ORTELIUS, A., A complete set of Ortelius' World and Continents, Antwerp, Chr. Plantin, 1571-1575, 14 x 19.2 inches /35.5 x 48.7 cm, The mapsare in very good to mint condition.

These five maps are the most sought after combination of maps in the Theatrum.

in the Atlantic. The drawing of the far eastern coast of Brazil, shown as well below the Equator.Europae derives in large part from Mercator's work.

North America is nearly bissected by a lengthy St. Lawrence River, and the lands of Anian Regnum and Quivira arenoted on the western coast. The Atlantic Ocean is filled with phantom islands, including Frieslant, St. Brandain, Brasil and many others.

The earlier border of clouds has been replaced by a more intricate and elegant lattice of strapwork and swag. Theoval world map used previously has been updated in two major respects. South America now assumes the more correct shape anticipated in state 3 of Ortelius' second plate, and the SolomonIsles are marked for the first time. However, Ortelius shows the northern mainland's of Asia and America as separated by a narrow strait, 200 years prior to Captain Cook's thorough surveys of the area.

California is properly shown as a peninsula. However, the map reflects the misconception held at the time that Tierra del Fuego was the northern tip of a massive southern continent.Indicative of its paramount importance, a copy of Ortelius' atlas is thought to have accompanied Sir Francis Drake on his circumnavigation of the world.

From the third plate only approximately 3200 copies were printed. ¤ (Lot number: 24742)

The more recently named constellations are shown as scientificinstruments.The paths of several comets are traced following a pattern established by Pardies.Specifically this chart is an internal view of the sky centered on the equator above the winter solstice in a gnomonic projection between the declinations 45° North and 45° South.Also depicted are the paths of the comets C/1577 V1 (observed by Tycho Brahe), 1P/1607 S1 [Halley s Comet] (Johannes Kepler), C/1661 C1 (Johannes Hevelius), C/1680 V1 (JohnFlamsteed), C/1702 H1 (Philippe de la Hire) and C/1707 W1 (Giovanni Domenico Cassini).The comet of 1692 (observed by Philippe de la Hire) does not seem to be mentioned in modern cometographies.Doppelmayr wrote on astronomy, geography, cartography, spherical trigonometry, sundials and mathematical instruments. He often collaborated with the cartographer Johann BaptistaHomann (1664-1724), a former Dominican monk from Oberkammlach in Schwabia who in 1688 had settled in Nuremberg and became a map engraver for the publishing firms of Jacob vonSandrart and David Funck. In 1702, Homann founded an influential cartographic publishing firm that after his death was continued by his son Johann Christoph Homann (1703-1730) andafter the latter s death by his friend Johann Michael Franz (1700-1761) and his stepsister s husband Johann Georg Ebersberger (1695-1760) under the name Homännische Erben .

In1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as Royal Cartographer to France in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depôt de la Marine. Working in his official capacity Bonne compiled some of themost detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorative work of the 17th and early18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities to those of his predecessor, Bellin.However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, and compass roses. While mostly focusingon costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24285)

Based on Plancius' 18 sheet hemisphere of 1592, especially along the Northwest coast. South America has an unusual pointed tip, entirely different from Ortelius, Mercator,or de Jode. Newfoundland is depicted as a single island based on the information of Cornelis Claesz and Lasso. Most significantly, this is the first Western Hemisphere map to incorporate the White - le Moyne cartography in Virginia. The map appeared in Part VI of the Grand Voyages, which is the last part actually issued by de Bry (Parts VII to XII appeared only after his death). De Bry's map achieved a cartographicsuccess that eluded de Jode, Wytfliet and others who tried to incorporate the new knowledge gained from the maps of White for Virginia and Le Moyne for Florida and who includedbetween the areas covered by those maps the conception of the east coast from earlier Spanish maps (e.g. Diego Gutierrez). This implied that parts of the coast were incorporated twice (once crudely) and had the double effect of placing White's Virginia above the Spanish version of Cape Cod and of forcing anenormous eastern extension of North America. ¤ (Lot number: 24987)

In 1631 Henricus put his own name on the plate and added the 1636 date: it is likely that it was at thistime that the decorative borders were trimmed off to make the map fit the standard atlas format.According to Although derived from two maps by Willem Blaeu, Burden notes that “it was the Hondius, however, that helped to popularize this particular depiction of America, stylized bythe inset maps of the two polar regions.” (Lot number: 24776)

He has added French names in Florida and along the St Lawrence. European geographers still had no knowledge of the extent of the Mississippi.

notable for it's representation of North America. Published by Jean Janvier, and engraved by Jean Lattré. The map is justifiably famous for its depiction of one of the great cartographic"errors" of the 18th century -- a huge inland sea in the Pacific Northwest. The sea was called 'La Mer De L'Ouest.' Of course, it must be remembered that the search for a Northwest Passage,and a route to the Orient, was of enormous importance in the 18th century, and the existence of such a sea would have made such a passage a reality. The mythical strait of Juan de Fucaleads into the sea. Most of the western portion of North America can only be described as fanciful, including an East-West mountain range at the southern edge of the sea.

1st published by John Senex in London in 1710, here probably a later state dedicated to Anthony Hammond.

One of the earliest large-scale English maps of the continent. It represents a British attempt to consolidate new information about the region and borrows data from such recently publishedsources as Delisle’s landmark Carte du Mexique et de la Floride, especially for the lower portion of the map. To this information Senex contributed a fine depiction of the Great Lakes regionand the most accurate definition of the lower Mississippi River and its delta by an English cartographer of the period. He also extended the map’s coverage to the far reaches of Canada’sNorthwest Territories and the Terra Incognita above Baffin’s Bay. Present-day Oklahoma and Texas are part of “La Floride,” considered at the time to be a possession of the French. TheRed River and the Indian villages of East Texas are portrayed accurately, but Senex, following Delisle, incorrectly placed many Texas rivers, in addition to depicting some strange andunrecognizable names. An exceptional product of its era, the map has a spare, clean, carto-scientific style indicative of that for which Senex was known. SCARCE & IMPORTANT MAP! (Lot number: 90404)

Boundaries outlined in hand colour.From theAtlas moderne ou collection de cartes sur toutes les parties du globe terrestre...Rigobert Bonne (1727-1795 ) was one of the most important cartographers of the late 18th century.In 1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as Royal Cartographer to France in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depôt de la Marine. Working in his official capacity Bonne compiled some ofthe most detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorative work of the 17th andearly 18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities to those of his predecessor,Bellin. However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, and compass roses. While mostlyfocusing on costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24219)

McKenney, Thomas Loraine and James Hall., Payta-Kootha a Shawanoe Warrior., Philadelphia, circa 1836-1842, 20.5 x 14.2 inches /52 x 36cm, Folio edition. Lithograph with exquisite bright original hand colour. Very light transference of text from preceding page. Overall, excellent.Size of paper: 520x360mm., (Estimate: $900 - 1200)This hand-coloured lithograph of Flying Clouds (Payta-kootha) (Shawnee) was probably painted by King in Washington, D.C., but the date is unknown. He was an itinerant, self-appointedambassador among tribes. As a Shawnee representative, he signed treaties beginning with the Treaty of Greenville in 1795 and ending with the Treaty with the Shawnee of 1825. In the latter treaty the Shawnee sold the last of their lands in Ohio and received lands in the State of Missouri. In this portrait the mutilation of the subject's ears and addition of trade silverear cuffs is extreme.

McKenney, Thomas Loraine and James Hall., Hayne-Hudjihini the eagle of delight., Philadelphia, circa 1836-1842, 20.5 x 14.2 inches /52 x 36cm, Folio edition. Lithograph with exquisite bright original hand colour. Overall, excellent. Size of paper: 520x360mm., (Estimate: $900 - 1200)This hand-coloured lithograph of Hayne-Hudjihini the eagle of delight, one of only eight women whose portraits appeared in this book. By contrast there were 111 men's portraits in it. "She was young, tall, and finely formed, her face...was the most beautiful we had met with. Her hair was parted across her forehead, and hung down upon her shoulders. A small jacket ofblue cloth was fastened round her shoulder and breast, and a mantle of the same was wrapped around her body."This was the way an Indian commissioner recalled the Eagle of Delight after he had met her in the 1830s. A decade before, she had accompanied her husband Shaumonekusse, an Oto chief,to Washington where she had captivated McKinney, the President, his cabinet, and just about everyone she met. She was poised and charming, but she was not the sole love of her warriorchief.The Eagle of Delight was only one of five wives and their husband was getting on in years when the commissioner met him. That day the women were all "pounding corn, or chattering overthe news of the day." The old chief, while eating, "took the opportunity to disburthen his heart" to the commissioner.As he moaned, five women were just too much, even the Eagle of Delight. Their "caprices, and the difficulties which he found in maintaining a proper discipline [made it impossible for him]where there were so many mistresses and but one mister." Unfortunately, no one ever obtained the Eagle of Delight's version of married life to an old man in a tepee with four other women.McKenney called her "young, and remarkably handsome...." She died of measles after her return to the west. From McKenney & Hall’s History of the Indian Tribes, perhaps the most important work ever published on North American Indians.

Working in his official capacity Bonne compiled some ofthe most detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorative work of the 17th andearly 18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities to those of his predecessor,Bellin. However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, and compass roses. While mostlyfocusing on costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24217)

Ornated with a rococo title cartouche. Boundaries outlined in hand colour.From theAtlas moderne ou collection de cartes sur toutes les parties du globe terrestre...Rigobert Bonne (1727-1795 ) was one of the most important cartographers of the late 18th century.In 1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as Royal Cartographer to France in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depôt de la Marine. Working in his official capacity Bonne compiled some ofthe most detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorative work of the 17th andearly 18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities to those of his predecessor,Bellin. However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, and compass roses. While mostlyfocusing on costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24216)

This obviously pagan origin of the image makes its appearance in a Holy Land travel book a bit of a mystery.On this map, Pegasus is drawn realistically – i.e. Asia is adjustedto horse-shape.- Asia’s front legs, touching Africa with the knees, constitute Arabia.- Its head, licking Europe, is Asia Minor (present-day Turkey).- The Tigris and Euphrates rivers run down its neck, on which is marked the area of Mesopotamia.- Another river indicated, at the horse’s thigh, is the Ganges, with India Infra Gangem (‘India before the Ganges’) to the west and India Extra Gangem (‘India across the Ganges’).- The horse’s behind is India Orientalis (’East India‘, which could be used for parts east of present-day India, e.g. Indonesia, formerly the Dutch East Indies).- Both hind legs are inscribed with India Meridionalis (’South India’), which doesn’t at all reflect the single-peninsular nature of the Indian subcontinent.

Page 32/113

- The wings are labeled Scythia and Tartaria, names often used to describe the vast unknown areas of Siberia.- The body of water in between the wings and the horse’s body is the Caspian Sea. ¤ (Lot number: 25009)

Thepresent map has many interesting decorative features. In the upper left is a stunning, large title cartouche with name of the cartographer, Danet and the date, 1732, showing a white lady anda black man (probably a freed slave, as he holds broken chains in his hands) and some animals (the head of a lion, a serpent, a scorpion and some shells).

In the upper right part is part of India and the Maldives. In the lowerleft side north eastern Brazil is shown. There is a small "advertisement" in the lower right corner. Danet was the son in law to Nicolas de Fer and was one of the successors to him. This mapis not listed in either Norwich or Tooley’s Maps of the African Continent. The map has narrow margins, and a few repaired marginal tears. Due to the short margins some of the tearsended up in the borders, but the map has not had long tears into the image or any other damage. (Lot number: 90326)

Else good condition., (Estimate: $220 - 250)Detailed map of Scotland.Mercator was born in Rupelmonde in Flanders and studied in Louvain under Gemma Frisius, Dutch writer, astronomer and mathematician. The excellence of his work brought him thepatronage of Charles V, but in spite of his favor with the Emperor he was caught up in the persecution of Lutheran protestants and charged with heresy, fortunately without seriousconsequences. No doubt the fear of further persecution influenced his move in 1552 to Duisburg, where he continued the production of maps, globes and instruments.Mercator's sons and grandsons, were all cartographers and made their contributions in various ways to his atlas. Rumold, in particular, was responsible for the complete edition in 1595. Themap plates were bought in 1604 by Jodocus Hondius who, with his sons, Jodocus II and Henricus, published enlarged editions which dominated the map market for the following twenty tothirty years.

Good impression., (Estimate: $75 - 90)Attractive map of Scotland, including the Shetland Islands. Decorated with a rococo title cartouche. Boundaries outlined in hand colour.From theAtlas moderne ou collection de cartes sur toutes les parties du globe terrestre...Rigobert Bonne (1727-1795 ) was one of the most important cartographers of the late 18thcentury. In 1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as Royal Cartographer to France in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depôt de la Marine. Working in his official capacity Bonnecompiled some of the most detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorativework of the 17th and early 18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities tothose of his predecessor, Bellin. However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, andcompass roses. While mostly focusing on costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24236)

Gerard De Jode, 18 years older than Ortelius, owned many more copper-plates for maps than Ortelius had. Ortelius did not employ highly paidengravers as De Jode had done.De Jode received the ecclesiastical imprimatur in 1573, but it was not until 1579 that the first copies of the Speculum were sold at Plantin's shop, and only very few copies were sold.Now-a-days only a few atlases from the first and only edition are known to exist.

It is probable that Ortelius was responsible for a delay in thepublication of Gerard de Jode's Speculum.

Ortelius did not employ highly paidengravers as De Jode had done.De Jode received the ecclesiastical imprimatur in 1573, but it was not until 1579 that the first copies of the Speculum were sold at Plantin's shop, and only very few copies were sold.Now-a-days only a few atlases from the first and only edition are known to exist. Also single leaves are an utmost rarity.After the death of Gerard in 1591, the business was carried on by his widow and his son Cornelis, who re-issued the Speculum in 1593, most plates were newly engraved.

From the first edition of De Jode's Speculum Orbis Terrarum, the second general atlas of the world, after Ortelius.

Page 91/113

Engraved by Joannes and Lucas van Deutecom.The first edition of De Jode's atlas was not a commercial success, making maps from the first edition very rare. Gerard De Jode was the great rival of Ortelius, both made a living out of selling maps, and it seems not always on good terms. It is probable that Ortelius was responsible for a delay in thepublication of Gerard de Jode's Speculum. Gerard De Jode, 18 years older than Ortelius, owned many more copper-plates for maps than Ortelius had. Ortelius did not employ highly paidengravers as De Jode had done.De Jode received the ecclesiastical imprimatur in 1573, but it was not until 1579 that the first copies of the Speculum were sold at Plantin's shop, and only very few copies were sold.Now-a-days only a few atlases from the first and only edition are known to exist. Also single leaves are an utmost rarity.After the death of Gerard in 1591, the business was carried on by his widow and his son Cornelis, who re-issued the Speculum in 1593, most plates were newly engraved, and thereforemaking those of the first edition extremely rare.

Minimally age-toned.Very fine., (Estimate: $1800 - 2200)FIRST EDITION of this fine example of De Jode's rare map of Switzerland. From the first edition of De Jode's Speculum Orbis Terrarum, the second general atlas of the world, afterOrtelius. Engraved by Joannes and Lucas van Deutecom.The first edition of De Jode's atlas was not a commercial success, making maps from the first edition very rare. Gerard De Jode was the great rival of Ortelius, both made a living out of selling maps, and it seems not always on good terms. It is probable that Ortelius was responsible for a delay in thepublication of Gerard de Jode's Speculum. Gerard De Jode, 18 years older than Ortelius, owned many more copper-plates for maps than Ortelius had. Ortelius did not employ highly paidengravers as De Jode had done.De Jode received the ecclesiastical imprimatur in 1573, but it was not until 1579 that the first copies of the Speculum were sold at Plantin's shop, and only very few copies were sold.Now-a-days only a few atlases from the first and only edition are known to exist. Also single leaves are an utmost rarity.After the death of Gerard in 1591, the business was carried on by his widow and his son Cornelis, who re-issued the Speculum in 1593, most plates were newly engraved, and thereforemaking those of the first edition extremely rare.

Boundaries outlined in hand colour.From theAtlas moderne ou collection de cartes sur toutes les parties du globe terrestre...Rigobert Bonne (1727-1795 ) was one of the most important cartographers of the late 18thcentury. In 1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as Royal Cartographer to France in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depôt de la Marine. Working in his official capacity Bonnecompiled some of the most detailed and accurate maps of the period. Bonne’s work represents an important step in the evolution of the cartographic ideology away from the decorativework of the 17th and early 18th century towards a more detail oriented and practical aesthetic. With regard to the rendering of terrain Bonne maps bear many stylistic similarities tothose of his predecessor, Bellin. However, Bonne maps generally abandon such common 18th century decorative features such as hand coloring, elaborate decorative cartouches, andcompass roses. While mostly focusing on costal regions, the work of Bonne is highly regarded for its detail, historical importance, and overall aesthetic appeal. (Lot number: 24234)

This edition carries the date 1667 and was engraved by R.Cordier Abbauil.Nicolas Sanson was to bring about the rise of French cartography, although the fierce competition of the Dutch would last until the end of the century.

In 1644 the latter had purchased the business of Melchior Tavernier, and helped Sanson with financial support in producing the maps. In 1657Pierre Marriette died, however his son, also named Pierre, co published Les Cartes Générales de toutes les parties du Monde. the following year. It was the first folio French producedworld atlas. (Lot number: 23866)

horse of the Muses.

BIBLE, Leaf on vellum from a manuscript Bible., France, ca.1250, 6.7 x 4.7 inches /17 x 12 cm, A bit smudged around the borders., (Estimate: $275 - 300)Manuscript Bible leaf on vellum, more than 700 years old!! Probably from France.The Bible has, of course, always been the center of Christianity from the beginning, but as a book it was always in parts : to be read at certain times. The priests and monks studied thePsalms, or the Gospels, or the Minor Prophets, for instance. In Paris the birth of the Bible as one book took place, around 1200. There the Bible was put in a single volume, the order andnames of the biblical books were standardized, and the text was checked for accuracy. For the first time the text was divided up into numbered chapters. The name that is attached to this isStephen Langton, he of the Magna Charta!More important for us : the physical appearance of the book changed!

Good condition, (Estimate: $60 - 80)A charming plate from "Histoire Naturelle, Générale et Particulière," Georges Louis Marie Leclerc, comte de Buffon's magnum opus and "the most celebrated treatise on animals everproduced" (Dibner).Comprised of a total of 44 volumes, the encyclopedic Histoire Naturelle, Générale et Particulière revolutionized the study of natural history and was instrumental in both popularizingand elevating the field to the status of a serious discipline. With its comprehensive descriptions, exhaustive theories on botany, geography, zoology, and geology, and innovativeapproach to topics such as species classification and evolution, Buffon's publication was regarded as the seminal work on natural science. Issued in numerous successive editions inmultiple languages, Histoire Naturelle was an overwhelming success that "rivaled Diderot's Encyclopedia in prestige and circulation, and ranks with that Enlightenment classic as anapotheosis of an age which sought to set down and explain everything" (Kestner, p.122). The publication of this monumental work established Buffon's reputation as the chief authorityon natural history and as one of the most prominent figures of the Enlightenment.

Jacques de Sève was a prolific artist, who contributed illustrations to Buffon's Receuil de Vingtquatre Plantes et Fleurs (1772) and completed plates and vignettes for the works ofDuhamel du Monceau, Perrault and others. His son, Jacques Eustache also worked as an artist and engraver. (Lot number: 23380)

In the center Presso l'Autore.Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1778) was an Italian etcher, draughtsman andarchitect. He was born in Venice on the 4th October 1720. In 1740 Piranesi left Venice for Rome and started to draw Roman architecture. He studied etching under Giuseppe Vasi. With the help of Giuseppe Wagner, a successful engraver and publisher of Venice, he returned to Rome, where he had a workshop on the Corso. Most of his life was passed in Rome,etching, writing, publishing, and directing a workshop in which the restoration and sale of antiques played a considerable part.Although perhaps Piranesi’s most discussed etchings are those of his visionary Prison series (Carceri), his Views of Rome (Vedute di Roma), produced as single prints between 1748and 1778, are his best-known mature works. Comprising 135 large-scale etchings of the buildings of classical and post-classical Rome, these images contributed considerably to thecity’s fame and to the rise of Neoclassicism in art, architecture, and interior design in the second half of the eighteenth century. Piranesi’s unparalleled accuracy of depiction, hispersonal expression of the structures’ noble simplicity and calm grandeur (in the words of the art historian Johann J. Winckelmann), and his technical mastery made these prints someof the most original and impressive representations of architecture to be found in Western art.The present print appears to be from the Paris edition of 1800–1807.Following Piranesi’s death in 1778, his children carried on his publications in Rome until 1798. Two years later, the artist’s sons moved to Paris, taking with them their father’soriginal copper plates and from their new location reissuing his prints until 1839 when the Camera Apostolica bought the plates.A strong and desirable impression from his most important architectural series.
