Milbert - Falls of Cohoes, of the River Mohawk [New York]. 16
Est: $500 - $1,000
This scarce and historic folio lithograph is from Jacques-Gerard Milbert's Itineraire pittoresque du fleuve Hudson et des parties laterales. The work was published in Paris by Henri Gaugain between 1828 and 1829. The work illustrated and recorded scenes of New York including the Hudson River, New York City, West Point, Albany, Troy, Saratoga Springs, and Niagara Falls. It also included depictions of Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Virginia. The lithograph available is from the first edition of the work and are on india paper, mounted. Jacques-Gerard Milbert (1766-1840) was a French naturalist, artist, geographer, and engineer. He spent eight years in the United States exploring and sketching the country, flora, and fauna. He sent back near 8000 specimens to the Museum of Natural History in Paris. "As an artist, Milbert loved to paint American landscapes, particularly those which showed the Hudson, 'King of Rivers,' flowing majestically through the mountains ... boundless curiosity, plus a contagious enthusiasm and a delightful sense of humor, make the journal as lively a document today as when it was penned a hundred and forty years ago. The pictures of what he saw, as of the time he drew them, constitute a unique and valuable record." (Sherman) "Milbert sailed from Havre on the 1st of September, 1815, and arrived in New York on the 20th of the following October. He settled in New York, where his first work was the making of several drawings of the mechanism of steamboats. He soon, however, turned to portrait-painting, and taught drawing. Milbert was later attached to the commission in charge of the leveling preparatory to the establishment of the Champlain Canal. In this connection he made a journey in one of the large steamers plying upon the Hudson. It was on this voyage that he collected much of the material for his Itinéraire Pittoresque. "A few years after his arrival in New York he was charged by M. Hyde de Neuville, the French Minister, with the preparation of certain collections of natural history specimens, destined for the King's Garden in Paris. In his report on this collection, which is printed in full in his Itinéraire Pittoresque, he styles himself 'Voyageur, Naturaliste du Gouvernement et Correspondant du Museum d'Histoire Naturelle au Jardin du Roi.' It was through Milbert's efforts that the first living specimen of the American buffalo was introduced into France." (Stokes Iconography of New York)

Milbert - Bridge on the Hudson River near Luzerne (Pennsylvania). 25
Est: $1,000 - $2,000
This scarce and historic folio lithograph is from Jacques-Gerard Milbert's Itineraire pittoresque du fleuve Hudson et des parties laterales. The work was published in Paris by Henri Gaugain between 1828 and 1829. The work illustrated and recorded scenes of New York including the Hudson River, New York City, West Point, Albany, Troy, Saratoga Springs, and Niagara Falls. It also included depictions of Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Virginia. The lithograph available is from the first edition of the work and are on india paper, mounted. Jacques-Gerard Milbert (1766-1840) was a French naturalist, artist, geographer, and engineer. He spent eight years in the United States exploring and sketching the country, flora, and fauna. He sent back near 8000 specimens to the Museum of Natural History in Paris. "As an artist, Milbert loved to paint American landscapes, particularly those which showed the Hudson, 'King of Rivers,' flowing majestically through the mountains ... boundless curiosity, plus a contagious enthusiasm and a delightful sense of humor, make the journal as lively a document today as when it was penned a hundred and forty years ago. The pictures of what he saw, as of the time he drew them, constitute a unique and valuable record." (Sherman) "Milbert sailed from Havre on the 1st of September, 1815, and arrived in New York on the 20th of the following October. He settled in New York, where his first work was the making of several drawings of the mechanism of steamboats. He soon, however, turned to portrait-painting, and taught drawing. Milbert was later attached to the commission in charge of the leveling preparatory to the establishment of the Champlain Canal. In this connection he made a journey in one of the large steamers plying upon the Hudson. It was on this voyage that he collected much of the material for his Itinéraire Pittoresque. "A few years after his arrival in New York he was charged by M. Hyde de Neuville, the French Minister, with the preparation of certain collections of natural history specimens, destined for the King's Garden in Paris. In his report on this collection, which is printed in full in his Itinéraire Pittoresque, he styles himself 'Voyageur, Naturaliste du Gouvernement et Correspondant du Museum d'Histoire Naturelle au Jardin du Roi.'

"Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson..." Engraving
Est: $200 - $300
Hudson River [Paris, France], ca. 1830s-1840s "Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson..." Engraving Lithograph A beautiful early-nineteenth-century lithograph, after Smith by Georges from Jacques-Gérard Milbert (1766-1840), "Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson et des Parties Latérales de l'Amérique du Nord D'après les dessins originaux pris sur les lieux par J. Milbert, Ancien Professeur à l'École … Peintre, Voyageur, Naturaliste du gouvernement, correspondant du Jardin du Roi…" ["Picturesque Itinerary of the Hudson River and Lateral Parts of North America According to the Original Drawings Taken On-Site by J. Milbert, Former School Professor… Painter, Traveler, Naturalist of the government, King's Garden Correspondent…" N.d. but ca. 1830s-1840s. This title page appears to be from a later edition (published sometime after the 1828-1829 Paris: Henri Gauguin first edition of Milbert's title). Publication information appears at the bottom of the title page as: "Paris. / Chez E. Ardit Editeur Rue Vivienne No. 2." Expected wear including mild to moderate toning, isolated chipped edges and minor closed tears. The top edge is weathered, wrinkled, and stained. Else good to very good. Elephant folio, 14.125" x 21.5." The title page includes 19 lines of text of various fonts, sizes, and stylistic embellishments. The text is enclosed within a trompe-l'oeil border divided into twelve segments, each containing vignettes of landscapes, animals, and figures. Animals include specimens unique to North America, such as the buffalo, American eagle, and raccoon. American Indians are depicted in the left lower scene, while a coureur du bois / hunter standing in front of a teepee is depicted in the right lower scene. As the title suggests, Milbert's illustrated atlas focused on the Hudson River Valley, and the complete volume would have contained lithographs based on his original drawings of Albany, Troy, West Point, Niagara Falls, Saratoga Springs, and New York City. The "Lateral Parts of North America" were also discussed and portrayed, however, as far west as the Great Lakes region, as far south as Virginia, as far north as Canada, and also encompassing New England and the Mid-Atlantic states. Milbert's illustrated atlas was the product of 8 years of travels throughout the United States, completed between 1815-1823. This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.

We can trace only two other copies of the present suite of lithographs, one held in the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and another incomplete copy said to be held at Harvard. Milbert (1766-1840), a pupil of the great landscape painter Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes, taught drawing at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines in Paris before accompanying the French expedition sent by Napoleon to explore the southern oceans in 1800. He embarked on the corvette 'Le Géographe' captained by the explorer Nicolas Baudin, but during the voyage, he and several other artists fell out with the captain and decided to disembark at Mauritius. He remained there for two years, returning to France via the Cape and Tenerife, and publishing this illustrated account of his travels in 1812. In 1815, Milbert travelled to the United States, where he remained for eight years, based in New York, teaching and travelling in the north-eastern region.
