1660710681660. A Paris chez N. Langlois rue St. Jacques à la Victoire Avec privilege 1660-1670. Kupferstich. Plattengrösse 217 x 310 mm. Blattgrösse 290 x 358 mm. Weitwinklige Außenansicht des Hôpital Saint-Louis mit den langen Krankensaal-Flügeln und der zentralen Kapelle im historischen Quadrilater-Grundriss. Der Hospitalbau erscheint als geschlossener klar gegliederter Komplex mit Hofstruktur in damals noch peripherer Lage vor der Stadt. Im Vordergrund Straße mit Passanten und Wagen die den lebendigen Gebrauch des Hospitals als Seuchen- und Armenanstalt andeuten. Noch ohne Gebäude-Nummerierung und ohne ausführliche Legende. Medizinhistorisch wichtiges ikonographisches Zeugnis des 1607-1611 unter Heinrich IV. errichteten Pest- und Quarantänehospitals Saint-Louis. Die extramurale Lage der große Maßstab und die regelmäßige Anlage veranschaulichen frühneuzeitliche Strategien der räumlichen Isolierung und Belüftung für Pest- und Epidemiekranke. Gabriel Perelle 1604-1677 war ein französischer Zeichner und Stecher Schüler u. a. von Daniel Rabel und Simon Vouet der sich auf Landschaften und topographische Ansichten der Region Paris insbesondere Schlösser Gärten und städtische Ensembles spezialisierte. Er gründete eine Werkstatt in der seine Söhne Nicolas 1625-1692 und Adam 1638/1640-1695 mitarbeiteten und zahlreiche Platten nach seinen und eigenen Vorlagen ausführten. Adam Perelle ist vor allem für seine Architekturbedarstellungen und Stadtveduten bekannt; ein großer Teil seines Ouvres gehört zu Serien von Ansichten der "plus beaux bâtiments" Frankreichs und der Pariser Umgebung. Nicolas I. Langlois Paris 1640-1703 war ein bedeutender Pariser Verleger von Kupferstichen der ab etwa 1660 von der Adresse "A Paris chez N. Langlois rue St-Jacques à la Victoire" aus vor allem Serien von Architektur- Landschafts- und Dekorationsstichen edierte. Unter seiner Adresse erschienen zahlreiche Blätter der Perelle-Werkstatt darunter Pariser Veduten und Folgen wie die "vues" und "veües des belles maisons de France" die später teilweise bei Jean Mariette neu aufgelegt wurden. unknown

In 1634 Frederick III of Holstein-Gottorp present day Denmark and Germany sent an expedition with Adam Olearus 1603-1671 as its secretary from Hamburg to Moscow in an attempt to establish commercial relations with Russia which failed. Undeterred Frederick sent a similar expedition to Persia in 1636 also with Adam Olearius as secretary The first part of this work is the first English translation by John Davies of Olearius' detailed account of those expeditions in its second edition. The second part contains the account by German adventurer Johan Albrecht de Mandelslo 1616-1644 of his departure from Frederick's mission to Persia and continuation on to India China Japan and Formosa also translated by Davies from Olearius' posthumous editing and publication of that travelogue. Though trade missions generally make for dull reading Olearius' narrative is quite engaging with details and anecdotes about the people and places they encountered. Typical of his observations is one about the Russians: "There is no place in the World where drunkenness is more common than in Muscovy . . . Ecclesiastics and laicks Men and Women Old and Young will drink strong water at any time before at and after their meals . . . will drink of it till they lye down and many times die in the place." From the library of John Evelyn with the Evelyn book label "JE" on the front paste-down. Early marginal notes in Mandelslo's adventures though not in Evelyn's hand alas.

16853659Paris: distribuë par l'Auteur en l'Hostel des Manufactures des Gobelins et en la rue St.Jacques 1685. Copper engraving on two joined sheets by A.F. Baudouin with the figures by R. Bonnart after Van der Meulen. Titled in French and Latin. A fine view of the fortified town of Calais and its environs recalling king Louis XIV's gradual acquisition of territory on the Channel coast from 1667 onwards.<br/> <br/> This excellent panorama shows Calais as seen from the landward side looking across to the ramparts of the fortifications surrounding the town to the roofs of the town itself and then beyond to the sea. In the fore and mid-ground the French army of King Louis XIV moves forward towards the town this scene enlivened by Van der Meulen's portrayal of the stormy conditions: hats blow off cloaks are wrapped around peoples' heads foot soldiers lean into the wind. This sort of detail supports the statement in the imprint that the present scene was painted from life by Van der Meulen. Adam Frans Van der Meulen was a landscape and genre painter who specialized in battle scenes and his early works i.e. those from the years before he left for Paris the earliest dated work is from 1653 are mainly cavalry skirmishes in the manner of his teacher Pieter Snayer. After he moved to Paris the character of his work changed and became more ceremonial. He now specialized in large topographical views and military scenes and in royal journeys processions and receptions. His most important task was to accompany the king on his many campaigns during the wars of conquest waged in the 1660s and 1670s against inter alia the Spanish Netherlands and as Peintre de conquêtes du roi officially to portray the memorable sieges battles and conquests of le Roi Soleil in large-scale canvases or cartoons which were later transformed into tapestries. Van der Meulen was born in Brussels where he was baptised in 1632. In 1646 he was apprenticed to the battle painter Pieter Snayers. In 1651 he became a master in the Guild of St Luke in Brussels but by 1663 he had moved to Paris where he joined a group of Netherlandish artists associated with the French painter Charles Le Brun 1619-90 who not only was Premier peintre du roi but also from 1663 director of the Parisian tapestry manufactory Manufacture royale des Gobelins. Van der Meulen quickly became a protégé of Le Brun and on his recommendation Van der Meulen was appointed court painter to Louis XIV on 1 April 1664 and at the same time became Le Brun's collaborator in the tapestry manufactory. In 1673 he was accepted as a member of the Académie royale de Peinture et de Sculpture without any obligation to submit a morceau de réception; in 1681 he became conseiller and in 1686 premier conseiller. He died as a highly esteemed artist in the Hôtel des Gobelins 15 October 1690. distribuë par l'Auteur, en l'Hostel des Manufactures des Gobelins, et en la rue St.Jacques unknown

A striking contemporary view of Gray in Franche-Comte by the celebrated court painter Van der Meulen.<br/> <br/> This fine view shows the town of Gray in Franche-Comte built on the banks of the Saône River.
