Pianta tratta dalla monumentale opera di Felix Benoist Rome dans sa grandeur. Vues, monument ancient et modernes stampata a Parigi in 3 volumi, da Henri Charpentier, nel 1870. La pubblicazione, illustrata da 100 litografie, fu preceduta da una campagna di disegni preparatori, a far data dal 1864 sino al 1869, eseguita soprattutto da Félix Benoist e in parte da Philippe Benoist. Alla vigilia del Concilio Ecumenico Vaticano I, l’11 agosto 1869, Pio IX decretava la realizzazione di una Esposizione romana delle opere d’ogni arte eseguite per il culto cattolico, che venne inaugurata, il 17 febbraio 1870, nel chiostro della Certosa di Santa Maria degli Angeli. In quell’occasione, vennero presentati i tre volumi in folio Rome dans sa grandeur. I volumi, rilegati in modo sfarzoso, con impresso al centro in oro, lo stemma di Pio IX, sono suddivisi in tre sezioni. Il primo volume tratta di Roma antica, il secondo, di Roma cristiana, ed il terzo, dei monumenti e le realizzazioni della Roma moderna. Una visione preziosa della Roma papale alla vigilia della profonda trasformazione di Roma in capitale dell’Italia unita. Un documento che evidenzia la notevole impronta lasciata da Pio IX nella Città Eterna. L’opera rappresenta il capolavoro dell’artista francese, dove ogni veduta è realizzata in litografia tinta, processo ottenuto usando un diverso numero di pietre. Il risultato è un’opera di grande effetto, tanto da porre il Benoist tra la schiera dei più grandi artisti di interni e vedute del suo tempo. Litografia tinta, finemente colorata a mano, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Map taken from the monumental work of Felix Benoist Rome dans sa grandeur. Vues, monument ancient et modernes printed in Paris in 3 volumes, by Henri Charpentier, in 1870. The publication, illustrated by 100 lithographs, was preceded by a campaign of preparatory drawings, from 1864 to 1869, executed mainly by Felix Benoist and partly by Philippe Benoist. On the eve of the First Vatican Ecumenical Council, August 11, 1869, Pius IX decreed the creation of the Esposizione romana delle opere d’ogni arte eseguite per il culto cattolico (a Roman Exhibition of the works of art created for Catholic worship), which was inaugurated on February 17, 1870, in the cloister of the Charterhouse of Santa Maria degli Angeli. On that occasion, the three volumes in folio Rome dans sa grandeur were presented. The volumes, magnificently bound, with the coat of arms of Pius IX stamped in gold in the center, are divided into three sections. The first volume deals with ancient Rome, the second with “Christian” Rome, and the third with the monuments and achievements of modern Rome. A precious vision of papal Rome on the eve of the profound transformation of Rome into the capital of united Italy. A document that highlights the remarkable imprint left by Pius IX in the Eternal City. The work represents the masterpiece of the French artist, where each view is made in tinted lithography, a process achieved by using a different number of stones. The result is a work of great effect, so much so as to place Benoist among the ranks of the greatest artists of interiors and views of his time. Tinted lithograph, finely hand-colored, in excellent condition.

Rara pianta archeologica della città, basata sul modello della cosiddetta pianta della guerra di Napoli del 1557 - incisa da Nicolas Beatrizet per l'editore Antonio Lafrery - orientata con il nord a destra. Sono riportate le nuove fortificazioni volute da papa Paolo IV. Dal punto di vista archeologico, date anche le dimensioni ridotte dell’opera, risulta assai sintetica."Si tratta di una frettolosa copia della precedente pianta di Paolo Forlani ed è riconducibile alla tipografia di Ferrando Bertelli. Oltre a comparire in alcune raccolte cinquecentesche di grande formato (Biblioteca Estense e Monaco di Baviera) la pianta si trova infatti inclusa nella raccolta Civitatum aliquot insigniorum et locorum, magis munitorum exacta delineatio: cum additione aliquot insularum principalium, edita da Ferrando Bertelli a Venezia nel 1568" (cfr.

Rare archaeological map of the city, based on the model of the so-called map of the war of Naples of 1557 - engraved by Nicolas Beatrizet for the publisher Antonio Lafrery - oriented with the north to the right. The new fortifications commissioned by Pope Paul IV are reported. From the archaeological point of view, given the small size of the work, it is very synthetic."It is a copy of the previous map by Paolo Forlani and is referable to the printing house of Ferrando Bertelli. In addition to appearing in some large sixteenth-century collections (Biblioteca Estense and Strabo Atlas of Munich) the map is also included in the collection "Civitatum aliquot insigniorum et locorum, magis munitorum exacta delineatio: cum additione aliquot insularum principalium", published by Ferrando Bertelli in Venice in 1568".

Pubblicata per la prima volta nel "Teatro d'Italia" di Pietro Bertelli nel 1599. Questo esemplare è tratto dall'opera Universus terrarum orbis scriptorum calamo delineatus ... qui de Europae, Asiae, Africae, & Americae regnis, provinciis, populis, civitatibus.... pubblicata a Padova nel 1713, presso Matteo Cadorin, da Raffaello Savonarola, sotto lo pseudonimo di Lasor a Varea (o Varela). L'opera era una sorta di enciclopedia che conteneva notizie sulle varie località del mondo disposte in ordine alfabetico, arricchita da mappe e vedute di tutto il mondo che appartengono a celebri raccolte cartografiche del passato – Bertelli, Valegio, Camocio, Bonifacio, Nelli, Magini e altri – del quale probabilmente l’editore Cadorin era in possesso delle matrici originali. Acquaforte, testo latino nella parte superiore, inferiore e sul verso del foglio, dove sono presenti anche tre figure con abiti dell'epoca, in ottimo stato di conservazione. This example is taken from the work Universus terrarum orbis scriptorum calamo delineatus ... qui de Europae, Asiae, Africae, & Americae regnis, provinciis, populis, civitatibus.... published in Padua in 1713, at Matteo Cadorin, by Raffaello Savonarola, under the pseudonym of Lasor a Varea (or Varela). The work was a kind of encyclopedia containing news about the various localities of the world arranged in alphabetical order, enriched with maps and views of the whole world belonging to famous cartographic collections of the past-Bertelli, Valegio, Camocio, Bonifacio, Nelli, Magini, and others-of which the publisher Cadorin probably possessed the original plates. Copper engraving, in excellent condition.

It was based on the Low German Bible printed at Madeburg in 1554, which was translated by J. Bugenhagen from Luther's Bible of 1545. It was published for the use of his brother Mennonites in 1560 by N. Biestkens van Diest in Emden, and became famous as the Biestkens Bible. Darlow and Moule 'Historical Catalogue of the Printed Editions of the Holy Scripture' No. 3311 says that this edition is "A revision of the 'Biestkens Bible' prepared on the basis of Luther's by Adolf Visscher of the Lutheran Church at Amsterdam. This became the standard Bible of the Dutch Lutherans." It is curious to note that it is the only Dutch Bible ever published by van Baardt. Darlow & Moule 3311. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! Scarce. W108
