1608A86AMHKI23W2Amsterdam 1608. Small 4to. Disbound. With a woodcut device on the title-page. 8 pp. A letter from the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II to the Dutch States General dated 19 October 1607 concerning the peace negotiations with Spain with the States General's undated answer in fact from 7 January 1608 and longer than the Emperor's letter. The Emperor notes that King Philip of Spain and his governor in the Netherlands Archduke Albert have already recognized the United Provinces as a "Free Republic" regrets that the negotiations for peace have stalled and implies that the States could do more to facilitate progress. The States General's reply to the Emperor says that King Philip and Archduke Albert have not fully informed him and that the Spanish have continued to attempt to undermine the United Provinces by violence on land and at sea contrary to the agreements reached in Cologne.The pamphlet went through two editions which were issued with all three editions of the Nederlandtsche Bye-Korf between April and August 1608.With minor tears on or near the fold of the outer bifolium not approaching the text and slightly browned otherwise a very good copy.l Asher 26 27 or 28/33; Knuttel 1513; Simoni G 43; Tiele 716; OCLC WorldCat 5 copies. unknown

Very rare first and only edition of a pamphlet containing reflections related to seafaring written by the Dutch minister Johannes Roman d. 1689. He had left his birthplace of Haarlem for Batavia in January 1647. On his journey to the Dutch East Indies on board the East Indiaman Nieu-Enchuysen built in 1636 also known under all spelling variations of Nieuw Enkhuisen he probably wrote the present pamphlet - comprising 15 short texts in which he reflects on topics relevant to those embarking on sea voyages. The present work is dedicated by the publisher Adriaen Roman to the directors of the Enkhuizen chamber of the VOC. A long poem in Dutch has been included at the end of the work on pp. 19-23 titled Ziel-verheffing over de verlossinghe die ons de Heere heeft ghedaen uyt verscheyde stormen ende nood-weder ons op de Spaensche zee over-ghekomen. Midtsgaders dat Hy ons heeft laten ontmoeten een Engelsch schip van de Barbades .The author born in Haarlem as son of the Dutch bookseller and publisher Adriaen Roman 1590-1649 went to Batavia in 1647 where he became a minister of a Malaysian church. He was active as a translator and in 1653 he wrote a manual of the Malay language titled Grondt ofte kort bericht van de Maleysche tale . which was published posthumously in Amsterdam in 1674 and again in 1689.With an extensive manuscript annotation in brown ink on the front pastedown containing biographical details on the author a quote from S. Gille Heringa "Naamlijst van Nederlandsche Dichters" in: Konst en letterbode 1848 part II p. 166.

With allegorical frontispiece featuring a portrait of the dedicatee Cardinal Otthobono and 46 FINELY ENGRAVED COPPERPLATES OF ROMAN ARCHES half of these double-page all mounted on stubs. Cicognara 3608; Brunet I 758 and VI 29473. Slight signs of use to the covers first and last three leaves faintly foxed one- to two-inch light dampstain to bottom corners far from images or text other trivial imperfections but A FINE COPY--internally clean fresh and bright with excellent impressions of the engravings and in a pleasing binding showing virtually no wear.<br/> <br/> This work depicting the triumphal arches of imperial Rome is considered by Cicognara to be "the most beautiful of this genre and classic especially for the magnificence and elegance of the prints which are the masterpiece of Pietro Bartoli." Bartoli 1635-1700 was an antiquary as well as an engraver; he produced engravings of many Roman antiquities and helped to excavate Nero's Domus Aurea the sprawling complex built by the emperor in the middle of Rome after the fire in 64 A.D. had destroyed much of the city. Bellori 1613-96 was an author and antiquarian who served as curator of antiquities for Pope Clement X. He was later librarian and antiquary to Queen Christina of Sweden who also employed Bartoli. Bartoli's illustrations show the Arch of Constantine the Arch of Titus and the Arch of Septimus Severus examining the details of each. J. M. Suarez wrote the text discussing the Arch of Septimus Severus. The vastness of the present volume the very considerable detail of the plates and the richness of the engravings make this a very impressive book. Buagni unknown

Según Salvá en su Catálogo ficha Nº 3595 este libro debió imprimiese para ser regalado o distribuirlo privadamente pues no consta por ninguna parte ni el nombre del librero que lo publicó ni aún el del pueblo donde salió a luz. Por todo esto la rareza de este libro se debe a su escasísima difusión y corta tirada. Catalina asevera que la impresión debe ser de Madrid."y casi tengo la seguridad de que no se imprimió en Alcalá". No obstante es de señalar que al principio del libro justo al final de la carta impresa en que se dedica el libro al Excmo. Sr. Marqués de Mondejar el autor escribe: Mondejar y Julio 20 de 1690. Por esto deduzco que debió de imprimirse en ese año o a más tardar al siguiente de 1691.- RARISIMA OBRA. Palau nº 276605 Salva nº 3595. Las 14 hojas comprendidas entre las pags. 133 a 161 tienen en la esquina superior externa una máncha de óxido que toca un poco al texto y va disminuyendo hasta desaparecer pero no afecta ni a su lectura ni a la textura del papel. También falta un trocito de papel en la esquina inferior externa de la hoja que corresponde a las pags. 275-76 que toca mínimamente al texto de una apostilla marginal impresa. Con 7 notitas de la época manuscritas a tinta en los márgenes externos. El plano posterior restaurado de dos pequeñas faltas de piel que apenas se notan. A PESAR DE LO DICHO QUE ES PRECEPTIVO EL LIBRO SE ENCUENTRA EN MUY BUEN ESTADO. CASTILLA-LEÓN Libro en español Sin editorial hardcover

With a large finely illuminated coat of arms in vivid colours and burnished gold framed by green palm fronds and flanked by angels incorporating distinctive Moor's head motifs. Manuscript on vellum folio c. 240 × 300 mm. Sewn in contemporary limp vellum. 8 leaves. <p><br /> Imperial ennoblement diploma featuring depictions of Black African figures-an unusual and well-documented example of African representation in early modern European aristocratic identity.<br /> <p><p><br /> This lavishly illuminated imperial diploma issued by Emperor Leopold I on 6 May 1668 confirms the noble status of Georg Adam Christoph and Jakob Moren as members of the knightly nobility rittermäßiger Reichs- und erbländischer Adel of the Holy Roman Empire and its Hereditary Lands. It reaffirms earlier ennoblements of the family in 1514 and 1557 and grants the recipients revised arms and the right to use the territorial predicates von oder zu Sunnegg und Morberg following the extinction of the line of their cousin Hieronymus Moren. The present manuscript is an authenticated official copy certified on 4 April 1669.<br /> <p><p><br /> Of particular interest is the large full-page coat of arms likely painted by a professional court illuminator. Richly coloured and heightened with gold the quartered shield includes two fields with black imperial eagles and two with bust-length portraits of dark-skinned men in three-quarter profile adorned with gold earrings and chain necklaces. Above the shield rises a bare-chested crowned Black man holding a red orb in each hand and emerging from a coronet. The rendering is highly individualized and unambiguously emphasizes African phenotypic features. The composition is framed by a laurel cartouche flanked by angels and fruit.<br /> <p><p><br /> The surname Moren or Mor and the heraldic iconography leave little doubt that the family was of Moorish origin-or at least claimed such ancestry as part of its noble identity. While Moor's heads appear elsewhere in European heraldry they are typically stylized emblems representing conquest exoticism or religious symbolism. The Moren arms are distinct: they include multiple prominently placed depictions of Black African men-not as abstract symbols but as individualized and repeated figures in both crest and escutcheon. Their dignified and central presence-together with the family name-suggests an intentional genealogical claim rather than a purely symbolic motif. The route by which the Moren ancestor entered Habsburg service is uncertain but likely occurred via Spain or Italy in the late 15th or early 16th century.<br /> <p><p><br /> The Moren family retained noble status over successive generations with branches in Tyrol Styria Carinthia and Upper Austria and remained listed in official registers of the Austrian nobility into the 20th century. Among their later descendants was Therese von Mor zu Sunnegg und Morberg 1871-1945 a painter trained in Vienna Munich and Paris and active in several artists' associations. The family's heraldic identity-with its explicit visual reference to African ancestry-remained remarkably consistent making this diploma not only a legal instrument of nobility but a rare and compelling record of Black lineage within the early modern European aristocracy.<br /> <p><p><br /> Reference: Genealogisches Taschenbuch der adeligen Häuser Österreichs. 1907.
