Acquaforte e bulino, 1748, firmata sulla pietra con la scala in basso al centro "Piranesi e Nolli incisero". Celebre pianta di Roma, incisa da Giovanni Battista Nolli e Carlo Nolli, magnificamente arricchita da elementi decorativi incisi da Giovanni Battista Piranesi. La mappa descrive il centro di Roma su una grande quinta dispiegata dal putto in alto a destra. In alto a sinistra un putto sorregge lo stemma del cardinale Alessandro Albani, al quale l'opera è dedicata, come riportato nel cartiglio sottostante. Al lato sinistro, al di sotto del putto reggi stemma, si diparte una legenda con un elenco di centosettanta luoghi d'interesse, palazzi, monumenti e chiese, che prosegue sul bordo destro. In basso al centro, sui ruderi di un piedistallo, è riportato il titolo. Nella parte bassa della composizione si osservano un'immagine speculare della Basilica di San Pietro, la facciata della Basilica di Santa Croce in Gerusalemme di Pietro Passalacqua e Domenico Gregorini, la Fontana di Trevi di Nicola Salvi e la facciata della Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore di Ferdinando Fuga. La pianta è conosciuta come "Pianta piccola" del Nolli; piccola per distinguerla dal celebre grande rilievo, impresso su 12 fogli (più 6 di indice), di cui questa pianta rappresenta la riduzione. È numerata 33-34 perché seguiva, nella pubblicazione completa, i 6 fogli di indice della pianta grande. Il titolo è riportato in basso, entro il piedistallo della colonna traiana. Accanto, entro un frammento architettonico su cui è riportata la "scala in palmi romani d'architettura", la sottoscrizione degli incisori C. Nolli e G.B. Piranesi. La dedica di G.B. Nolli al cardinale Alessandro Albani è datata "Roma il dì primo del 1748". L'indicazione di pubblicazione si trova nel lembo, ripiegato, del cartiglio sul lato destro. Acquaforte, impressa su carta vergata coeva, completa dei margini, leggera e diffusa brunitura, minime abrasioni, per il resto in buono stato di conservazione. Bibliografia Scaccia Scarafoni n. 227; Marigliani, 190; Frutaz CLXIX a-c; Wilton-Ely 1994, n. 1007. Etching and engraving, 1748, signed on stone with scale at bottom center "Piranesi e Nolli incisero". Famous map of Rome, engraved by Giovanni Battista Nolli and Carlo Nolli, beautifully enriched with decorative elements engraved by Giovanni Battista Piranesi. The map depicts the center of Rome on a large backdrop unfolded by the putto in the upper right. On the upper left a putto holds the coat of arms of Cardinal Alessandro Albani, to whom the work is dedicated, as shown in the cartouche below. On the left side, below the putto holding the coat of arms, departs a legend with a list of one hundred and seventy places of interest, palaces, monuments, and churches, which continues on the right border. At the bottom center, on the ruins of a pedestal, is the title. The lower part of the composition shows a mirror image of St. Peter's Basilica, the facade of the Basilica of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme by Pietro Passalacqua and Domenico Gregorini, the Trevi Fountain by Nicola Salvi, and the facade of the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore by Ferdinando Fuga. The map is known as Nolli's "Small Plan"; small to distinguish it from the famous large relief, imprinted on 12 sheets (plus 6 of index), of which this map represents the reduction. It is numbered 33-34 because it followed, in the complete publication, the 6 index sheets of the wall map. The title is given at the bottom, within the pedestal of the Trajan column. Next to it, within an architectural fragment on which is the "scala in palmi romani d'architettura", is the signature of engravers C. Nolli and G.B. Piranesi. G.B. Nolli's dedication to Cardinal Alessandro Albani is dated "Roma il dì primo del 1748." The indication of publication is in the flap, folded, of the cartouche on the right side. Etching, impressed on contemporary laid paper, complete with margins, light and diffuse browning, minimal abrasions, otherwise in good condition.

Celebre pianta topografica di Roma, una rielaborazione, su invenzione di Giovanni Battista Nolli, della pianta xilografica di Leonardo Bufalini raffigurante la città nel 1551. La pianta era venduta insieme a quella grande e piccola del Nolli, di cui costituisce le tavv. 35 e 36. Fu incisa da Franco Monaco e Carlo Nolli, la cui sottoscrizione si legge in basso a sinistra. In alto a sinistra, entro un cartiglio, dedica del Nolli al cardinale Silvio Valenti Gonzaga. Nei due angoli inferiori, sono state inserite le vedutine del Pantheon a sinistra, e dell'Arco di Giano a destra. Orientamento con il nord in alto. Scalimetro in palmi romani. Ai lati, legenda di 307 voci. In basso a destra, le note tipografiche della pianta edita da Leonardo Bufalini nel 1551: "Edita per Mag[ist]r[u]mLeonardum Die XXVI. Men. Maij Anno Domini MDLI"; al centro, la notizia del privilegio e la data: "Romae cum privil. Sum. Pontificis, et Super. permissu anno 1748". Nolli non fece alcun tentativo di migliorare le incongruenze della mappa del Bufalini: gli angoli del Tridente di Piazza del Popolo sono ancora disuguali, e il Circo Massimo ha entrambe le estremità di forma, invece che una sola. Acquaforte e bulino, impressa su carta vergata coeva, con margini, in perfetto stato di conservazione. Bibliografia Frutaz, Le piante di Roma, CLXIX a-c. Famous topographical map of Rome, a reworking, on the invention of Giovanni Battista Nolli, of Leonardo Bufalini's xylographic plan depicting the city in 1551. The plan was sold together with Nolli's large and small plans, of which it constitutes Tables 35 and 36. It was engraved by Franco Monaco and Carlo Nolli, whose signature can be read at lower left. Nolli made no attempt to rectify inconsistencies of the Bufalini map when he prepared the reduced copy. The Popolo trivium still has its unequal angles, and the Circus Maximus is still semicircular at both ends instead of one. He did, however, give greater relief than the original to the densely populated part of the city by shading in the city blocks. This is the same graphical convention he used on his own map. He maintained Bufalini's emphasis on antiquity by copying them exactly as in the original. Indeed he acknowledges this aspect by including views of ancient buildings at the bottom, where the map appears to be scrolled up, so as to reveal the "Colonnacce," a broken aqueduct, and the Pantheon (with Baroque additions) in the lower left corner, and the three ruins of the Forum Boarium in the lower right hand corner: The round Temple of "Mater Matuta," the Arch of Janus (with Medieval additions) and the Temple of "Fortuna Virilis." The map was engraved, as signed, by Franco Monaco and Carlo Nolli. On the upper left, the cartouche with the dedication to the Cardinal Silvio Valenti Gonzaga. Etching with engraving, a fine impression on contemporary laid paper, with margins, perfect condition. Bibliografia Frutaz, Le piante di Roma, CLXIX a-c.

Folio (ca. 410 x 570 to 570 x 820 mm). 22 folded original military maps, 8 of which in colour (scales 1:20,000 - 1:420,000). - Includes 56 ff. of Ottoman Turkish manuscript notes on military history, loosely stored. A rare and substantial set of military maps of the Balkan Wars, issued as rear-pocket matter to accompany the three-volume work "1328-29 Balkan Harbi, Trakya Seferi" (1924-28) by the topographer and military historian Nihat Bey. Never seen at auction; merely three copies could be traced in libraries worldwide (Istanbul, Princeton, and Washington). The maps show the Ottoman military campaigns on the Balkan peninsula against Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, and Montenegro in 1912 and 1913, wars which resulted in the Ottoman Empire losing the bulk of its European territory. - Nihad Bey (1886-1928) of Bursa held the rank of Lieutenant Colonel but is remembered as a scholar rather than a soldier. The first and foremost military historian of the Turkish Republic, he published no fewer than 39 books in which he meticulously evaluated operational mistakes and emphasized lessons to be learned from past wars. - Includes a set of manuscript notes in pencil, presumably taken by one of Nihat Bey's students at the military academy in the course of lectures on early 20th century Ottoman military history. Bey probably incorporated the maps in his lectures, as is suggested by marks and notes found on several map sheets, mostly in blue or red crayon, corresponding to the colours and patterns used in printing eight of the maps. - Small tears and holes to several maps, mostly along the folds. The manuscript notes show traces of stapling. An unusual and important specimen of Turkish military history.
pp. [12], 915, (41) [Index] + Engraved frontis title page (drawn by Joseph Mulder and engraved by Willem de Broen) showing an enormous globe, the author and allegorical figures; Plus + Folding engraved map of the Old World (31 x 42 cm.) - "Orbis Terrarum Veteribus Cogniti Tabula" by Christoph CELLARIUS, showing not only Europe, Africa and Asia, but also Australia; and four woodcut decorated initial letters. Regular title printed in red and black with the Wetstein's engraved whetstone publisher's device. Latin text in roman types, with extensive passages in italic and Greek, and occasional Hebrew and fraktur. 4to. 205 mm. Old damp stain on the first few leaves. The early full leather binding is quite worn. ** The front pastedown bears an early autograph ownership - apparently that of Noel Antoine Pluche (1688-1761), noted French naturalist and writer. Full Title: Nicolai Gurtleri Origines Mundi & in eo Regnorum, Rerumpubl. Populorum; horumque Duces, Migrationes, Dii, Religio, Mores, Instituta, Res gesta, civiles, sacra, bellica. Referuntur omnia ad loca & tempora sua, & ex ipsis fontibus, fereque propriis Historicorum verbis ad modum Historiae Universalis, cum maxime Ecclesiasticae reprasentantur. Cum Indicibus necessariis, iisque locupletissimis. First and only edition of a detailed history of the ancient world, covering and comparing the cultures, religions, governments, (civil and ecclesiastical) legal systems, etc. of societies throughout the Old World. After a brief discussion of the pre-diluvian world, it covers the ancient Middle East, Africa, Asia and Europe country by country or region by region, citing both biblical and classical sources. The Cellarius map appears to be based on the 1664 map of the same title by Johannes Strubius (Shirley 434, in the same projection and showing the same regions, but not including Australia), but its more accurate and up-to-date cartographic data appears to have been taken from one of the world maps in two hemispheres that were common from at least 1658 (Visscher's, Shirley 406). As in those maps, the coast of Australia shows a small break at 30 degrees south latitude. Cellarius (1638-1707) had produced a series of historical maps for his Notitia Orbis Antiqui, first published at Leipzig in 1701, and the present map may be based on one from that book. A detailed ancient history, with an attractive and unusually accurate folding map of the Old World. SCARCE. NCC (5 copies); OCLC WorldCat (7 copies); STCN (1 copy). **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W153
