Author: Antonio de ULLOA y de la Torre-Giral (1716 -1795) & Jorge JUAN y Santacilia (1713 – 1773). Place and Year: Madrid, 1748. Technique: Copper Engraving (Very Good, original vertical folds, strong, dark engraving impression, tight upper margin as issued, very minor stains in margins), 28 x 41.5 cm (11 x 16 inches). Code: 61581 This fine map depicts Cartagena de las Indias (Colombia), which was then the most important port along the Spanish Main (the Caribbean Coast of South America). Founded in 1533, Cartagena had risen to become one of the primary conduits for the massive quantities gold and silver brought down from the Andes, which was shipped on forward to Seville, via Havana. As shown on the map, the city rested upon low peninsulas guarding the Boca Chica, a fine natural harobur. One of the most heavily-fortified places in the world, both sectors of the city were entirely enveloped in walls, while bastions protected strategic points. The various aspects of Cartagena’s vast defensive network is detailed on the map’s legend (in the lower left), labeled A to Z, the highlight of which is X, the mighty Castillo de San Felipe de Baragas, which occupied the hill above the city. Various other aspects of the city, such as its many churches and public buildings, are also detailed in the legend, labeled 1to 29. The present map is based... 550 EUR

BUENOS AIRES, AREGENTINA: PLANO BEMPORAT DE LA CAPITAL. PLANO ESPECIAL PARA AUTOMÓVILES. A large and highly attractive Art Nouveau style street plan of Buenos Aires, especially made for drivers in the early age of automobiles.

Author: OFICINA CARTOGRAFICA BEMPORAT. Place and Year: Córdoba, Argentina: Oficina Cartográfica Bemporat, [circa 1930]. Technique: Chromolithograph map, folding into original card wallet with 16 pp. index (Excellent condition, some areas of light toning to map), 72 x 74 cm (28.5 x 29 inches). Code: 62539 Buenos Aires unfolds majestically on this fine plan, made around 1930, during a period of explosive economic, cultural and population growth for the Argentine capital. High commodity prices had seen Argentina become one of the most vibrant economies in the world, while decades of European immigration had made Buenos Aires into one of the most culturally sophisticated cites in the Americas. The city’s population had spiked from around 800,000 in 1903 to over 2.2 million in 1928. The vast grid of streets and squares depicted on the map was lined with elegant apartment blocks and grand public edifices. This particular early edition of the Bemporat plan of Buenos Aires was made especially for automobile drivers, at the very time that the use of cars was becoming widespread for the first time. Explained within the box entitled ‘Pavimentacion Urbana’, in the lower right, the streets heightened in red are cobbled, while the streets heightened in blue are paved with asphalt. The insets along the sides detail some of the city’s outlying residential barrios.The numbers on the map correspond to the index the accompanying index, while a plastic square, included in the map’s wallet assists in locating the precise coordinates. Emphasized by the borders, the cartouches and the compass rose, the map assumes the elegant contemporary style of the Art Nouveau. The Oficina Cartográfica Bemporat was an important Argentine map publishing house based in Córdoba that operated from about 1928 until 1970. They specialized in large, colourful and elegantly lithographed folding city plans and regional maps. The present plan...

From 'A new systeme of geography: designed in a most plain and easie method, for the better understanding of that science...' by John Seller. John Seller (1630 – 1697) was a towering figure of English cartography, and key pioneer of modern mapmaking in variety of disciplines. As the Royal Hydrographer to King Charles II he set about to break the near-monopoly enjoyed by the Dutch in sea chart publication. His production of the first sections of The English Pilot (1671-77), including the charts of the Northern and Southern navigation, as well as the Atlas Maritimus (1675), marked a watershed moment in the development of hydrography as the first British sea atlases. Financial constraints prevented Seller from completing The English Pilot project and the endeavour was subsequently brought to its conclusion by John Thornton. Seller produced the folio land atlas, the Atlas Terrestris (1676), followed in short order by the Atlas Coelestis (1677) and the Atlas Minimus (1678), respectively fine miniature celestial and terrestrial atlases. Seller’s work was highly regarded and many of his maps were copied by subsequent mapmakers for generations... 180 EUR

INDONESIA – ENGGANO ISLAND (NEAR SUMATRA): PLAN OF THE BAY ON THE SOUTH EAST COAST OF THE ISLAND ENGANO, ADJACENT TO THE WEST COAST OF SUMATRA BY CHARLES GUSTAVUS WAHLFELDT, 1771.

An extremely rare sea chart of a key anchorage on Enggano Island, strategically located off of the southwestern coast of Sumatra, published by Alexander Dalrymple, one of the most brilliant, yet mercurial, hydrographers of the Enlightenment Era.

This rare sea chart depicts a key anchorage on the southeast coast of Enggano Island, located around 100 km southwest of Sumatra. While Enggano Island is today quite remote, during the 18th Century it lay right along one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes, which ran through the Sunda Straits (which run between Java and Sumatra), one of the main gateways to the Far East. It was also close to the important British East India Company (EIC) factory at Bencoolen (today Bengkulu City). The chart was prepared by the great Scottish hydrographer Alexander Dalrymple, who was the most important maritime cartographer of Asian waters of his era, as part of his epic project to map harbours across South and Southeast Asia. The present chart of the harobur on Enggano Island gives depth soundings, labels islands and headlands and locates the area’s best anchorage place, however, it is remarkably free of other adornment. This spartan style was an intentional ode to the prevailing ethic of Enlightenment empiricism. Alexander Dalrymple expressly wished his work to be free of “all useless ornament” so as not to obstruct his charts’ clarity as working guides for navigators. During the 18th Century, the waters around Sumatra were of great interest to Britain’s East India Company and the Royal Navy. First, while the Dutch East India Company (VOC) maintained a dominant presence in Java and much of the west coast of Sumatra, the southern and eastern parts of the island were often under the influence of the British. From 1685 to 1825 the EIC maintained major trading base at Bencoolen and British traders and navy vessels frequented ports around Sumatra. Moreover, during the era of the Napoleonic Wars (1796-1815), the British acquired increasing dominance over what is now Indonesia, a grip that was near absolute during their occupation of Java form 1811 to 1815. Thus, the Dalrymple sea charts of ports in the Sumatra region were greatly valued by British mariners for several decades after they were first printed. The Netherlands only became the sole European power in Sumatra following the Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824, whereby British surrendered all of its interests in what is now Indonesia in... 400 EUR

While Sipora is today quite remote, and is renown only in niche surfing communities, during the 18th Century it lay near major shipping routes between British India, the British East India Company (EIC) factory at Bencoolen (today Bengkulu City), Sumatra and the critical passage to the Far East through the Sunda Straits (which run between Java and Sumatra), then as now one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes.

This uncommonly beautiful map represents the finest colonial survey of the town and harbour of St. Louis (today know as Saint-Louis-du-Sud), located along the southeastern coastline of Haiti. St. Louis was then the most important French town in the region and a busy trading port. A shown on the map, since the late 17th Century, the French had built a fine town on a even grid pattern that was well serviced by roads linking it to neighboring towns (such as Verdun and Malval) and plantaitons. While previously protected by the ‘Vieux Fort’, located on the island in the harobur, it was laterly defended by the ‘Fort de la Compagnie’, located just to the west of town, on the mainland.

PORTUGAL – LISBON AND SETÚBAL: ZEECAART VAN DE RIVIER VAN LISBON EN DE BANCKEN VOOR ST. VUES.

A very rare sea chart of the Central Coast of Portugal, including Lisbon and Setúbal, from Willem Blaeu’s ‘Zeespiegel’.

Author: Willem BLAEU (1571 – 1638). Place and Year: Amsterdam, 1623. Technique: Copper engraving with modern ouline colour (Very Good), 26 x 35 cm (10 x 14 inches). Code: 62595

This attractive sea chart features the central coast of Portugal, including Lisbon and the Tagus Estuary, the coast running over to Cascais, and theSetúbal area. The city of Lisbon is portrayed pictorially, as are the saltpans near Setúbal. Both the mileage bars and the title are framed in fine baroque style cartouches. The present chart was part of Willem Blaeu’s highly important and commercially successful sea atlas, Zeespiegel (1623), which was a vastly enlarged successor of his Het Licht der Zee-vaert (1608). Given Lisbon’s global prominance as a port, this chart was one of the most important components of the atlas. The Zeespiegel remained the ultimate guide to navigation in Europe for some years and was no way superseded until the publication of Jacob Aertsz. Colom’s De Vyerighe Colom ...

Between the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and 1867 Sibiu was the meeting-place of the Transylvanian Diet. Today Sibiu is one of the most important cultural centres of Romania. The view was made by a Romanian painter Liborius Gritzbach (Grietzbach, active in Sibiu about 1850–1860) and lithographed by Friedrich August Robert Krabs (1816–1884) in Sibiu. Krabs was a lithographer and artist, working between 1850 -1860 in Sibiu. He was very active in the artistic life of the city and is often mentioned in contemporary newspapers. In 1854 he printed a map of Transylvania (Karte des Großfürstenthums Siebenbürgen : nach der definitiven, politischen und gerichtlichen Landeseintheilung), in1861 a new geological map of Transylvania (Geologische Übersichts-Karte von Siebenbürgen), in 1875 a map of Sibiu (Plan von Hermannstad)... 850 EUR

The coat of arms belongs to Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau, the bischof of Salzburg between 1587 and 1612. The map is based on the oldest map of the Salzburg Land, made by Marx (Marcus) Setznagel (ca 1525-1580) Daß Landt und Erzstifft Saltzburg mit den anstossenden Coherentzen, and published in 1554 by Hans Baumann. It was probably ordered by Ernest, Duke of Bavaria (1500-1560), who was the administrator of the diocese os Salzburg between 1550-1554. No copy of the original wood-cut wall map survives. The rare earliest preserved examples of Setznagel's map are the reprints from original blocks from 1640. Abraham Ortelius made the first map based on Detznagel's wall-map as early as 1570 and was followed by Gerard de Jode, who eight years later published his version of the map in his atlas Speculum Orbis Terrarum. The first edition of the atlas was published in 1578 by Gerard de Jode, who wanted to compete with the famous atlas by Abraham Ortelius, printed eight years before. Although the maps published by de Jode show higher quality of engraving and etching than Ortelius maps, the atlas was not a great success and is today very rare. ‘Only a dozen or so examples have survived.’ (Burden, The Mapping of North America). Revised and enlarged edition of ‘Speculum’ was published in 1593 by Gerard’s son Cornelis de Jode. “Although more examples than the first edition have survived, it too is very scarce. Many of de Jode's maps are judged to be superior to those of Ortelius, both in detail and style.” (Burden)... 1200 EUR

The legend in the lower left corner marks villages in different sizes, mountain passes, mines, bishop’s seats, postal stations etc. This large map, printed on two sheets is a smaller version of a 20 sheet wall map of Tyrol, so called „Atlas Tyrolensis“ made between 1760 and 1770 byPeter Anich (1723 - 1766) and his student Blasius Huber (1735-1814). It was published by Johann Ernst Mansfeld (1738–1796) as a copper engraving in 1774. Because of its size and elaborate details the map became one of the greatest cartographic achievements of the 18th century. The authors Anich and Huber both came from modest rural backgrounds and had to develop many survey techniques themselves and were known as “peasant cartographers” (Bauernkartografen). Spending the first two decades of his life as a shepherd, observing the movement of the stars as a hobby, Anich started studying astronomy in Innsbruck with the Jesuit mathematics professor Ignaz Weinhart. After developing an interest in cartography in 1756 Weinhart encouraged him to start surveying Tyrol in order to make a map of the country. In 1760 he had a chance to finish a wall map of a part of Tyrol by Joseph Freiherr von Sperges (Tyrolis Pars Meridionalis Episcopatum Tridentinum), after von Sperges was called to Vienna. Finishing the project encouraged Anich to start working on his own map. He surveyed the north part, but because of his weak health and deafness he could not finish the project himself. His assistant became his student Blasius Huber, who helped him mapping the south Tyrol. Anich never lived to see the publication of the map, as he died of poor health at the age of 43.

Code: 62535 Large decorative map of Carinthia embraces the area between North Italy, Bled and North Slovenia, the South of Styria and Königsee in Bavaria. Marked are mines, spas, cities, villages, castles and the territories of the Bamberg and Salzburg diocese. Three uncoloured copper engraved images in the lower part show an ancient ritual of inauguration of a Duke of Carantania at Maria Saal, view of Klagenfurt and of the Loibl Pass. In the early 18th century Carinthia was a semi-autonomous county, belonging to a greater state of the Inner Austria with a capital in Graz under a rule of the Habsburg family. Inner Austria also embraced the territory of Carniola and Styria, today’s part of Slovenia and south Austria. The mountainous landscape of Carinthia was placed on the strategic route between Bavaria and Salzburg on one side and the Adriatic Coast on the other. It also offered endless sources of minerals and mineral waters. Different colours on the map mark properties of dioceses of Bamberg and Salzburg. The diocese of Salzburg was extremely important for the history of Carinthia in the early centuries already, when around 755 the missionary Modestus was sent to Carinthia by the Salzburg bishop Vergilius on the request of Prince Hotimir to Christianize his people. The large Bavarian diocese Bamberg was given the propriety in Carinthia at the time of its foundation in 1007 by the emperor Heinrich II...

This beautiful map depicts the theatre of the Battle of Carrickfergus (1760), when the French pirate Captain François Thurot seized the town and castle in a bold diversionary move in advance of a rumoured French mass invasion of the British Isles. The map depicts the Belfast region of Northern Ireland, with the town and castle of Carrickfergus located in the upper left-centre, while Belfast (named here ‘Bellast’) lies a little to the southwest at the head of the ‘Carickfergus Lough’ (Belfast Lough), while the Ards Peninsula occupies the centre of the map. The beautiful profile view of the town and castle of Carrickfergus, ‘Prospect von Carickfergus’ adorns the upper-right corner, while exceptional beautiful original wash colour covers the maritime portions of the composition. During the Seven Years’ War (1756-63), France’s ultimate ambition was to mount a full-scale invasion of the British Isles. The British land defenses and her territorial army were seen as comparatively weak and it was viewed that if the conflict could be brought home the Britain, that her empire would fold like a house of cards. However, even the most optimistic French strategists knew that this could only be accomplished through guile, given the dominance of Britain’s Royal Navy, which perennially did an excellent job...

ENGLAND - ISLE OF WIGHT: BACON’S NEW MAP OF THE ISLE OF WIGHT. AN EXACT REDUCTION FROM THE SIX INCH ORDNANCE SURVEY. SCALE. – ONE INCH TO THE MILE.

A rare and attractive late 19th Century map of the Isle of Wight, printed on linen, folding into its original slipcase.

Author: G. W. BACON & CO. Place and Year: London: G. W. Bacon & Co., 127 Strand, [circa 1885]. Technique: Lithograph printed on linen, in original green card slipcase with original printed label (Very Good, old folds and stains, edges of linen a little frayed), 44.5 x 65 cm (17.5 x 25.5 inches). Code: 62529 This lovey and rare map, printed on linen, features all of the Isle of Wight, then as now one of Britain’s premier recreational areas. The island was famously the preferred residence of Queen Victoria, who from 1851 until her death in 1901, summered at Osborne House, noted on the map in the extreme northern part of the island, just to the east of Cowes. Geographically, the map is extremely accurate and detailed, being predicated on the ultra large scale (six inches to a mile) Ordnance Survey of the island, which was conducted from 1861 to 1863. Due to practical limitations of size, this mapping was reduced to the scale of 1 inch to 1 mile, long a standard for English large scale maps. Every town, village, forest and road is depicted and the islands rolling topography is captured by carefully rendered hachures. Moreover, the map depicts the current state of the island’s railway system, which by then traversed much of the eastern half of the island. The first line to have been completed, in 1862, ran between Newport and Cowes, while the line between Ryde and Ventnor was finished in 1866. The present map was made shortly after the completion of the Brading to Bembridge spur in 1882, but before the construction of lines in the centre and east of the island later in the century. The map features three detailed plans of the island’s major towns, including ‘Ryde’ (upper left), ‘Ventnor and Vicinity’ (lower left) and ‘Newport’ (lower right). The map was printed around 1885 by the firm G. W. Bacon & Co. (founded by George Washington Bacon in 1830) mainly to be used by the more affluent tourists visiting the island. The cover notes that it is “A Weather-Proof Map”, “Printed upon Fine Linen. Light, Handy and Durable”, perfect for excursions about a land surrounded by water with changeable weather...

A highly attractive map of the Principality of Neuchâtel, predicated on the surveys of the David-François de Merveilleux.

Author: HOMANN HEIRS. Place and Year: Nuremberg, [1778]. Technique: Copper engraving with full original hand colour (Very Good), 42 x 58 cm (61.5 x 23 inches). Code: 62560 This beautiful map depicts the Principality of Neuchâtel, today a part of Switzerland, but then a sovereign state. It is based on the first comprehensive survey of the country conducted by David-François de Merveilleux (1652 - 1712), first published in 1710 by Guillaume de L’Isle. The principality is dived into several communities, each distinguished here in their own bright original full wash colours. The map details a variety of fascinating attributes of human geography, including the labeling of all villages, chateaux, abbeys, parish churches, country estates, court houses, historical battle fields, roads and springs, amongst others. During the period when the map was published, the Principality of Neuchâtel was ruled by Frederick the Great of Prussia (reigned 1740-1786), and was undergoing a period of unprecedented prosperity, as its watch and machine tools industry was thriving under the king’s business friendly policies. Neuchâtel had been ruled by Prussia since 1707, as the Prussian kings had successfully (even is somewhat ‘creatively’) claimed ancestral title to the princeship following a dynastic dispute. In 1806 the principality was conquered by Napoleon Bonaparte and Field Marshal Louis-Alexandre Berthier was named prince. In 1814 the Prussian king was restored to the princeship, however, Neuchâtel also joined the Swiss Confederation as the 21st Canton, being the only canton to enter the union as principality. The present map was published by the house of Homann Heirs of Nuremberg. Run by the family of the late Johann Baptist Homann (1664-1724), who served as the official mapmaker to the Holy Roman Emperor, the firm was for decades the leading map publisher in the German-speaking world, operating until 1813.

Code: 62557

Aufwendig gestalteter Stammbaum auf Leinwand mit der Stammlinie von Dietrich Graf von Rödern (auch Redern oder Roedern), Freiherr zu Krappitz, Herr zu Perg, der seine Herkunft auf fünf Generationen zurückgeführt. Die Familie von Rödern ist ein märkisches Uradelsgeschlecht, das in Brandenburg, Pommern, Schlesien und Österreich ansässig gewesen ist. Das Geschlecht wird erstmals 1155 mit Ardnold de Redere urkundlich erwähnt. Die gesicherte Stammreihe beginnt mit Otto von Redern (bis ca. 1482). Von der Mitte des 13. Jahrhunderts an erscheint eine (im Jahr 1678 erloschene) Linie in der Altmark, neben der Ende des 13. Jahrhunderts auch eine Linie rechts der Elbe, bis nachSchlesien, erscheint. Der genealogische Zusammenhang der anhaltisch-märkischen Redern und ihres österreichischen Seitenzweigs mit den schlesischen Redern (später auch Roedern) ist umstritten, da beide Familien unterschiedliche Wappen führten. 1669 wurden jedoch die Wappen durch kaiserliches Diplom vereinigt. Jeder der aufgeführten Urahnen ist mit einem Namensschild und seinem dazugehörigen Wappen repräsentiert. Die Schilder sind der Tradition entsprechend auf den Ästen eines Baumes verteilt, dessen dickes dunkelgrünes Laub zum dekorativ-künstlerischen Ausdruckswert der Malerei beiträgt. Dietrich Graf von Roedern war der Sohn von Erasmus von Rödern (bis 13.01.1630) und Anna Maria von Tattenbeck. Mit Genoveva Schad von Mittelbiberach hatte er vier Kinder, von denen nur die beiden...

LEOPOLD I. VON HABSBURG & MARGARITA TERESA DE AUSTRIA: „FROHES TEUSCHLAND AUF! DEIN HAUPT LÄSST IHM EINE HELDIN TRAUEN […]“

Einblattdruck anlässlich der Eheschließung von Kaiser Leopold I. von Habsburg und der Prinzessin Margarita Teresa de Austria im Jahr 1666.

Author: T. Franck Place and Year: Nürnberg: Johann Hoffmann 1666 Technique: Einblattdruck, Kupferstich, 37,5 x 29,5 cm; Blatt knapp beschnitten und alt aufgezogen, Papier leicht gebräunt, kleine Wurmlöcher am Rand der Darstellung, 2 hs. Datierungen, sonst gut erhalten. Code: 62579

Schöner Einblattdruck anlässlich der Eheschließung von Kaiser Leopold I. von Habsburg und der Prinzessin Margarita Teresa de Austria zu Ostern 1666 mit fiktiver Vermählungsszene und allegorischem Personal. Das Blatt zeigt mittig im Hintergrund das frisch getraute Paar: Kaiser Leopold I. von Habsburg (1640-1705) links mit Reichskrone und die spanische Prinzessin Margarita Teresa de Austria (1631-1652) rechts. Ihr Ehebündnis wird durch das klassische Symbol des dextrarum junctio, dem Ineinanderlegen der rechten Hände, verdeutlicht. Weiterhin ist in einem breiten Schriftband über dem Thron, quasi als Überschrift des Blattes, das Liebesversprechen der beiden Eheleute zu lesen: „Unvergleichliche Prinzessin! Sie zu lieben ich mich übe. | Weltberühmter Herr der Deutschen! Ihm ergieb ich mich in Liebe.“ Das Kaiserpaar ist von fünf, in Kniefall auf den Boden gesunkenen Figuren und verschiedenen Schriftbänder umgeben. Auf er linken Seite befinden sich eine männliche Figur in Rüstung und eine lorbeerbekränzte Frauengestalt. Durch ihre identische, nicht zeitgenössisch anmutende Kleidung werden sie als allegorisches Paar ausgewiesen. Beide reichen dem Kaiserpaar ein Schwert dar, um dessen lange Klinge ein Kranz aus Ölzweigen geschlungen ist. Es handelt sich wohl um die Darstellung von militärischer Stärke (Mars), die durch die gute Regierung der beiden frisch vermählten Herrscher jedoch nicht genutzt werden muss und die daher in Frieden herrschen (Pax). Unterstützt wird diese Deutung durch die begleitenden Schriftbänder: „Euch zu dienen stets bereit.“ und „Lebt in Fried und Einigkeit.“... 350 EUR

The genealogy finishes with the last male emperor from the Austrian line Karl VI. of Habsburg (1685 - 1740). The names of his young children, including of his successor-to-be Maria Theresa.

The print could be made in the next decade until the death of Charles IV on October 20th 1740. There is no privilege in the cartouche, since Seutter only received it in 1741...

ŚWIDNICA – POLAND: SIEGE DE SCHWEIDNITZ PRISE EN 1762

A scarce and highly detailed miniature map of the Battle of Świdnica in Poland, fought in 1762. Author: Jean de BEAURAIN (1696 - 1771). Place and Year: Paris, 1765. Technique: Partly coloured copper engraving (trimmed to image and mounted on old paper, as usually, minimally stained, otherwise in a good condition), 8,5 x 12 cm. Code: 62525 This finely-engraved map depicts the Battle at Świdnica in the region of Silesia in Poland during the Seven Years' War (1756-63), fought between the Austrian and Prussian army in 1762. While the map is of a modest size, the quality of the engraving and detail of the presentation provides a surprisingly thorough overview. This map was issued by Beaurain in 1765, both to serve as one of the border illustrations added to his great wall map recording the events of the Seven Years' War, the Carte de Allemagne... (1765), and, as is the case here, as a separately-issued map, mounted on larger piece of paper and bound into a made-to-order atlas. Jean de Beaurain (1696 – 1771) was an important French mapmaker who served for 50 years as royal cartographer to King Louis XV. As evidenced by the present map, he played a key role in documenting the Seven Years’ War and his skills were highly regarded by French officials. He was frequently consulted by diplomats to provide advice on international boundaries during treaty negotiations. His son, Jean-Baptiste, followed him into the cartography profession. 150 EUR

Wunderschön koloriertes Blatt aus der seltenen Stichserie zu den antiken Wanddekorationen der Villa Negroni in Rom, der ehemaligen Villa des römischen Kaisers Antonius Pius (reg. 138-161 n. Chr.). Es handelt sich um Tafel VII einer insgesamt 12 Blätter umfassenden Stichserie von Angelo Campanella und Petrus Vitali nach Zeichnungen von Anton Raphael Mengs und Anton von Maron. Die Villa wurde 1777 von José Nicolás de Azara, dem Boschafter von König Karl III. von Spanien, bei Grabungen nahe der Thermen des Diocletian auf dem Esquilin entdeckt. Ihm ist das vorliegende Blatt auch gewidmet. Die Reproduktion der antiken Wanddekorationen in detaillierten, kunstvollen und farbenprächtigen Stichen stellt die unmittelbare Reaktion auf den bedeutenden Fund antiker Wandmalereien dar, bei denen es sich um die ersten wiederentdeckten Fresken dieser Art nach den Funden in Pompeji und in Herculaneum handelte.

Originally coloured copper engraved map shows the regions of Carniola, the Windic Mark and Istria, corresponding today’s Slovenia and north Croatia. The views show Ljubljana, the capital of Carniola and now capital of Ljubljana, and the intermittent lake Cerkinca. In the early 17th century, when the map was made, the three regions represented the southernmost tip of the Habsburg Empire. Carniola with its capital Ljubljana was a autonomous county, belonging to a greater state of the Inner Austria with a capital in Graz under a rule of the Habsburg family. Inner Austria also embraced the territory of Carinthia and Styria, today’s part of north Slovenia and south Austria. Windic Mark and Istria were a semi-autonomous counties, the first one bordering Croatia on the unstable border of the Ottoman Empire and the second one being surrounded by the Venetian territory from thee sides. As Venetian Republic kept the coastline of Istria, the inner land belonged to the Habsburg Empire. The county kept its semi- autonomy though and had its capital in the central Istrian town of Pazin. After its capital it was called the Duchy of Pazin. In the lower right corner of the map is Lake Cerknica, a natural phenomenon of the Karst landscape that was one of the most famous landmarks in Southeastern Europe. Amazingly, the lake would practically disappear in the autumn for several months, sometimes even for more than a year, before suddenly reemerging in the spring to swell to a great size. The lake was often represented on the maps of Austria and the Balkans as being much larger than its actual size. Even Abraham Ortelius, who also used Lazius as his source, represented the lake as a smaller sea in the middle of Carniola. The lake was the source of much fascination amongst scholars from Roman to modern times, but it was only during the 18th Century that credible explanations were proposed for its mysterious nature...

Inner Austria also embraced the territory of Carniola and Styria, today’s part of Slovenia and south Austria. The mountainous landscape of Carinthia was placed on the strategic route between Bavaria and Salzburg on one side and the Adriatic Coast on the other. It also offered endless sources of minerals and mineral waters. The colour pink on the map shows the area of Carinthia and the green and yellow colour mark properties of dioceses of Bamberg and Salzburg.

Uncommon small map shows the Balkans. From 'A new systeme of geography: designed in a most plain and easie method, for the better understanding of that science...' by John Seller. John Seller (1630 – 1697) was a towering figure of English cartography, and key pioneer of modern mapmaking in variety of disciplines. As the Royal Hydrographer to King Charles II he set about to break the near-monopoly enjoyed by the Dutch in sea chart publication. His production of the first sections of The English Pilot (1671-77), including the charts of the Northern and Southern navigation, as well as the Atlas Maritimus (1675), marked a watershed moment in the development of hydrography as the first British sea atlases. Financial constraints prevented Seller from completing The English Pilot project and the endeavour was subsequently brought to its conclusion by John Thornton. Seller produced the folio land atlas, the Atlas Terrestris (1676), followed in short order by the Atlas Coelestis (1677) and the Atlas Minimus (1678), respectively fine miniature celestial and terrestrial atlases. Seller’s work was highly regarded and many of his maps were copied by subsequent mapmakers for generations. 180 EUR

He was active in Warsaw, Krakow and Wroclaw. In Poland he was “one of the most zealous and earliest systematic promoters of the rosary” (Piotr Stolarski, Friars on the Frontier: Catholic Renewal and the Dominican Order…, p. 165). His texts were considered controversial in Poland and Bzowski was criticized by the Franciscans and Jesuits. After getting into a conflict with the Protestants he moved to Rome in 1611, where he spent more than years writing about church history. Bzowski’s works were published among others in Rome, Venice and Cologne. He was also corresponding with Tomasz Zamoyski, Fabian Birkowski and Jerzy Ossoliński.

Die von Rohrbach waren eine durch den Weinhandel reich gewordene Kaufmannsfamilie und gehörten schon um 1430 zum herrschenden städtischen Patriziat von Frankfurt. 1466 heiratete Bernhard von Rohrbach Adelgunde von Holzhausen. Durch seine Heirat wurde ihm die Aufnahme in die vornehmste Frankfurter Stubengesellschaft Limburg möglich. Neben verschiedenen Ratsämtern, widmete sich Bernhard von Rohrbach der Literatur und Musik, unterhielt eine kleine Bibliothek und ist weiterhin als Verfasser einer Chronik der Stadtgeschichte bekannt. Der vorliegende Abzug der Platte wurde um 1858 angefertigt. Es handelt sich dabei um die erste Auflage dieser, aus dem 15. Jahrhundert stammenden Platte. Laut Nagler wurde die Druckplatte Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts im Familienarchiv des Freiherrn von Holzhausen gefunden und wies keine Anzeichen eines vorherigen Abdrucks auf (Nagler 1858, Nr. 1079, S. 890 f.). Des Weiteren war die Platte in ein mit der Jahreszahl „1467“ datiertes Blatt eingeschlagen. In jedem Fall muss die zwischen 1466, dem Jahr der Eheschließung Rohrbachs, und spätestens bis 1482, seinem Todesjahr, gestochen worden sein. In der Mitte des unteren Blattrandes befindet sich das Monogramm „bxS“, das von einem deutschen, um 1480 tätigen Kupferstecher stammt. Dieser wird mit Barthel bzw. Bartholomäus Schön, genannt Schongauer, oder Barthel Zeitblom identifiziert (Heller 1831, S. 61/ Nagler 1858, S. 890)... 750 EUR
