Contemporary bookplate on front pastedown. Light toning and minor foxing. Very good. An extremely valuable compilation which gives detailed data including route scenery and other key information about many various parts of Mexico. By piecing together the different itineraries it offers a traveler could basically go anywhere in Mexico and into the U.S. already provided with extremely detailed instructions about the best route and what facilities - such as water grass and shelter - were available every step of the way. A detailed name index listing routes and where they are to be found in the book further enhances the volume's usefulness for travelers be they headed to destinations great or small. Many of the routes described begin in Mexico City; some routes extend into Texas and New Mexico. Among the most interesting are two itineraries concerning California. One describes a journey from La Paz at the far southern end of Baja California to the U.S. border. This is one of the most detailed and expansively described routes in the entire book preserving a wealth of geographic and natural details. Many of the places detailed in this section have either disappeared or been extensively altered. The other journey is along the Sonora Route from Ures to Sonora to the California gold fields. This trip passes through Los Angeles and includes some commentary on the missions in the area.

18566878Mexico City: Jose A. Godoy 1856. First edition. Quarto pp 480 3 errata. A state-by-state guide book for travel throughout Mexico with routes and distances between each city town village ranch etc. The routes described extend into Texas San Antonio and El Paso and New Mexico Albuquerque Bernalillo Santa Fe. Also of note are the routes going from Sonora "al Placer de Oro de la Alta California" i.e. the gold mines of Upper California. This was known as the "Sonora Route" and was traversed by many Mexicans who were among the first to reach the gold fields in 1849 and the early 1850s. It enters the U.S. at the Colorado River and goes through Temecula La Joya then "La Mision vieja se pasa el rio de los Nietos y a la derecha del camino a una legua de distancia esta la mision de San Gabriel opulenta ante su destruccion. Los Angeles: poblacion hoy de los Estados Unidos del Norte." The route then goes through various ranches and follows the "Mission Trail" northward: "La Mision de S. Buenaventura. El rancho de Carpinteria. Sta Barbara presidio: a una milla de distancia esta la mision con una hermosa parroquia y es el obispado. La Mision de Santa Ines. S. Luis Obispo: pasa este camino por un frondoso rio que llaman Arroyo Seco. La Joya: rancho despoblado a la orilla de un rio cubierto de grandes alamedas. La Mision de San Miguel: para llegar a esta se pasa por el rancho que nombran Paso de Robles. La Mision de Soledad. Mision de San Juan.

The notes concerning each place are valuable and in some cases very detailed for instance for Baja Caliornia and Tamaulipas with detailed description of the border town of Matamoros on the "Rio Bravo". Sabin 976: Eberstadt 138-033 "An important guide book giving the routes and mileages with sketches of the country throughout Mexico including Coahuila Sonora and New Mexico."

177020166Rome 1770. Copper engraving on two joined sheets by Ottaviani after drawings by Savorelli and Camporesi printed in light brown coloured ink with contemporary hand-colouring. Neat marginal restoration. A stunning plate from "Logge di Rafaele nel Vaticano": with contemporary colouring of the highest quality from the golden age of the hand-coloured print. The main panel shows Jacob at Luza having a vision of the angels ascending and descending by a ladder which reached from earth to heaven.<br/> <br/>A very fine image from the second part of a work titled "Loggie di Rafaele nel Vaticano" depicting the decorative work executed by Raphael and his assistants between 1518-1519 in the Vatican. They were drawn by Gaetano Savorelli a Roman painter and draughtsman best known for his Raphael drawings and Pietro Camporesi a Roman architect who worked for Pope Clemens XIII and Pius VI on rooms for the Vatican Museum. The first to illustrate the famous frescoes these beautiful plates were probably planned as early as 1760 but were not executed until 1772 to 1776. The plate is remarkable not only as the first important visual record of Raphael's work but also for the quality of the hand-colouring - the work on this image is in our opinion some of the greatest to be produced in Europe during the whole of the eighteenth century: the golden age of the hand-coloured print. They were remarkable not just for their size and magnificent colouring but also because of the influence they had on contemporary taste. The decision was made to "borrow" elements from Raphael's Vatican tapestries and insert them where the original frescoes were in too poor a state to be legible. The finished plates therefore represented an amalgam of design elements presented with a crisp freshness of colour that held enormous appeal and did much to stimulate the taste for the "grotesque" in the Neo-classical period. A year after the death of his principal patron Julius II Raphael succeeded Donato Bramante in 1514 as the official Vatican architect. Having previously adorned the "Stanze" or chambers of Julius on the second floor of the papal apartments in the Vatican palace he was commissioned by Leo X in 1517 to decorate the adjacent Logge. He designed an elaborate cycle of ornamental frescoes for the room's ceiling vaults doors and auxiliary pillars which were executed by his assistants Giulio Romano and Giovanni da Udine. Twelve of the quadrilateral ceiling vaults were adorned with murals of familiar Old Testament scenes and one with a scene from the New Testament while the more decorative frescoes painted on the pilasters by Udine were covered with imaginative compositions of 'grotesque' motifs like foliage fruit and chimerical beasts.<br/> <br/>Cf.
