Incisione a bulino mm 417x290. Bella impressione nel I stato di III, avanti gli indirizzi degli stampatori Salamanca e De Rossi. Dell'incisione, tratta da un disegno di Raffaello conservato a Chatsworth. esiste una replica fedele di Marco Dente da Ravenna (TIB 26/14, 210). Ottima impressione stampata con inchiostrazione brillante e ben contrastata, sebbene lievemente rifilata: la linea di riquadro si intravede in qualche punto. Scena grandiosa e complessa. La fama di Marcantonio (S.Andrea in Argène 1480 - Bologna prima del 1534) fu all'epoca tale che viene così chiamato più spesso che con il cognome. Formatosi nell'ambiente umanistico bolognese, si perfezionò dal niello all'incisione a Venezia (1506), dove tra l'altro traspose a bulino le xilografie della Vita della Vergine di Dürer, e due anni dopo a Firenze, indi a Roma dal 1510, dove fu introdotto nell'ambiente antiquario. Dopo l'incontro con Raffaello, incise e diffuse insieme ai suoi allievi un gran numero di suoi disegni e affreschi (Lucrezia, la Strage degli Innocenti, il Morbetto, il Giudizio di Paride, il "Quos ego" tra le altre), raggiungendo col tratto nuove possibilità di tono e chiaroscuro. Le sue composizioni autonome armonizzano elementi tratti da varî artisti e presentano spesso elementi fantastici, come l'Incendio sul lago, noto come Sogno di Raffaello, e "Lo Stregozzo", che porta la sigla di uno dei suoi allievi, Agostino Veneziano. Incise anche da Giulio Romano (fu coinvolto in uno scandalo di stampe licenziose tratte da suoi disegni) e da B. Bandinelli..

[Figurato Cavalleria-Rarissimo] (cm. 21,5) bella legatura recente in mz. marocchino scuro, angoli, nervi e titolo in oro al dorso.-- cc. 112 nn. Carattere rotondo testo a due colonne, grande xilografia al frontis e 41 vignette nel testo. L' opera termina con "il fine" a carta 112 bianca al verso. Edizione assolutamente rarissima e di difficile identificazione. secondo Iccu, nessuna copia nelle biblioteche italiane; è vagamente ricordata da Graesse, Brunet e Haym. Essling la descrive compiutamente e cita l' unico esemplare conosciuto della biblioteca Melziana, e la data dopo il 1528 mentre Radaeli la ritiene anteriore. La più antica è del 1483 e fino al 1536 si contano ben 14 edizioni, tutte rare o rarissime (Harris "Sanudo" III 34/5). La bella xilografia al frontis, che rappresenta Carlo Magno e i baroni, è tratta dal "Guerino" del 1522. Il poema di argomento cavalleresco, in dieci ottave per pagina, narra la guerra di Troia e da taluni è attribuito al fiorentino Jacopo Carlo. Vecchio piccolo restauro al margine bianco del frontis e all' angolo alto di 11 carte in fine, purtroppo con perdita di molte parole soprattutto alle ultime 5 carte. Antica annotazione manoscritta in basso al frontis intorno all' autore e alle varie edizioni; al verso bianco dell' ultima carta lunga nota manoscritta coeva in 14 righe con chiara grafia. Peraltro esemplare molto bello fresco e nitido di un libro di grande fascino e indiscussa rarità. assolutamente completo.

Dedica dello stampatore ad Alvise Pisani ''procuratore di San Marco, e riformatore dello tudio di Padova''. Ristampa fedele, anche tipograficamente, dell'edizione giolitiana del 1570. I due antichi autori greci (Ditti Candiano o di Creta e Darete di Frigia), secondo la tradizione, avevano partecipato alla guerra di Troia e da testimoni oculari ne avevano riferito in queste loro opere complementari, le quali poi vennero tradotte in latino, rispettivamente da Lucio Settimio (vedi Diz. Bompiani, Opere III, 33) e da Cornelio Nepote. Interessanti in fine le ''Vite di tutti gl'istorici antichi greci'' del Porcacchi. Esemplare fresco e marginoso..

Very faint spotting to top of textblock. Else book is fine. Dustjacket is protected in plastic sleeve. ; In this book Andrew Erskine examines the role and meaning of Troy in the changing relationship between Greeks and Romans, as Rome is transformed from a minor Italian city into a Mediterranean superpower. The book seeks to understand the significance of Rome's Trojan origins for the Greeks by considering the place of Troy and Trojans in Greek culture. It moves beyond the more familiar spheres of art and literature to explore the countless, overlapping, local traditions, the stories that cities told about themselves, a world often neglected by scholars. ; 336 pages

Fine Fine English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (34 x 24 cm). In English. 437 p., color and b/w ills. The treasures of Troia. Translated by Jean D. Carpenter Efe. Edited by Arzu Kahramani Pekin. It has been some 140 years now that actual finds from the ancient city of Troy-that city near the Dardanelles-that Troia around which was spun the famed epic of Homer's Illiad-appeared to accompany and magnify the myth. The finds unearthed there-many representing buried treasures-are today widely scattered, with principal groups, however, now found housed in only (!) eight different museums. The goal of this work is to bring the individual pieces together, to verify their common origin, to consider their purpose, and to place them into an accurate chronological perspective-not only within the strata of the site itself, but throughout the Bronze Age world that helped create them. These objects demonstrate how developed the aesthetic sensibilities of our ancestors living some 4500 years ago really were, and how highly developed the craft of their goldsmiths was at the time. Geographical patterns of influence as well as the import of semiprecious stones and other raw materials stress the far-reaching trade and significance of the Trojans.

New New English Original cloth bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (33 x 25 cm). In English. 391 p., color and b/w ills. Travelogues have the function of a cultural mirror for the places in the period they were written. Being a vivid description of time and space, reflecting the structure of the period in which they were written, gives us the opportunity to look at history from a different perspective. In the past, traveling was an event in itself. Seas, mountains, and deserts were crossed, new places and people were met. Whether the traveler's writings are long or short, from ancient Troia to Troy at the beginning of the 20th century, what is written, drawn, observed, and perceived about the city and region are important documents. This book is a study on the evaluation of Troy interpretations in the works written by 100 important travelers who came to the Troy region, and each exhibited different characteristics from different perspectives. "An attempt to tell the history of journeys as accurately and fully as can be done in a single volume" It draws on a vast primary source material never before greatly available to researchers. It reflects no point of view other than an academic s obligation to be as objective and fair as possible. It is written to be read as a reference source book by anyone from an academic to a high school student and especially by those in between. Rüstam Aslan was born in 1965 in Sivas, Turkey and graduated from the Istanbul University, Dept. of Prehistory, and obtained his PhD. in 2006 in Prehistoric Archaeology from the University of Tubingen (Germany), studying with Prof. Dr. Manfred Korfmann. He then started his academic career at Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University (Turkey) and currently continues to teach at the University as a professor. Since 1988 he has been a member of the excavations team at Troy, and between 2007 and 2011 he directed a survey project on the Troad that focused on recording and mapping the Bronze Age Settlements System around Troy. In 2013, he became Director of the Troy Excavations in northwest Turkey. His recent seminars have dealt with archaeological topography of the Troad and the Archaeology of Troy. He has published over 100 scientific papers and 12 books.
