1719ABC_48483Amsterdam: David Mortier 1719. Contemporary quarter brown sheepskin sewn on 5 supports with the corresponding raised bands on the spine the title lettered in gold on the spine sprinkled paper sides red sprinkled edges. Royal folio. With a title-page in red and black with an engraved device a portrait of Erasmus in an elaborate cartouche with allegorical figures and 124 engraved architectural and sculptural illustrations on 109 numbered plates 6 double-page 103 full-page. First French edition of Van Campen's famous description of the Amsterdam City Hall the present day Royal Palace with more than a hundred plates of the architectural features and sculptures of the building including ground plans elevations and sections of the interior and exterior. Particularly impressive are the giant plates of the tympana which are more than 160 cm wide when fully unfolded. The work also includes the famous plate of the extraordinary cartographic mosaic floor of the Burgerzaal which shows the zodiac signs that were originally painted on the celestial map in the middle but are now no longer visible on the floor itself due to fading.The City Hall is the most famous and last major work by Jacob van Campen 1595-1657 the greatest Dutch architect of the 17th century. He began work on the design in 1640 and though the building opened in 1655 it was not actually completed until 1665. It was called "the eighth wonder of the world" at the time and is still considered the most important Dutch monument from the 17th century. It was designed to show off Amsterdam's wealth and magnificence. This is especially visible in the Burgerzaal the heart of the building which depicts Amsterdam as the centre of the world. The impressive mosaic floor with a celestial map in the centre and the two maps of both hemispheres of the world on either side symbolises that the world was at Amsterdam's feet. These maps are the largest ever made. They show Abel Tasman's then recent discoveries in Australia and Tasmania. Many discoveries from his second voyage remained otherwise unpublished until the end of the 17th century.The present work is the French edition of Van Campen's Afbeelding van 't stadt huys van Amsterdam 1664. The plates were drawn by Hubert Quiellinus 1619-1687 and Danckert Danckertsz. 1634-1666 and his father after drawings by Jacob Vennekool 17th century and were first published in Quiellinus' Prima et secunda pars praecipuarum . curiae Amstelrodamenis 1655-1663 and Afbeelding van 't stadt huys van Amsterdam in dartigh coopere plaaten . geteeckent door Jacob Vennekool 1661. As such most of the present engravings were published before the building was completed and may therefore reflect Van Campen's plan more closely than the finished building itself. The edges and corners of the boards are scuffed the spine has been rubbed with loss material old restoration at the head and foot of the spine. The text leaves are lightly browned the plates are very clean.l BAL 132; Berlin Kat. 2235; STCN 182312917 5 copies of which 1 incomplete; cf.

The engraving was first published in 1661 and the map shows Tasman's recent discoveries in Australia and Tasmania and depicts California as an island. Many discoveries from his second voyage remained otherwise unpublished until the end of the 17th century. The drawing of the floor was made by Jacob Vennekool who worked closely with Van Campen and since his drawings were first published even before the building was completed they may reflect Van Campen's plan more closely than the finished building itself. They also of course show it before the alterations made at various times in later years.Binding a little worn untrimmed otherwise in good condition.

1780ABC_48891The Netherlands 1780. Late 18th-century gold-tooled brown mottled calf sewn on 5 supports bound by the so-called Acorn-and-Foliage Tool Bindery in Amsterdam Storm van Leeuwen. Both boards show the large gold-tooled monogram of the Amsterdam chamber of the VOC as a centre piece sandwiched between the gold-tooled date Anno 1780 all within a gold-tooled floral frame with floral corner pieces in the inside corners spine gold-tooled in six compartments red sprinkled edges. 4to ca. 19 x 15 cm. Manuscript in French written in black ink on paper in a neat cursive script by one hand. With chapter divisions numbered 39-75 and headings. The text is written upside down in relation to the binding. Most leaves show an identical watermark depicting a lion rampant on a pedestal with Vryheyt in a crowned ring with Pro Patria Eiusque Libertate and the letters CR below which is very close to Heawood 3149 date: 1753. Late 18th-century manuscript copy of a French childrens catechism by the Swiss theologian Jacob Vernet 1698-1789 bound in a remarkable late 18th-century binding originally produced for the Amsterdam Chamber of the Dutch East India Company VOC by the so-called Acorn-and-Foliage Tool Bindery which was active between ca. 1760 and ca. 1784 Storm van Leeuwen.It shows the large monogram of the Amsterdam Chamber of the VOC sandwiched between the date "Anno 1780" on both boards. These bindings were usually commissioned as gifts to persons important to the VOC often containing an almanac for the relevant year but possibly also produced as blank notebooks. The present work comprises chapters 39-49 and 58-75 of Vernet's work which form almost the second half of printed editions. The chapters included in the present work are complete and exactly follow the order of the printed text in the Geneva 1742 edition pp. 75-140 checked using a digital copy with a slightly different spelling and replacing some words. For unclear reasons chapters 50-57 dealing with the fourth through tenth commandment have not been copied and several leaves between the end of chapter 49 and the beginning of chapter 58 have been left blank.Vernets religious text was first published in 1741 under the title Instruction chrétienne ou catechisme familier; avec quelques prières a lusage des petits enfans . In 1742 a revised edition appeared with a slightly different title Instruction crhetienne ! ou catechisme familier. Avec quelques passages de lEcriture Sainte & quelques prières à lusage des petits enfans. Nouvelle edition. Revuë corrigée & augmentée. Both works were printed in Geneva for the Swiss bookseller Emanuel Du Villard Emmanuel Duvillard 1693-1776 and subsequently reprinted several more times until 1769. With the book block showing the remnants of 12 removed leaves probably already removed before the manuscript was finished. Both pastedowns partly detached an old annotation Ao. 44305 in black ink on the lower pastedown some foxing.

Second printing with some corrections after the first printing of the previous year of an early account of Lower California by the Jesuit Jacob Baegert. Baegert lived in Baja California from 1751 to 1768 and spent most of his time at the Mission of San Luis Gonzaga leaving after the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1767. He provides important details on the culture of the Native Americans of the region including the Pericues Guiacuras and Cochiemes. Wagner states that the German Jesuits were especially dissatisfied toward the end of the Jesuit regime in California and Baegert's bitterness is evident in his book: ".it was a land full of ferocious beasts and even more ferocious Indians the soil was poor the water undrinkable and there was no fuel to be had." The fine and important map was made by a fellow Jesuit Ferdinand Consak and is described by Streeter as "most helpful in giving the location of the many Jesuit missions in Lower California. It also shows the route along the west coast of Mexico followed by Baegert in going to California in 1751 and his route out in 1768 after the expulsion of the Jesuits." The two plates apparently not issued with all copies depict male and female Californian Native Americans. Rare. The National Union Catalogue locates only three copies of the second issue. unknown

First edition in English; first printed in Leiden in 1727 as Matheseos universalis elementa. "This work translated into Dutch 1728 and English 1752 sic is of didactic rather than original merit but it was significant for its invitation to mathematicians to elucidate systematically Newton's Universal Arithmetick which 'sGravesande exemplified by his own explanation of two passages from Newton's book. 'sGravesande found the lighthearted treatment of infinitesimals and the infinite in Bernard de Fontenelle's Elemens de la geometrie de l'infini Paris 1727 unacceptable and he maintained his objections in the Journal litteraire against Fontenelle's rejoinder 1730." – DSB V p. 510.

Per Wikipedia Willem Jacob 'S Gravesande 1688 - 1742 Was A Dutch Lawyer And Natural Philosopher Chiefly Remembered For Developing Experimental Demonstrations Of The Laws Of Classical Mechanics. As Professor Of Mathematics Astronomy And Philosophy At Leiden University He Helped To Propagate Isaac Newton's Ideas In Continental Europe. In 1715 'S Gravesande Visited London As Part Of A Dutch Delegation Sent To Welcome The Hanoverian Succession In Great Britain. In London 'S Gravesande Met Both King George I And Isaac Newton And Was Elected A Fellow Of The Royal Society.In 1717 He Became Professor Of Mathematics And Astronomy In Leiden. From That Position He Was Instrumental In Introducing Newton's Work To The Netherlands. 'S Gravesande's Main Scientific Work Is Physices Elementa Mathematica Experimentis Confirmata Sive Introductio Ad Philosophiam Newtonianam "Mathematical Elements Of Natural Philosophy Confirmed By Experiments; Or An Introduction To Newtonian Philosophy" Published In Leiden In 1720. In That Book He Laid The Foundations For The Teaching Of Newtonian Mechanics Through Experimental Demonstrations. He Presented His Work Before Audiences That Included Voltaire And Albrecht Von Haller. The Book Was Soon Translated Into English By John Theophilus Desaguliers Curator Of Experiments For The Royal Society. In 1722 He Published The Results Of A Series Of Experiments In Which Brass Balls Were Dropped From Varying Heights Onto A Soft Clay Surface. He Found That A Ball With Twice The Speed Of Another Would Leave An Indentation Four Times As Deep From Which He Concluded That The Correct Expression For The "Live Force" Of A Body In Motion What Is Modernly Called Its "Kinetic Energy" Is Proportional To Its Mass And The Square Of Its Velocity. <br/> <br/> Lugduni Batavorum Apud Petrum Vander Aa hardcover
