Orientata con il Nord a destra, la mappa raffigura nel dettaglio la regione compresa tra la valle del Nilo e il Mar Rosso. Dall'Atlas MajorDoppio cartiglio, uno per il titolo e uno per la dedica in francese a "A Monsieur Monsieur Doviat Sgr. de Montreuille, Con.er du Roy, et Maistre Ordinaire en sa Chambre des Comptes Par son Très humble et obéisant Serviteur P. Duval Géographe de sa Maiesté". Johannes Janssonius, figlio dell'editore di Arnhem Jan Janssen, sposò Elisabeth Hondius, figlia di Jodocus Hondius, ad Amsterdam nel 1612. Dopo il suo matrimonio, si stabilì in questa città come libraio ed editore di materiale cartografico. Nel 1618 si stabilì ad Amsterdam accanto alla libreria di Willem Jansz. Blaeu, entrando in una seria competizione. Le sue attività non riguardavano solo la pubblicazione di atlanti e libri, ma anche di mappe singole e un vasto commercio di libri con filiali a Francoforte, Danzica, Stoccolma, Copenaghen, Berlino, Koningsbergen, Ginevra e Lione. Nel 1631 iniziò a pubblicare atlanti insieme a Henricus Hondius. Nei primi anni 1640 Henricus Hondius lasciò l'attività di pubblicazione di atlanti completamente a Janssonius. La concorrenza con Joan Blaeu, figlio e successore di Willem, nella produzione di atlanti spinse Janssonius ad ampliare il suo Atlas Novus finalmente in un'opera di sei volumi, in cui furono inseriti un atlante marino e un atlante del Vecchio Mondo. Dopo la morte di Joannes Janssonius, il negozio e la casa editrice furono continuati dagli eredi sotto la direzione di Johannes van Waesbergen (c. 1616-1681), genero di Joannes Janssonius. Le matrici degli atlanti di Janssonius furono in seguito vendute a Schenk e Valck. Map oriented with north on the right. It presents a colorful and detailed picture of the region between the fertile Nile River valley and the Red Sea. The map is adorned with a strapwork title cartouche with a credit to Pierre du Val. Includes a note in a decorative cartouche: "A Monsieur Monsieur Doviat Sgr. de Montreuille, Con.er du Roy, et Maistre Ordinaire en sa Chambre des Comptes Par son Très humble et obéisant Serviteur P. Duval Géographe de sa Maiesté".Published in Janssonius' Atlas Major. Johannes Janssonius (Arnhem, 1588-1664), son of the Arnhem publisher Jan Janssen, married Elisabeth Hondius, daughter of Jodocus Hondius, in Amsterdam in 1612. After his marriage, he settled down in this town as a bookseller and publisher of cartographic material. In 1618 he established himself in Amsterdam next door to Blaeu’s book shop. He entered into serious competition with Willem Jansz. Blaeu.. His activities not only concerned the publication of atlases and books, but also of single maps and an extensive book trade with branches in Frankfurt, Danzig, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Berlin, Koningsbergen, Geneva, and Lyon. In 1631 he began publishing atlases together with Henricus Hondius. In the early 1640s Henricus Hondius left the atlas publishing business completely to Janssonius. Competition with Joan Blaeu, Willem’s son and successor, in atlas production prompted Janssonius to enlarge his Atlas Novus finally into a work of six volumes, into which a sea atlas and an atlas of the Old World were inserted. After the death of Joannes Janssonius, the shop and publishing firm were continued by the heirs under the direction of Johannes van Waesbergen (c. 1616-1681), son-in-law of Joannes Janssonius. The copperplates from Janssonius’s atlases were afterwards sold to Schenk and Valck. Van der Krogt 1
Splendida carta del Mondo Antico pubblicata nel Parergon, l'atlante di Ortelius dedicato alla geografia antica.La mappa presenta i territori conosciuti fino al 1492, all'interno di una proiezione ovale in cui sono rappresentate le fasce climatiche canonizzate da Tolomeo. Ortelius, inoltre, nella realizzazione del planisfero tiene conto del passo di Strabone (II, 5,6) nel quale sostiene che la terra abitata occupi meno della metà dell'emisfero boreale. Pur con queste premesse, il disegno dell'ecumene è moderno, come mostrano i profili del golfo di Guinea, del Madagascar e della penisola indocinese.Il planisfero è circondato da una ricca cornice decorativa nei cui angoli sono contenute le mappe, di formato circolare, dei quattro continenti. Tratta dal Parergon, il primo atlante storico mai pubblicato. Fu inizialmente concepito da Ortelius come appendice del suo Theatrum Orbis Terrarum ma visto il notevole successo di queste carte storiche divenne in seguito un lavoro indipendente e rimase la fonte principale di tutti i lavori simili per tutto il XVII secolo. Come sottolinea Koeman “il Parergon deve essere considerato come lavoro personale di Ortelius. Per quest'opera, infatti, diversamente dal Theatrum, non copiò le mappe di altri cartografi, ma ne disegnò lui stesso di nuove ed originali…prese luoghi, regioni e territori delle civiltà classiche illustrandone e spiegandone la storia, una materia molto vicina al suo cuore. Le mappe e le lastre del Parergon devono essere valutate come le più importanti incisioni che rappresentano il diffuso interesse per la geografia classica nel XVI secolo”. Il Theatrum Orbis Terrarum e che è considerato il primo vero “atlante” moderno. L’opera fu pubblicata in 7 lingue e 36 edizioni, per il quale – nel 1570 - Ortelius ottenne il privilegio, ovvero una sorta di diritto d'autore che impediva ad altri cartografi di pubblicare i propri lavori. Il Theatrum rappresentava il lavoro più avanzato del lavoro della descrizione cartografica. L’Ortelius vi raccolse il sapere geografico e cartografico del suo tempo, proponendo in 147 spettacolari tavole incise l’immagine più fedele del mondo allora conosciuto e, in alcune straordinarie “carte storiche”, regioni e itinerari tratti dalla letteratura, dalla mitologia, dalla tradizione. Incisione su rame, finemente acquarellata, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Esemplare dall'edizione tedesca pubblicata nel 1602. This interesting map presents the regions of the earth that were known in classic times within a large oval projection showing the relative size of the now-known world. The map extends into Asia as far east as Sumatra and south to Madagascar and the Mountains of the Moon in Africa. The climate zones are shown as Zona frigida, temperata, and torrida, with the Zona frigida noted as being uninhabitable. An ornate border surrounds the map and incorporates four small insets: Europe, Asia, Africa and America representing the "modern" world. Map taken from the Parergon, the first historical atlas ever published. It was initially conceived by Ortelius as an appendix to his Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, but given the considerable success of these historical maps it later became an independent work and remained the main source of all similar works throughout the seventeenth century. Koeman wrote: "This atlas of ancient geography must be regarded as a personal work of Ortelius. For this work he did not, as in the Theatrum, copy other people's maps but drew the originals himself... He took many places and regions from the lands of classical civilization to illustrate and clarify their history, a subject very close to his heart... The maps and plates of the Parergon have to be evaluated as the most outstanding engravings depicting the wide-spread interest in classical geography in the 16th century." The Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, which is considered the first true modern "Atlas". The work was published in 7 languages and 36 editions, for which - in 1570 - Ortelius obtained the privilege, a kind of copyright that prevented other cartographers from publishing his works. The Theatrum represented the most advanced work of cartographic description. Ortelius collected in it the geographical and cartographic knowledge of his time, proposing in 147 spectacular engraved plates the most faithful image of the world then known and, in some extraordinary "historical maps", regions and routes taken from literature, mythology, tradition. From the 1602 German edition of the Parergon. Copperplate, with fine colouring, good conditions. Shirley #176; Van den Broecke #186.

1410 x 1755 mm. Grenzkolorierte Kupferstichkarte in 9 Blättern, Maßstab ca. 1:900.000. Jedes Blatt in 12 Segmenten auf Leinen aufgezogen. Blatt 9 mit dem Plan "Wien mit seinen Umgebungen". Gefaltet in zeitgenöss. marmoriertem Umschlag und Originalschuber des Verlags mit goldgepr. Rückenschildchen "Kaiserthum Oesterreich". Letzte Auflage dieser ausgezeichneten, erstmals 1809 erschienenen monumentalen Gesamtkarte der Habsburgermonarchie - der "bis dahin weitaus größte[n] gedruckte[n] Karte der Österreichischen Monarchie" (Austria Picta). In dieser Auflage neu dargestellt sind die "im Münchner Vertrag festgelegten Grenzen zwischen Bayern und Österreich" (Dörflinger, S. 607). In ihrem grundlegenden Umfang noch 1805 entworfen, wurde die Karte vom Pressburger Frieden am 26. Dezember 1805 und dann von einem langen Streit zwischen Kartograph und Verlag überholt, sodass die neun Blätter "jenen Raum dar[stellen], der bis Dezember 1805 zur Österreichischen Monarchie gehörte - also auch Tirol und Vorarlberg, Venetien und Dalmatien sowie die Vorlande, wobei sich diese Territorien noch zusätzlich durch ihre dichte Topographie von den angrenzenden nicht-österreichischen Gebieten optisch deutlich abheben [...] Von ganz ausgezeichneter Qualität [ist] der Stich von Joseph Stöber, der die stellenweise Überfüllung mit Einzelheiten weitgehend mildert. Den Großteil von Blatt 9 nimmt die Nebenkarte 'Wien mit seinen Umgebungen' (Maßstab ca. 1:90.000) ein, die das Gebiet zwischen Korneuburg und Vöslau/Ebreichsdorf bzw. zwischen Langenlebarn/Breitenfurt und Fischamend/Ebergassing - also vor allem den südlichen und südöstlichen Teil des Umlandes von Wien - abbildet" (ebda., S. 605f.). - Umschlag und Schuber gering berieben. Vereinzelt kleine Randläsuren an den einzelnen Segmenten. Insgesamt wohlerhalten. Dörflinger 603ff., KIC 31. Vgl. Austria Picta 34.4 (Aufl. von 1811).
