"An album dating from 1835 and containing a collection of 24 bouquets, vases and baskets was published by the Lebigre brothers bookshop, 26 rue de la Harpe (where she used to get her painting supplies when she lived number 45 on the same street). The engravings drawn by Mrs Henriette Vincent and engraved by Lambert Aîné come from collections either sold by Lambert himself, or by the merchants of Estampes Genty (33 rue St Jacques) and Blaisot (6 rue de Grammont). The engravings have been painted by 'distinguished artists', probably some of her pupils, and this edition was most certainly a tribute to the artist and teacher."--Gaëlle Vincent-Andriot
