Pianta di Roma antica a proiezione verticale con alzato. Tra i pochi monumenti riprodotti alcuni sono recenti, come il torrione di Niccolò V in Vaticano, la basilica di S. Paolo, la villa di Giulio III (costruita fra 1551-1553). Orientata con il Nord a sinistra.Questa pianta originariamente è inserita, ripiegata, da Bernardo Gamucci nei suoi “Libri quattro dell’antichità della città di Roma raccolte sotto brevità da diversi antichi et moderni scrittori”, prima edizione apparsa a Venezia, appresso Varisco & Compagni, nel 1565.La stessa pianta, con vari errori nei toponimi, con l’aggiunta della cornice decorativa e del testo in latino, si trova inserita anche nell’aggiornamento dell’opera di Johannes Rosinus (Johann Rossfeld) “Antiquitatum Romanorum corpus absolutissimum…” (I edizione 1585) edita da Thomas Dempster, stampata a Ginevra nel 1612 a spese di Samuel Chouët, che conobbe varie edizioni (1613, 1620, 1632, 1645, 1662, 1701, 1743). La pianta edita dal Dempster viene realizzata mediante un nuovo intaglio in legno, arricchito da una bordura ornamentale di stile nordico.Silografia, tracce delle pieghe editoriali, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Rara. Map of ancient Rome; vertical projection with elevation. Among the few monuments reproduced some are recent, such as the tower of Niccolò V in the Vatican, the basilica of S. Paolo, the villa of Giulio III (built between 1551-1553). Oriented with North to the left. This map is originally inserted, folded, by Bernardo Gamucci in his "Libri quattro dell’antichità della città di Roma raccolte sotto brevità da diversi antichi et moderni scrittori”, first edition published in Venice, Varisco & Compagni, in 1565. The same map, with various errors in the toponyms, with the addition of the decorative frame and the Latin text, is also included in the update of the work by Johannes Rosinus (Johann Rossfeld) "Antiquitatum Romanorum corpus absolutissimum ..." (1st edition 1585) published by Thomas Dempster, printed in Geneva in 1612 by Samuel Chouët, who went through various editions (1613, 1620, 1632, 1645, 1662, 1701, 1743). The map printed by Dempster is created by a new wood block, enriched by an ornamental border of Nordic style. Woodcut, traces of editorial folds, in excellent condition. Rare. cfr. Frutaz XVIII, Tav. 35; Scaccia Scarafoni, p. 26, n. 16.
Rarissima pianta prospettica della città, sconosciuta ai principali repertori sulle piante di Roma e pubblicata per la prima volta in Marigliani (2007).Si tratta di una copia della pianta del Munster senza alcun aggiornamento e ritrae la città come si presentava alla fine del '400 attingendo al medesimo prototipo comunemente indicato nel panorama di Mantova a sua volta ripreso da un presunto ma tuttora sconosciuto panorama inciso nella bottega di Francesco Rosselli verso il 1485. Tavola tratta dal rarissimo "Plantz, pourtraitz et descriptions de plusieurs villes et forteresses, tant de l'Europe, Asie, & Afrique, que des Indes, & terres neuves: Leurs fondations, antiquitez, & manieres de vivre: Avec plusieurs cartes generales & particulieres, servans à la Cosmographie, iointes à leurs declarations: deux tables fort amples, l'une des chapitres, & l'autre des matieres contenues en ce present livre. Le tout mis par ordre, region par region, par Antoine du Pinets" stampato a Lione dall’editore Jean d’Ogerolles. L'opera, che contiene 55 tavole silografiche - molte dele quali derivanti da Muenster - include il mondo cordiforme sul modello di Appiano, le mappe di europa e Germania e 18 vedute a doppia pagina delle primcipali città del tempo.La veduta di Roma deriva da quella pubblicata sempre a Lione nel 1552 da Guillaume Guéroult nel "Premier livre des figures et portraitz des villes", edita da Balthazar Arnouellet, da cui d’Ogerolles acquisì parte del fondo tipografico. Pertanto possiamo affermare che questa matrice in legno sia la stessa stampata alcuni anni prima, alla quale furono apportate delle correzioni nella cornice e nel titolo. Xilografia, in perfetto stato di conservazione. Rarissima. A very rare map of Rome, unknown by mostly of the repertoiries. The view depicts the city as it was at the end of the 15th century, drawing on the same prototype commonly indicated in the panorama of Mantua in turn taken from a still unknown panorama engraved in the workshop of Francesco Rosselli around 1485.Work taken from the very rare "Plantz, pourtraitz et descriptions de plusieurs villes et forteresses, tant de l'Europe, Asie, & Afrique, que des Indes, & terres neuves: Leurs fondations, antiquitez, & manieres de vivre: Avec plusieurs cartes generales & particulieres, servans à la Cosmographie, iointes à leurs declarations: deux tables fort amples, l'une des chapitres, & l'autre des matieres contenues en ce present livre. Le tout mis par ordre, region par region, par Antoine du Pinets" printed in Lyon by Jean d’Ogerolles. The work include 55 woodcuts, many after Munster, comprising 3 double-page maps (cordiform world after Apianus, Europe and Germany), 7 half-page maps, 18 double-page views (including Lyon, Bordeaux, Geneva, Frankfurt, Florence, Venice, Rome, Constantinople, Jerusalem, Cusco and others), and 27 illustrations (including Mexico city).The view is inspired to Guillame Guéroult’s "Premier livre des figures et portraitz des villes", published in 1552 by Balthazar Arnouellet. From him, d’Ogerolles bought many plates, therefore we can state that this block had been already used many years before and has then undergone some changes before being reprinted. Woodcut, in excellent condition. Valerio pp. 33/34; C. Marigliani, "Le Piante di Roma delle collezioni private", tav. 18
Tratta da L'isole più famose del mondo (ed. 1620) in cui il Porcacchi (1530-1585) continua idealmente la tradizione iniziata da Cristoforo Buondelmonti con il primo isolario (manoscritto) risalente al 1420, seguito da quelli di Bartolomeo dalli Sonetti, Bordone e Camocio. In quest'opera vengono descritte tutte le isole conosciute al tempo, con la descrizione geografica e fisica, e con la presentazione degli usi e costumi degli abitanti.L'opera è, per la prima volta, pubblicata nel volume L’isole Piu Famose Del Mondo Descritte Da Thomaso Porcacchi Da Castiglione Aretino E Intagliate Da Girolamo Porro Padovan di Tommaso Porcacchi (ca. 1532-1576), umanista e letterato originario di Castiglion Fiorentino.Gli interessi geografici coltivati sin dal Pomponio Mela del 1557 diedero vita nel 1572 al trattato, pubblicato dalla società tra il libraio Simone Galignani e l’incisore padovano Girolamo Porro, che si servirono della tipografia di Giorgio Angelieri (con privilegio di 10 anni concesso il 16 luglio 1572). Secondo Valerio (cfr. Valerio-Spagnolo, Sicilia 1477-1861, La Collezione Spagnolo-Patermo in quattro secoli di Cartografia, 2014, p. 163) il volume sarebbe stampato nell’officina di Domenico e Giovan Battista Guerra. Il volume, in formato in quarto, con dedica di Galignani a don Giovanni d’Austria, presenta le magnifiche tavole calcografiche di Porro (una seconda edizione, cospicuamente accresciuta di testo e tavole, usci nel 1576, poi ancora, postume, nel 1590, 1604, 1605, 1620 e 1686). Nella lettera dedicatoria Porro narra di essere stato il promotore dell’operazione e di aver incaricato Porcacchi di scrivere un libro sulle isole, riservandosene l’illustrazione. Il modello e quello degli “isolari”, sul quale però Porcacchi innesta lo spirito delle corografie antiche, aggiungendo per ciascuna isola una descrizione fisica, storica e culturale. La concezione e molto ampia (sono comprese penisole, grandi isole come l’Inghilterra o interi continenti: l’America Settentrionale), ma nel “Prohemio” Porcacchi fornisce un glossario di termini geografici che testimonia lo sforzo di impiegare in maniera corretta la terminologia della disciplina (cfr. Franco Pignatti, Porcacchi Tommaso, in "Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani" - Volume 85, 2016). Nel testo vi sono mappe di isole incise su mezza pagina, compreso il planisfero – riduzione della carta murale di Camocio del 1567 e la “carta da navigare con le rotte e i venti, di derivazione gastaldina. Incisione in rame posta nella parte superiore del foglio che contiene anche la parte descrittiva, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Charming miniature map of the world on an oval projection, engraved by Girolamo Porro after a larger world map by Camoccio on the Gastaldi prototype. The huge mythical Terra Incognita dominates the Southern Hemisphere. On a full sheet (8.3 x 11.6") of Italian text with decorative capital letter below map and page 193 above. Italian text continues on the verso. A fine impression minor soiling outside the map.Map taken form L’isole Piu Famose Del Mondo Descritte Da Thomaso Porcacchi Da Castiglione Aretino E Intagliate Da Girolamo Porro Padovan by Tommaso Porcacchi (ca. 1532-1576), humanist and scholar from Castiglion Fiorentino. The geographical interests cultivated since Pomponio Mela in 1557 gave life to the treatise published in 1572 by the company between the bookseller Simone Galignani and the Paduan engraver Girolamo Porro, who used the typography of Giorgio Angelieri (with the privilege of 10 years July 1572). The volume, with a dedication by Galignani to Don Giovanni d'Austria, presents the magnificent calcographic plates by Porro (a second edition, conspicuously augmented with text and tables, came out in 1576, then again, posthumously, in 1590, 1604, 1605, 1620 and 1686). In the dedicatory letter Porro tells of having been the promoter of the operation and of having entrusted Porcacchi with writing a book on the islands, reserving the illustration. The model is that of the "isolari", on which however Porcacchi inserts the spirit of ancient chorographies, adding a physical, historical and cultural description for each island. The concept is very broad (including peninsulas, large islands such as England or entire continents: North America), but in the "Prohemio" Porcacchi provides a glossary of geographical terms that testifies to the effort to correctly use the terminology of the discipline (see Franco Pignatti, Porcacchi Tommaso, in "Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani" - Volume 85, 2016). In the text there are maps of islands engraved on half a page, including the planisphere - reduction of the wall map of Camocio of 1567 and the "carta marina”.Copperplate placed at the top of the sheet also including a descriptive part, in very good condition.

Pen, black ink and watercolour on paper (590 x 440 mm), framed in a passe-partout (755 x 580 mm). Large, high quality watercolour of the Natural Bridge in Rockbridge County, Virginia. This natural arch spanning 27 meters was, along with Niagara Falls, one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States in the late 18th and early 19th century. As an old natural wonder in a young country, it played an integral part in the formation of America's national identity and was "certainly a worthwhile side trip for travelers who hoped to experience the sublime quality of the American landscape" (Howat). The sublime aspect is often present when from the 1830s onward artists start depicting the Bridge: as in the present watercolour, where small figures are placed in the foreground to show the massiveness of the 88-meter geological formation. - The view shown in the present watercolour appeared as an engraving in John Howard Hinton's History and topography of the United States (1832) after a drawing made by the American landscape painter William Goodacre (1803-83). The image was widely pirated and imitated and appeared in numerous other publications, including Meyer's Universum in 1837, with a caption identical to the one on the present watercolour. The anonymous artist probably copied the image from the 1837 publication, but made several changes, simplifying most of the foliage but adding the large fern, duplicating the kneeling hunter and adding an extra deer. Interestingly, the engraving shows a tree peering out from behind the bridge, pencilled in outline, but never painted in. - From an Austrian private collection. In very good condition.
