Carta storica raffigurante i territori dell'Impero di Alessandro Magno intorno al 323 a.C. Tratta dall’ Atlante geografico. Corredato di notizie relative alla geografia fisica politica, ed in generale alla statistica delle varie regioni del Globo. Compilato ed eseguito in litografia per cura e sotto la direzione di Benedetto Marzolla edito a Napoli nel 1858. Marzolla, autore di importanti atlanti sulle provincie del Regno di Napoli, è anche autore di diverse carte sulle Circoscrizioni Ecclesiastiche nel Regno delle Due Sicilie, pubblicate postume, nello stesso anno della morte (1858) a Napoli nello Stabilimento Geografico diretto da Luigi Manzella. Benedetto Marzolla fu disegnatore topografo e litografo; geografo e cartografo; membro della Commissione di statistica presso il Ministero dell'Interno. Personaggio di grandissimo rilievo nella cartografia napoletana ed italiana del XIX secolo, Marzolla ottenne in vita pubblici riconoscimenti ed attestati per la produzione cartografica di altissima qualità. La sua notorietà si è lentamente dissolta dopo la morte; va tuttavia osservato che solo la mancanza di uno spiccato coinvolgimento politico in senso risorgimentale e di una valenza letteraria nella sua opera non lo hanno reso famoso come i contemporanei Francesco Costantino Marmocchi (1805-1858) e Attilio Zuccagni-Orlandini (1783-1872), con i quali può certamente confrontarsi. I progetti culturali didattici e editoriali di Marzolla furono e rimangono di straordinaria modernità; egli inventò, è il caso di dire, un nuovo modo di intendere e di disegnare la carta geografica, fornendo una visione assolutamente originale della comunicazione dei dati geografici attraverso la combinazione di testo e immagine. Con tale operazione, egli riuscì a fondere in un'unica opera, storia, geografia, economia, statistica e cartografia, raggiungendo un equilibrio grafico di rara efficacia (cfr. V. Valerio, Benedetto Marzolla Brindisino, Geografo e Cartografo dell'800 Europeo, Brindisi 2008). Bell’esemplare con coloritura coeva dei contorni, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Bibliografia V. Valerio, Benedetto Marzolla Brindisino, Geografo e Cartografo dell’800 Europeo (2008). Historical map depicting the territories of Alexander the Great's empire, around 323 BC. Taken from the Atlante geografico. Corredato di notizie relative alla geografia fisica politica, ed in generale alla statistica delle varie regioni del Globo. Compilato ed eseguito in litografia per cura e sotto la direzione di Benedetto Marzolla published in Naples in 1858. Marzolla, author of important atlases on the provinces of the Kingdom of Naples, is also the author of several maps on the Ecclesiastical Circumscriptions in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, published posthumously in the same year of his death (1858) in Naples in the Stabilimento Geografico directed by Luigi Manzella. Benedetto Marzolla was draftsman topographer and lithographer, geographer and cartographer. Character of great importance in the Neapolitan and Italian cartography of the nineteenth century, Marzolla obtained during his life public recognition and certificates for the production of high quality cartography. His notoriety slowly faded after his death; it should be noted, however, that only the lack of a strong political involvement in the sense of the Risorgimento and of a literary value in his work did not make him as famous as his contemporaries Francesco Costantino Marmocchi (1805-1858) and Attilio Zuccagni-Orlandini (1783-1872), with whom he can certainly compare himself. Marzolla's cultural, didactic and editorial projects were, and remain, extraordinarily modern; he invented a new way of understanding and drawing maps, providing an absolutely original vision of the communication of geographical data through the combination of text and image. With this operation, he was able to merge in a single work, history, geography, economics, statistics and cartography, achieving a graphic balance of rare effectiveness. Benedetto Marzolla is famous for being among the most important cartographers of the XIX century, for being the one to print geographic maps using high quality lithographies.His Atlante Geografico, made of 58 maps, presents finely sketched works. Six maps depict North America, among them famous map of gold diggers in California, deriving from Hippolite Ferry. Extremely relevant are also the maps of Antarctic, South Africa with the plan of Cape Town and those about Australia.Though the maps are dated between 1843 and 1856, this 1858 edition, printed in Naples at the Stabilimento Geografico Strada San Carlo (founded by Marzolla himself), represents the final version of his atlas, the last one before his death. A posthumous edition will be published in 1865.The atlas is pretty rare, is not actually listed in Phillips, British Library e OCLC. Beautiful specimen with contemporary coloring of the contours, in excellent condition. Bibliografia V. Valerio, Benedetto Marzolla Brindisino, Geografo e Cartografo dell’800 Europeo (2008).

Opera per la prima volta pubblicata nel rarissimo "Giardino del Mondo dove si vede sculpite le citta principale ditalia con le eccelse fabriche antiche e chiese palazzi guglie colonne giardini e fonatene et archi trionfali di Roma" stampato a Roma [s.d. ma circa 1625-30].Si tratta di di un volume "di piccolo formato e privo di indice, è dedicato a Federico Cesi, dondatore dell'Accademia dei Lincei, morto nel 1630. Nella dedica, che compare dopoil titolo figurato, l'autore descrive i motivi che lo hanno spinto ad allestire l'opera" (cfr. Bellucci-Valerio, Piante e vedute di Napoli dal 1600 al 1699, p. 76).Le opere, di piccolo formato, sono una derivazione di quelle di Francesco Valegio contenute in "Descrizione La Raccolta di le piu illustri et famose citta di tutto il mondo" della fine del '500.I rami del Marcucci confluirono nella più celebre tipografia De Rossi, e ristampate nella "Raccolta delle principali città d’Italia intagliate con tutte le contrade, e palazzi di esse" edita a Roma nel 1643 da Giovambattista de Rossi. Una successiva ristampa della stessa è nota a cura di Carlo Losi nel 1773. La pianta, molto rara, viene per la prima volta descritta da Scaccia Scarafoni, che erroneamente ne fornisce l'errata datazione del 1547. Marigliani, nel datarla erroneamente al 1595 circa, ne fornisce la prima accurata descrizione: "è una copia della pianta di Valegio realizzata nell'ultimo decennio del '500 con lievissime differenze solo nella raffigurazione di San Pietro, di cui si vedono le cupole laterali, Santa Maria Maggiore ed il Colosseo più correttamente raffigurato con una parte dell'emiciclo esterno mancante"(cfr. Marigliani p. 164).Incisione in rame, in perfette condizioni. Rarissima. Bibliografia Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): n. 132; Frutaz (1960) n. 139 (nota); Marigliani (2007): p. 164, n. 65. A small and very rare map of Rome, for the first time published in the very rare "Giardino del Mondo dove si vede sculpite le citta principale ditalia con le eccelse fabriche antiche e chiese palazzi guglie colonne giardini e fonatene et archi trionfali di Roma" printed in Rome [s.d. but about 1625-30]. It is a volume of small format and without index, dedicated to Federico Cesi, founder of the Accademia dei Lincei, who died in 1630. In the dedication, which appears after the illustrated title, the author describes the reasons that pushed to prepare the work (see Bellucci-Valerio, Piante e vedute di Napoli dal 1600 al 1699, p. 76). The small-sized works are a derivation of those by Francesco Valegio contained in "Descrizione La Raccolta di le piu illustri et famose citta di tutto il mondo" from the end of the 16th century. Marcucci's platess flowed into the most famous De Rossi typography, and reprinted in the "Raccolta delle principali città d’Italia intagliate con tutte le contrade, e palazzi di esse" published in Rome in 1643 by Giovambattista de Rossi. A subsequent reprint of the same is known by Carlo Losi in 1773. The very rare map is described for the first time by Scaccia Scarafoni, who erroneously gives the wrong date of 1547. Marigliani, erroneously dating it to about 1595, provides the first accurate description: "it is a copy of the map of Valegio built in the last decade of the 16th century with very slight differences only in the depiction of St. Peter, of which you can see the side domes, Santa Maria Maggiore and the Colosseum more correctly depicted with a part of the external hemicycle missing "(see Marigliani p . 164). Copper engraving, in perfect condition. Extremely rare. Bibliografia Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): n. 132; Frutaz (1960) n. 139 (nota); Marigliani (2007): p. 164, n. 65.
