver Anthony Oberman (1781-1845). Each illustration is signed, numbered and monthly dated by the artist, inside the frame. Placed in numerical and chronological order, dates range from July 1809 to January 1811. Work of Oberman is present in the Rijksmuseum and other art institutes in the Netherlands. Reproductions of his work are popular, but original printings are rare. It is very rare to see this suite complete. Provenance: the armorial bookplate of Dupont de St. Ouën, designed and/or engraved by D. de Patoul, mounted on the front pastedown. Boards with some shelfwear. Slight, marginal spotting, otherwise very good, the mounted leaves with the prints entirely clean.
