“The Cyclopaedia or Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences” was edited by Reverend Abraham Rees (1743-1825). Rees’s Encyclopaedia was compiled by specialists in the fields of the arts, humanities, agriculture, science, technology and medicine, and was published between 1802 and 1820. The artists and engravers of natural history, such as Wilson Lowry, have ensured these fine illustrations in particular, have been collected ever since. At different periods over the years, Longman, Hurst and Orme assisted Rees in editing this enormous work which was published in parts.
